7 results about "Thyroid cartilage" patented technology

The thyroid cartilage is the largest of the nine cartilages that make up the laryngeal skeleton, the cartilage structure in and around the trachea that contains the larynx. It does not completely encircle the larynx; only the cricoid cartilage does.

Fixation devices for thyroid cartilage

PendingJP2026084204ASurgeryAnatomyFractured bone
To provide a thyroid cartilage fixation device with a novel configuration that can suppress fracture. [Solution] The thyroid cartilage fixation device is a thyroid cartilage fixation device used in type 2 thyroplasty, and comprises an anterior piece positioned from the cut end surface of the incised thyroid cartilage to the anterior surface and a posterior piece positioned on the posterior surface of the thyroid cartilage, and comprises a plurality of clamping parts that fit onto the respective cut ends of the thyroid cartilage facing each other, and a bridging part that connects the plurality of clamping parts, and the bridging part has a plurality of pores that are dispersed substantially uniformly so as not to form clusters among adjacent pores, and the porosity of the pores formed in the bridging part when viewed from the entire bridging part is 0.5 to 4.5%.

Cricothyrotomy medical training device and method

PendingUS20260204182A1Human bodyCricothyroid membrane
A cricothyrotomy medical training device includes a ribbed tube representative of a human trachea, the ribbed tube having a first end and a second end. A first protrusion extends from the first end of the ribbed tube, the first protrusion being representative of a human thyroid cartilage. A second protrusion extends from the ribbed tube near the first end, the second protrusion being representative of a human cricoid cartilage. The second protrusion is longitudinally spaced between the first end and the second end. A first marking material is disposed at the first and second protrusions for representing a location of human skin. A second marking material disposed between the first and second protrusions to identify a location of a human cricothyroid membrane.

Microstructured artificial larynx device

The microstructure artificial laryngeal device provided by the application comprises a micro-porous structure audio sensor, a lower computer and an upper computer, wherein the micro-porous structure audio sensor is used for detecting a vibration signal of a throat and converting the vibration signal into a resistance signal; the lower computer is used for filtering and processing the resistance signal to remove noise interference; and the upper computer is used for accurately identifying audio information in the processed resistance signal. The micro-porous structure audio sensor is attached at a skin surface of a thyroid cartilage, the lower computer is worn at a neck, and the upper computer is worn at a small arm. The microstructure artificial laryngeal device provided by the application can be directly attached to a throat of a patient without being installed in the patient's body, thereby avoiding discomfort of the patient, in addition, the vibration signal of the throat can be better sensed through the micro-porous structure audio sensor, thereby completing sound detection, and in addition, the lower computer for removing noise interference is arranged, and the accuracy of speech recognition can be improved.

Internal laryngeal muscle injection tool

ActiveUS12551616B1SurgeryMedical devicesAnatomyPartial larynx
A silicone implant is fixed onto the thyroid cartilage and the implant has a guide channel extending therethrough. The placement allows fixation to the cartilage by blade portions on opposite sides of the implant, with the guide channel being positioned in front of the muscles to be treated. The implant enables safe, accurate, and repeatable injections into internal laryngeal muscles under local anesthesia, and simplifies surgical access, increases accuracy, and reduces risks associated with traditional techniques.

Post-stroke patient swallowing function evaluation and training instrument based on biofeedback

The invention discloses a post-stroke patient swallowing function evaluation and training instrument based on biofeedback, and belongs to the technical field of medical rehabilitation equipment. The device comprises a signal acquisition module, a signal processing module, a data analysis module, a feedback output module and a power management module. A 64-channel flexible electrode array is used for collecting electromyographic signals, a 9-axis inertial measurement unit is used for tracking six-degree-of-freedom movement of the throat, a double-channel microphone is used for collecting acoustic signals, and a double-channel pressure sensor is used for detecting pressure of tongue bones and thyroid cartilages. The electromyographic signals are reconstructed into a three-dimensional space-time thermodynamic diagram through radial basis function interpolation, and four modal data are fused through a deep learning model to achieve automatic swallowing phase recognition and anomaly detection. And visual, auditory and tactile three-channel real-time biological feedback training is provided. According to the invention, multi-dimensional accurate evaluation, multi-modal real-time feedback and intelligent adaptive training are realized, and the evaluation accuracy of the swallowing function and the rehabilitation training effect are improved.
