Online Intervention for Muscle Tension Dysphonia: A Pilot Randomized Clinical Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

Voice-related perceived control is the extent to which a person feels they can control their voice condition and/or their response to it. Given the interaction of psychological factors and voice outcomes, an intervention targeting psychological factors may be a helpful adjunct to clinical voice care.

Objective

To investigate the feasibility, acceptability, and potential efficacy of a perceived control intervention adapted for adult patients with muscle tension dysphonia and to compare its outcomes with those of a voice education program.

Design, settings, and participants

This was a pilot randomized clinical trial using mixed methods and including adults with muscle tension dysphonia from academic otolaryngology clinics from July 8, 2018, to December 8, 201
