Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a detachable oxygen device. Background Technology

[0002] Nasal cannula oxygen therapy is one of the most commonly used methods of oxygen therapy. Its advantages lie in its simplicity and convenience. It can provide continuous low-flow oxygen and is suitable for most patients who need supplemental oxygen, as well as those with mild to moderate oxygen therapy needs.

[0003] Oxygen inhalation refers to the delivery of oxygen to a patient through a specific device or method to increase blood oxygen levels, improve oxygen supply to tissues and organs, and achieve the goals of treating diseases, relieving symptoms, and promoting recovery. However, factors such as patient activity, restlessness, poor compliance, and frequent movement can lead to nasal cannula dislodgement, thus affecting the effectiveness of oxygen therapy. Furthermore, prolonged use of the oxygen tube or pressure from turning over can easily cause pressure injuries to the skin.

[0004] To improve catheter fixation and prevent pressure injuries, various strategies are employed in clinical practice. These include regularly changing the position of the nasal cannula to avoid prolonged pressure on the same area, and adjusting the cannula's angle when the patient turns or moves. Furthermore, healthcare professionals monitor the patient's skin condition and take preventative measures, such as using dressings or increasing the frequency of turning, when erythema or pressure marks are observed.

[0005] Chinese patent CN113440416A discloses an adjustable pressure ulcer prevention nasal oxygen tube and gastric tube fixation device. Its features include a gastric tube fixation strap, which is arc-shaped and has a gastric tube clamping hole structure for installing the nasogastric tube and a fixing part for securing the gastric tube located on the face. The two ends of the gastric tube fixation strap are connected and fixed through a connecting part. This patent directly reduces the risk of dislodgement due to patient movement through the fixation strap. Utility Model Content
