The primary objective of this proposal is to develop an Airway Stenosis Registry at Mayo Clinic. The purpose of the registry will be to support ongoing research in the etiology, early diagnosis, clinical management, and prognosis of airway stenosis due to inflammation, cancers and other diseases of the airway.  

Patients undergoing open transcervical or endoscopic approach in which a laser or stapler is used to divide the common wall between the diverticulum and esophagus, or who are not surgical candidates but agree to follow-up.

 The purpose of this study is to use Canine Assisted Therapy (CAT)  in patients undergoing office procedures in an Otolaryngology.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the epidemiologic and psychologic factors for spasmotic dsyphonia (SD).   

The purpose of this study is to investigate if spasmotic dsyphonia (SD) patients have neurological diseases like dystonia, cervical dystonia, Parkinson’s disease more than normal population

The purpose of this study is to gather data about the patient experience during the procedure and if they felt it resulted in either better or worse response to treatment.  If certain patterns emerge after the initial data gathering, then potentially more patient education about the procedure and what can be expected may be helpful.

The purpose of this study is to investigate if SD patients have vocal disorders (nodules, polyps, muscle tension dysphonia etc) more than in normal population.

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of BLU-5937 on 24-hour cough frequency in an enriched population of adults with refractory chronic cough (including unexplained chronic cough) at 24 weeks

The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and feasibility of autologous Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) applied in subjects with vocal fold scarring.

A secondary objective is to assess the effectiveness of SVF’s ability to improve the function of scarred vocal folds and quality of life.

The purpose of this study is to determine if there is a relationship between cognitive status and a patient’s ability to improve vocal quality through effective participation in voice therapy – including following directions within a session and compliance with a home exercise program, and carry-over into daily phonation.

The purpose of this study is to determine if there is an acoustic change in voices during L-DDK interpretations in patients who undergo vocal fold injection medialization procedures (injections of Restylane, autologous fat, Cymetra, or Prolaryn).
