Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary device technology, specifically an adjustable airway support and fixation pad for neonatal ventilators. Background Technology

[0002] Neonatal ventilators are essential medical devices primarily used to support or replace spontaneous breathing in newborns, especially premature infants or those with respiratory illnesses. They improve ventilation, correct hypoxia, support lung function, and prevent complications. When using a ventilator, an airway cushion is needed to ensure the safety and stability of the ventilator tubing and to protect the newborn's skin and airway. However, these airway cushions are typically just temporary folded towel bags, which are inconvenient to use. Currently, to ensure greater stability and safety during ventilator use, neonatal ventilator airway cushions are commonly used to support the newborn's airway.

[0003] The airway cushions for neonatal ventilators on the market usually use ordinary cotton pads, which are easily deformed by pressure, are not easy to adjust according to actual needs, cannot maintain a neutral neck position, and are prone to airway deviation. Traditional rigid plastic supports may compress the occipital bone and increase the risk of skull deformation. Therefore, we propose an adjustable airway support and fixation pad for neonatal ventilators. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an adjustable airway support and fixation pad for neonatal ventilators, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an adjustable airway support and fixation pad for a neonatal ventilator, comprising a main silicone pad and an adjustment component. The main silicone pad is an integrated structure. The adjustment component is disposed on the surface of the main silicone pad and includes a first snap-fit ​​groove, a snap-fit ​​strip, a first silicone pad, a second snap-fit ​​groove, a snap-fit ​​block, a second silicone pad, and an arc-shaped groove. The first snap-fit ​​groove is disposed on the rear side of the main silicone pad, and a snap-fit ​​strip is engaged with the inner side of the first snap-fit ​​groove. The first silicone pad is installed on the front side of the snap-fit ​​strip, and a second snap-fit ​​groove is disposed on the upper end of the rear surface of the first silicone pad. The first silicone pad, the snap-fit ​​strip, and the second snap-fit ​​groove are all integral structures tightly connected.
