Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and more specifically, to a splash protection device. Background Technology

[0002] Tracheotomy is a clinical emergency surgery that involves cutting open the trachea in the neck and inserting a specially designed cannula to relieve airway obstruction and ensure unobstructed breathing. It is commonly used for ICU patients with airway obstruction due to various causes such as coma and cerebral edema. After a tracheotomy, the artificial airway is directly connected to the outside environment, losing the filtering, warming, and humidifying functions of the normal upper respiratory tract. This can lead to thickened airway mucus, increasing the risk of lung infection. The resulting sputum can easily accumulate inside the tracheotomy tube, blocking the airway and causing suffocation. Therefore, regular suctioning is essential to maintain airway patency. However, single-port suctioning is commonly used clinically. When suctioning sputum from ICU patients, it easily irritates the patient's throat, triggering violent coughing and causing sputum and other secretions to splatter, increasing the risk of cross-infection between medical staff and patients. There is an urgent need to address the problems of sputum splatter and the risk of infection during suctioning. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned defects in the prior art and provide a splash protection device that is easy to operate, low in cost, and can effectively prevent sputum from splashing out during suctioning, thus providing good protection.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a splash protection device, including a protective cover body. The protective cover body is configured as a funnel-shaped structure with openings at both the top and bottom. The diameter of the protective cover body gradually decreases from top to bottom. The protective cover body includes an upper protective shell, a lower protective shell, a flexible connecting area, and an interface for installation and connection with a throat located at an air cut-out. The upper and lower protective shells are respectively fixedly connected to both ends of the flexible connecting area, and the interface is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the opening of the lower protective shell. The upper and lower protective shells can be folded and unfolded relative to each other through the flexible connecting area.

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0018] Please refer to Figure 1The present invention provides a splash protection device, including a protective cover body 1. The components of this embodiment will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, the protective cover body 1 is configured as a funnel-shaped structure with openings at both the top and bottom, and the diameter of the protective cover body 1 gradually decreases from top to bottom.

[0020] In this embodiment, the protective cover body 1 may include an upper protective shell 11, a lower protective shell 12, a flexible connection area 13, and an interface 14 for installation and connection with the throat tube located at the tracheotomy. The upper protective shell 11 and the lower protective shell 12 are respectively fixedly connected to the two ends of the flexible connection area 13, and the interface 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the opening of the lower protective shell 12.

[0021] like Figure 2 As shown, the top edge of the upper protective shell 11 can be bent inward to form a circular blocking flange 15.

[0022] Among them, the blocking flange 15 can prevent sputum adhering to the inner wall of the protective cover body 1 from flowing out along the edge of the upper protective shell 11 when sputum is sprayed into the inside of the protective cover body 1.

[0023] Preferably, the top edge of the upper protective shell 11 and the blocking flange 15 can form a rounded transition. The rounded transition design improves safety, avoids injury to the user from sharp edges, and enhances safety and comfort during use.

[0024] In this embodiment, both the upper protective shell 11 and the lower protective shell 12 can be made of medical-grade rigid plastic materials, such as PP, rigid PVC, etc.; the flexible connection area 13 can be made of medical-grade flexible plastic materials, such as PE, soft PVC, etc. This embodiment does not limit the above two plastic materials.

[0025] like Figure 3 As shown, during implementation, the upper protective shell 11 and the lower protective shell 12 can be folded and unfolded to each other through the flexible connection area 13.

[0026] Specifically, the upper protective shell 11, as the upper structure of the protective cover body 1, is made of medical-grade hard plastic material, which has a certain hardness and strength and can stably maintain its shape; the lower protective shell 12, as the lower structure of the protective cover body 1, provides a fixed connection position for the interface 14 and provides external support for the channel for the suction tube to be inserted into the larynx during suctioning. The lower protective shell 12, together with the upper protective shell 11 and the flexible connection area 13, constitute a space to prevent sputum from splashing out, which can effectively prevent sputum or other secretions from splashing out during suctioning and has a good protective effect.

[0027] Furthermore, the flexible connection area 13 has good toughness and foldability, and can withstand multiple folding and unfolding without being easily damaged. This allows medical staff to adjust the state of the protective cover body 1 as needed. When not in use, it can be folded and stored to save space, and when in use, it can be quickly unfolded and kept in the unfolded state.

[0028] Preferably, the opening shape of interface 14 can be set to circular. A circular opening shape matches the shape of the suction catheter, facilitating insertion and removal of the suction catheter and improving the efficiency and smoothness of the suctioning operation.

[0029] Preferably, the recess depth on the protective cover body 1 at the position of the upper protective shell 11 can be greater than the recess depth at the position of the lower protective shell 12. This design allows the upper protective shell 11 to provide sufficient space when folded, so that the lower protective shell 12 can be completely stored inside the upper protective shell 11, reducing the overall volume and facilitating storage and transportation.

[0030] In this embodiment, the upper protective cover 11 and the interface 13 of the disposable protective cover body 1 are first pulled outward to fully unfold them. Then, the ventilator tubing is temporarily disconnected and connected to the tracheotomy tube located at the tracheostomy site through the interface 13. When suctioning sputum, medical staff hold the suction tube and insert it into the tracheotomy tube through the interface 14 to suction sputum. After suctioning is completed, the suction tube and the protective cover body 1 are removed in sequence, and the protective cover body 1 can be discarded into the medical waste bin.

[0031] In summary, this invention can effectively prevent sputum and other secretions from splashing out during sputum suction, providing excellent protection and greatly reducing the risk of cross-infection between patients and medical staff. It is also easy to operate and has low production costs.

[0032] The above embodiments are preferred embodiments of the present utility model, but the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited to the above embodiments. Any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be considered equivalent substitutions and shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
