Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a closed sputum suction tube. Background Art
[0002] Clinically, for patients who are unable to expectorate or have difficulty breathing due to coughing, artificial sputum suction is required to clear respiratory secretions and keep the airway open. Nursing staff can use the suction effect of negative pressure to suck out sputum and aspirated materials in the trachea through the suction tube. The closed suction tube can be connected to the ventilator and endotracheal tube, so that the patient can continue to use the ventilator to maintain the necessary positive airway pressure and therapeutic oxygen concentration during the suction process.
[0003] When receiving endotracheal intubation, the patient may experience choking and coughing, and the coughed-up sputum may enter the breathing tube connected to the intubation tube, or adhere to the inner wall of the breathing tube. Medical staff need to suction the sputum in time, otherwise the sputum reflux may cause the patient's airway to be blocked, causing the risk of hypoxia or suffocation. The time of the patient's choking is uncertain. In order to detect and deal with the patient's choking in time, the nursing staff needs to be beside the patient at all times to monitor the patient's condition, which increases the work pressure of the nursing staff and aggravates the tension of medical care resources.
