Cold moxibustion device for treating swallowing dysfunction caused by stroke

Abstract

The invention discloses a cold moxibustion device for treating the swallowing dysfunction caused by a stroke. The cold moxibustion device is characterized by comprising a base, a swing air cylinder, a rocker, a guide slideway, a mouthpiece, a support, a hinge shaft, a controller and a cold moxibustion tool. The cold moxibustion tool comprises a moxibustion head, a temperature conduction rod and a semiconductor refrigerating piece. The lower end of the support is fixedly connected with the base. The upper end of the support is fixedly connected with the guide slideway. The inner side of the guide slideway is fixedly connected with the mouthpiece. After the temperature conduction rod penetrates the guide slideway and the mouthpiece and is connected with the guide slideway and the mouthpiece, one end of the temperature conduction rod is fixedly connected with the semiconductor refrigerating piece in an inserted manner, and the other end of the temperature conduction rod is fixedly connected with the moxibustion head. The semiconductor refrigerating piece is connected with the controller. Two ends of the hinge shaft are respectively fixedly connected with the base through the support. The lower end of the rocker is fixedly connected with the hinge shaft through a bearing. The upper end of the rocker is connected with the temperature conduction rod. The lower end of the swing air cylinder is fixedly connected with the base. The upper end of the swing air cylinder is hinged to the middle of the rocker. The swing air cylinder is connected with the controller. The cold moxibustion device is fast and convenient to operate, good in clinical efficacy, long in service life, and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical appliance, in particular to a cold moxibustion device for treating swallowing dysfunction caused by stroke, which has been used for cold moxibustion on remote acupoints of the pharynx. Background technique [0002] As the incidence of stroke increases year by year, more and more patients suffer from swallowing dysfunction. This symptom can easily lead to aspiration pneumonia, dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, malnutrition and other physiological diseases and psychological burden. . At present, the main treatment methods for dysphagia are rehabilitation physician training, electrical stimulation, acupuncture, etc., all of which require professional intervention and high acceptance by patients. Some patients with severe dysphagia need long-term nasal feeding. Due to swallowing dysfunction Western medicine believes that it belongs to tongue and pharyngeal muscle paralysis. Chinese medicine considers it to be impotenc...

Problems solved by technology

Therefore, clinically, -18 degree popsicle pecking moxibustion at remote acupoints is used to treat swallowing dysfunction. This popsicle is usually composed of a cylindrical plastic bag and cooling ice in the bag. Freeze in the refrigerator at -18 degrees to form a popsicle, then wrap one end of the popsicle with a towel and hold the end, insert the popsicle into the patient's mouth, use the other end of the popsicle to moxibuste the pharyngeal secluded points for 3-5 seconds, then take it out, and ask the patient to do it Repeat the swallowing action for about 10 minutes. Compared with other cold stimuli, this method has the advantage of increasing the temperature difference, increasing the penetration of cold air, stimulating meridian qi, and improving clinical efficacy. It is the moxibustion stimulation of the pharynx secluded points that the patient instinctively produces swallowing movements, and then the teeth instinctively bite the popsicle, resulting in a very short service life of the bag outside the popsicle; second, every time the popsicle is used, it needs to be frozen before use , resulting in inconvenient use
