Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of medical device technology, and more particularly to a cannula assembly for trachea. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, patients who have undergone laryngeal cancer surgery or tracheotomy due to tracheal invasion need to wear a tracheostomy tube for a long time to maintain airway patency; however, existing products have significant shortcomings.
[0003] Traditional metal cannulas lack a cuff, meaning that if there is sudden bleeding in the laryngeal surgical area post-surgery, blood can flow directly into the lungs through the tracheostomy, leading to airway obstruction, respiratory distress, or even suffocation. Furthermore, during resuscitation, blood may have already entered the lower respiratory tract, increasing the difficulty of treatment and raising the mortality rate. Additionally, metal cannulas can interfere with CT and MRI scans, requiring temporary extubation, which increases airway risks.
[0004] However, existing cannula assemblies mostly employ a single design: either "with a cuff but no inner core" or "with an inner core but no cuff." Cannulas with a cuff but no inner core are prone to sputum and blood clots adhering to the inner wall, requiring complete removal during cleaning, which carries a significant operational risk. Cannulas with an inner core but no cuff cannot prevent bleeding from the surgical area from flowing into the lungs, still posing a risk of suffocation. In summary, existing products are insufficient to meet the multiple needs of postoperative emergency hemostasis and daily prevention of blockage. Summary of the Invention

Furthermore, an annular balloon is fitted onto the first cannula. A gas channel is provided within the wall of the first cannula, and the gas channel has an inlet and an outlet. Both the inlet and outlet are located on the outer peripheral wall of the first cannula, and the outlet communicates with the annular balloon.

[0012] According to some embodiments of the present invention, in a tracheal cannula assembly, the air outlet is disposed on the side wall of the slot.
[0013] According to some embodiments of the present invention, in a tracheal cannula assembly, the outer peripheral wall of the second cannula near the end of the annular airbag is provided with a chamfer.
[0014] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a tracheal cannula assembly has an openable flap at the end of the first cannula away from the annular airbag, the flap being used to open or close the port of the first cannula.

[0022] Currently, patients who have undergone laryngeal cancer surgery or tracheotomy due to tracheal invasion need to wear a tracheostomy tube for a long time to maintain airway patency; however, existing products have significant shortcomings.
[0023] Traditional metal cannulas lack a cuff, meaning that if there is sudden bleeding in the laryngeal surgical area post-surgery, blood can flow directly into the lungs through the tracheostomy, leading to airway obstruction, respiratory distress, or even suffocation. Furthermore, during resuscitation, blood may have already entered the lower respiratory tract, increasing the difficulty of treatment and raising the mortality rate. Additionally, metal cannulas can interfere with CT and MRI scans, requiring temporary extubation, which increases airway risks.
[0024] However, existing cannula assemblies mostly employ a single design: either "with a cuff but no inner core" or "with an inner core but no cuff." Cannulas with a cuff but no inner core are prone to sputum and blood clots adhering to the inner wall, requiring complete removal during cleaning, which carries a significant operational risk. Cannulas with an inner core but no cuff cannot prevent bleeding from the surgical area from flowing into the lungs, still posing a risk of suffocation. In summary, existing products are insufficient to meet the multiple needs of postoperative emergency hemostasis and daily prevention of blockage.
[0025] In response, this application proposes a tracheal cannula assembly 100, which is described below in conjunction with the appendix. Figure 1-4 This application describes a cannula assembly 100 for a trachea according to an embodiment of the present application.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, the tracheal cannula assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a first cannula 10, a second cannula 20, and an annular airbag 30.
[0027] The first sleeve 10 is fitted onto the second sleeve 20, such as Figure 2As shown, the inner wall of the first sleeve 10 is provided with a groove (not shown in the figure), and the outer peripheral wall of the second sleeve 20 is provided with an elastic buckle 23. The elastic buckle 23 engages with the groove, thus achieving a stable connection when the two are engaged. This not only ensures the integrity and strength of the overall component structure but also significantly improves its reliability and durability in practical applications. Furthermore, an annular airbag 30 is fitted around the outer periphery of the first sleeve 10. The main function of this airbag is to inflate it during clinical use, thereby effectively and reliably fixing the sleeve in the position within the trachea and simultaneously achieving a good airway seal to prevent gas leakage. To further support the inflation and deflation of the airbag, a dedicated gas channel is pre-designed inside the wall of the first sleeve 10. This channel is rationally laid out and has an air inlet and an air outlet 12 located on the outer peripheral wall of the first sleeve 10. The air outlet 12 is directly connected to the internal cavity of the annular airbag 30, allowing the operator to flexibly control the inflation and deflation of the airbag by injecting or withdrawing gas from the air inlet into the channel. This greatly enhances the applicability, ease of operation, and medical safety of the entire component.
[0028] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the tracheal cannula assembly 100 allows for detachable connection of the first cannula 10 and the second cannula 20 through the snap-fit of elastic buckles and slots. This allows the patient to remove the second cannula 20 separately for cleaning and replacement without removing the first cannula 10. Furthermore, an annular airbag 30 is fitted onto the first cannula 10. A gas channel is provided within the wall of the first cannula 10, with an inlet and an outlet 12 located on the outer peripheral wall of the first cannula 10. The outlet 12 communicates with the annular airbag 30. This allows air to be injected into the gas channel through the inlet, inflating the annular airbag 30 and preventing bleeding from the surgical area from flowing into the lungs, thus reducing safety risks.
[0029] In some embodiments, the inner wall of the first sleeve 10 is provided with a first internal thread 11, and the outer peripheral wall of the second sleeve 20 is provided with a first external thread 21. The first internal thread 11 and the first external thread 21 are threadedly engaged, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the annular airbag 30 is sleeved on the first sleeve 10. A gas channel is provided inside the wall of the first sleeve 10. The gas channel has an inlet and an outlet 12. The inlet and outlet 12 (as shown in the image) Figure 2 and Figure 3 The air outlets 12 shown are all located on the outer peripheral wall of the first sleeve 10, and the air outlets 12 are connected to the annular airbag 30.
[0030] It is understandable that, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the tracheal cannula assembly 100 includes a first cannula 10 located on the inner side, a second cannula 20 fitted on its outer side, and an annular cuff 30 surrounding the outermost layer. Specifically, the first cannula 10 is precisely fitted onto the outside of the second cannula 20, and the two are securely and tightly fitted together through a high-precision threaded connection structure. Specifically, the inner wall of the first cannula 10 is precision-machined to form a first internal thread 11, while the outer peripheral wall of the second cannula 20 is correspondingly machined with a matching first external thread 21. When the two are screwed together, a stable connection is achieved, which not only ensures the integrity and strength of the overall assembly structure, but also significantly improves the reliability and durability in practical applications. In addition, the annular cuff 30 is fitted around the outer periphery of the first cannula 10. The main function of this cuff is to inflate it during actual clinical use, thereby effectively and reliably fixing the position of the cannula in the trachea, while simultaneously achieving a good airway seal to prevent gas leakage. To further support the inflation and deflation of the airbag, a dedicated gas channel is pre-designed inside the wall of the first sleeve 10. This channel is rationally laid out and has an air inlet and an air outlet 12 located on the outer peripheral wall of the first sleeve 10. The air outlet 12 is directly connected to the internal cavity of the annular airbag 30, allowing the operator to flexibly control the inflation and deflation of the airbag by injecting or withdrawing gas from the air inlet into the channel. This greatly enhances the applicability, ease of operation, and medical safety of the entire component.
[0031] When applied to patients, the first and second cannulas 10 can be separated by rotating the second cannulas 20, thereby enabling cleaning and reducing the difficulty of cleaning. At the same time, air can be injected into the gas channel through the air inlet to inflate the annular airbag 30, thereby preventing bleeding from the surgical area from flowing to the lungs and reducing safety risks.
[0032] In this way, by providing a first internal thread 11 on the inner wall of the first sleeve 10 and a first external thread 21 on the outer peripheral wall of the second sleeve 20, the first internal thread 11 and the first external thread 21 are threaded together, so that the first sleeve 10 and the second sleeve 20 can be detachably connected. This allows the patient to remove the second sleeve 20 separately for cleaning and replacement without removing the first sleeve 10. Secondly, the annular airbag 30 is fitted onto the first sleeve 10. A gas channel is provided inside the tube wall of the first sleeve 10. The gas channel has an inlet and an outlet 12, both of which are located on the outer peripheral wall of the first sleeve 10. The outlet 12 communicates with the annular airbag 30. In this way, air can be injected into the gas channel through the inlet to inflate the annular airbag 30, thereby preventing bleeding from the surgical area from flowing to the lungs and reducing safety risks.
[0033] In some specific implementation cases, the cannula assembly used for endotracheal intervention further integrates two functional components: a switching valve (not shown in the figure) and a pressure-indicating balloon 40. The switching valve is precisely positioned at the inlet connection point, and its main function is to control whether external gas can enter the internal structure of the assembly. At the same time, the valve is adjustable, allowing for fine-tuning of the gas inflow rate and flow rate according to the actual needs of clinical operation, thereby improving the overall controllability of the operation.
[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the pressure-indicating balloon 40 can be connected to the first cannula 10 via a trachea, or the pressure-indicating balloon 40 can be placed on the outer surface of the first cannula 10 and connected to the annular balloon 30 via a dedicated internal connecting pipe, so that the two maintain dynamic consistency in air pressure, thereby reflecting the real-time pressure changes inside the annular balloon 30 in an instant and intuitive manner. In addition, the pressure-indicating balloon 40 is also equipped with a high-sensitivity pressure detection device, which can continuously monitor the pressure inside the balloon and feed back the real-time data to the monitoring system or operating interface, greatly assisting medical staff in accurately grasping the inflation status and pressure level of the balloon, ultimately effectively ensuring the safety of clinical procedures and the effectiveness of intervention measures.
[0035] In some specific implementations, the design of the indicator balloon typically includes one or more selectively operable vent structures 41. These vent structures 41 have flexible opening and closing functions, and can be adjusted accordingly based on preset control logic or external commands when specific operating conditions or actual needs change. By precisely controlling the opening and closing state of the vents 41, the release rate and total amount of gas or liquid filled inside the balloon can be effectively adjusted, thereby achieving refined management of the pressure level or total volume state inside the balloon. This design not only improves the controllability and adaptability of the balloon during use, but also enhances the performance and ease of operation of the entire system in complex application scenarios.
[0036] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a groove 13 extending continuously in the circumferential direction is precisely provided on the wall of the first sleeve 10. This groove 13 is ingeniously designed and precisely structured, specifically for accommodating and bonding at least a portion of the strip-shaped airbag 30. The annular airbag 30 can be securely and firmly embedded inside the groove 13. The width of the groove 13 is precisely calculated to be slightly larger than the actual size of the annular airbag 30 along its axis, thus providing sufficient and reasonable operating space for the smooth installation of the airbag and the subsequent inflation process. In particular, the bottom wall of the groove 13 is further machined with a second external thread 131. At the same time, the inner surface of the annular airbag 30 is correspondingly provided with a second internal thread that perfectly matches it. With the precise engagement and fit between the internal and external threads, the connection between the airbag and the first sleeve 10 can be reliably achieved, ensuring accurate positioning of their relative positions.
[0037] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a circular air outlet 12 specifically designed and machined for gas input is also provided on one side wall of the slot 13 structure. This air outlet 12 is connected to the air inlet via a gas channel integrated within the wall of the first sleeve 10. The air inlet can be connected to a high-pressure gas supply device installed outside the system via a high-pressure resistant, flexible connecting pipe. This design ensures that the gas medium can be efficiently and uniformly delivered to the internal cavity of the annular airbag 30, thereby ensuring that when the system detects a critical command or signal requiring inflation, the annular airbag 30 can quickly, stably, and reliably complete the inflation and deployment process, meeting its functional requirements.
[0038] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the second cannula 20 has a finely chamfered outer wall 22 on the side near the annular cuff 30, forming a gently sloping, smoothly transitioning bevel structure. This chamfered design significantly reduces the frictional and propulsion resistance of the cannula assembly when inserted into the human airway, making the entire insertion process smoother and less strenuous. It also effectively avoids accidental scratches or improper compression damage to the patient's tracheal mucosa and surrounding soft tissues, thereby greatly improving the overall safety of clinical procedures and the patient's comfort during treatment.
[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1As shown, at the end of the first cannula 10 furthest from the annular airbag 30, a hinged cap 50 is also fitted, which can be flexibly opened and closed. The cap 50 is connected to the first cannula 10 or the adhesive tape 61 via a connecting rope 51, or reliably connected to the cannula body via a micro-hinge mechanism. A high-performance sealing strip is provided on the contact surface, allowing the user to easily open the cap 50 or tightly seal the port of the first cannula 10 according to actual needs. This innovative design greatly facilitates a series of maintenance operations such as daily cleaning, thorough disinfection, visual inspection, or replacement of internal components, which is highly beneficial for ensuring the hygiene and functional integrity of the device during long-term use.
[0040] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the tracheostomy cannula assembly 100 is further equipped with a specially designed and optimized fixation structure 60 to enhance its stability and safety during clinical use. This fixation structure 60 mainly consists of an adhesive tape 61 and two high-strength straps 62. The adhesive tape 61 is made of a flexible material and can be tightly fitted and fixed to the outer wall of the first cannula 10, adhering to the patient's skin tissue. The two straps 62 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the adhesive tape 61, and each end is equipped with a medical-grade self-adhesive strip. These straps can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual size of different patients' necks and are firmly fixed through mutual adhesion, effectively preventing displacement or accidental dislodgement of the entire cannula assembly during use, ensuring that the device remains stable throughout the entire treatment cycle.
[0041] In some embodiments, the main material selected for the first sleeve 10 and / or the second sleeve 20 is medical-grade polycarbonate (PC) or polypropylene (PP) that meets medical standards. Both of these high-performance polymer materials have excellent biocompatibility and will not cause rejection reactions in the human body or adverse irritation to surrounding tissues. At the same time, they also have good mechanical strength, excellent impact resistance and stable chemical corrosion resistance, and can fully withstand the harsh requirements of repeated sterilization operations, imaging examinations and long-term use required in medical environments.
[0042] In some embodiments, the annular airbag 30 is made of medical high-elasticity silicone material. The annular airbag 30 is fixed to the outer side of the front end of the first sleeve 10 (1.0cm-1.5cm away from the opening of the first sleeve 10), with a thickness of 0.3mm. After inflation, it can fit tightly against the inner wall of the trachea. After inflation, it can directly prevent bleeding from the surgical area from flowing to the lungs and isolate the blood above the annular airbag 30 for timely cleaning. In some embodiments, the second sleeve 20 is made of medical-grade polypropylene (without metal components), and the gap between it and the inner wall of the first sleeve 10 is ≤0.3mm to ensure smooth ventilation; the front end of the second sleeve 20 is rounded (3mm radius) to avoid damaging the tracheal mucosa.
[0043] In some embodiments, the tail of the second sleeve 20 is provided with a non-slip handle and a rotation locking structure. During daily cleaning, there is no need to pull out the sleeve body. The second sleeve 20 can be pulled out by simply rotating to unlock it. After cleaning the phlegm crust, it can be reinserted and locked. The operation time is ≤20 seconds.
