Collaboration for improved voice analysis in the department of speech therapy,

Halland Hospital in Halmstad, Sweden

 

Background of the project

Voice recordings are used as a basis for being able to hear exactly which parameters in the voice that can and should be treated in patients with voice problems, later also for evaluation of any treatment and improvement / deterioration over time. The sound quality of the recordings has been substandard for all years, but a stationary studio at each hospital has from an economic and functional point of view not been relevant. In 2018, a collaboration was started with MTH Medical Technology Halland and the company ISOVOX AB, to adapt the mobile voice recording studio ISOVOX ® MedTech for  the needs of the speech therapy.

​

Purpose

To achieve faster and safer results in voice processing with better sound quality of voice recordings.

​

Method Description

After a dialogue about the needs of the speech therapist, a prototype was presented. ISOVOX ® MedTech was further tested and developed to meet the requirements for high recording quality, the possibility of storage in VAS, approved for health care and wheelchair compatible.

 

Results

• Participation and value for the patient

The patient is given the opportunity to listen to their own voice recording and analyze it together with the speech therapist. This increases understanding of the treatment process and gives motivation to exercise.

• Equal Healthcare

A mobile voice studio gives an equal healthcare for all patients

Created value

The improvement work means increased value for both residents and speech therapists in form of increased efficiency, and sound quality as well as a financial savings compared to the alternatives.
