Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of ventilator brackets, and more specifically, to a ventilator bracket for preventing water accumulation in ventilator pipelines. Background Art
[0002] In modern clinical medicine, ventilators, as an effective means of artificially replacing spontaneous ventilation function, have been widely used in respiratory failure caused by various reasons, anesthesia respiratory management during major surgery, respiratory support therapy and emergency resuscitation.
[0003] Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) refers to pneumonia that occurs in patients with endotracheal intubation or tracheotomy after 48 hours of mechanical ventilation. Pneumonia that occurs within 48 hours after mechanical ventilation or extubation also falls within the scope of VAP. [1][2] The condensed water in the ventilator pipeline has poor antibacterial properties, and the concentration of pathogens can be as high as 105cfu / mL [3] When using a ventilator, condensed water in the water bottle is often not dumped in time during clinical nursing work and accumulates in the pipeline. The condensed water containing pathogenic microorganisms is inhaled into the patient's airway, leading to the occurrence of VAP. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the water cup on the ventilator pipeline at the lowest position to reduce the impact of condensed water on treatment. In view of this, the inventor proposes a ventilator bracket for preventing water accumulation in the ventilator pipeline.
