Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically a fixing device for a sleep apnea screening instrument. Background Technology
[0002] Sleep apnea screening devices are a new type of medical device for early screening of sleep-related breathing disorders. Compared with other sleep monitoring devices, they are smaller, more comfortable, safer, cheaper, and easier for patients to cooperate with and complete. Therefore, they have been widely used in clinical practice in recent years and have significant research and practical value. They can transmit, record, and analyze blood oxygen saturation and heart rate during sleep with mobile phones or other electronic devices.
[0003] The existing sleep apnea screening devices require the blood oxygen monitoring probe to be worn on the patient's finger overnight to monitor the patient's blood oxygen saturation. However, because patients often turn over in their sleep, the blood oxygen monitoring probe can easily fall off, thus affecting the accuracy of the blood oxygen saturation data measured by the sleep apnea screening device.

[0028] Sleep apnea screening devices are a new type of medical device for early screening of sleep-related breathing disorders. Compared with other sleep monitoring devices, they are smaller, more comfortable, safer, cheaper, and easier for patients to cooperate with and complete. Therefore, they have been widely used in clinical practice in recent years and have significant research and practical value. They can transmit, record, and analyze blood oxygen saturation and heart rate during sleep with mobile phones or other electronic devices.
[0029] In related technologies, when patients turn over or move around while sleeping, the blood oxygen monitoring probe worn on their fingers can easily fall off, thus affecting the accuracy of the blood oxygen saturation detection data of the sleep apnea screening device.
[0030] To address some of the problems in related technologies, this application provides a fixing device for a sleep apnea screening instrument. When the pulse oximetry probe 13 needs to be worn, simply insert the connector at one end of the connecting wire of the pulse oximetry probe 13 into the finger sleeve of the glove 21 through the slot 23, and pass it out of the glove 21 through the through hole 22. Then, insert the pulse oximetry probe 13 into the finger sleeve corresponding to the finger to be worn through the slot 23. Next, insert the connector on the pulse oximetry probe 13 into the probe interface 12 and rotate the bidirectional threaded rod 27. The rotating bidirectional threaded rod 27 pushes the arc-shaped clamp 28 to move in opposite directions, thereby clamping and fixing the connecting wire on the pulse oximetry probe 13. Finally, the patient puts on the glove 21 and inserts the finger into the pulse oximetry probe 13.
[0031] This application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0032] Combination Figures 1-3 This application provides a fixing device for a sleep apnea screening instrument, including a sleep apnea screening instrument body 1. The sleep apnea screening instrument body 1 includes: a probe interface 12 provided on one side of the main unit 11; a blood oxygen monitoring probe 13 disposed on the probe interface 12; a strap 15 disposed on the outside of the main unit 11; and a fixing component 2 disposed on the blood oxygen monitoring probe 13. The fixing component 2 includes: a glove 21 covered on the outside of the blood oxygen monitoring probe 13; a through hole 22 penetrating the fingertip of the glove 21; a slot 23 disposed on the finger sleeve of the glove 21; a support frame 26 disposed on one side of the main unit 11 and located at the insertion interface of the blood oxygen monitoring probe 13; an arc-shaped clamp 28 symmetrical to the inside of the support frame 26; and a bidirectional threaded rod 27 penetrating the support frame 26 and the arc-shaped clamp 28.
[0033] In use, the main unit 11 is worn on the patient's chest via the strap 15. Then, the connector at one end of the pulse oximetry probe 13 is inserted through the slot 23 into the finger sleeve of the glove 21, and then passes through the through hole 22 outside the glove 21. Next, the pulse oximetry probe 13 is inserted through the slot 23 into the finger sleeve corresponding to the finger to be worn. Then, the connector on the pulse oximetry probe 13 is inserted into the probe interface 12, and the bidirectional threaded rod 27 is rotated. The rotating bidirectional threaded rod 27 pushes the arc-shaped clamp 28 to move towards each other, thereby... The connecting wire on the pulse oximetry probe 13 is clamped and fixed. Finally, the patient puts on gloves 21 and inserts their fingers into the pulse oximetry probe 13, so that the host 11 can monitor the patient's saturation through the pulse oximetry probe 13. This increases the stability of the pulse oximetry probe 13 on the patient's fingers while sleeping at night and the stability of the connection between the pulse oximetry probe 13 and the host 11. It reduces the risk of the pulse oximetry probe 13 being pulled off or the connector of the pulse oximetry probe 13 being disconnected when the patient turns over or moves while sleeping.
[0034] In some embodiments, the wrist opening of the glove 21 is provided with a tightening strap 24 and is secured by Velcro to increase the stability of the patient's hand when wearing the glove 21.
[0035] In some embodiments, the outer side of the glove 21 is provided with a storage bag 25 that matches the finger cots on the glove 21. When the finger cots without the blood oxygen monitoring probe 13 are not to be worn, they can be folded and stuffed into the storage bag 25 for storage, which increases the comfort of the patient wearing the glove 21.
[0036] In some embodiments, the support frame 26 includes: a telescopic rod 261 symmetrical to one side of the host 11 and located outside the interface on the host 11; a support frame 262 disposed at one end of the telescopic rod 261. When the connector on the blood oxygen monitoring probe 13 is to be inserted into the probe interface 12, the connector is passed through the support frame 262 and pushed into the probe interface 12, while the telescopic rod 261 is pushed to retract, so as to prevent the support frame 26 from affecting the insertion of the connector on the blood oxygen monitoring probe 13 into the probe interface 12.
[0037] In some embodiments, a spring 263 is provided inside the telescopic rod 261. When the connector on the blood oxygen monitoring probe 13 is inserted into the probe interface 12 and the finger is released, the support frame 262 is reset by the elasticity of the spring 263 inside the telescopic rod 261.
[0038] In some embodiments, a slider 29 is provided on the outer side of the arc-shaped clamp 28, and a groove 291 that matches the slider 29 is provided on the inner side of the support frame 262 to support the arc-shaped clamp 28 and prevent the arc-shaped clamp 28 from rotating with the bidirectional threaded rod 27.
[0039] In some embodiments, the inner side of the arc-shaped clamp 28 is provided with a silicone pad 281 that matches the connecting wire on the blood oxygen monitoring probe 13, which increases the anti-slip property of the arc-shaped clamp 28 in holding the connecting wire on the blood oxygen monitoring probe 13.
[0040] In some embodiments, the top of the host 11 is provided with a nasal tube interface 14 for connecting a nasal tube, and the host 11 records the airflow from the patient's mouth and nose.

Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples. In addition, those skilled in the art can combine and integrate the different embodiments or examples described in this specification.
