Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical equipment, and in particular relates to a gastrojejunostomy nutrition tube. Background Art

[0002] For patients with head and neck and esophageal malignant tumors who have eating disorders and normal gastrointestinal function and require long-term tube feeding; patients with neurological diseases such as stroke, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and brain trauma; patients with cancerous gastrointestinal obstruction; patients with pancreatitis or Crohn's disease who are intolerant to oral administration and require long-term tube feeding; patients with other diseases such as benign esophageal stenosis, tracheoesophageal fistula, gastric emptying disorder, short bowel syndrome and severe malnutrition, gastric and jejunal nutrition tubes need to be implanted to establish a long-term enteral nutrition support (EN) channel for nutritional support or drug treatment.

[0003] Gastrojejunostomy offers a relatively safe and effective minimally invasive surgical approach. It has good compliance and can reduce the incidence of reflux and aspiration pneumonia. Surgical jejunostomy can be achieved through open surgery, including tunnel jejunostomy (Witzel jejunostomy), Roux-en-Y jejunostomy, and needle-catheter jejunostomy (NCJ), as well as through open gastric jejunostomy and laparoscopic surgical jejunostomy. However, standardized technical guidelines and uniform, standard feeding tube materials are still lacking.

[0004] A gastrojejunostomy feeding tube is a medical device used for feeding and nutritional support, or to help patients eliminate gas and fluids from their stomach and intestines. This device is typically made of flexible, corrosion-resistant materials for safe use within the patient's body. One end of the feeding tube is inserted into the stomach or intestine, while the other end is connected to an external container for the injection of chyme or medication.

[0005] When in use, the base design of existing nutrition tubes often uses glue to fix to the patient's skin. This method is easily affected by factors such as skin type, humidity, and temperature, resulting in unstable bonding effects and even displacement or falling off. In addition, the existing glue-attachment method may cause inconvenience to patients when wearing protective equipment or performing daily activities. At the same time, the adhesive may cause irritation or allergic reactions to the skin.

[0006] Existing feeding tubes often have complex shapes and structures, with numerous redundant tubes outside the peritoneal cavity, making them difficult to use and maintain. The use of urinary catheters, fungiform tubes, and other alternatives to feeding tubes during fistula ostomy procedures is common. Therefore, a new type of feeding tube with reliable fixation, simple structure, and practicality is urgently needed. Utility Model Content

The graduated lines 7 can be marked at specific locations on the feeding tube, for example, corresponding to specific gastrointestinal locations such as the fundus, the beginning of the small intestine, or the end of the large intestine. This allows medical staff to accurately determine the position of the feeding tube within the stomach, allowing for better nutritional control.

[0044] For details, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 An arc-shaped opening 3 is provided at the upper end of the base 1 and arranged in an array along the circumference of the base 1. The arc-shaped opening 3 enables the base 1 to adhere flexibly to the skin.

[0045] In this embodiment: an arc-shaped opening 3 is provided at the upper end of the base 1. The design of this arc-shaped opening 3 can provide multiple advantages to improve the functionality of the nutrition tube and the comfort of the patient. The shape and size of the arc-shaped opening 3 can be carefully designed to make it easier for medical staff to operate when inserting or removing the nutrition tube. For example, the arc-shaped opening 3 can be designed into an ergonomic curve so that the medical staff's fingers can be placed and operated more naturally. The arc-shaped opening 3 can also reduce the inconvenience of patients when wearing protective equipment. Due to the presence of the arc-shaped opening 3, medical staff can access the nutrition tube without completely removing the protective equipment, thereby improving the convenience and safety of operation.

[0046] For details, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The upper end of the rotating cover 8 is fixedly connected with an anti-slip sleeve 12, and the anti-slip sleeve 12 is sleeved on the upper tube 2.

[0047] In this embodiment, a non-slip sleeve 12 is fixedly attached to the upper end of the rotating cover 8. This design offers multiple advantages, enhancing the functionality of the feeding tube and patient comfort. The non-slip sleeve 12 can be made of a material with good friction, such as silicone or rubber, providing sufficient grip and ensuring greater stability and reliability for medical personnel when operating the rotating cover 8.

[0048] The working principle and usage process of the present invention are as follows: First, during the operation, the doctor will implant the nutrition tube into the patient's body according to the patient's specific situation, so that the base 1 is in close contact with the skin. The arc-shaped opening 3 on the base 1 is designed so that the base 1 can better fit the skin and improve the patient's comfort. The doctor will operate the rotating cover 8 through the anti-slip sleeve 12 on the rotating cover 8 to facilitate the management or adjustment of the nutrition tube. If it is necessary to suture the base 1 and the skin, the doctor will use sutures to suture through the suture hole 4 opened on the base 1. The design of the suture hole 4 makes the suturing process more convenient and also ensures the stability of the suture. After the operation is completed, the patient can live and move normally, and the nutrition tube will continue to work to monitor and nourish the substances in the gastrointestinal tract.
