I am able to review all voice history on the Alexa app on my phone, but my wife can only see history for one of our devices. All devices are available to her on the app, just not history. I tried to create groups for individual devices, but they do not come available in the device drop-down box in history.

Background: Interpersonal aspects of care, such as the communication behaviors of physicians, are often cited as central to patients' decisions to initiate malpractice litigation. Relatively little is known, however, about the impact of the communication behaviors of surgeons. In the current study, we investigated the relationship between judgments of surgeons' voice tone and their malpractice claims history.
Methods: We examined the relationship between surgeons' voice tone during routine office visits and their history of malpractice claims. Surgeons were audiotaped while speaking to their patients during office visits, and very brief samples of the conversations were rated by coders blind to surgeons' claims status. Two 10-second clips were extracted for each surgeon from the first and last minute of their interactions with 2 different patients. Several variables were rated that assessed warmth, hostility, dominance, and anxiety from 10-second voice clips with content and 10-second voice clips with just voice tone.
Results: Controlling for content, ratings of higher dominance and lower concern/anxiety in their voice tones significantly identified surgeons with previous claims compared with those who had no claims (odds ratio [OR] 2.74, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.16 to 6.43 for dominance; OR 0.46, 95% CI 0.21 to 1.01 for concern/anxiety).
Conclusions: Surgeons' tone of voice in routine visits is associated with malpractice claims history. This is the first study to show clear associations between communication and malpractice in surgeons. Specific types of affect associated with claims can be judged from brief audio clips, suggesting that this method might be useful in training surgeons.
Under the influence of testicular secretion, the male vocal cords increase in length by 67% in adult men compared with prepubertal boys, whereas in the female the increase is only 24%. This greater length and an increase in vocal cord mass is responsible for the lowering of pitch of the male voice during puberty. From the late 16th century, castration was carried out in Italy to preserve the unbroken male voice into adult life, but the high pitch was accompanied by fully grown resonating chambers and a large thoracic capacity, giving rise to the unique voice of the castrato. The initial stimulus for the production of castrati came from the Sistine Chapel in Rome, to provide singers for the complex church music of the time. The second reason was the coming of opera to Italy at the beginning of the 17th century. Boys were castrated between the ages of 7 and 9 years, and underwent a long period of voice training. A small number became international opera stars, of whom the most famous was Farinelli, whose voice ranged over three octaves. By the end of the 18th century, fashions in opera had changed so that the castrati declined except in the Vatican, where the Sistine Chapel continued to employ castrati until 1903. The last of the castrati was Alessandro Moreschi, who died in 1924 and made gramophone recordings that provide the only direct evidence of a castrato's singing voice.
The National Consumer Voice for Quality Long-Term Care (formerly known as the National Citizens' Coalition for Nursing Home Reform) is formed when various citizen groups and long-term care ombudsman programs, convened by the National Gray Panthers' LTC Action Project, gather in Washington, DC, in June. Prior to attending a conference sponsored by the American Health Care Association, the groups meet to become acquainted and to develop recommendations to present at the conference in a united consumer voice.

During the 1980s and onward, the Voice was known for its staunch support for gay rights, and it published an annual Gay Pride issue every June. However, early in its history, the newspaper had a reputation as having a homophobic slant. While reporting on the Stonewall riots of 1969, the newspaper referred to the riots as "The Great Faggot Rebellion".[21] Two reporters, Howard Smith and Lucian Truscott IV, both used the words "faggot" and "dyke" in their articles about the riots. (These words were not commonly used by homosexuals to refer to each other at this time.) Smith and Truscott retrieved their press cards from the Voice offices, which were very close to the bar, as the trouble began; they were among the first journalists to record the event, Smith being trapped inside the bar with the police, and Truscott reporting from the street.[22] After the riot, the Gay Liberation Front (GLF) attempted to promote dances for gays and lesbians in the Voice, but were not allowed to use the words "gay" or "homosexual", which the newspaper considered derogatory. The newspaper changed its policy after the GLF petitioned it to do so.[23] Over time, the Voice changed its stance, and, in 1982, became the second organization in the US known to have extended domestic partner benefits. Jeff Weinstein, an employee of the paper and shop steward for the publishing local of District 65 UAW, negotiated and won agreement in the union contract to extend health, life insurance, and disability benefits to the "spouse equivalents" of its union members.[24]
The student voice movement today is being presented as a new thing, something invented by ambitious students determined to improve their schools. However, this simply is not true. In classrooms and education programs scattered across North America and around the world, students have been naming their own intentions for education for decades. Over the last twenty years, this call has become louder and more urgent than ever. (Corbett & Wilson, 1995; Rudduck, 2007; Fielding, 2001) They have been working for democracy and social justice throughout education, and many times, calling for more empowered, engaged roles for students in all sorts of places. (Klein, 2003; Dzur, 2013)
Despite that ruling, many students and adults continue to struggle in order to ensure students have First Amendment rights in schools today.[iv] The US Supreme Court also wavers in their support for student voice, alternating supporting students and denying their rights. This includes the 1988 Hazelwood decision, which ruled that student newspapers are not protected by First Amendment rights. (Verchick, 1991) In 2007, the Supreme Court ruled that schools can suppress student voice outside of schools as well, as long as students are at a school-supervised event. (Dickler, 2007)
Beane and Apple found that student voice work continued over the next three decades. They shared examples of students sharing in school design decisions along with teachers, administrators, parents, board members, and community organizations in Port Jarvis, New York, in 1972.
Taking a history from a patient presenting with hoarseness is similar to any other presenting complaint. Important red flags include a history of smoking, dysphagia, odynophagia or otalgia, stridor, haemoptysis and recent fevers, night sweats and unexplained weight loss.4,5 If any of these are present and the hoarseness is persistent, an urgent referral to an otorhinolaryngologist should be made. Hoarseness that is intermittent in nature is less likely to be due to a fixed lesion.6
If the history and examination suggest voice overuse or phonotrauma, voice rest should be recommended.9 It is important to educate patients that whispering is no better for the voice and should also be avoided. A referral for speech therapy will be particularly important for those patients who use their voice professionally.8 Vocal fold hydration by high fluid intake and steam inhalation or humidifiers has been shown to be an important component in improving the condition and efficiency of the vocal cords.7,8 Other vocal hygiene strategies include smoking and alcohol cessation and reducing caffeine intake.
A patient with laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) usually presents with a raspy voice. The most common additional symptoms are heartburn and chronic throat clearing.12 A trial of proton pump inhibitors and implementing lifestyle measures to limit the reflux should be initiated.5 Recent studies have shown that laryngopharyngeal reflux is overdiagnosed13 and if symptoms do not resolve after a trial of the management strategies mentioned above, a referral to an otorhinolaryngologist should be made and an alternative diagnosis pursued. LPR may also co-exist with more malignant pathology. ff782bc1db
