To verify the immediate effect of the Finger Kazoo technique associated with glissandos in the voice of individuals with Parkinson's disease.
Thirty subjects with Parkinson's Disease comprised of 15 men and 15 women with a mean age of 63.8 years (± 6.88) and mean time of diagnosis of 97.33 (± 63.53) months, all with preserved cognition. The subjects' voice range profile (VRP), speech range profile (SRP), and the maximum phonation time were assessed, before and after applying the Finger Kazoo technique associated with ascending and descending glissando. After the technique, a vocal satisfaction questionnaire was completed.
After the applied technique there was an increase in the minimum and maximum fundamental frequency recorded respectively in the SRP and in the VRP; there was an increase in the vocal range (measured in Hertz and semitones) of the women, recorded in the VRP; in the male population, there was an increase in maximum phonation time. A higher percentage of positive references to vocal improvement was observed after the exercise.
In patients with Parkinson's Disease, the Finger Kazoo with glissando technique promoted an increase in the minimum fundamental frequency of the SRP and in the vocal extensions of women, as well as increasing the maximum phonatory time of men. In addition, patients reported satisfaction with the use of the technique and its results.
验证 Finger Kazoo 技术与滑音联合应用对帕金森病患者声音的即时效果。
30 名帕金森病患者（15 名男性，15 名女性），平均年龄 63.8 岁（±6.88 岁），平均诊断时间为 97.33 个月（±63.53 个月），所有患者认知功能正常。在应用 Finger Kazoo 技术与上行和下行滑音联合应用前后，评估患者的声域图（VRP）、语音域图（SRP）和最长发音时间。在技术应用后，完成了一个声音满意度问卷。
应用技术后，SRP 记录的最小和最大基频分别增加，VRP 记录的最小和最大基频分别增加；女性的声域（以赫兹和半音为单位测量）增加；男性的最大发音时间增加。在练习后，观察到更多的声音改善的正面参考。
在帕金森病患者中，Finger Kazoo 与滑音技术联合应用可提高 SRP 的最小基频和女性的声音扩展，并增加男性的最大发音时间。此外，患者报告对技术的使用和结果感到满意。
