This volume provides a comprehensive review of causes of voice
changes in athletes and coaches, the clinical presentation of
laryngeal dysfunction, and its different treatment modalities. The
authors discuss the predisposing factors of these changes including
the use of anabolic steroids, and highlight the pathophysiology of
voice disorders in sports-occupational voice users who very often
need to vocalize outdoors and/or while performing strenuous
exercise over noise. Chapters cover the literature on vocal health
risk factors in the sports industry; the common phonatory
disturbances in athletes, fitness instructors and coaches;
sports-related laryngeal trauma; the impact of sports-related
musculoskeletal injuries on phonation; vocal fold dysfunction in
athletes, as well as the adverse effect of anabolic steroids intake
on occupational voice users. An updated, brief review of the
anatomy and physiology of phonation, with guidelines on the work-up
and treatment of common laryngeal pathologies in patients with
voice disorders is included. A well-focused description of the
interplay between musculoskeletal injuries, hyperkinetic body
behavior, laryngeal hyperfunction and voice disorders in athletes
and coaches is also provided, and the prevalence and
pathophysiology of exercise-induced laryngeal dysfunction is
discussed in depth. The text concludes with a thorough examination
of laryngeal trauma in athletes, clinical presentations, diagnostic
work-up and management. Voice Disorders in Athletes, Coaches and
other Sports Professionals will be a go to resource for
otolaryngologists, laryngologists, speech-language pathologists,
voice therapists, sports-occupational voice users, sports medicine
physicians, and physical therapists.
