Evaluation of Voice Quality by Vocal Analysis in Patients Who Underwent Open Heart Surgery

Abstract

Objective: In this study, we aimed to reveal the effect of open heart surgeries on acoustic sound quality and vocal range by using computer aided analysis method. Materials and Methods: Preoperative objective voice analysis was performed on 40 patients who were operated on in our clinic between 2020 and 2021. Measurements were repeated in the 2nd postoperative month. The results were compared statistically. Results: There was no significant difference between the groups according to the voice handicap index-10 (VHI-10) (p>0.050). The baseline frequency (F0) value was found to be statistically significantly higher in the postoperative period compared to the preoperative period (p=0.042). There was no statistically significant difference between groups in jitter %, shimmer % and harmonic noise ratio (HNR) values. Conclusion: Open heart surgery is an operation that can have a destructive effect on the respiratory system. The fact that the lungs, which are the source of voice energy, are affected, suggests that the voice quality will also be affected. While these effects usually regress in a short time, they can sometimes be permanent. This condition mostly affects people who use their voice in their profession. Therefore, detailed information about such a situation should be given to each patient and care should be taken to minimize the factors that may cause voice disorders.
