Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tracheal intubation, in particular to an air bag auxiliary device for tracheal intubation treatment. Background Art
[0002] With the changes in living environment and dietary structure, the global prevalence of obesity has increased. When obese patients gain weight, their oxygen consumption also increases; because of various problems such as chest wall thickening and fat accumulation, their breathing work increases, and they are more likely to have oxygenation disorders; while the increase in oxygen consumption will increase the body's production of carbon dioxide, which can lead to obesity hypercapnia. Obese patients have increased abdominal pressure and the diaphragm lifts, causing a decrease in chest volume. Many common factors lead to decreased lung compliance, decreased functional residual capacity, increased breathing work, and increased airway resistance in obese patients. In other words, when this part of patients receives anesthesia, supine ventilation, and sedation, the incidence of atelectasis is higher, and obesity-related complications and upper airway obstruction are more likely to occur. For such patients, the difficulty of tracheal intubation will increase, their Malaparte score will increase, their mouth opening will be limited, their neck movement will be limited, they will have apnea, and they will have severe hypoxemia, which are all components of difficult intubation.
[0003] Medical staff engaged in tracheal intubation treatment have found that using an appropriate sloped lying position for obese patients is conducive to ventilation and glottis exposure, and uses gravity to move the neck and chest fat downward, making it easier to insert a laryngoscope and operate, thereby increasing the success rate of intubation. In the past, sheets were stacked to assist in positioning, which was time-consuming and laborious. Although the multifunctional beds in most emergency rooms can also lift the patient's upper body to a sloped lying position, they cannot fit obese people of different lengths and shapes, which makes it more difficult for operators to perform tracheal intubation. In addition, it is very inconvenient to quickly implement a sloped lying position at the pre-hospital site or in an ambulance. In addition, obese patients also need to use sheets to assist in placing them in an appropriate position when they are successfully intubated for prone ventilation treatment. To this end, we propose an airbag-assisted device for tracheal intubation treatment. Utility Model Content
