[Spirometric examinations at laryngectomized patients and healthy subjects].
Spirometric studies were conducted at 40 patients, divided into on basic group (20 laryngectomized men, aged 48-77 years) and comparative group (20 healthy men, aged 20-57 years). The results obtained showed that the mean value of airways resistance was about 5-times higher than at healthy subjects. The large resistance of airways influence for considerable decreasing of the maximum ventilation volume. Tracheitis and bronchitis chronic in cause of increase resistance of airways at laryngectomized patients and it can influence for quality and understanding of vicarious voice.
