The Performance of Automatic Speaking Valves and Fixation Devices Enabling Hands‐Free Speech Following Total Laryngectomy—A Systematic Review

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The percentage of daily automatic speaking valve use (AU) in laryngectomized patients has remained at ~25% since their invention. To increase this percentage, understanding the performance of existent devices is essential. Therefore, we reviewed studies reporting AU, fixation device lifetime (FDL), compliance, and voice and speech ...

Peroral endoscopic myotomy

World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 2015
Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) incorporates concepts of natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery and achieves endoscopic myotomy by utilizing a submucosal tunnel as an operating space. Although intended for the palliation of symptoms of achalasia, there is mounting data to suggest it is also efficacious in the management of spastic esophageal
