Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary device technology, specifically to a tracheotomy humidification fixation device. Background Technology

[0002] A common method of artificial airway humidification is continuous airway humidification using a microinfusion pump. Humidifying fluid is drawn from a syringe, and an extension tube is connected. After expelling the air, the end of the extension tube is cut off, and the remaining end is inserted into the tracheostomy tube. The microinfusion pump continuously and evenly infuses humidifying fluid into the airway for 24 hours. The injection rate can be adjusted according to the viscosity of the sputum. This method is often used before suctioning to dilute the sputum, making it easier to suction and thus maintaining airway patency. This method is simple to operate, provides slow and even humidification, minimizes airway irritation, reduces the occurrence of airway bleeding, and has relatively little impact on oxygen saturation, achieving effective humidification while improving the safety of airway humidification. However, it has the following technical drawbacks: when the patient turns over or moves significantly, the remaining end of the extension tube may dislodge, making fixation difficult and increasing the possibility of contamination; once dislodged, the extension tube does not provide humidification, posing a risk of infection.

[0003] Therefore, designing a tracheostomy humidification fixation device has become an urgent problem to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a tracheotomy humidification fixation device to solve at least one of the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is: a tracheostomy humidification fixation device, including a tube body, one end of which is an open end, and a pagoda head is provided on the outer ring of the open end, which can be fixed on the tracheostomy tube; the other end of the tube body is a closed end, which is a hemispherical arc surface, and a second connecting tube and a third connecting tube are respectively provided on the hemispherical arc surface. The second connecting tube can be connected to a suction tube, and the third connecting tube is connected to a sealed container containing humidification fluid through a micro-infusion pump.

[0006] This invention employs a tube body with one open end and one closed end. The closed end is equipped with a second connecting tube and a third connecting tube. The second connecting tube connects to a suction catheter for use during suctioning. The third connecting tube connects to a sealed container containing humidifying fluid via a micro-infusion pump, which slowly pumps the humidifying fluid into the airway. A pagoda-shaped head is positioned on the outer ring of the open end, securing it to the tracheostomy tube and preventing slippage, thus reducing the risk of dislodgement and contamination. The third connecting tube does not need to be removed during suctioning, significantly reducing the risk of infection. This invention addresses the technical shortcomings of existing technologies where the extension tube stump dislodges when the patient turns over or makes large movements, making fixation difficult and increasing the possibility of contamination; and the extension tube stump, once dislodged, fails to provide humidification, posing a risk of infection.
