Description
Sum Kim and co-authors measure hoarseness after spine surgery in a 2025 interim report. A hoarse voice can follow surgery under general anesthesia, but self-reports carry bias. Objective voice measures were needed to pin down how often it happens.
The plan covers more than four hundred patients; this report covers one hundred sixty-two with full data. Hoarseness struck thirty-five percent on surgery day, falling to about five percent by day thirty. Two sound measures, pitch and jitter, tracked the handicap scores early on. Cutoff values for three sound measures at day thirty were derived for future screening.
