AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Traditional oral topical drug delivery methods suffer from limited field of vision and unstable operation, making it difficult to accurately target the drug to the affected area and control the dosage, thus affecting the treatment effect.

Method used

A vision system consisting of a miniature camera, supplemental lighting, and a display screen, combined with a flexible and shapeable catheter, enables precise location of lesions. Digital management of drug dosage prevents medication from being coated onto healthy tissue, ensuring that the medication acts directly on the lesion.

Benefits of technology

It improves the targeting and effectiveness of drug therapy, reduces drug waste, ensures that the expected drug concentration is achieved in each treatment, and reduces patient discomfort caused by the procedure.

Abstract

This invention discloses an automated oral medication applicator, relating to the field of oral medication technology. It includes a shell, an internal medication storage box, a connecting cylinder connected to one side of the storage box, a flexible tube threaded onto the inner surface of the connecting cylinder, and a pipe connected to the output end of the flexible tube. An internal conveying component is also included, with its input end connected to the pipe and its output end connected to an output pipe. A conduit is threaded onto the output end of the output pipe. This automated oral medication applicator utilizes a visual system comprised of a miniature camera, a supplemental light, and a display screen to avoid limited visibility within the oral cavity. Even hidden lesions such as those in the throat or behind wisdom teeth can be clearly seen. Users can perform precise positioning under visual guidance. Combined with a flexible and shapeable conduit, this ensures the applicator head accurately reaches the lesion, effectively preventing medication from being applied to healthy tissue due to hand tremors or poor visibility, thereby improving the targeting and effectiveness of drug treatment.
