A classic work, now in its sixth edition, ''Clinical Voice Pathology: Theory and Management'' is a compilation of the authors' vast clinical and research experiences and addresses a considerable range of voice disorders in various populations and from various etiologies including medical, environmental, social, psychological, occupational, and idiopathic threats to vocal health. The text continues to be organized for the graduate speech-language pathology student and instructor, building the foundational knowledge necessary to evaluate and treat voice disorders including history and common causes of voice disorders, anatomy and physiology of voice production, pathologies of the vocal mechanism, and an extensive array of evaluation and management approaches. In addition, the text continues to provide background in caring for the professional voice and those patients presenting with head and neck cancers.More than any previous edition, this edition includes major changes to benefit both the student and the instructor!New to the Sixth Edition:*A new chapter introducing the SLP's responsibilities with trach and vent patients*Updated references throughout the text to reflect the current state of clinical research in evaluation and treatment of voice disorders*Expanded voice therapy chapter including new evidence-based management approaches*Use of 'Call Out' boxes throughout the text to highlight cases, encourage additional thought, and suggest additional readings*Full color throughout the text including new figures and artwork to enhance learning and understanding of the material*A PluralPlus companion website with additional content including videos of laryngeal pathologies and instructional PowerPoint lectures for most chapters.Whether a typical voice user, occupational voice user, elite vocal performer, head and neck cancer patient, or an individual who has lost the ability to communicate competently and confidently due to a detrimental voice change, each patient presents a unique diagnostic dilemma: how best to return the voice to its optimal condition? This text thoroughly prepares the speech-language pathology student to answer this question through a systematic development of the knowledge base necessary to evaluate and manage voice disorders.With numerous pieces of artwork, full color throughout, multiple case examples, and a companion website of additional instructional material, ''Clinical Voice Pathology: Theory and Management, Sixth Edition'', not only maintains but significantly improves on the standards set by its previous editions as the primary text for a graduate level course in clinical voice disorders.

Includes 200+ audio and/or audio-video cases illustrating the range and variety of voice- and upper-airway related disorders, as well as techniques employed in their assessment and management!Clinical Voice Pathology: Theory and Management, a classic text now in its seventh edition, is a comprehensive resource that addresses the history, anatomy, physiology, etiologies, pathologies, and contemporary issues related to the assessment and management of the voice and related disorders. While continuing to provide the graduate speech-language pathology student with the knowledge necessary to evaluate and treat an impressive array of voice disorders, the text now includes two new chapters that focus on the expanding role of the speech-language pathologist in (1) upper airway disorders (including chronic refractory cough as well as inducible- and exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction), and (2) gender-affirming voice and communication training. With a foundation rooted in science, combined with the vast clinical and research expertise of the authors, students and practicing clinicians will be equipped with the knowledge necessary to effectively assess and manage not only a wide range of voice and upper airway disorders, but also individuals who seek gender-affirming voice care.Individuals with diverse voice and airway related issues, such as professional voice users, performers, patients with laryngeal cancer, or who are tracheostomy and ventilator-dependent are often complex and demand a clinician who possesses an extraordinary depth and breadth of knowledge. To facilitate the acquisition of this knowledge, this text offers a wealth of visual aids, including artwork, case studies, and a companion website with extensive audiovisual instructional materials. These features not only maintain the high standards set by previous editions but further enhance the learning experience. New to the Seventh EditionA new chapter describing the SLP's roles and responsibilities in the assessment and management of upper airway disorders including chronic refractory cough (CRC), inducible laryngeal obstruction (ILO) and exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO). A new chapter on gender-affirming voice and communication training for transgender and gender-diverse individuals including approaches to gender-affirming health care. Additional extensive audio and video examples of clinical cases and related treatment outcomes. Instructional "how-to" videos demonstrating important procedural aspects of assessment (eg, focal laryngeal palpation, voice stimulability testing) and specific evidence-based voice therapies including manual laryngeal reposturing, circumlaryngeal massage, vocal function exercises, and resonant voice therapy. Continued focus on enhancements to instruction and learning, including use of "Call-Out" boxes to highlight cases and encourage additional discussion.Updated references throughout the text to reflect the current state of clinical research and practice.Key FeaturesNew Chapters on (i) Upper airway disorders and (ii) Gender-affirming voice careFull-color text and imagesNumerous Call Out boxesMultiple helpful appendices
