Visual feeding function monitoring and rehabilitation supporting headgear for disabled old people

Abstract

The invention discloses a visual feeding function monitoring and rehabilitation supporting headgear for disabled old people, which comprises a training headgear, an annular patch, a swallowing organ monitoring module, an oral cavity training module and an anti-cough module, the swallowing organ monitoring module is used for judging the severity of disability according to the movement degree of each part of the oral cavity of the disabled old person in the feeding process, and the oral cavity training module is used for performing targeted training on each part according to specific data measured by the swallowing organ monitoring module. The cough prevention module is used for collecting generated saliva to prevent saliva from flowing out of mouth corners or choking disabled old people in the training process. By means of the swallowing organ monitoring module and the oral cavity training module, the severity of disability of all parts of the oral cavity of the disabled old people can be measured, and proper rehabilitation training can be conducted according to different damage degrees of swallowing organs.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a visual eating function monitoring and rehabilitation support headgear for the disabled elderly. Background technique [0002] Normal swallowing is the transfer of food from the mouth to the stomach. Because the disabled elderly have lost their ability to live on their own, they will have dysphagia during eating, accompanied by symptoms of muscle weakness. The dysphagia is caused by the jaw, lips, tongue, and soft palate. It is a clinical manifestation that the structure and function of organs such as throat and esophagus are damaged, and food cannot be safely and effectively delivered from the mouth to the stomach, especially in the oral preparation period during the swallowing exercise of the disabled elderly, the damage to the corresponding organs It is not easy to observe intuitively, and it is difficult to carry out accurate rehabilitation treatment on the damaged p...

Problems solved by technology

[0002] Normal swallowing is the transfer of food from the mouth to the stomach. Due to the loss of self-care ability of the disabled elderly, there will be dysphagia during the eating process, accompanied by symptoms of muscle weakness. The dysphagia is caused by the jaw, lips, tongue, soft palate , throat, esophagus and other organ structures and functions are damaged, and it is a clinical manifestation that food cannot be safely and effectively sent from the mouth to the stomach, especially in the oral preparation period during the swallowing movement of the disabled elderly, the damage of the corresponding organs It is not easy to observe intuitively, and it is difficult to perform accurate rehabilitation on the damaged parts

[0003] At present, medical staff usually carry out rehabilitation training for the severely disabled elderly. During the training process, the different damaged parts of the swallowing organs of the disabled elderly need to be trained by the medical staff using corresponding training tools. At the same time, in the training process Replacing tools is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and medical staff cannot make corresponding adjustments to the training level according to the damage to the organs of the disabled elderly; in addition, due to the reduced ability of the severely disabled elderly to control the mouth, the disabled during the training process The elderly will saliva unknowingly. If the medical staff cannot process the saliva in time, it is easy for the disabled elderly to be choked by the saliva, which will endanger the life safety of the disabled elderly. Therefore, we propose a method for the disabled Visual feeding function monitoring and rehabilitation support headgear for the elderly
