| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study found that the sensory nerves distributing to the area around the trigger point of jaw opening reflex were the branches of the lingual nerve. In the actual clinical setting, our findings will be available. Caregivers need to establish a support environment where patients are motivated during swallowing training and can expand their skills. An anatomical site in the oral cavity can be used to trigger the jaw opening reflex in patients with pseudobulbar palsy who have difficulty opening the mouth. Nurses should try to provide specific training guidance based on the morphological evidence.
