Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to medical apparatus and specifically relates to a tracheal intubation tooth pad. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the practice of medical first aid and intensive care, tracheal intubation is a crucial life support measure. It ensures the unobstructed airway of patients by establishing an artificial airway, and provides a direct access for oxygen supply and drug administration. However, after the operation of tracheal intubation is completed, a common problem faced is the stability of the tracheal tube in the patient's oral cavity. Because the tracheal tube needs to be left in the patient's oral cavity for a long time, the patient's chewing or biting action may cause the tracheal tube to be accidentally closed in the unconscious or conscious state. In this case, the patient may suffer from the emergency situation of being unable to breathe or having severely obstructed breathing, which not only hinders the normal treatment process, but also greatly delays the patient's recovery speed. More seriously, it may even directly threaten the patient's life safety and cause suffocation and other fatal risks.

[0003] In view of this clinical challenge, Chinese patent CN202069975U proposes an innovative solution - anti-bite adult tracheal tube. The design ingeniously sets an anti-bite identification layer on the tracheal tube body, especially at the key position about 22 to 24 centimeters away from the end of the tube. This design aims to enhance the biting resistance of this area through specific materials or structures, reducing the risk of being closed. Furthermore, in order to improve the comfort of patients and effectively prevent biting, a soft tooth protection layer is also covered outside the anti-bite identification layer. This protective layer, with its mild and tough characteristics, effectively avoids the tracheal tube from being closed due to biting, thereby ensuring the smooth breathing of patients and reducing a series of complications caused by poor breathing.

[0004] Although the above-mentioned patent has achieved remarkable results in preventing the tracheal tube from being closed, in actual application, medical staff have encountered new difficulties: due to the addition of a soft tooth protection layer outside the tracheal tube, the insertion of the traditional sputum suction tube becomes extremely difficult. Sputum suction is an important nursing step to remove secretions from the patient's oral cavity and respiratory tract, which is crucial for maintaining clean respiratory tract and preventing lung infection. Therefore, this limitation in design is not conducive to timely and effective management of secretions in the patient's oral cavity, which may increase the risk of respiratory tract infection and affect the treatment effect.

[0020] In view of the disadvantages that the sputum suction tube is not easy to insert in the prior art. After careful analysis by the inventor, it is found that the main reason for the above technical problems is that a soft dental protection layer is additionally provided outside the tracheal tube, which makes the insertion of the traditional sputum suction tube extremely difficult. Sputum suction is an important nursing step for removing secretions in the oral cavity and respiratory tract of patients, and is crucial for maintaining clean respiratory tract and preventing lung infection. Therefore, the limitation in this design is not conducive to timely and effective management of secretions in the oral cavity of patients, which may increase the risk of respiratory tract infection and affect the treatment effect. Based on the above analysis, the inventor designs a tracheal intubation dental pad with a sputum suction tube, which can prevent the tracheal tube from being closed by biting, and is beneficial to suctioning the secretions in the oral cavity of patients.

[0021] As Figures 1 to 3As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, tracheal tube tooth pad includes upper tooth pad 1, lower tooth pad 2, sputum suction tube 3 and clamp 4, and sputum suction tube 3 is rectangular tube and is used to suck out secretion in patient's oral cavity, upper tooth pad 1 is installed at the top surface of sputum suction tube 3, lower tooth pad 2 is installed at the bottom surface of sputum suction tube 3, and clamp 4 is arranged at the side of sputum suction tube 3 and is used to fix tracheal tube. Sputum suction tube 3 is equipped with bandage 5 on both sides, and two bandages 5 are connected by magic tape. Bandage 5 is arranged between upper tooth pad 1 and clamp 4 and has avoiding hole 51. The bandage is wound around the head of the patient, and the sputum suction tube 3 and the tracheal tube are fixed in the oral cavity, so that displacement or falling is not easy to occur. The tracheal tube can be inserted into the oral cavity through the avoiding hole 51, and the bandage 5 is avoided from affecting the operation of the tracheal tube.

[0022] The upper tooth pad 1 is arc-shaped, and the upper tooth pad 1 is provided with an upper tooth groove 11 located at the top of the upper tooth pad 1 and recessed in the upper tooth pad 1 in a U shape. The lower tooth pad 2 is arc-shaped, and the lower tooth pad 2 is provided with a lower tooth groove 21 located at the bottom of the lower tooth pad 2 and recessed in the lower tooth pad 2 in a U shape. The upper tooth pad 1 and the lower tooth pad 2 are both made of soft transparent silica gel material. The upper tooth pad 1 and the lower tooth pad 2 are both arc-shaped, and the upper tooth groove 21 and the lower tooth groove 22 are both in a U shape, which conforms to the structure of human oral cavity and is conducive to protecting the teeth, gums and oral mucosa of the patient.

[0023] The clamp 4 includes a frame 41 and a fixing member 42, the fixing member 42 includes a screw rod 43, pressing plates 44 respectively arranged at both ends of the screw rod 43 and handles 45, the screw rod 43 passes through the frame 41 and is threadedly connected with the frame 41, the pressing plates 44 are located in the frame 41, and the handles 45 are used to press the tracheal tube passing through the frame 41 after rotating the screw rod 43.
