Working with Voice Disorders Summary

Working with Voice Disorders: Theory and Practice by Stephanie Martin

An essential resource for clinicians of varying levels of experience from student to very specializer, Working with Voice Disorders provides practical insight and direction into all aspects of voice disorders from assessment and diagnosis to intervention and case management. This second edition retains the successful format of mixing theory and practice, a melding of scientific knowledge with clinical art, which was such a feature of the first edition. In recognition of changes in practice and theory over the past decade, it contains a wealth of new, up-to-date, evidence based material. This blends with a practical approach to clinical efficiencies and management of the voice service. The second edition of Working with Voice Disorders provides a sound theoretical framework to this specialism and also offers a rich variety of tried and tested, practical and photocopiable resource material, which is the result of the authors' wide experience, accumulated over several decades in the field of voice therapy. The multi-dimensional structure of the manual allows the clinician to look, not only at specific aspects of patient management, but also at aspects such as clinical effectiveness, clinical efficiencies and service management. The authors' aim is that this resource should provide clinicians with a pragmatic, patient-centred, easy to use and accessible resource, facilitating and informing decision-making along the clinical journey from referral to discharge. The contents of this title include: Anatomy overview; The Spectrum of Voice Disorders; The Case History; Assessment; Treatment Strategies; Management Strategies; Service Provision; Over 50 pages of practical, photocopiable exercises. Photocopiable Appendices: Voice Care Advice; Voice Disorders Summary Chart; Voice Assessment Sheet; Voice Record Sheet; and, Voice Diary.

About Stephanie Martin

Dr. Stephanie Martin is a speech & language therapist, whose career has combined clinical practice, research, lecturing and writing. Her professional focus of interest is in occupational voice disorders. She holds an MA in voice studies from the Central School of Speech and Drama (London). Her doctoral research explored factors, which have an impact on the vocal performance and vocal effectiveness of newly qualified teachers and lecturers. Stephanie is a Past-President of the British Voice Association and in 2005 she was awarded Fellowship of the Royal College of Speech & Language Therapists for research and teaching. Stephanie holds an Honorary Senior Lecturer post in the School of Allied Health Sciences at the University of East Anglia. She is currently engaged in two areas of research; a study into the effectiveness of clinical training and readiness to practice of newly qualified clinicians and a UK wide epidemiological study of voice disorders. Previous publications include The Voice Sourcebook (1992), which began a writing partnership with Lyn Darnley, a partnership which continued with the publication of The Teaching Voice (1996), now in its second edition (Wiley-Blackwell 2004) which addresses voice use in the classroom. The Voice Box, a practical voice resource will be published in 2013. Myra Lockhart is a speech and language therapist, who has had a special interest in Clinical Voice Disorders, and Head and Neck Disorders throughout her career as a clinician and manager. She has led projects, published and presented papers on voice intervention, the use of objective assessment, clinical effectiveness and efficiency, and service management in voice disorders. For many years she was an Advisor in Voice Disorders for the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists and contributed locally and nationally in multiprofessional AHP projects. She has a special interest in the occupational voice, particularly in singing, teaching, contact centre workers and radio presenters. She has led many workshops for all these groups throughout her career. Myra's personal interests include music and singing which she continues to pursue for pleasure. Similarly she presents a thought for the day regularly on local radio. Although Stephanie and Myra have been clinical colleagues and friends for many years, Working with Voice Disorders, (Speechmark, 2000), began their writing partnership, a partnership which continued with the publication of the VIP: the Voice Impact Profile, (Speechmark, 2005). Their most recent collaboration is this second edition of Working with Voice Disorders.
