Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of respiratory care technology, specifically to a respiratory function training device for preoperative respiratory endoscopy. Background Technology

[0002] Bronchoscopy (such as bronchoscopy) is an important tool for diagnosing and treating lung and airway diseases. However, this procedure is invasive and may affect a patient's respiratory function, especially in patients with pre-existing respiratory insufficiency (such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or post-partial pulmonary resection). The risk of complications such as hypoxemia and respiratory distress during and after the procedure is relatively high in these patients.

[0003] Traditional preoperative preparation typically focuses on psychological counseling and fasting guidance, with a lack of targeted training for respiratory function itself. While clinical practice includes instructing patients on deep breathing and effective coughing, issues remain regarding the difficulty in quantifying training effectiveness, patient compliance, and ensuring proper technique. There is a lack of specialized equipment that can objectively assess and effectively improve patients' preoperative respiratory muscle strength, vital capacity, and respiratory control.

[0004] Existing technologies include several respiratory trainers, such as respiratory motivators for rehabilitation or spirometers for sports training. However, these devices are often limited in function or complex in structure and expensive, making them unsuitable for widespread use as routine preoperative training tools in clinical departments (such as endoscopy centers). In particular, there is a lack of simple devices that can integrate respiratory filtration (simulating the airway barrier), provide visual, immediate feedback (such as pressure and duration), and enable repetitive, quantitative training to help patients effectively train their respiratory function preoperatively, potentially reducing intraoperative respiratory risks and improving surgical tolerance and safety.

A float 5 is disposed within the inner cavity of the air cylinder 4. A training component 6 is disposed within the inner cavity of the mounting base 3. The training component 6 includes a filter chamber 601 formed within the inner cavity of the mounting base 3, an air filter element 602 disposed within the inner cavity of the filter chamber 601, an outlet pipe 603 connected to the top of the inner cavity of the filter chamber 601, the other end of the outlet pipe 603 penetrating the mounting base 3 and extending into the inner cavity of the air cylinder 4, and an inlet pipe 604 connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the filter chamber 601, the other end of the inlet pipe 604 penetrating the mounting base 3 and extending to the outside of the mounting base 3. A monitoring component 7 is disposed at the top of the inner cavity of the air cylinder 4, including a pressure sensor 701 fixedly mounted at the top of the inner cavity of the air cylinder 4, and a pressure display screen adapted to the pressure sensor 701 fixedly connected to the top of the air cylinder 4. 702. The surface of the air cylinder 4 is provided with a range scale 703. The battery box 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1 and located on the left side of the mounting base 3. By integrating breathing training, air filtration, real-time monitoring and data display functions into one compact structure, it is specially designed for patients before endoscopic respiratory surgery. It can effectively train the patient's respiratory muscle strength and vital capacity. Through the monitoring component 7, especially the pressure sensor 701 and the pressure value display screen 702, the patient's blowing force can be converted into specific values ​​in real time and displayed, making the training effect measurable and recordable. At the same time, the range scale 703 on the surface of the air cylinder 4 and the rising height of the float 5 provide the user with direct visual feedback, which helps to maintain and improve training motivation. In addition, the air filter 602 in the training component 6 can provide a certain ventilation resistance while filtering the air, simulating the state of the human airway, making the training closer to the real breathing feeling and improving the effectiveness of the training. Example

[0025] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4The left side of the mouthpiece 2 is connected to the mounting head 9, which is inserted into the air inlet end of the air inlet pipe 604, making it easy to disassemble and assemble the mouthpiece 2 for disinfection or replacement. The float 5 is located above the air outlet end of the air outlet pipe 603 and fits tightly. Air outlets 10 are opened around the top of the air cylinder 4 to reduce the pressure inside the air cylinder 4, thereby aiding in rehabilitation training. A door 11 is provided on the surface of the mounting base 3 and located at the filter chamber 601. A sealing strip 12 is provided between the door 11 and the mounting base 3 to facilitate the regular replacement of the air filter element 602 and maintain the performance and hygiene of the equipment. A controller 13 is fixedly connected to the side of the battery box 8. A timer 14 and an on / off button 15 are provided on the surface of the controller 13 to facilitate the control of the single training time. The operation is simple and easy to learn.

[0026] The working principle is as follows: When using the device, ensure that the power supply is sufficient. The user should assume a comfortable sitting or semi-reclining position and insert the personal mouthpiece 2 into the port of the air inlet pipe 604 through the mounting head 9. Press the start / stop button 15 on the controller 13 to start the device. The user puts mouthpiece 2 in their mouth, exhales normally, then takes a deep breath, tightly wraps their lips around mouthpiece 2, and blows air into mouthpiece 2 at a uniform and sustained speed. The exhaled air passes through the air inlet pipe 604 and the air filter element 602 in the filter chamber 601, and then enters the bottom of the air cylinder 4 through the air outlet pipe 603. The airflow pushes the float 5 up along the air cylinder 4. The user can observe the height of the float 5 according to the range scale 703. At the same time, as the float 5 continues to rise, it will squeeze the pressure sensor 701. At this time, the pressure reading on the pressure value display screen 702 changes in real time. The goal is to keep the float 5 at a certain height as much as possible and keep the pressure reading stable. After a single exhalation, the gas is discharged from the air outlet 10 at the top of the air cylinder 4. The duration of the single exhalation is recorded by the timer 14. Combined with the maximum or average value of the pressure value display screen 702, the training effect is evaluated. The training can be repeated multiple times. After use, remove the nozzle 2 for cleaning and disinfection, or use the disposable nozzle 2 directly. Then, regularly open the box door 11 to replace the air filter 602 to avoid cross-infection.

[0027] The equipment used in this application is all of conventional models in the prior art. The control method is automatic control through a controller. The control circuit of the controller can be implemented by a person skilled in the art through simple programming, which is common knowledge in the field. Furthermore, since this application is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, the control method and circuit connection will not be explained in detail in this application.

[0028] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
