Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical mouth pad technology, specifically a mouth pad for assisting gastroscopy examinations to prevent it from falling off. Background Technology

[0002] Medical mouth pads are oral care products, mainly used to protect the oral cavity and prevent teeth from biting. They can be used in medical procedures such as endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, endoscopic submucosal dissection of the gastric fundus, transthoracic echocardiography, fiberoptic bronchoscopy, and long-term endotracheal intubation for patients under general anesthesia.

[0003] For example, patent CN209018687U discloses a gastroscopy mouth pad to alleviate the technical problem that existing gastroscopy mouth pads cannot adapt to every patient and that the tongue of some patients cannot be completely pressed down. The gastroscopy mouth pad includes a protective plate, a biting tube, and a tongue depressor. A connecting hole is opened in the middle of the protective plate, one end of the biting tube is connected to the edge of the connecting hole, and the cross-section of the biting tube can be changed. One end of the tongue depressor is connected to the free end of the biting tube along the length of the biting tube, and the length of the tongue depressor can be changed. This gastroscopy mouth pad can adapt to every patient, so that every patient will not feel uncomfortable when using the gastroscopy mouth pad, and it can press down the patient's tongue. In some elderly edentulous patients, when performing endotracheal intubation surgery, the mouth pad is in the patient's mouth for a long time. The biting part of the mouth pad is usually made of plastic, and the biting feel is hard, which causes great discomfort to the patient's gums. In addition, the endotracheal tube is usually connected to the mouth pad by wrapping it with a strap, which is cumbersome and has limited stability, and the two are easy to fall off.

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, there is an urgent need for innovative designs based on existing mouth pads. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an anti-dislodgement mouth pad for assisting gastroscopy, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that some elderly edentulous patients have a long time of mouth pad engagement during tracheal intubation surgery, and the mouth pad engagement part is usually made of plastic, which has a hard bite feel, causing great discomfort to the patient's gums.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a mouth pad for assisting gastroscopy, comprising a pad placed on the surface of the patient's oral cavity, wherein buckles are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the pad, and mounting grooves are symmetrically opened on both sides of the pad, and an elastic rope is connected through the mounting groove, wherein multiple strip grooves are equally spaced on the elastic rope, and the elastic rope is connected to the buckles through the strip grooves; a mouth ring is installed on the pad and bitten into by the patient in the oral cavity, and a flexible biting mechanism for protecting the patient's gums is provided on the outside of the mouth ring.

[0010] Preferably, the gasket is provided with a limiting mechanism that seamlessly connects with the endotracheal tube to assist in gastroscopy.

[0011] Preferably, the limiting mechanism includes a slot formed on the gasket, and an arc-shaped card seat is fixed on the side of the gasket away from the opening ring; the arc-shaped card seat is disposed through the slot above the slot.

[0012] Preferably, the inner side of the arc-shaped card holder is elastically connected with two sets of arc-shaped elastic cards, which are elastically engaged with the outside of the endotracheal tube; the outer side of the arc-shaped elastic card is fixed with a main elastic piece and a secondary elastic piece, which are elastically pressed against the inner wall of the arc-shaped card holder.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the anti-dislodgement mouth pad for assisting gastroscopy is placed in the patient's mouth, and the patient bites on the outside of the mouth pad, which assists in the endotracheal intubation procedure.

[0014] Furthermore, the mouth ring is equipped with a flexible occlusal mechanism to protect the patient's gums. A thickened gauze ring is fitted over the mouth ring, and a soft pad is placed on the inside of the thickened gauze ring. The patient feels a soft touch when biting, which can protect the patient's gums during long-term endotracheal intubation surgery and examination.

[0015] The thickened gauze ring is connected to the mouth ring by both loose and textured hook and loop fasteners. The thickened gauze ring can be removed from the mouth ring for sterilization, improving the hygiene of the application.

[0016] Furthermore, the pad is equipped with a limiting mechanism that allows for seamless connection with the endotracheal tube to assist in gastroscopy. When the endotracheal tube is inserted into the patient's mouth, it is secured in the slot and the arc-shaped seat, resulting in a seamless combination between the endotracheal tube and the mouth pad, further improving the patient's comfort during the surgical examination.

[0017] The curved elastic card inside the curved holder elastically engages with the outside of the endotracheal tube. Under the elastic compression of the main elastic plate and the secondary elastic plate, the curved elastic card can be stably engaged with the outside of the endotracheal tube, improving the stability of the endotracheal tube and mouth pad combination and preventing the connection from falling off.

[0027] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-7 The present invention provides the following technical solution: a mouth pad for assisting gastroscopy examination, comprising a pad 1 placed on the surface of the patient's oral cavity, with buckles 2 symmetrically fixed on both sides of the pad 1, and mounting grooves 3 symmetrically opened on both sides of the pad 1, with an elastic rope 4 passing through the inside of the mounting groove 3, and multiple strip grooves 5 evenly spaced on the elastic rope 4, the elastic rope 4 being engaged with the buckles 2 through the strip grooves 5; a mouth ring 6 is installed on the pad 1 for the patient to bite in the oral cavity, and a flexible biting mechanism for protecting the patient's gums is provided on the outside of the mouth ring 6.

[0028] The engagement mechanism includes an inner groove 7 formed on the outside of the mouth ring 6, in which a thickened gauze ring 8 is engaged.

[0029] A soft pad 9 is fixed to the inside of the thickened gauze ring 8 at the position where the patient's upper and lower teeth bite. The soft pad 9 is squeezed and adhered to the outer side of the mouth ring 6.

[0030] A groove 10 is provided on the inner side of the thickened gauze ring 8. A rough-surface hook and loop fastener 11 is fixedly connected in the groove 10. A textured hook and loop fastener 12 is attached to the rough-surface hook and loop fastener 11. The textured hook and loop fastener 12 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the opening ring 6.

[0031] After being sterilized, the thickened gauze ring 8 is fitted onto the outside of the mouth ring 6. The hook and loop fastener 11 on the inside of the thickened gauze ring 8 is attached to the outside of the hook and loop fastener 12 on the outside of the mouth ring 6. At this time, the soft pad 9 on the inside of the thickened gauze ring 8 corresponds to the position of the patient's teeth biting. When in use, the mouth ring 6 is placed in the patient's mouth, and the patient bites on the outside of the thickened gauze ring 8 and the soft pad 9. The biting comfort is good, which can avoid the discomfort of gingival biting in edentulous patients during long-term tracheal intubation surgery.

[0032] Example 2: Based on Example 1, a limiting mechanism is also disclosed, the specific structure of which is as follows: A limiting mechanism for seamless connection with the endotracheal tube to assist in gastroscopy is provided on the pad 1.
