RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Dysphonia, with or without laryngeal changes, has been reported as a complication following prolonged intubation. In contrast, it is unknown if laryngeal changes also occur following short-term airway instrumentation. The objectives of this study were to determine the prevalence of laryngeal changes in patients undergoing short-term routine general anesthesia using an endotracheal tube (ETT) or supraglottic airway (SGA), and to identify predictors to these changes. METHODS: Standardized voice assessments were performed preoperatively, postoperatively, and at follow-up on adults undergoing general anesthesia for an elective procedure of less than three hours requiring an ETT or a SGA. The standardized voice assessment protocol comprised a rigid videolaryngostroboscopy, the Voice Handicap Index (VHI), and acoustic voice analysis. The effects of demographic and anesthetic characteristics and type of airway instrumentation on the videolaryngostroboscopic variables were studied using multilevel logistic regression. Multilevel linear regression was used to reveal preoperative versus postoperative changes in VHI and acoustic voice scores. RESULTS: Overall, the prevalence of postoperative laryngeal changes was low. Significant postoperative laryngeal changes were found for the variables right-sided vocal fold redness in the ETT group (P = 0.048) and right-sided vocal fold blood vessels in both groups (ETT versus SGA). However, after adjustment for all demographic and anesthetic characteristics in the regression model, the effect of the type of airway instrumentation (ETT versus SGA) on the variable right-sided vocal fold redness was no longer significant. CONCLUSIONS: ETT and SGA short-term airway instrumentation are vocal fold function sparing techniques with negligible laryngeal changes.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the presence of medically unexplained otorhinolaryngological symptoms in a patient cohort and propose an interdisciplinary approach for their care. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. METHODS: The study describes the population of patients presenting consecutively at the Department of Otorhinolaryngology at the Maastricht University Medical Center. Patients with symptoms who did not meet clear "medical" criteria and were associated with psychological distress and high health care utilization were enrolled in the study by two experienced otorhinolaryngologists following informed consent. The aim of the study is 1) to specify the presence of medically unexplained otorhinolaryngological symptoms and 2) to evaluate the integration of otorhinolaryngological and psychiatric treatment in an interdisciplinary approach in order to help otorhinolaryngologists improve patient care. RESULTS: Of the 102 patients included, 41% (N = 42) did not have a proven somatic otorhinolaryngological diagnosis. For only 10.8% (N = 4) of the latter, no psychiatric diagnosis had been established. Overall, 78% of the study population (N = 80) was diagnosed with psychiatric morbidity/comorbidity, as defined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition. CONCLUSION: The preliminary data suggest that the majority of patients with these unexplained complaints may suffer from under- or undiagnosed psychiatric morbidity. Therefore, easy access to integrated interdisciplinary care (otorhinolaryngology and psychiatry) should be offered to patients with medically unexplained otorhinolaryngological symptoms after detailed information is made available to them about the pathogenesis of the complaints and the foreseen psychosomatic approach.
