LSVT-LOUD therapy for voice and speech in Parkinson's disease
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether LSVT-LOUD, a speech therapy program, can improve voice, speech, and quality of life in people with Parkinson's disease who have voice or speech problems. Participants must be native Turkish speakers, aged 40-80, with mild to moderate Parkinson's.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how deep brain stimulation affects speech in people with Parkinson's disease or essential tremor. It tests whether the stimulation changes the way you say sequences of sounds.
This study tests a new speech therapy approach for people with Parkinson's disease who have mild to moderate speech problems. It uses a computer program that listens to your speech and helps you practice speaking more clearly.
This study looks at how people with Parkinson's disease learn and produce speech. It may help researchers understand how Parkinson's affects talking and how to improve communication.
This trial studies a brain stimulation approach for a specific voice disorder that can include tremor. It aims to better understand how well the treatment works and how to use it more effectively while carefully checking safety with awake procedures.
This trial tests how people adapt their speech when they hear their own voice altered. It may help understand speech control in healthy people and those with Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for essential tremor or Parkinson's disease.
This research study tests special amplification devices designed to help people with Parkinson disease or related conditions speak more clearly. The goal is to improve how well others can understand your speech.
