Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oral cleaning equipment technology, and in particular to an operating device and cleaning system for oral cleaning. Background Technology
[0002] The basic procedure for oral cleaning of ICU patients in China is as follows: Special oral care methods within basic nursing. Oral care for patients with endotracheal intubation is a challenging and potentially dangerous procedure requiring the cooperation of two nurses. First, suction sputum and oral secretions from the trachea, remove the pads and adhesive tape, and measure the intubation depth. One nurse stabilizes the patient's head and endotracheal tube, while the other nurse holds a tongue depressor in one hand and a hemostat in the other, clamping a cotton ball to clean the mouth, tongue, teeth, cheeks, tongue coating, palate, and other areas. Residual fluids in the mouth are suctioned out, the bite pad is replaced, and the adhesive tape and pads are reapplied. Finally, paraffin oil is applied to the lips.
[0003] Current oral cleaning methods often require multiple people to perform, involving cumbersome procedures, long processing times, and significant investment of nursing resources. Due to the lack of effective visualization tools, healthcare workers cannot fully understand the internal condition of the oral cavity during cleaning, potentially missing hard-to-observe areas and resulting in incomplete cleaning. Traditional oral cleaning methods struggle to achieve both thorough cleaning and prevent fluid buildup, sometimes even causing discomfort to patients, affecting both cleaning effectiveness and patient comfort. Oral care is a highly specialized procedure, and current training for nursing staff may be insufficient, impacting the quality and efficiency of oral care. Furthermore, existing oral cleaning technologies and equipment may not meet the specific needs of ICU patients, particularly in terms of visualization and automation. Utility Model Content
