Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).

Introduction
Voice prostheses are used to restore voice in patients after total laryngectomy. They are placed into
a surgically created tracheoesophageal puncture (TEP). The placement can be performed during
the laryngectomy (primary placement), later after healing as an endoscopic procedure (secondary
placement) or in order to replace a voice prosthesis (replacement procedure). There exist different
prosthesis specific placement tools to insert a voice prosthesis into the TEP. Placement of the voice
prosthesis can be performed via the tracheostoma (anterograde), via the mouth (retrograde) and via the
surgical wound (intraoperative).
Voice prostheses have three essential functions:
— they prevent spontaneous closure of the TEP;
— they allow airflow into the pharynx for the creation of speech;
— they seal the TEP during swallowing.
Safe retention of the voice prosthesis is achieved by the oesophageal and tracheal flanges. The
oesophageal flange is placed into the oesophagus, the tracheal flange is placed in the trachea. In order
to prevent leakage of food and saliva into the trachea voice prostheses have a one-way valve that opens
in the direction of the oesophagus.
Voice prostheses have a limited service life and have to be replaced if they start leaking or if they are
overgrown with a biofilm.
There are two groups of voice prostheses:
— indwelling voice prostheses, and
— non-indwelling voice prostheses.
Indwelling voice prostheses are placed by a professional (e.g., speech-language pathologist, physician)
and left in the TEP until they fail. They are then replaced.
Non-indwelling voice prostheses are replaced by the patient himself after a certain training period.
