Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary equipment technology, and in particular to a nasogastric tube fixation device. Background Technology
[0002] Nasogastric tubes are widely used in various clinical departments, especially in gastroenterology, neurology, and surgery. For patients requiring long-term nutritional support, suffering from swallowing difficulties, gastrointestinal obstruction, or acute peritonitis, nasogastric tubes provide an effective treatment option. After insertion, the tube needs to be secured to prevent dislodgement; therefore, a nasogastric tube fixation device is required.
[0003] The prior art, with publication number CN221556837U, discloses a fixation device for a nasogastric tube, which "includes a fixation clip, a fixation strap, and an anti-slip device. The fixation clip includes a handle and two hinged clamps. The anti-slip device includes an anti-slip protrusion on the clamp and near the hinge of the clamp, and an anti-slip material layer on the anti-slip protrusion. The outer side of the clamp corresponding to the patient's face is designed with an arc-shaped structure to avoid pressure injury to the local skin during the use of the fixation clip."
[0004] When using the aforementioned nasogastric tube fixation device, a fixation frame is used to clamp and fix the nasogastric tube. However, the overall size of the fixation clip is relatively large, and the fixation clip can easily cause injury to the patient's nose. Moreover, the fixation clip only clamps and fixes the nasogastric tube, and the fixation effect of the clip itself is poor. The nasogastric tube can easily slip and move along with the fixation clip. In addition, existing nasogastric tubes are generally fixed with 3M tape, and prolonged application of 3M tape can easily cause lacerations to the tip of the nose. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention proposes a nasogastric tube fixation device to more accurately resolve the issues of long-term indwelling nasogastric tube slippage and nasal tip tape tearing caused by long-term use of 3M tape.

[0007] This utility model proposes a nasogastric tube fixing device, including an inner ring band, which is a soft, long strip of cotton. A fixing component is sleeved on the outside of the inner ring band, which can assist in fixing and stabilizing the nasogastric tube.
[0008] Furthermore, two sets of outer rings are fitted around the inner ring, and both sets of outer rings are silicone round tubes.
[0009] Furthermore, the fixing assembly includes a first limiting cylinder, a limiting ring, a second limiting cylinder, two sets of straps, multiple sets of first-type Velcro straps, two sets of fasteners, and two sets of second-type Velcro straps. The first limiting cylinder is sleeved and installed outside the inner ring belt. The limiting ring is disposed on the side wall of the first limiting cylinder. The second limiting cylinder is sleeved and installed outside the inner ring belt. The two sets of straps are respectively installed on the side walls of the first and second limiting cylinders. The multiple sets of first-type Velcro straps are respectively disposed on the surfaces of the first and second limiting cylinders and the straps. The two sets of fasteners are respectively installed on the side walls of the first and second limiting cylinders. The two sets of second-type Velcro straps are respectively disposed at the bottom of the first limiting cylinder and the top of the second limiting cylinder.
[0010] Furthermore, the fixing assembly also includes a connecting seat, two sets of vertical grooves, an annular groove, a headband, a connecting rod, a fixing seat, and a retaining strip. The connecting seat is installed on the side wall of the second limiting cylinder. The two sets of vertical grooves are symmetrically opened on the inner wall of the connecting seat. The annular groove is opened on the inner wall of the connecting seat and located below the vertical grooves. The headband is set above the inner annular band. The connecting rod is installed on the side wall of the headband. The fixing seat is sleeved and installed at the bottom of the connecting rod. The retaining strip is set at the bottom of the fixing seat.
[0011] Furthermore, both the first and second limiting cylinders have silicone layers on their side walls, and the limiting rings and connecting rods are symmetrically arranged.
[0012] Furthermore, both sets of the fasteners are elastic snap-fit devices, and the fasteners have a U-shaped structure.
[0013] Furthermore, the vertical groove and the annular groove are connected together, and the vertical groove, the annular groove and the locking strip are correspondingly arranged, and the connecting seat and the fixing seat are correspondingly arranged.
[0014] Furthermore, the headband is an elastic band, and the fixing seat and the connecting rod are screwed together.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0016] This utility model proposes a nasogastric tube fixation device. Through the inclusion of a first limiting cylinder, a second limiting cylinder, a second Velcro strap, a fastener, a strap, and a first Velcro strap, the device secures the nasogastric tube to the first and second limiting cylinders. Furthermore, the device's inner ring strap provides a limiting position at the patient's ear, and the first and second limiting cylinders provide a limiting position at the patient's nose. Finally, the connecting rod, limiting ring, locking strip, vertical groove, fixing seat, and annular groove further secure the fixing seat to the connecting seat. The headband is then placed over the patient's head to secure the nasogastric tube, achieving a good fixation effect, reducing the risk of the nasogastric tube slipping, and solving the problem of nasal lacerations caused by prolonged application of 3M tape.
