This project aims to design and develop a portable therapy device for Parkinson's patients suffering from the swallowing disorder known as dysphagia. The device based on the VitalStim NMES protocol integrates sensors and electrodes to induce electrical current to specific (which are patient-specific) throat muscles, which helps in muscle re-education. By thorough research of the medical and human condition, feedback, and guidance from medical professionals, the design aims to be a patient-friendly device that provides tailored therapy that tracks the progress of the user's muscle response over time. The result will be a device that aims to allow the patient easy access to effective therapy without having to journey to the hospital and enjoy their gastronomic life without pains.
