Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of respiratory detection instruments, in particular to a multifunctional respiratory filtering device. Background Art
[0002] Pulmonary function (spirometry) and fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) are of great clinical value in identifying airway and lung diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bronchial asthma, interstitial lung disease, etc.; evaluating airway inflammation and disease severity; evaluating the efficacy of drugs or other treatments; identifying the cause of dyspnea, diagnosing the location of lesions, and surgical evaluation. However, the pulmonary function breathing filter devices currently used in my country have problems such as insufficient bite force, lip leakage, and tongue blocking the tube. People with common diseases such as missing teeth, facial paralysis, and cerebrovascular accidents cannot cooperate and are unable to complete pulmonary function tests. Exhaled nitric oxide breathing filter devices have large differences in filters provided by different manufacturers, and some are even just a simple filter membrane. There is no unified standard breathing filter.
[0003] Lung function and airway inflammation assessment are important detection methods for respiratory diseases. The patient's lung function and exhaled nitric oxide often need to be tested simultaneously, requiring two different sets of respiratory filtration devices, which not only increases costs but is also complicated to use. It is not easy for patients to learn, the failure rate is high, and repeated guidance from technicians is required. Whether in terms of economy, time efficiency, or difficulty of use, the burden on patients and technicians has increased significantly.
[0004] Chinese utility model CN218356210U discloses a breath filter to prevent air leakage, which is used to tightly wrap the mouth of the examinee to prevent air leakage by setting an inner filter baffle and an outer filter baffle at the mouth position. However, it cannot be used for the detection of exhaled nitric oxide meter, and a nose clip is still required for pulmonary function testing. When using it, we found that the expiratory peak of pulmonary function is arc-shaped, without an expiratory peak, and cannot meet the flow rate capacity curve graphic quality control requirements (see Lian et al. Respirology. 2017; 22 (3): 527-532. doi: 10.1111 / resp. 12950), thereby affecting the reliability of pulmonary function test parameters. In addition, respiratory infectious diseases have emerged one after another in recent years, making airway examinations face severe prevention and control risks. The currently used breath filters use clean or sterile devices, which cannot meet the prevention and control requirements, and it is urgent to develop new antibacterial breath filter devices.
