Abstract

To identify the presence of occupational dysphonia (OD) based on the vocal disability index (VHI) and the integrated vocal disturbance index (IPI) in a group of teachers in the city of Cali. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted between January and February 2019. All participants completed the VHI questionnaire and underwent an acoustic voice analysis to estimate the IPI. Data from 30 teachers were analyzed, of which 22 were women, 80% (24) were over 45 years of age. By means of the VHI, it was identified that all teachers experienced some degree of vocal impairment with a median of 41.5 points (interquartile range: 33.7 to 65.7), while with IPI 40% (12) had abnormal values (IPI≥2). No relationship was found between VHI scores and IPI values (p>0.05) The findings of this study highlight the high risk of OD among teachers due to their professional practice, so it is essential to generate a national program for early detection of vocal risk that includes promotion and prevention activities.
