A kind of air-flow sounding electronic auxiliary system and method based on reed artificial larynxTechnical field
The air-flow sounding electronic auxiliary system based on reed artificial larynx that the present invention relates to a kind of, belongs to field of medical technology.
Background technique
If middle and advanced stage laryngocarcinoma involves vocal cords, vocal cords ifs, can not retain, and need row total laryngectomy;And vocal cord vibration and larynx and mouthThe transmitting of airstream vibration between pharynx is language forming process the most basic and important.It loses vocal cords and complete air-flow passesChannel is sent, prevent Laryngectomy patient has seriously affected the quality of life of postoperative patient from autonomous sounding.
Reconstruction for Laryngectomy sounding, the continuous exploratory development of people also fail to find and restore sounding energy completelyThe method of power;It is mainly the following vocal technique at present:
1, esophageal phonation method is in the stage of no mechanical or instrument help, and oesophagus sounding is almost that larynx is cut patient entirely and " saidThe unique channel of words ", the principle of this method are using the pleat of postoperative throat or the introitus oesophagi of constriction as " substituting vocal cords ",The traction force as " substitution vocal cords " is shunk using chest pressure and cricopharyngeus, air column in oesophagus is made to shake by way of belchMovable property gives birth to fundamental tone, then composition language is processed by pharynx, nose, mouth, tongue, lip, tooth.
This method needs patient greatly patience and willpower to receive system as the more original postoperative method of voice productionGuidance admits air into oesophagus and completes subsequent process to master the technique;And the formation of short wind or soft tissue scar is allIt is likely to become the bad condition for hindering sounding.The sound of sending is usually more indistinct discontinuous due to own bodies condition difference.
2, voice reconstruction operation tracheae fistulization: such method is to carry out fistulization suture shape with one section of mucous membrane of esophagus and tracheaeAt the sounding channel of replacement, such method operating difficulty is smaller, but since fistulization size is difficult to control accurately, it is postoperative to oesophagus intoEating channel, there may be obstacles, accidentally inhale the risk of infection in addition, are usually unsuccessfully difficult to reach sounding effect;And for invading rangeThe patient for more extensively needing resection of esophageal, even more cannot achieve.As the improvement of this art formula, replaced with hollow silicone rubber tube by oesophagusThe sounding channel that mucous membrane is formed, improves the success rate of technique to a certain extent, however rubber tube high frequency of replacement, and 1Rubber tube will be replaced by modus operandi within~2 years.
3, external mechanical larynx
(1) reed-type artificial larynx: being the role that reed or rubber membrane are served as to removed vocal cords, is placed in throat laryngocarcinoma artAt after-opening, fundamental tone is generated by the airstream vibration diaphragm of its opening, then be admitted to together with air-flow by the transmission of rubber tubeOral cavity rear portion carries out language processing, generates language.But it also has the limitation of oneself, needs to pacify chaffy box cover and cutsMouth, which fits closely, achievees the effect that flow conductance and vibrating diaphragm, and the patient of laryngocarcinoma total laryngectomy, notch can not be required to reachThe regular notch of same size will lead to gas leakage with cover box stickiness difference, be unable to reach sounding effect.
(2) artificial electronic larynx: being that can issue one the electronics for continuing buzzing and causing tissue vibration using battery as powerDevice is fixed on the more gentle soft position of neck, causes the air concussion of bottleneck throat by shaking tissue to generate sound wave thenOropharynx restructuring language.Such machinery sounding is coherent, can long-time sounding, to postoperative patient physical qualification without particular/special requirement;ButIt needs patient to vacate a hand electronic vibration device is tightly fastened in neck to guarantee smoothly to vibrate throat's air;It need to also send outSynchronous control switch when sound, to mitigate voice and improve the readability of language.And as assist sounding instrument, its cost compared withHeight, many postoperative patient economic conditions are unbearable.
(3) (patent No.: being a kind of improved cyborg 200910090589.8) to air pressure type base frequency-adjusted electronic artificial throatWork larynx does not change during entirely speaking for the tone for the sound that artificial electronic larynx generates, causes artificial electronic larynx languageThe sound disadvantage different with normal voice quality detects the variation of the air pressure at user's fistula mouth in gas hood by air pressure induction partSignal adjusts the fundamental frequency of glottis wave signal caused by artificial electronic larynx in real time.The change of glottis wave fundamental frequency can generate differentTone, to further increase the intelligibility of speech.However, therefore cost is also correspondingly improved, it is difficult to universal.
Summary of the invention
