생체 발성모형에서 발성시 공기양의 변화가 음성 지표에 미치는 영향

Effect of Air Flow Change on Voice Parameters : In Vivo Canine Laryngeal Model

1) 공기양이 증가함에 따라 성문하압(Psub)은 증가하였으나, 성문저항(R)은 감소하였다. 2) 공기양이 증가함에 따라 소리 크기(Intensity)는 증가하였다. 3) 공기양이 증가함에 따라 성문개방율(OQ)은 증가하였다. 4) 가성영역(falsetto)에서 공기양의 증가는 기본 주파수(Fo)를 증가시켰으나, 지성영역 (modal)에서는 일률적인 변화를 보이지 않았다. 5) 갑상피열분지(TA branch)를 함께 자극했을 때(modal)는 그렇지 않을 때(falsetto)에 비하여, 성문하압(Psub), 성문저항(R), 소리 크기(intensity), 기본주파수(Fo)는 모두 증가하였으나, 성문개방율(OQ)은 감소하였다.

In vivo canine model was made in two mongrel dogs under the general Ⅰ-Ⅴ anesthesia. A vertical skin incision was made on the neck, the larynx and the trachea were dissected. Two tracheal openings were made : lower one for the insertion of the anesthesia tube and upper one for the delivery of air to the larynx to induce phonation. External branch of the superior laryngeal nerves and recurrent laryngeal nerves bilaterally were identified and stimulated electrically constantly. Subglottic pressure. fundamental frequency, intensity, and open quotient were measured when the air flow rate was varying low, medium and high. Glottic resistence was calculated. As the air flow rate was increased, the subglottic pressure and the sound intensity were increased. However, glottic resistance was decreased as the air flow was increased. In falsetto register, fundamenatal frequency was increased with the increment of air flow, but in modal register fundamental frequency was not increased statistically significant Open quotient by the electroglottography was increased according to the increment of airflow.
