MS patients may soon get voice therapy from home

NCT ID NCT05930379

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This pilot study tested whether a voice therapy program called LSVT-Loud, usually done in a clinic, can be delivered effectively via video calls for people with multiple sclerosis (MS). Twenty participants with MS who had voice problems received the therapy either at home or in the clinic. The goal was to see if the at-home approach is feasible and can improve voice loudness during everyday speaking. The study is small and focused on feasibility, so results are preliminary.

Active substance

LSVT-Loud voice therapy

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer a convenient at-home voice therapy option for people with MS who have trouble speaking loudly or clearly.

What could go wrong

This is a very small pilot study (20 people) testing feasibility, not effectiveness. Results may not apply to all MS patients, and telerehab may not work as well as in-person therapy.
