Responsiveness of the Voice Handicap Index and its Abbreviated Version, Adapted to Rioplatense Spanish from Argentina (Índice de Desventaja Vocal)
Sensibilidad al cambio del Voice Handicap Index y su versión abreviada, adaptados al español rioplatense de Argentina (Índice de Desventaja Vocal)
Abstract
Aim. To evaluate the responsiveness of the “Índice de Desventaja Vocal” (Argentinian version of the Voice Handicap Index) consisting in 30 items (IDV-30) and its abbreviated version (IDV-10).
Methodology. The IDV-30 and IDV-10 were administered to subjects with dysphonia of various etiologies, both before (“PRE”) and after (“POST”) receiving voice therapy. Independent samples were used for each instrument (IDV-30 n = 81; IDV-10 n = 92). The responsiveness of each index and each subscale of the IDV-30 was evaluated using the Wilcoxon test and it was determined whether statistically significant differences existed in scores of different diagnostic groups using the Kruskal-Wallis test.
Results. Participants who completed the IDV-30 required an average of 8.44 therapy sessions while those who completed the IDV-10 required an average of 8.34 sessions. When comparing the “PRE” and “POST”-voice therapy scores of the total IDV-30, as well as each of its subscales and the IDV-10, the difference was statistically significant (p<0.001). There were no statistically significant differences in the score changes obtained by each diagnostic group across any of the indices.
Conclusions. The responsiveness of the IDV-30 and IDV-10 has been confirmed, as statistically significant improvement in scores was evidenced by participants in the study after receiving voice therapy.
