Paradoxical vocal fold motion (PVFM) is involuntary closure of the vocal folds during inspiration, often presenting in children and young adults. Although common symptoms and triggers are known, differences in clinical presentation based on patient demographics are unknown. This study characterizes differences in clinical presentation of pediatric PVFM based on age, sex, and race/ethnicity.
