PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To stably and accurately acquire swallowing tongue pressure when a measuring object person naturally performs swallowing motion and reducing a burden of the measuring object person.SOLUTION: A swallowing tongue pressure measuring probe 10 includes: a balloon 12 that is inserted into an oral cavity of a measuring object person whose swallowing tongue pressure is measured and composed of an elastic material and a hollow tube part 11 to which the balloon 12 is connected, where the hollow tube part 11 is connected to a pressure detection part. The swallowing tongue pressure measuring probe 10 further includes a supply tube 20 for supplying a fluid into the oral cavity of the measuring object person.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1COPYRIGHT: (C)2018,JPO&INPIT【課題】被測定者が自然に嚥下動作を行っているときの嚥下時舌圧を正確にかつ安定して得ることができるようにするとともに、被測定者の負担を軽減する。【解決手段】嚥下時舌圧測定用プローブ10は、嚥下時舌圧を測定する被測定者の口腔内に挿入される弾性材からなるバルーン12と、バルーン12が接続される中空管部11とを備えており、中空管部11が圧力検知部に接続される。嚥下時舌圧測定用プローブ10は、被測定者の口腔内に流動物を供給する供給管20を備えている。【選択図】図1
