The Efficacy of Vocal Function Exercises for Laryngeal Cancers

The purpose of this study is to determine if the systematic practice of Vocal Function
Exercises (VFE) improves selected measures of voice production in participants who have
previously been irradiated for early glottic cancers compared to participants who receive the
present standard of care, namely, vocal hygiene counseling. It is hypothesized that a
prescriptive vocal exercise program (VFE) will improve the voice production of individuals
who have been previously treated for laryngeal cancers when compared to participants who
receive vocal hygiene alone.
