Definitions
- Invention is about an apparatus which contributes the neuromuscular compensatory mechanisms to develop, to regulate or to heal by activating the swallowing centers at brain stem and cortical level and stimulating esophagus covered with a rich nervous system network in patients who have swallowing disorder.
- stimulation is sent to the swallowing center in brain stem by stimulating the front facial arches by cooled laryngeal mirrors. Stimulations are underwent adaptation in that place and ignites the swallowing reflex.
- Esophagus motor function disorders achalasia, diffuse esophageal spasm
- motility disorders because of systemic diseases (scleroderma, amyloidosis, parkinson, etc.)
- motility disorders because of old age (presbyesophagus)
- swallowing problems because of esophagus in apoplexy patients can be counted in diseases concern esophagus which can be treated with thermal stimulations.
- the Invention is a transesophageal thermal tactile stimulation device in a form of a nasogastric tube and comprising radio-opaque ruler markers on it to determine the level of entrance to the esophagus.
- the nasogastric tube comprises at least one balloon that is coiled around and expandable to 1 -2 centimeters. The first balloon is properly placed to stimulate the upper esophagus section, the second balloon is properly placed to stimulate the central esophagus section and the third balloon is properly placed to stimulate the lower esophagus section separately or all together. Developing of compensation mechanism or regulation is achieved by giving cold and hot water simultaneously in to the three canals or one by one. That thermal stimulation of the receptors in esophagus causes central nervous system to be stimulated.
- Invention is a transesophageal thermal tactile stimulation apparatus, comprising a nasogastric tube (1 ), a feeding entrance (1 .1 ), an upper esophagus fluid entrance (1 .2), a central esophagus fluid entrance (1 .3), a lower esophagus fluid entrance (1 .4), a fluid exit (1 .5), a fluid exit canal (1 .5.1 ), an inner balloon fluid exit canal (1 .5.2), a nasogastric tube exit (1 .6), an upper esophagus balloon (2), a central esophagus balloon (2.1 ), a lower esophagus balloon (3), an entrance temperature sensor (4), an inner temperature sensor (5), a pressure sensor (6), a software (7), an external water source (8).
- Transesophageal thermal tactile stimulation apparatus is designed like a nasogastric tube which comprises a nasogastric tube exit (1 .6) that enables the patient to be fed.
- the tube has a proper length and width for both children and adults.
- the nasogastric tube (1 ) comprises the upper esophagus balloon (2), the central esophagus balloon (2.1 ) and the lower esophagus balloon (3) which are coiled around the tube.
- the nasogastric tube (1 ) comprises radio-opaque ruler markers on it to determine the level of entrance to the esophagus.
- the nasogastric tube (1 ) comprises the upper esophagus balloon (2), the central esophagus balloon (2.1 ) and the lower esophagus balloon (3) which can expand maximum 2 centimeters when the fluid is injected in them and they are coiled around the tube.
- the upper esophagus balloon (2), the central esophagus balloon (2.1 ) and the lower esophagus balloon (3) are placed on the nasogastric tube (1 ) with at least 1 centimeter spaces between them and with at least one coil. That design enables to stimulate the upper esophagus, central esophagus and the lower esophagus sections separately or simultaneously.
- the upper esophagus balloon (2), the central esophagus balloon (2.1 ) and the lower esophagus balloon (3) are in a structure that can pass through the nose when they are deflated and they can also expand when the fluid is injected in them.
- the continuous flow of the injected fluid through the upper esophagus fluid entrance (1 .2), the central esophagus fluid entrance (1 .3) and the lower esophagus fluid entrance (1 .4) is important for the esophagus area which is wanted to be cooled or heated. For that reason, the fluid exit (1 .5) is designed for retaking the injected fluid.
- the fluid exit canal (1 .5) is hidden inside of the nasogastric tube (1 ).
- the entrance temperature sensor (4) and the inner temperature sensor (5) are used to see if the inner temperature of the esophagus is reached at desired level and to prevent hot and cold damages on patient.
- the information that comes from those temperature sensors provides to hold the inner esophagus temperature level stable and at desired level by controlling the flow temperature of the water with the software (7), which comes from the external water source (8).
- the external water source (8) that comprises the software (7), let the water temperature to be adjusted with the adjusting buttons on it to the desired temperature.
- the balloon shaped sections between the upper esophagus fluid entrance (1 .2), the central esophagus fluid entrance (1 .3), the lower esophagus fluid entrance (1 .4) and the fluid exit (1 .5) canals can expand without causing a trauma to the esophagus. Those balloons can also dilate.
- Developing of compensation mechanism or regulation is achieved by giving cold and hot water simultaneously in to the upper esophagus fluid entrance (1 .2), the central esophagus fluid entrance (1 .3), the lower esophagus fluid entrance (1 .4) or one by one. That thermal stimulation of the receptors in esophagus causes central nervous system to be stimulated Invention can be used in patients with acute stroke and esophagus motility disorder.
- the nasogastric tube is one of the primary methods of feeding in the patients with swallowing disorder. Because of the invention can be used as a nasogastric tube, an extra implementation of nasogastric tube to the patient will not be necessary. Patients can be fed and be treated with a single product. Besides, the invention can archive the measurements of patients' data and can physically report when it is needed or email to the desired email addresses with the software (7).
