A survey of laryngeal specialists is proposed to establish expert opinion on the methodology for evaluation of hoarseness, and to identify divergence of opinion regarding appropriate management.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Study Design<\/jats:title><jats:p>Cross\u2010sectional survey.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A 13\u2010item questionnaire was submitted electronically to the membership of the American Laryngological Association, the American Broncho\u2010Esophagological Association, and the European Laryngological Society. Responses were collated anonymously and subjected to cross\u2010tabulated data analysis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 195 responses were included for review. The majority of respondents identified themselves as laryngologists\/phoniatricians (54.9%). Two\u2010thirds (64.1%) of the providers dedicated more than 25% of their practice to voice management, and 48.8% managed more than 10 dysphonic patients weekly. Most respondents defined hoarseness and dysphonia as symptoms and not diseases. The panel recommended a mandated time to laryngoscopy of 1 week to 1 month from the onset of symptoms for most acutely dysphonic patients, regardless of risk factors for malignancy, while it was not advised to defer laryngoscopy beyond 2 months of symptom persistence in any situation. A majority (96.2%) felt that an otolaryngologist ought to perform the initial laryngoscopy of a newly hoarse patient.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>This survey demonstrates an agreement to expedite specialized laryngeal visualization for cases of hoarseness not subsiding within 1 month, and exemplifies controversies stemming from a recently published clinical practice guideline. Ongoing research and practice evaluation will contribute to set forth improved standards of care and to appropriately counsel dysphonic patients.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Level of Evidence<\/jats:title><jats:p>5. <jats:italic>Laryngoscope<\/jats:italic>, 124:221\u2013226, 2014<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.24178","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,6,26]],"date-time":"2013-06-26T18:51:09Z","timestamp":1372272669000},"page":"221-226","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Hoarseness evaluation: A transatlantic survey of laryngeal experts"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"124","author":[{"given":"Babak","family":"Sadoughi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"New York Center for Voice and Swallowing Disorders, St. Luke's\u2010Roosevelt Hospital Center Weill Cornell Medical College New York New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marvin P.","family":"Fried","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Montefiore Medical Center Bronx New York U.S.A."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lucian","family":"Sulica","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery Weill Cornell Medical College New York New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Andrew","family":"Blitzer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"New York Center for Voice and Swallowing Disorders, St. Luke's\u2010Roosevelt Hospital Center Weill Cornell Medical College New York New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,6,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.otohns.2009.06.744"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.23630"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.2012.156703"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.otohns.2010.05.026"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/000348941212101001"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jvoice.2011.11.009"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0194599812440780"}],"container-title":["The Laryngoscope"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1002%2Flary.24178","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/lary.24178","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1002\/lary.24178","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/lary.24178","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,20]],"date-time":"2023-08-20T19:21:45Z","timestamp":1692559305000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/lary.24178"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2013,6,26]]},"references-count":7,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2014,1]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/lary.24178"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/lary.24178","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0023-852X","1531-4995"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0023-852X","type":"print"},{"value":"1531-4995","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2013,6,26]]}}}
