Dysbiosis Human Randomized controlled trial

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the mix of microbial species isolated from biofilm-clogged voice prostheses is specific to each participant, whether the microbes are orally-derived and whether the presence of specific species is a predictor of the frequency with which patients discard devices due to malfunction. The microbes isolated from discarded devices will be used to test the antimicrobial properties of newly-developed medical silicones.
