Pharyngeal-esophaegeal segment pressure prosthesis

摘要

A pharyngeal-esophageal segment pressure prosthesis includes a rigid support band having a U-shaped configuration having a pad assembly pivotably and rotatably mounted to its central portion for providing direct pressure to the pharyngeal-esophageal segment area. Connected to the ends of the band is a flexible strap mechanism for securing the device around the neck of the person.
