Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes that element.
[0036] Indwelling nasogastric tubes are a common medical procedure, primarily used for purposes such as gastrointestinal decompression, nutritional support, medication administration, prevention of aspiration, and treatment of gastrointestinal bleeding. In cases of gastrointestinal bleeding, such as gastric ulcers or duodenal bulb ulcers, where fasting is required, a nasogastric tube may also be inserted. Proper care is essential after nasogastric tube placement to prevent dislodgement.
[0037] In related techniques, the gastric tube is secured with adhesive tape. However, when the patient has excessive oil secretion, sweats, or is restless, the tape can easily detach from the skin, leading to displacement or dislodgement of the gastric tube. Furthermore, the tape requires frequent replacement, increasing the workload of nursing staff.
[0038] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides a head-mounted gastric tube fixation device.
[0039] Please see Figures 1-4 , Figure 1 This is a perspective view of a headband-type gastric tube fixation device provided in some embodiments of this application. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a headband-type gastric tube fixator provided in some embodiments of this application. Figure 3 for Figure 1 The enlarged image shown in the middle circle. Figure 4 for Figure 2 Enlarged view shown in the center circle. The head-mounted gastric tube fixation device 100 may include: a fixation body 1, a second fixation member 2, a third fixation member 3, a fourth fixation member 4, and a gastric tube fixation member 5.
[0040] One end of the fixing body 1 is used to be positioned at the patient's chin, and the other end is used to be positioned at the top of the patient's head. Specifically, one end of the fixing body 1 abuts against the patient's chin, and the other end abuts against the top of the patient's head, so that the fixing body 1 is completely fitted onto the patient's head, thereby fixing the fixing body 1 to the patient's head.
[0041] The second fixing member 2 is rotatably connected to the fixing body 1 and is positioned at the back of the patient's head. Therefore, the second fixing member 2 can rotate relative to the fixing body 1, allowing its position to be adjusted according to the patient's head, thus securing it at the back of the patient's head. This increases the number of fixation points of the head-mounted gastric tube fixator 100 on the patient's head, enabling better fixation. It also makes the device suitable for different patients' heads, thereby improving the versatility of the head-mounted gastric tube fixator 100.
[0042] The third fixing member 3 is rotatably connected to the fixing body 1 and is positioned on the patient's forehead. Therefore, the third fixing member 3 can rotate relative to the fixing body 1, allowing its position to be adjusted according to the patient's head, thus securing it to the patient's forehead. This increases the number of fixation points of the head-mounted gastric tube fixator 100 on the patient's head, improving its stability. It also makes the device suitable for different patients' heads, thereby enhancing its versatility.
[0043] The fourth fixing member 4 is rotatably connected to the fixing body 1, and a portion of the fourth fixing member 4 is used to connect to the patient's ear. For example, the fixing body 1 may be located in front of the patient's ear, and a portion of the fourth fixing member 4 may be fitted onto the patient's ear; alternatively, the fixing body 1 may be located behind the patient's ear, and a portion of the fourth fixing member 4 may overlap the upper part of the patient's ear, thereby supporting the fourth fixing member 4 through the patient's ear.
[0044] The gastric tube fixation element 5 is detachably connected to the fourth fixation element 4. This allows for the replacement of gastric tube fixation elements 5 with different sizes as needed, thereby improving the versatility of the head-mounted gastric tube fixator 100. It also facilitates the replacement of the gastric tube fixation element 5, thus reducing the operating cost of the head-mounted gastric tube fixator 100.
[0045] The gastric tube fixation member 5 is used to fix the gastric tube. Exemplarily, the gastric tube can be fixed by means of snap-fit, fastener connection, adhesive bonding, etc., and this application does not limit this.
[0046] According to the embodiments of this application, the head-mounted gastric tube fixator 100, by providing a fixation body 1, a second fixation member 2, a third fixation member 3, and a fourth fixation member 4, allows the fixation points of the head-mounted gastric tube fixator 100 to be located on the top, lower, back, forehead, and ears of the patient, thereby improving the reliability of the fixation. It also disperses pressure at the fixation points, reducing friction and pressure on the local skin. Furthermore, since the second fixation member 2, the third fixation member 3, and the fourth fixation member 4 are all rotatably connected to the fixation body 1, the fixation position can be adjusted as needed, thus improving the ease of operation for nursing staff and the versatility of the head-mounted gastric tube fixator 100. In addition, the detachable gastric tube fixation member 5 facilitates replacement, thereby reducing the operating cost of the head-mounted gastric tube fixator 100.
[0047] Please continue reading. Figures 1-4 In some embodiments, the fixation body 1 may include a first fixation segment 11, a second fixation segment 12, and a silicone pad 13. One end of the first fixation segment 11 is connected to one end of the second fixation segment 12 via the silicone pad 13. The silicone pad 13 has multiple first ventilation holes and is used to abut against the patient's chin. This can improve patient comfort and reduce pressure sores.
[0048] The other end of the second fixing section 12 is detachably connected to the other end of the second fixing section 12. This allows the fixing body 1 to be fixed above the patient's head, reducing the difficulty of operation and improving the efficiency of nursing staff. It also makes it suitable for different patients, thus improving the versatility of the head-mounted gastric tube fixator 100.
[0049] Please continue reading. Figures 1-4 In some embodiments, the end of the first fixing segment 11 furthest from the silicone pad 13 is provided with a D-ring buckle 14, and the second fixing segment 12 is connected to the first fixing segment 11 through the D-ring buckle 14. Thus, the part of the second fixing segment 12 cooperates with the D-ring buckle 14 to adjust the tightness of the fixing body 1, and the adjustment method is simple and convenient, thereby improving the work efficiency of nursing staff.
[0050] Please continue reading. Figures 1-4In some embodiments, the second fixing member 2 may include a first connecting segment 21 and a second connecting segment 22. One end of the first connecting segment 21 and one end of the second connecting segment 22 are rotatably connected to the fixing body 1, and the other end of the first connecting segment 21 is detachably connected to the other end of the second connecting segment 22. Therefore, the fixing points of the headband-mounted gastric tube fixator 100 can be adjusted according to the patient's needs, thereby improving patient comfort.
[0051] Please continue reading. Figures 1-4 In some embodiments, the other end of the first connecting segment 21 is provided with a hook and loop fastener 23, and the other end of the second connecting segment 22 is provided with a fleece fastener 24, with the hook and loop fastener 23 and the fleece fastener 24 engaging. Thus, through the engagement between the hook and loop fastener 23 and the fleece fastener 24, a detachable connection between the first connecting segment 21 and the second connecting segment 22 can be achieved. Simultaneously, the simple structure helps reduce the manufacturing cost of the headband-mounted gastric tube fixator 100.
[0052] The surface of the first connecting section 21 facing away from the hook and loop fastener 24 is flush with the surface of the second connecting section 22, and the surface of the second connecting section 22 facing away from the hook and loop fastener 23 is flush with the surface of the first connecting section 21. This avoids increasing the overall thickness after the hook and loop fastener 24 and hook and loop fastener 23 are connected, thus improving the patient's comfort when using the headband-mounted gastric tube fixation device 100.
[0053] Please continue reading. Figures 1-4 In some embodiments, the third fixing member 3 may include a third connecting segment 31 and a fourth connecting segment 32. One end of the third connecting segment 31 and one end of the fourth connecting segment 32 are rotatably connected to the fixing body 1, and the other end of the third connecting segment 31 is detachably connected to the other end of the fourth connecting segment 32. Therefore, the fixing points of the headband-mounted gastric tube fixator 100 can be adjusted according to the patient's needs, thereby improving patient comfort.
[0054] Please continue reading. Figures 1-4 In some embodiments, the third connecting segment 31 is provided with a sliding groove 311, and the inner wall of the sliding groove 311 is provided with multiple grooves 312. The fourth connecting segment 32 is provided with a retaining post 321, which is slidably disposed in the sliding groove 311 and cooperates with the grooves 312. Specifically, the retaining post 321 can cooperate with the grooves 312 at different positions in the sliding groove 311. Thus, by adjusting the grooves 312 that cooperate with the retaining post 321, the tightness of the third connecting segment 31 and the fourth connecting segment 32 can be adjusted, and the adjustment method is simple, thereby improving the work efficiency of nursing staff.
[0055] Please continue reading. Figures 1-4In some embodiments, the surface of the third connecting segment 31 facing the patient is provided with a first silicone protrusion 33. The surface of the fourth connecting segment 32 facing the patient is provided with a second silicone protrusion 34. This reduces the contact area between the third fastener 3 and the patient's skin, thereby helping to reduce pressure sores. It also facilitates skin ventilation, thus improving patient comfort.
[0056] The first silicone protrusion 33 is detachably connected to the third connecting segment 31, and the second silicone protrusion 34 is detachably connected to the fourth connecting segment 32. Therefore, the first silicone protrusion 33 and the second silicone protrusion 34 can be replaced, thereby reducing the operating cost of the head-mounted gastric tube fixator 100.
[0057] Please continue reading. Figures 1-4 In some embodiments, the head-mounted gastric tube fixation device 100 may further include a gastric tube connector 6. The gastric tube fixation device 5 has a fixing groove 51, and connecting slots 52 are provided on opposite sides of the fixing groove 51. The connecting slots 52 extend along the length of the gastric tube fixation device 5, and the gastric tube connector 6 is disposed within the fixing groove 51, with both ends of the gastric tube connector 6 extending into the connecting slots 52. This allows for the replacement of gastric tube connectors 6 of different sizes, thereby improving the versatility of the head-mounted gastric tube fixation device 100.
[0058] The gastric tube connector 6 has a connecting groove 61, and multiple fixing protrusions 611 are provided on the edge of the inner wall of the connecting groove 61. The fixing protrusions 611 are used to snap onto the gastric tube. Thus, the gastric tube is fixed by snap-fit, which is a simple fixation method and helps to improve the work efficiency of nursing staff.
[0059] Please continue reading. Figures 1-4 In some embodiments, the headband-type gastric tube fixation device 5 may further include a fixing cover 7. One end of the fixing cover 7 is rotatably connected to the gastric tube fixation device 5, and the fixing cover 7 and the even-numbered connecting grooves 61 form a fixing cavity, through which a portion of the gastric tube passes. Thus, the fixing cover 7 and the connecting grooves 61 can cover the portion of the gastric tube that extends into the cavity, thereby better fixing the gastric tube and improving the fixation effect.
