Description

A kind of oral cavity detection system
Technical field
The present invention relates to medical science, particularly relate to a kind of oral cavity detection system.
Background technology
Snoring, has another name called and snores, be medically called " sleep-respiratory termination syndrome ".It relaxes with respiratory tract, the morphologic localization in tongue body muscle and oral cavity changes relevant, snore be pharyngeally when sleeping to loosen, the root of the tongue falls behind portion, causes airway narrows, air-flow by time cause vibration and the sound that produces.According to statistics, the people of 40% is had to snore in adult.Snoring both affected sleep, also closely related with the disease such as hypertension, even in sleep, also may occur asphyxia.Owing to snoring, sleep-respiratory is suspended repeatedly, cause brain, blood severe depletion of oxygen, form hypoxemia, and bring out hypertension, brain cardiopathia, arrhythmia, myocardial infarction, angina pectoris.Night respiration time out was easily died suddenly in morning more than 120 seconds.
At present medically generally take dietetic therapy for snoring, Drug therapy, instrument treatment (such as continuous positive pressure venti lation machine and mouth rectify device), need if desired to adopt operative treatment.Operative treatment generally will select different operation methods according to the plane of blocking, and the sufferer if any nasal obstruction should carry out the operation of nose, makes nasal meatus unobstructed.Pharyngeal narrow sufferer can row PPP, and this operation mainly by cut-out uvula and tonsil, increases pharyngeal gap, thus treatment snoring, and it is the most frequently used operation method for the treatment of snoring at present and sleep apnea.
When sufferer needs to carry out the operative treatment of snoring, the size configurations in oral cavity is an extremely important detected parameters, the distance especially between the corners of the mouth; Distance between palatopharyngeal arch; Palate hangs down and distance between frenulum of upper lip.Whether the dimensional parameters in above-mentioned oral cavity is related to operation can carry out smoothly.The detection of existing mouth-dimension generally adopts the method for manual measurement, such as, adopt distance measurement ruler, and its measurement result is deeply by the impact of external factor.External factor comprises environmental factors and manual operation factor, the degree that such as dip stick and sufferer face is free, angle when dip stick is measured and orientation, sufferer facial expression is nervous, the measurement error that clinical experience and operant skill etc. the factor of medical worker causes, all by the accuracy that the dimensional parameters greatly reducing oral cavity detects, serious measurement error also may cause malpractice.
