概括
这项研究比较了老年人使用舌表仪 (TO) 和爱荷华州口腔表现仪 (IOPI) 测量语言压力. 虽然相关,但TO始终产生较低的压力读数,表明需要特定设备的规范.
科学领域:
- 老年学是一门学科.
- 语音和听力科学 语言和听力科学
- 生物医学工程 生物医学工程
背景情况:
- 精确测量语言压力对于评估吞和语音功能至关重要,特别是在老年人群中.
- 现有的仪器,如爱荷华州口腔表现仪 (IOPI) 提供规范性数据,但新的设备需要验证.
研究的目的:
- 为了比较Tongueometer (TO) 和爱荷华口腔表现仪 (IOPI) 之间的语言压力生成测量.
- 为了评估设备在三个任务中的一致性:最大同位压力 (MIP),常规努力唾液吞 (RESS) 压力和努力的唾液吞压力 (ESP).
- 为了评估这些措施在典型的老龄化,社区生活的成年人.
主要方法:
- 一个多站点,前性,随机的在主体内设计研究.
- 八十七名55岁及以上的成年人参与了这项研究.
- 在MIP,RESS和ESP任务期间,使用TO和IOPI测量语言压力.
主要成果:
- 在所有任务中,在TO和IOPI测量之间观察到强烈的正相关性 (Pearson's r = .780到 .874).
- 林的一致性相关系数表明MIP (ρc = .78) 和ESP (ρc = .61) 的中等一致性,而RESS (ρc = .47) 的弱一致性.
- 与IOPI相比,TO始终测量了较低的语言压力 (< .001).
结论:
- 舌表 (TO) 显示了与爱荷华州口腔表现仪器 (IOPI) 在老年成年人中产生语言压力的类似模式.
- 然而,TO产生的压力值明显低于IOPI.
- 需要特定于TO器件的规范值,或者必须制定IOPI规范的转换公式以获得准确的临床应用.

Sites for measuring blood pressure
Blood pressure measurement is a fundamental clinical procedure, providing crucial data for assessing cardiovascular health. Among the various sites for this measurement, the brachial and popliteal arteries are predominantly utilized due to their accessibility and the reliability of their readings. This lesson delves into the anatomical significance, methodology, and considerations of measuring blood pressure at these locations.

Special considerations while measuring blood pressure
When assessing blood pressure (BP), healthcare professionals must consider various factors and potential unexpected outcomes to ensure accurate readings and provide proper patient care. Adhering to these guidelines is essential to achieving the most reliable results.
Monitoring Both Arms:
Monitoring BP in both arms during the initial assessment is advisable, as the systolic value may differ by five to ten mm Hg between arms. For subsequent BP assessments, use the arm with the higher reading.

Assessment of the Mouth
A thorough mouth assessment, including inspection and palpation of the lips, gums, tongue, tonsils, uvula, and pharynx, is crucial in detecting potential health issues. Diseases ranging from oral cancer to systemic conditions like diabetes could be identified early through careful oral examination. This article provides a detailed guide on conducting a comprehensive mouth assessment.
Mouth Inspection
The inspection begins with visually examining the mouth for symmetry, color, and size.
