We present a validated method of determining in vivo pressure, flow and voice parameters from patients using tracheo-oesophageal voice prostheses post laryngectomy. This apparatus was constructed simply using equipment which should be available in most large Otolaryngology Departments. There was good agreement between measurements made over two separate sessions of in vivo opening pressure, maximum flow through the device and maximum voice amplitude and these were significant. These measurements may be useful in monitoring patient progress and also in elucidating the mechanics of prosthesis failure.
