Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of rehabilitation equipment, and specifically to a fully automatic mouth opening exerciser for radiotherapy patients. Background Art

[0002] Radiotherapy is the main treatment for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. After radical radiotherapy, patients may have difficulty opening their mouths due to fibrosis of the temporomandibular joint and masticatory muscles. If patients can persist in mouth opening exercises of a certain intensity after radiotherapy, the incidence of mouth opening difficulties will be greatly reduced. Although medical staff have emphasized the importance of mouth opening exercises to patients and taught them how to exercise, many patients did not exercise as required. In addition, the exercise methods are boring and lack an intuitive and visual effect observation indicator, which makes patients tired of exercise and has low compliance, resulting in an increased incidence of mouth opening difficulties. Currently, most common mouth opening exercise devices are manually controlled. During the operation, it is not easy to control the opening and closing angle and frequency. When the force is large, muscle tearing is prone to occur. The exercise process is also relatively boring, which makes many patients easily give up halfway, resulting in training often failing to reach the prescribed range, low exercise compliance, and increased incidence of mouth opening difficulties.
