description |
Rugby is a high-performance sport, it implies a high level of stress and physical demands and involves an impulsive communicative style that its manifests as tension of cervical muscles in vocal emission that generates elevation of the larynx with a compressed vocal production. The literature regarding voice and rugby relation it is limited, a study indicates that 15 rugby coaches had "sore throat" as the most frequent vocal symptom. No investigations related to the voice of players were found.
This study aims to determine the prevalence and correlation between vocal tract discomfort symptoms (VTDS) and voice quality (VQ) alteration in rugby players (RP) from "Equipo Reserva UNC" in 2018.
Descriptive, cross-sectional, correlational study. 23 masculine RP were assessed before training, ages between 18-33, not professional or occupational voice users, without toxic habits. Vocal Tract Discomfort self-assessment was applied. Sustained vocal and automatic series emissions were recorded with Praat software to evaluate audio-perceptually the VQ with GRBAS scale. The data were statistically analyzed with Excel and Infostat software.
The most-reported VTDS were: Dryness (91%) and Itching (60%). According to the GRBAS scale, we found mild and moderate VQ alteration in G (grade of dysphonia) 91%, R (roughness) 78% and S (strain) 91%. There were a positive correlation between VTDs total score and G, R and S parameters, the correlation was significant between G and VTDs (PC=0.49; p = 0.04).
There was a high prevalence of "dryness" and "itchy" symptoms and alteration of G, R and S parameters, with a significant relationship between VTDS and G. Symptoms of dryness and itching would indicate alteration of the vocal tract mucosa, while G, R and S parameters of VQ alteration would indicate an audible impression of irregular glottic pulses and phonatory strain. The STDS reported by RP would be related to audible alterations at vocal folds. This research revealed that RP could be a risk population of vocal disorders

En la literatura científica un estudio indica que 15 entrenadores de rugby registraron el dolor de garganta como el síntoma vocal más frecuente. No se encontraron investigaciones relacionadas a la voz de jugadores. El proósito de este estudio fue determinar la prevalencia y correlación entre síntomas de disconfort del tracto vocal (sDTV) y alteración de calidad vocal (CV) en jugadores de rugby (JR) del equipo Reserva de la UNC en 2018. Estudio descriptivo, transversal, correlacional. Se evaluaron 23 JR del “Equipo Reserva UNC” antes del entrenamiento. Hombres de 18-33 años, no usuarios de voz profesional u ocupacional, sin hábitos tóxicos. Completaron el autorreporte Disconfort del Tracto Vocal y se registraron muestras de emisión de vocal sostenida y serie automática mediante el software Praat, las mismas fueron analizadas audio-perceptivamente con la escala GRBAS para valorar la CV. Se analizaron datos con los softwares Excel e Infostat. Los sDTV más reportados fueron: Sequedad (91%) y Picazón (60%). Según la escala GRBAS, se encontró alteración de CV leve y moderada en los parámetros G (grado de disfonía) en el 91%, R (rugosidad) en el 78% y S (tensión) en el 91%. Se encontró correlación positiva entre total de sDTV y parámetros G, R y S de CV, siendo estadísticamente significativa para el parámetro G con CP=0,42 (p=0,04). Se observó alta prevalencia de síntomas sequedad y picazón y de alteración de parámetros G, R y S. Se observó correlación significativa entre el total de sDTV y G. Los síntomas sequedad y picazón indicarían alteración de la mucosa del tracto vocal, mientras que la CV alterada en los parámetros G, R y S, indicaría impresión audible de pulsos glóticos irregulares y tensión fonatoria. Los sDTV reportados por los JR estarían relacionados con alteraciones audibles a nivel de pliegues vocales. Los resultados señalan que los JR podrían ser un grupo en riesgo de padecer alteraciones vocales. Universidad Nacional Cba. Facultad de Ciencias Médicas.
