[High-frequency videocinematograpphy for the objective imaging of the velopharyngeal closure mechanism in cleft palate patients]

, 1994
The use of high-frequency video cineradiography makes possible an objective and dynamic rendering of the individual velopharyngeal closer pattern. The high resolution and the depiction of the finest mucosal structures while in motion achieved by this ...

Differences in velopharyngeal pressures during speech sound production in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) and healthy individuals

GMS German Medical Science
Background: During articulation the velopharynx needs to be opened and closed rapidly and a tight closure is needed. Based on the hypothesis that patients with cleft lip and palate (CLP) produce lower pressures in the velopharynx than healthy individuals,

Induced Velopharyngeal Fatigue Effects in Speakers with Repaired Palatal Clefts

, 2008
Objective: To address whether speakers with cleft palate a) exhibit velopharyngeal mechanism fatigue specifically involving the levator veli palatini (LVP) muscle, and b) are more susceptible to muscle fatigue than are speakers without cleft palate ...

Effect of vocal fry on voice and on velopharyngeal sphincter [PDF]

, 2014
Introduction: It is known that the basal sound promotes shortening and adduction of the vocal folds and leaves the mucosa looser. However there are few studies that address the supralaryngeal physiological findings obtained using the technique. Objective:
