• Evitar aspiração de líquidos/comida nos pulmões
• Proteger via aérea de conteúdo abdominal
– Refluxo
– Vômitos
– Pressão intra-abdominal
• Fonação
The original use of the larynx was to keep us alive through breakfast. Its main function
is stop solids and liquids from entering the trachea and choking us to death. Its
secondary functions are to bear down, phonation and speech. The larynx of humans
and great apes in infancy is higher in the neck so that they can breathe and suckle at the
same time. In humans it descends before the age of two.

The thyroid rests superiorly on the cricoid and attaches posterior-laterally at the cricoid’s inferior articulator facets. This attachment (the cricothyroid joint)
hinges the cricoid and thyroid allowing their anterior sides to adduct, changing
vocal fold length.

Composition of the Larynx (Con’t)
• Composed of Muscle:
–Extrinsic Laryngeal Muscles
–Intrinsic Laryngeal Muscles
Extrinsic Muscle
TWO Groups of Extrinsic Muscles:
• Suprahyoids – Attach to points above the Hyoid (Jaw, Skull and Tongue) when they contract they raise or elevate the Larynx eg Swallowing
• Infrahyoids – Attach to points below the Hyoid (one connects to the thyroid, however the others connect to the sternum and the scapula) when they contract they lower or depress the Larynx
15/12/2012
19
Intrinsic Muscles
• Adductors – vocal folds are together
• Abductors – vocal folds apart
• Tensors - Stiffen
• Relaxors - Relax
Adductors
• Lateral Cricoarytenoids
• Interarytenoids
–Transverse Arytenoids
–Oblique Arytenoids

Abductors • Posterior Cricoarytenoids

Vocal Folds
• Muscle
–External Thyroarytenoids – inserts into the
muscular process on the Arytenoids and the Thyroid notch (shorten and adduct)
–Internal Thyroarytenoids – inserts into the
vocal process on the Arytenoids and the Thyroid Notch (shortens and stiffens), act antagonistically to the Cricothyroids
• Membrane

23
Membranes
• False Vocal Folds – Ventricular folds
• Laryngeal Ventricle
• Conus Elasticus (interconnects the thyroid, cricoid and arytenoids
cartilages)
• Lamina propria (mucosal cover of the vocalis muscle) – can vibrate independently of the vocalis muscle
• Vocal Ligament – the thread like collagenous fibers of the deep layer of the lamina propria
Relaxors and Tensors
• External Thyroarytenoid – Relaxor, shortens and adducts
• Internal Thyroarytenoid – Tensor, shortens and stiffens
• Cricothyroid Muscles – Tensor, lengthens and stiffens
Pitch is determined by Relaxors and Tensors

Fundamental Frequency
Phonation is made up of a fundamental
frequency or Fo (the number of times the folds
open and close per second-CPS) and harmonic
multiples of the Fo (two times the Fo, three
times, four times etc.) that fall in intensity
(volume) in an inverse relationship as the
harmonics rise in frequency or as the pitch
rises the volume falls.

FREQUENCY
(PITCH)
Pitch
• Fundamental frequency (average: baby 500Hz, children 250-400Hz
men 125Hz women 200Hz) is primarily affected by applying more or less longitudinal tension to the VF using:
• Cricothyroids
• Tension in the vocalis muscle
OR • Adjustments in vertical tension – depressing or elevating the
Larynx via suprahyiod and infrahyoid muscles
15/12/2012
26
Vocal Fold Tension, Elasticity and Movement
• Thicker or thinner
• Shorter or longer
• Open or close
• Intermediate positions
• Stiff or elastic
Movement:
Bronx Cheer or Raspberry– “the sound is that or air escaping in rapid bursts, not the sound of the lips moving” – Borden and Harris. Aerodynamic forces acting on the elastic body of the lips
ADMET – Aero Dynamic Myo-Elastic Theory
Glottal vibration is the result or refers to interaction between aero-dynamic forces and vocal fold muscular action.
• Sub-Glottal Pressure
• Bernoulli Effect – set vocal folds into vibration due to the elasticity of the folds (elastic recoil – the force which restores any elastic body back to its resting place)
• Muscular Force – Muscles act to bring the folds together so they can vibrate, and muscles regulate their thickness and tension to alter fundamental frequency. Folds are FULLY or PARTIALLY ADDUCTED for phonation
15/12/2012
27
Bernoulli Effect
• An increase in velocity results in a drop in the pressure exerted by the molecules of moving gas or liquid, the pressure drops being perpendicular the direction of the flow
Schematic showing the Bernoulli Effect. The arrows indicate movement of pressure. As the air
moves through a narrowing, inside pressure drops and outside pressure increases pulling the sides
inward.

28
Glottal Cycle
• Vertical Phase Difference – vocal folds open at the bottom first. As top part opens bottom part closes. Wave like motion

29
Chest (Modal Register)
• Low fundamental frequency
• Vocalis muscle activity
• Folds are thick and short
• Low stiffness
Falsetto Register
• Longer and thinner folds
• Stiff folds
• Small amplitude of vibration
• Incomplete closure of the folds
• Shutter like appearance – Vibrate more like strings
15/12/2012
30
Vocal Onset
• How we bring the folds together:
– Attack
– Breathy
– Vocal Fry
– Partial adduction – Whispering or falsetto register
(Note: Folds come together FULLY but without force for Modal register)
Pitch
• Lies in the stiffness of the folds resulting from lengthening and contraction of the thyroarytenoids, especially the vocalis portion
