الوصف: The present article aims to identify the optimal cutoff score and the diagnostic accuracy for the English version of Speech Handicap Index (SHI) to screen out individuals with and without speech disorders in daily life.In this cross-sectional cohort study, a volunteer sample of 104 adult patients after total laryngectomy and 99 healthy controls in the United States completed the English version of SHI online questionnaire. Sensitivity and specificity were computed for a range of cut-off values using the Receiving Operating Characteristics (ROC) analysis to establish an optimal cutoff point for the SHI. Other measures of diagnostic accuracy, such as likelihood ratios (LR), positive predictive values (PPV), and negative predictive values (NPV) were also computed.Patients after total laryngectomy obtained a higher score than the healthy controls on the mean scores of SHI. According to the ROC analysis, an optimal cutoff score of 17 points determined by Youden index was identified on the head and neck cancer population with a sensitivity of 92.31%, specificity of 92.31%, PPV of 90.60%, NPV of 91.75%, LR + of 9.14, and LR- of 0.09.The cutoff score of the English version of SHI applied on the English-speaking population in the United States demonstrated promising diagnostic accuracy.
