SINGLE-USE ORAL PROTECTOR ESPECIALLY FOR USE IN ELECTROCONVULSIVE THERAPY

摘要

An oral protector (10), especially for use by patients during electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) consists of a flat unitary member which is preferably stamped from a flat sheet of material. The protector (10) is elastic and formed of a closed-cell material, such as polyurethane plastic resin or artificial rubber. It has an elongated, generally elliptical shaped central opening (13) which acts as an air passage.
