Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a silicone dental pad for Bluetooth body temperature monitoring. Background Technology
[0002] General anesthesia with endotracheal intubation is one of the most commonly used anesthesia methods in clinical practice. Currently, in prone surgery, dental splints and adhesive tape are commonly used to fix the endotracheal tube. However, with the increasing aging population, elderly patients often experience tooth movement and find it difficult to tolerate hard dental splints, increasing the risk of tooth loss and loosening. Elderly patients have poor tolerance to low temperatures, and perioperative temperature monitoring is an important means of preventing perioperative hypothermia in the elderly. Most current temperature probes need to be placed separately in the nasopharynx, rectum, and esophagus for temperature measurement. Nasal placement of probes carries the risk of nasal bleeding and cross-infection. Furthermore, after the endotracheal tube is fixed, it may be missed. In special surgical positions such as prone and lateral decubitus surgery, the lead fixation carries the risk of dislodgement and injury. Among the published technologies, some attach temperature probes to airway management devices, but the limitation on the placement of the temperature probe lead is difficult to avoid. Utility Model Content
[0003] Based on the above analysis, this utility model aims to provide a silicone mouthguard for Bluetooth body temperature monitoring, in order to solve the problems of difficulty in continuously monitoring patient body temperature during existing surgical anesthesia and difficulty in fixing the temperature measurement wires during prone and lateral surgical positions.
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is mainly achieved through the following technical solution: a silicone mouthguard with Bluetooth body temperature monitoring, including a suction channel, a fixing base and a temperature monitoring channel. The fixing base is a fixing plate sleeved on the outer wall of the suction channel, and the suction channel is divided into an intraoral part and an extraoral part. The temperature monitoring channel is arranged parallel to the inner part of the suction channel directly below it, and the upper inner wall of the temperature monitoring channel is the lower outer wall of the suction channel.
[0005] The suction channel has a hollow circular ring structure in cross-section, and the temperature monitoring channel has a hollow fan-shaped ring structure in cross-section, with their centers coinciding.
[0006] Preferably, the arc length of the inner wall of the temperature monitoring channel is 1 / 15 to 1 / 12 of the circumference of the outer wall of the suction channel.
[0007] Furthermore, the inner part of the suction channel and the outer part of the temperature monitoring channel are wrapped with a silicone layer.
[0008] Preferably, the silicone layer has threads on its exterior.
[0009] Furthermore, the dental pad also includes a temperature monitoring component, which includes a guide wire, a silicone end cap, and a temperature monitoring probe, with the silicone end cap and the temperature monitoring probe respectively connected to both ends of the guide wire.
[0010] Specifically, the guide wire portion consists of a heat-conducting wire and a shaping guide wire wrapped in a silicone outer sheath.
[0011] It should be noted that the external dimensions of the silicone end cap match the cross-section of the temperature monitoring channel.
[0012] Specifically, the temperature monitoring probe includes a heat-conducting wire and a wireless transmitter.
[0013] Furthermore, the dental pad also includes a wireless receiver fixed to an external monitor screen.
[0014] For example, the temperature monitoring probe uploads body temperature data to a wireless receiver via a wireless transmitter.

[0017] 2. This utility model reduces the limitation of the external part of the body temperature wire being received by the wireless transmitter of the temperature monitoring probe and the external wireless receiver by setting up the wireless transmitter of the temperature monitoring probe, and is suitable for surgery in special positions such as prone position, beach chair position, and lateral position.
[0018] 3. The dental pad of this utility model is equipped with a suction channel, which can attract secretions during the operation and prevent problems such as inaccurate body temperature monitoring and dental pad displacement caused by excessive secretions.
[0019] 4. The dental pad fixing base of this utility model has grooves at both ends, and silicone anti-slip contacts are set on the inner wall of the grooves to fix the endotracheal tube. Grooves are provided on both sides, and the position of the endotracheal tube can be adjusted according to the patient's position during the operation.
[0020] 5. The inner part of the dental pad of this utility model is surrounded by silicone material to avoid damaging the teeth. The outer part of the silicone layer has spiral stripes to increase friction and prevent it from shifting and slipping off due to excessive oral secretions.

[0028] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which constitute a part of this application and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0029] A specific embodiment of this utility model discloses a silicone teething pad with Bluetooth body temperature monitoring, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, it includes a suction channel 2, a fixed base 1, and a temperature monitoring channel 3. The fixed base 1 is a fixed plate sleeved on the outer wall of the suction channel 2, dividing the suction channel 2 into an inner part and an outer part. The temperature monitoring channel 3 is arranged parallel to the inner part of the suction channel 2 directly below it, and the upper inner wall 301 of the temperature monitoring channel is the lower outer wall of the suction channel.
[0030] The suction channel 2 has a hollow ring structure in cross-section, and the temperature monitoring channel 3 has a hollow fan-shaped ring structure in cross-section, with their centers coinciding.
[0031] Preferably, such as Figure 2 As shown, the inner end of the suction channel 2 is a bevel, and the long side of the bevel is close to the tongue. The length L1 of the long side of the inner part of the suction channel 2 is 4-5cm, and the length of the outer part of the suction channel 2 is 2cm.
[0032] It should be noted that the suction channel 2 is used to suction oral secretions generated during the procedure to prevent excessive secretions from causing inaccurate temperature monitoring, displacement of the dental pad, and other problems.
[0033] Preferably, the arc length of the inner wall 301 of the temperature monitoring channel is 1 / 15 to 1 / 12 of the circumference of the outer wall of the suction channel.
[0034] The inner wall arc length of the temperature monitoring channel is designed to be small, reducing the space occupied in the oral cavity and reducing patient discomfort. At the same time, its positional relationship with the suction channel makes it easier for the temperature monitoring channel to be close to the tongue side, allowing for more accurate measurement of the actual temperature inside the oral cavity.
[0035] Furthermore, the inner part of the suction channel 2 and the outer side of the temperature monitoring channel 3 are wrapped with a silicone layer 9 to avoid damaging the teeth.
[0036] Preferably, the silicone layer 9 has rounded corners at the acute angles of the fan-ring structure of the temperature monitoring channel 3 to increase comfort and prevent the accumulation of secretions.
[0037] For example, the silicone layer 9 has threads on the outside to increase friction and prevent it from shifting or slipping due to excessive oral secretions.
[0038] Furthermore, the silicone dental pad also includes a temperature monitoring component, which includes a guide wire portion 4, a silicone end cap 5, and a temperature monitoring probe 6, with the silicone end cap and temperature monitoring probe respectively connected to both ends of the guide wire portion.
[0039] Preferably, such as Figure 2 As shown, the distance L2 between the silicone fixing head 5 and the temperature monitoring probe 6 is 10-12cm.
[0040] Specifically, the temperature monitoring probe 6 includes a heat-conducting wire and a wireless transmitter; the guide wire consists of a heat-conducting wire wrapped in a silicone outer sheath and a molded guide wire. The heat-conducting wire transmits the temperature monitored by the temperature monitoring probe to the wireless transmitter, and the molded guide wire facilitates the insertion of the temperature monitoring component through the temperature monitoring channel into the mouth. After being placed in the mouth, it can better conform to the glossopharynx according to the patient's specific plastic curvature, increasing the accuracy of temperature measurement.
[0041] Preferably, the outer dimensions of the silicone end cap 5 match the cross-section of the temperature monitoring channel, requiring no additional adjustment or adaptation, and the temperature monitoring component can be directly and fixedly connected to the temperature monitoring channel.
[0042] Furthermore, the fixing base 1 is provided with fixing holes 101 at diagonal positions for fixing with external adhesive tape or thin rope.
[0043] Preferably, the fixing base has grooves 7 on both sides for a stable and circular fit with the tracheal tube.
[0044] The inner wall of the groove 7 is provided with silicone anti-slip contacts 8 to prevent the inner wall of the groove from sliding against the tracheal tube, so that the mouthguard is fixed to the tracheal tube.
[0045] Furthermore, the silicone dental pad also includes a wireless receiver. The body temperature probe transmits data to the wireless receiver via a wireless transmitter. The receiver module is fixed to an external monitor screen, allowing direct observation of real-time changes in body temperature, setting of appropriate temperature ranges, and timely warnings when the temperature exceeds the range.
[0046] When using the silicone mouthguard for Bluetooth body temperature monitoring: After endotracheal intubation, insert the mouthguard, aligning the groove 7 with the endotracheal tube, and position the fixing base 1 outside the lips; then, insert the temperature monitoring component into the mouth through the temperature monitoring channel 3, aligning the temperature monitoring probe 6 with the tongue side inside the patient's mouth, and appropriately bending the guide wire 4 during insertion to ensure good contact between the temperature monitoring probe 6 and the glossopharynx; fix the mouthguard by passing external fixing tape or thin rope through the fixing hole 101, transmit body temperature through the wireless transmitter, and receive data from the external wireless receiver for real-time temperature monitoring; after intubation or during extubation in the anesthesia recovery period, oral secretions can be aspirated through the suction channel 2.
[0047] In summary, this utility model enables effective and continuous monitoring of the patient's body temperature during surgery by embedding a body temperature monitoring channel and device in the endotracheal intubation dental pad. It also avoids damage to the incisors caused by inserting a body temperature probe into the mouth and cross-infection caused by the body temperature probe. Furthermore, it reduces the limitation of the external part of the body temperature lead on the patient's position and is suitable for surgeries in special positions such as prone, beach chair, and lateral decubitus positions.
[0048] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
