Grutio: System for Reproducing Swallowing Sensation Using Neck-Skin Movement

نویسندگان

چکیده

Many activities can be carried out in virtual reality environments, and at present, reproducing the activity of eating or drinking is one developing field. Virtual divided into two types: those with food mouth without placing mouth. studies have focused on changing taste, size, texture when drinking, but few recreating sensation actually One challenges virtually use drink how swallowing recreated esophagus. Herein we show Grutio, a device for by causing skin deformations that are same as during actual swallowing. When participants were asked to compare water sensation, 66% had stable pattern sensations over three-day experiment. who did not also felt least three times, all able feel The hardness viscosity swallowed could changed adjusting rate deformation. system allowed most users through calibration. Although there individual differences, results this study suggest applying externally neck reproduce internally.

Development of a System to Monitor Laryngeal Movement during Swallowing Using a Bend Sensor

BACKGROUND Swallowing dysfunction (also known as dysphagia), which results in a deterioration of nutritional intake, slows rehabilitation and causes aspiration pneumonia, is very common following neurological impairments. Although videofluorographic (VF) examination is widely used for detecting aspiration, an objective and non-invasive method for assessing swallowing function has yet to be esta...

Swallowing function and upper airway sensation in obstructive sleep apnea.

The objective of this study was to determine whether impaired upper airway (UA) mucosal sensation contributes to altered swallowing function in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We determined UA two-point discrimination threshold (2PDT) and vibratory sensation threshold (VST) in 15 men with untreated OSA and 9 nonapneic controls (CL). We then assessed swallowing responses to oropharyngeal fluid bo...
