New voice valve aims to cut down replacement surgeries

NCT ID NCT07369050

Summary

This study is testing whether regularly using a special voice prosthesis called the Provox ActiValve can reduce the number of times patients need to have their voice device replaced each year. The research will involve 48 adults who have had their voice box removed due to cancer and now use a prosthesis to speak. Participants will be randomly assigned to use either the new ActiValve or a standard voice prosthesis to compare how often each needs replacement and any related side effects or costs.
