Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical equipment, and more particularly to a gastric tube with an exhaust function. Background Art
[0002] A nasogastric tube is a medical device used to deliver essential fluids and food to patients who are unable to swallow on their own. These tubes are typically made of polyurethane or silicone and are recommended to be replaced monthly, depending on the material. They come in various sizes, including thickness and length, and are primarily categorized as orogastric and nasogastric.
[0003] An orogastric tube is approximately 45 cm long and needs to be inserted approximately 35 to 40 cm from the mouth. A nasogastric tube, on the other hand, is approximately 105 cm long and needs to be inserted approximately 55 cm through the nostrils, passing through the pharynx and esophagus, and ultimately into the stomach. Because nasogastric tubes can be easily dislodged, they must be securely fastened to prevent repeated intubation and aspiration. A nasogastric tube consists of the tube, a feeding port connector, a tube clamp, and a cross-knot cap.
[0004] When a nasogastric tube is left in the esophagus, the patient's digestive tract physiological environment changes, potentially causing the esophageal sphincter to not close properly. Furthermore, pressure from airway obstruction or severe coughing can lead to complications such as esophageal reflux. The tube also allows for the extraction of gastric fluid for analysis.
[0005] Chinese patent announcement number (CN214762286U) discloses a double-lumen gastric tube with exhaust function, including a first lumen, a second lumen inserted into the outer surface of the first lumen, an air bag sleeved at the lower end of the outer surface of the first lumen, and a circular hole opened at the lower end of the outer surface of the first lumen. The utility model adds an exhaust device, which pumps air into the interior of the air bag through the second lumen, and then due to the buoyancy of the air bag, the air bag will float on the gastric fluid. Before or after the infusion of nutrient solution, the excess air in the stomach can be extracted through the circular hole opened at the end of the first lumen, thereby extracting the air in the patient's stomach, preventing the patient from vomiting due to hiccups, and reducing the probability of aspiration. Since the air bag floats in the stomach, the gastric tube can be fixed in the stomach, thereby preventing the patient from falling off the gastric tube due to turning over and coughing.
[0006] However, the above patent still has the problem of low exhaust efficiency for gastric gas. For example, in the above patent, a branch tube is connected to the main gastric tube and suspended on the gastric fluid through an air bag. The gastric tube is punched to allow gas to enter the gastric tube and be discharged through the branch tube. However, in this method, the branch tube and the gastric tube are used in the same pipe. When the gastric tube is in operation, the gas cannot flow. Secondly, this method is passive exhaust, which requires the gas to actively enter the pipe and float up to be discharged. It is easy to cause excessive accumulation of gas in the patient's stomach, and it is impossible to quickly and effectively eliminate the gas in the stomach. Utility Model Content

[0026] The structure provided by the utility model is explained and illustrated in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment specifically discloses a gastric tube with exhaust function, including a gastric tube main pipe 1, an exhaust assembly 2 for guiding exhaust is provided on the outside of the gastric tube main pipe 1, and an extrusion mechanism 3 for squeezing the exhaust assembly 2 is provided on the outside of the exhaust assembly 2;
[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, in order to facilitate gastric exhaust, the exhaust assembly 2 includes an exhaust pipe 21, a suspension airbag 22 and a one-way valve 23. The exhaust pipe 21 is fixed to the outside of the gastric tube main pipe 1 and extends along the length direction of the gastric tube main pipe 1. The lower end of the exhaust pipe 21 is provided with an air inlet 24, and the upper end is provided with an exhaust port 25. The suspension airbag 22 is provided on the outside of the lower end of the exhaust pipe 21, and the one-way valve 23 is installed at the upper end of the exhaust pipe 21 for controlling the conduction of the exhaust pipe 21 from the air inlet 24 to the exhaust port 25; the squeezing mechanism 3 is installed at the upper end of the exhaust pipe 21, and the squeezing mechanism 3 can squeeze the exhaust pipe 21 to generate a pressure difference in the exhaust pipe 21.
[0029] In this embodiment, when the gastric tube main pipe 1 is inserted, the exhaust pipe 21 can be driven into the stomach together, and there is a dual channel between the exhaust pipe 21 and the gastric tube main pipe 1, so that they do not affect each other. The one-way valve 23 is fixed to the top of the exhaust pipe 21. The provision of the one-way valve 23 can prevent external air from flowing back into the patient's stomach to achieve the purpose of automatic exhaust, that is, the one-way valve 23 can only allow the gas entering from the air inlet 24 to be discharged from the exhaust port 25, while external air cannot enter from the exhaust port 25.
[0030] In some embodiments, the air inlet 24 is provided on the outer peripheral side wall of the exhaust tube 21 and is located above the suspended air bag 22; this can effectively prevent the inhalation of gastric fluid into the exhaust tube 21, and 2-4 air inlet holes 24 are provided in a circular array, and the number can be adjusted according to specific needs; the exhaust tube 21 is mainly used to discharge gas, so its diameter is smaller than the diameter of the main tube 1 of the gastric tube, and the overall size of the gastric tube can be appropriately reduced.
[0031] Continue to refer Figure 4As shown, the squeezing mechanism 3 includes a control box 31 and a negative pressure balloon 32, a support pad 33 and a toggle member 34 arranged inside the control box 31. The control box 31 is mounted on the outside of the exhaust pipe 21. The negative pressure balloon 32 is also arranged on the exhaust pipe 21 and is connected to the exhaust pipe 21. The support pad 33 and the toggle member 34 are respectively arranged on both sides of the negative pressure balloon 32. Driving the toggle member 34 can squeeze the negative pressure balloon 32 to generate a pressure difference in the exhaust pipe 21, thereby enabling the stomach gas to be discharged through the exhaust pipe 21.
[0032] Specifically, when the toggle member 34 squeezes the negative pressure balloon 32 , a pressure difference is generated in the exhaust tube 21 , and the stomach gas enters the exhaust tube 21 from the air inlet 24 and is then discharged upward from the exhaust port 25 .
[0033] In the illustrated embodiment, the toggle member 34 includes a servo motor 341, a connecting shaft 342 and a cam 343. The servo motor 341 is fixed to the back wall of the inner cavity of the control box 31. The output end of the servo motor 341 is connected to the connecting shaft 342, and the connecting shaft 342 is connected to the cam 343. The cam 343 can squeeze the negative pressure balloon 32 during rotation.
[0034] Specifically, the servo motor 341 is driven to rotate the connecting shaft 342 and the cam 343 in turn. During the rotation of the cam 343, its protruding portion can squeeze the negative pressure balloon 32, causing the negative pressure balloon 32 to deform, thereby creating a pressure differential within the exhaust tube 21, allowing stomach gas to automatically enter the exhaust tube 21 and be discharged outward. In some embodiments, a controller can be installed outside the control box 31 and connected to the servo motor 341. During exhaust, the controller can be used to control the timing of the servo motor 341, that is, to control the timing of the start of the servo motor 341 to achieve the automatic exhaust function.
[0035] In some preferred embodiments, the width of the support pad 33 is greater than the diameter of the negative pressure balloon 32, and the side of the support pad 33 close to the negative pressure balloon 32 is provided with an arc surface that is adapted to the negative pressure balloon 32. The negative pressure balloon 32 can be fully deformed by reducing the space through the support pad 33, and the setting of the arc surface can make the negative pressure balloon 32 and the support pad 33 fit more closely.
[0036] The gastric tube provided by the present invention is used for automatic deflation of the gastric tube. When the gastric tube main body 1 is inserted, the exhaust tube 21 is driven to enter the stomach together with the gastric tube main body 1. There is a double channel between the exhaust tube 21 and the gastric tube main body 1, which can avoid affecting each other. The suspended air bag 22 can drive the exhaust tube 21 to be placed above the gastric fluid, and the air inlet 24 is above the suspended air bag 22, which can effectively prevent the inhalation of gastric fluid. At the same time, when deflation occurs, timing control can be performed by the controller to start the servo motor 341, and the output shaft drives the connecting shaft 342 to drive the cam 343 to rotate. During the rotation of the cam 343, its protruding part can squeeze the negative pressure balloon 32, and the space is reduced by the support pad 33 to fully deform the negative pressure balloon 32. During the back and forth squeezing of the negative pressure balloon 32, a pressure difference is generated in the exhaust tube 21, so that the stomach gas is drawn into the exhaust tube 21 through the air inlet 24 and then discharged upward. The one-way valve 23 is provided to prevent external air from flowing back into the patient's stomach to achieve the purpose of automatic deflation.
