Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of nasal jejunal tube fixation patches, and particularly relates to a nasal jejunal tube fixation patch. Background Technique

[0002] Naso-gastrointestinal nutrition tubes can be used for gastrointestinal decompression and also as a pathway for drug and nutrition input, which is beneficial to improving the patient's condition and promoting recovery. Due to the patient's condition, the naso-gastrointestinal nutrition tube needs to be indwelling for several days. Clinically, due to unreliable fixation, adverse events such as tube displacement and slippage often occur, increasing clinical risks and possibly leading to a series of complications, such as mucosal damage and aspiration pneumonia. Therefore, reliable fixation of the nasal jejunal tube is of great significance. In recent years, nursing staff have explored methods for fixing nasal tubes, but there are still problems such as unreliable tube fixation, redness and even inflammation and ulceration of the patient's nasal alae. Qili powder has the effects of promoting blood circulation to remove stasis, stopping pain and bleeding, and astringing sore muscles, and is commonly used for postoperative blood stasis, pressure ulcers, and bedsore in general surgery. Therefore, our team designed a "fixation patch with traditional Chinese medicine coating combined with decompression patch for preventing skin adverse reactions of nasal tubes" and applied it to the fixation of nasal tubes in general surgery patients, effectively improving the above problems.

[0003] Nasal tubes include gastric tubes, naso-jejunal nutrition tubes, nasobiliary tubes, small intestine decompression tubes, etc., with gastric tubes and naso-jejunal nutrition tubes being more common. Effective gastrointestinal decompression for patients after gastrointestinal surgery can not only reduce the pressure in the digestive tract but also detect changes in the patient's condition by observing the color, shape, and volume of the drainage fluid.

[0004] The development of the concept of fast-track surgery has significantly reduced the intubation rate in surgical operations, but the indwelling of nasogastric tubes still exists after complex surgeries such as gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, colorectal cancer, and pancreaticoduodenectomy. In recent years, studies have shown that early postoperative enteral nutrition can reduce the incidence of postoperative complications in patients and promote the recovery of patients. Therefore, there are more and more patients with indwelling nutrition tubes after surgery. Unplanned extubation affects the patient's recovery, increases the length of hospital stay, and re-intubation will increase the patient's pain. How to effectively fix the tube and reduce the occurrence of skin adverse reactions in the nose has always been a problem studied by nursing staff.

[0005] For the fixation of nasal catheters, traditional methods include the adhesive tape method and the bandage method. The bandage method is to tie a knot at the root of the gastric tube with a bandage, then pass one end of the bandage around the patient's auricle and then through the occipital region, and tie it with the other end of the bandage in front of the ear for fixation. This method can fix the gastric tube well and the gastric tube is not easy to fall off, but it is inconvenient to replace after the bandage is contaminated, and it is not aesthetically pleasing from the appearance, adding a burden to the patient's mind invisibly.

[0006] The adhesive tape method involves wrapping the nasogastric tube with adhesive tape to secure it to the nose and cheek. However, this method is not very secure, and the tube is prone to dislodgement or displacement, easily leading to medical device-related pressure ulcers (MDR Pus). In recent years, there has been increasing attention to MDR Pus both domestically and internationally. Pittman et al., through a review of multiple guidelines and organizational statements, defined MDR Pus as damage to the skin and / or subcutaneous tissue (including mucosa) caused by the use of external medical devices, pointing out that once mucosal pressure injury (MMPI) occurs, it forms an open ulcer. In clinical practice, it has been found that the entire weight of the exposed portion of the nasogastric tube is borne by the skin of the nose. Over time, the pressure site initially becomes red and later ulcers develop. Once a patient develops MDR Pus, it not only increases the reporting rate of pressure injuries and increases the patient's financial burden, but also increases the chance of infection due to skin damage, shortens the catheter indwelling time, and affects the patient's treatment. Some scholars have achieved certain results by using hydrocolloid dressings in conjunction with 3M adhesive tape to fix nasal passages. However, this method involves expensive materials, and nursing staff need to cut the dressings in advance, which greatly reduces the efficiency of nursing work.

[0007] At present, the leakage of the nasal tubes in patients causes varying degrees of pressure on the skin, which can easily lead to pressure injury. Patients need to change dressings frequently due to skin inflammation or damage, which increases the infection rate and the economic burden on patients. Utility Model Content

[0008] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is that the exposed parts of the pipes in existing equipment cause significant pressure on the skin under pressure.

[0009] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a nasojejunal tube fixation patch, comprising a fixation patch, wherein the fixation patch is composed of an adhesive layer, a traditional Chinese medicine coating layer and an isolation layer.

[0010] Furthermore, the adhesive layer is composed of spunlace nonwoven fabric coated with medical pressure-sensitive adhesive.

[0011] Furthermore, the herbal coating is adhered to one side of the adhesive layer, and the herbal coating is made of foam sheet and a drug layer disposed on the outside of the foam sheet.

[0012] Furthermore, the release layer is adhered to the other side of the adhesive layer, and the release layer is made of release paper.

[0013] Furthermore, the drug layer is composed of blood scorpion, fan incense, borneol, myrrh, safflower, cinnabar, and catechu.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model after adopting the above structure are as follows:

[0015] (1) To address the shortcomings of existing products, reduce the pressure on the skin of patients caused by the leakage of the nasal tube, reduce the reporting rate of pressure injuries, reduce the frequency of dressing changes due to skin inflammation or damage, reduce the infection rate, and reduce the economic burden on patients.

[0016] (2) The improved fixation patch is easy to operate and has good adhesion performance. It can greatly save operation time, improve nurses' work efficiency, and save more time to carry out other more important nursing work, such as fully communicating with patients, understanding and meeting patients' needs, thereby improving nurse-patient relationship and increasing patient satisfaction.
