Brain zaps aim to quiet vocal cords in rare voice disorder
NCT ID NCT05095740
First seen Feb 22, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called rTMS can improve voice function in people with laryngeal dystonia, a condition that causes the vocal cords to spasm, leading to a strained or breathy voice. About 25 adults with the condition will receive either real or sham (fake) stimulation to see if it reduces muscle overactivity and improves voice quality. The goal is to find a new, non-drug option for managing this challenging voice disorder.
