In this investigation, we evaluated the effectiveness of surface electromyography (EMG) biofeedback to treat paradoxical vocal fold motion in a 16-year-old girl. EMG biofeedback training occurred once per week over the course of 10 weeks. In a changing criterion design, muscle tension showed systematic changes that corresponded with changes in the criterion. Overall, baseline muscle tension levels were reduced over 60%, with corresponding reductions in episodes of respiratory distress and chest pain. Subjective reports by the patient and the patient's mother indicated improvements in school attendance and overall adaptive functioning.
在本研究中，我们评估了表面肌电图（EMG）生物反馈疗法对一名16岁女孩反常声带运动的治疗效果。EMG生物反馈训练在10周内每周进行一次。在变化标准设计中，肌肉张力呈现出与标准变化相对应的系统性变化。总体而言，基线肌肉张力水平降低了60%以上，同时呼吸窘迫和胸痛发作次数也相应减少。患者及其母亲的主观报告表明，其上学出勤率和整体适应性功能均有所改善。
