Tongue forceps cooperating with pharynx indirect laryngoscopy

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of a medical apparatus, and particularly relates to tongue forceps cooperating with pharynx indirect laryngoscopy. The tongue forceps comprise an outer curved baffle, wherein a connecting band is fixedly connected to the rear side of the outer curved baffle, an inner curved baffle is fixedly connected to the rear side of the connecting band, a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the lower end of the outer curved baffle, a limiting hole is formed in the front end surface of the fixing plate, a tongue depressor is movably connected to the inner wallof the limiting hole, a lamp bead and a miniature camera are mounted on the rear side of the upper end surface of the tongue depressor, and the inner curved baffle is placed between the inner side ofthe lip of a testee and teeth in a contraction manner, so that the connecting band outwards wraps the lip; and the outer curved baffle is located on the outer side of the lip, then one end of the tongue depressor penetrates through the limiting hole and enters the mouth of the testee. Through combination of lifting the other end of the tongue depressor, the tongue depressor is in contact with thelingual surface of the testee, and pressing downwards is performed, at this time, the lamp bead is started for illumination. The miniature camera is used, so that the image of the pharynx of the testee can be examined, and the pharynx of the testee can be sufficiently exposed conveniently for a long time for pharynx inspection.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a tongue depressor for indirect laryngoscopy of the pharynx. Background technique [0002] Indirect laryngoscopy is the most commonly used and simple pharyngeal examination method in otolaryngology-head and neck surgery clinics. During the examination, a light source should be provided by the integrated otolaryngology treatment table. The examiner wears a forehead mirror. The patient sits upright with his head slightly forward, opens his mouth, sticks out his tongue, and breathes through his mouth. The examiner wraps the front of the patient’s tongue with sterile gauze, and uses his thumb The middle finger gently fixes the tongue outside the front teeth, and the index finger touches the upper teeth. Hold the indirect laryngoscope in the right hand and enter it along the back of the patient’s tongue. The mirror surface is parallel to the tongue back, but not in contact wi...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, in clinical indirect laryngoscopy, the comprehensive treatment table of the ENT department must cooperate with the frontal mirror to provide the light source. At the same time, the examiner or the examinee cannot guarantee sufficient exposure of the pharyngeal cavity by using a sterile gauze tongue for a long time. Inconvenience, which in turn affects the test results
