Study Summary

Exercise-induced paradoxical vocal fold motion disorder (E-PVFMD) - which severely impacts the lives of up to 1 million adolescents in the U.S. annually - is under- or mis-diagnosed in as many as 80% of cases, leading to ineffective, protracted periods of management. Additionally, what makes those with the condition different from those at risk for the condition (e.g., playing sports/engaging in athletic activity within a competitive athletic environment) is unclear. The goals of this proposed study are to address this diagnostic challenge by (1) pursuing a previously published preliminary taxonomic algorithm for the clinical identification and classification of EPVFMD, and by (2) elucidating potential underlying mechanisms driving this clinical presentation. Study outcomes will improve sensitivity and specificity of diagnosis protocols for PVFMD, thereby reducing prevalence of misdiagnosis and improving clinical management in individuals with this disorder in the future. Outcomes will also be used to create preventative care measures for adolescents at risk for the condition.
