Abstract

Telehealth is included in the field of activity of the professional speech therapist and regulated in CFFa resolution nº. 580/2020. In the voice area, positive results were observed in vocal parameters via teleconsultation after the intervention. There is a gap in speech therapy graduation regarding teleconsultations, and this became evident with the COVID-19 pandemic, which made it necessary to carry out this type of service with professionals who had not had theoretical and/or practical experience. Objective: To report the experience in creating and developing a university extension action on voice teleconsultations for individuals with vocal complaints. Methodology: This is a descriptive study of the experience report type developed in an extension project. Students and teachers structured, developed, and applied a step-by-step guide for carrying out teleconsultations to deal with cases of behavioral dysphonia with the CVRP (Comprehensive Vocal Rehabilitation Program). Results: The teleconsultation project promoted the experience of a new practice in speech therapy for students, in addition to notions of outpatient organization, protocols to be followed, flow of care, feedback, referrals, and rules of virtual care. Twelve dysphonic individuals were included in the telehealth project. Conclusion: The remote activity experience brought positive gains for the students, aiming for a new care practice, with instructions and training based on ethics and patient care and from a care point of view with improvement in vocal quality and vocal self-assessment of patients seen via teleconsultation.
