Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical pipeline fixation, in particular to an adjustable ECMO cannula fixer. Background Art

[0002] ECMO (Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation), commonly known as an artificial lung, is a medical emergency technology device used to treat critical illnesses. It is mainly used to treat critically ill patients with cardiopulmonary failure, providing patients with continuous extracorporeal respiration and circulation functions to maintain their lives and buy precious time for rescue. In clinical nursing work, most patients treated with ECMO are critically ill patients. Most patients have many drainage tubes inserted into their bodies, and most patients are in a forced position and are prone to restlessness. Moreover, during the treatment process, unplanned extubation is very likely to occur due to operations such as turning over. ECMO treatment is extremely critical. If the tube is dislodged or shifted, it is easy to cause massive bleeding in the patient, reducing the treatment effect and even the patient's survival rate.

[0003] Currently, patent document CN219579682U discloses an adjustable ECMO cannula holder. The holder comprises a base with an adhesive layer at the bottom and an adjustable buckle structure mounted above the base for securing the cannula. Large openings are provided on either side of the base, each for inserting a flat headband that wraps around the patient's body for securement during use. This utility model is easy to use, and the adjustable buckle structure can be adjusted to the desired tightness based on the catheter model, enhancing the securement of the ECMO line.

[0004] However, the above-mentioned existing adjustable ECMO cannula holder can fix the ECMO tube with the cooperation of the first clamping arm, the second clamping arm and the fixing arm, but it is unable to adjust the position angle of the holder according to the patient's condition or the direction of the ECMO tube after the holder is pasted on the patient's skin. Removing the holder from the patient's skin and pasting it again will easily irritate the patient, and the adhesive strength of the adhesive layer used for bonding will be greatly reduced, thereby affecting the normal use of the holder. For this reason, we propose an adjustable ECMO cannula holder. Utility Model Content

The bottom of the adjusting disk 14 is provided with a plurality of positioning slots 20 distributed at equal angles. The longitudinal section of the positioning slot 20 is a right triangle, and the positioning slot 20 corresponds to the right-angled trapezoidal slot 15 up and down. The top of the movable block 17 away from the push block 16 is fixedly connected with an elastic card plate 13 which is tilted. The elastic card plate 13 fits the inclined surface of the right-angled trapezoidal slot 15, and the upper end of the elastic card plate 13 is clamped to the inner side of the positioning slot 20. The top of the adjusting disk 14 is fixedly connected with a positioning frame 6. The positioning frame 6 is a frame-shaped structure with an opening at the top left end and two arc-shaped corners at the lower end, and the material of the positioning frame 6 is polyethylene.

[0027] This technical solution: After removing the release paper layer 3 at the bottom of the adhesive layer 2, with the help of the base 1, the fixator can be attached to the patient's skin surface through the adhesive layer 2. If the position angle of the fixator needs to be adjusted during use after attachment, the push block 16 drives the movable block 17 to slide on the inner side of the movable groove 19 and move toward the limit pin 11. Then, with the help of the inclined surface of the right-angled trapezoidal groove 15, the moving movable block 17 can squeeze the elastic card plate 13. At the same time, the upper end of the elastic card plate 13 will withdraw from the corresponding positioning card groove 20 and retract into the right-angled trapezoidal groove 15.

The ability to limit, then, the medical staff can, with the cooperation of the through hole 18 and the limiting pin 11, drive the adjusting disk 14 to rotate through the positioning frame 6. After the position angle adjustment of the positioning frame 6 is completed, the push block 16 is relaxed, and the squeezed elastic card plate 13 can restore the tension and drive the movable block 17 and the push block 16 to reset. At the same time, the upper end of the elastic card plate 13 will enter the corresponding upper and lower positioning slots 20, so that the position of the positioning frame 6 can be fixed through the adjusting disk 14. It is simple to operate, easy to use, and has low manufacturing cost. Then, with the assistance of the connecting through slot 5, the connecting belt 4 is fixed around the patient's body to ensure the firmness of the fixator when in use.
