Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of thyroid surgery technology, and in particular to a facial fixation and protection device for endotracheal intubation. Background Technology

[0002] When performing thyroid surgery, it is necessary to fully and carefully dissect the local tissues to protect the recurrent laryngeal nerve. In order to quickly and accurately locate and protect the recurrent laryngeal nerve, it may be necessary to use recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring to monitor the surgical area in real time and avoid accidentally damaging the recurrent laryngeal nerve.

[0003] When monitoring the recurrent laryngeal nerve, a recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring patch is wrapped around the endotracheal tube and placed in the predetermined position on the body through the tube. The patch is then connected to the recurrent laryngeal nerve monitor. During the procedure, the patch records the electrical activity of the recurrent laryngeal nerve, and the monitor continuously detects and records the electrical signals. If an abnormal signal is detected, the monitor will issue an alarm. The surgeon can then adjust the surgical approach in a timely manner to protect the recurrent laryngeal nerve.

[0004] During thyroid surgery, the endotracheal tube exit point needs to be positioned slightly towards the lips. Traditional endotracheal tubes are secured to the patient's face with tape, concentrating pressure on the fixation point and causing pressure sores, nerve damage, or local ischemia due to prolonged pressure on the facial skin. Furthermore, the recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring patch wrapped around the tube is sharp and can cause scratches on the facial skin; additionally, the electrical current within the patch can cause burns. Moreover, removing the tape after anesthesia is time-consuming and laborious, and removing the tape can easily cause facial dissection damage.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new facial fixation and protection device for endotracheal intubation to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a facial fixation and protection device for endotracheal tubes that facilitates fixation and avoids facial injury to patients.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the endotracheal intubation facial fixation and protection device provided by this utility model includes: a fixing shell, a silicone pad installed on the bottom surface of the fixing shell, and straps symmetrically installed on the side walls of the fixing shell; a fixing tube is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing shell, the top end of the fixing tube is threadedly connected to the connector, the intubation tube passes through the interior of the connector and the fixing tube, and a recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring patch is wrapped around the surface of the intubation tube.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom surface of the fixing shell and the surface of the silicone pad have an arc-shaped structure, and the silicone pad fits the patient's lips.

[0009] Preferably, the surface of the connector is provided with a through hole, and the insertion tube passes through the through hole.

[0010] Preferably, the silicone pad has a groove inside, and an airbag is placed inside the groove.

[0011] Preferably, a connecting hose is installed on the side wall of the fixed shell, a valve is installed on the side wall of the connecting hose, and the connecting hose communicates with the interior of the airbag.

[0012] Preferably, the bottom surface and inner sidewall of the silicone pad are inclined, the two ends of the airbag are semi-circular, and the airbag abuts against the inner sidewall of the silicone pad.

[0013] Compared with related technologies, the endotracheal intubation facial fixation and protection device provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] This invention provides a facial fixation and protection device for endotracheal intubation. Before thyroid surgery, a recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring patch is first wrapped around the surface of the intubation tube. Then, the intubation tube is inserted through the connector and the fixing rod in sequence, and the intubation tube is inserted into the patient's body through the mouth. The recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring patch reaches the designated position to monitor the recurrent laryngeal nerve. The fixing shell is then fitted to the patient's lips, and the fixing shell is fixed to the patient's mouth using the strap. At this time, the silicone pad on one side of the fixing shell is in contact with the patient's face. The silicone pad has a soft surface and disperses pressure on the cheek, reducing the occurrence of pressure sores, local ischemia, or nerve damage. During use, the connector and the fixing tube are threaded together. The connector and the fixing tube provide support for the intubation tube, preventing the recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring patch from contacting the face and avoiding facial scratches. The silicone pad is an insulating material, effectively isolating abnormal currents and preventing facial burns. After use, the strap can be untied, saving the time of untying tape used in traditional tape fixation. Compared with anesthesia stents, this device is small in size and does not affect surgical operations. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 4 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a preferred embodiment of the endotracheal intubation facial fixation and protection device provided by this utility model; Figure 2 for Figure 1 The diagram shows the internal structure of the fixed shell. Figure 3 for Figure 2 The diagram shows an enlarged view of the structure at point A. Figure 4 for Figure 1 The diagram shows a bottom view of the fixation shell structure. The endotracheal tube facial fixation and protection device includes: a fixation shell 1, with a silicone pad 3 installed on the bottom surface of the fixation shell 1, and straps 2 symmetrically installed on the side walls of the fixation shell 1; a fixation tube 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixation shell 1, with a threaded connection between the top end of the fixation tube 4 and a connector 5; an endotracheal tube 7 passes through the connector 5 and the interior of the fixation tube 4, and a recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring patch 8 is wrapped around the surface of the endotracheal tube 7. Before thyroid surgery, the recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring patch 8 is first wrapped around the surface of the cannula 7. Then, the cannula 7 is inserted through the connector 5 and the fixing rod 4 in sequence. The cannula 7 is then inserted into the patient's body through the patient's mouth. The recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring patch 8 reaches the designated position to monitor the recurrent laryngeal nerve. The fixing shell 1 is then fitted to the patient's lips, and the fixing shell 1 is fixed to the patient's mouth using the strap 2. At this time, the silicone pad 3 on one side of the fixing shell 1 is in contact with the patient's face. The silicone pad 3 has a soft surface and disperses pressure on the cheek, reducing the occurrence of pressure sores and local ischemia or nerve damage. In use, the connector 5 and the fixing tube 4 are threaded together. The connector 5 and the fixing tube 4 provide support for the cannula 7, preventing the recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring patch 8 from contacting the face and avoiding facial scratches.

[0022] The bottom surface of the fixing shell 1 and the surface of the silicone pad 3 are arc-shaped, and the silicone pad 3 fits into the patient's lips to facilitate contact between the silicone pad 3 and the patient's skin.

[0023] The surface of the connector 5 is provided with a through hole 51, and the insertion tube 7 passes through the through hole 51 to facilitate the insertion tube 7 passing through the through hole 51 and entering the interior of the fixed shell 1.

[0024] The silicone pad 3 has a groove 31 inside, and an airbag 9 is placed inside the groove 31. A connecting hose 6 is installed on the side wall of the fixing shell 1, and a valve 61 is installed on the side wall of the connecting hose 6, which connects to the inside of the airbag 9. The bottom surface and inner side wall of the silicone pad 3 are inclined. The two ends of the airbag 9 are semi-circular, and the airbag 9 abuts against the inner side wall of the silicone pad 3. After the fixing shell 1 is fixed, the syringe is connected to the connecting hose 6, the valve 61 is opened, and air is injected into the airbag 9 through the connecting hose 6. The airbag 9 inflates inside the groove 31, and the airbag 9 compresses the silicone pad 9, making the silicone pad 9 fit tightly against the patient's skin, preventing the silicone pad 9 from easily sliding on the skin. The airbag 9 also compresses the inner side wall of the silicone pad 9, which is inclined. When compressed, the inner side wall of the silicone pad 9 expands inward, increasing the contact area between the silicone pad 9 and the skin, dispersing pressure, and improving comfort.

[0025] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Before thyroid surgery, the recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring patch 8 is first wrapped around the surface of the intubation tube 7. Then, the intubation tube 7 is inserted through the connector 5 and the fixing rod 4 in sequence. The intubation tube 7 is inserted into the patient's body through the patient's mouth. The recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring patch 8 reaches the designated position to monitor the recurrent laryngeal nerve. The fixing shell 1 is fitted to the patient's lips, and the fixing shell 1 is fixed to the patient's mouth using the strap 2. At this time, the silicone pad 3 on one side of the fixing shell 1 is in contact with the patient's face. Then, the connector 5 and the fixing tube 4 are threaded together. The connector 5 and the fixing tube 4 provide support for the intubation tube 7 and fix the intubation tube 7. Connect the syringe to the connecting hose 6, open the valve 61, and inject air into the airbag 9 through the connecting hose 6. The airbag 9 inflates inside the groove 31, compressing the silicone pad 9 to ensure it adheres tightly to the patient's skin, preventing it from easily slipping. The airbag 9 also compresses the inner wall of the silicone pad 9, which is angled, increasing the contact area between the pad and the skin, dispersing pressure, and creating a buffer zone between the airbag 9 and the silicone pad 9 for improved comfort. Finally, close the valve 61, leaving the airbag 9 in an inflated state. Connect the recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring patch 8 to the recurrent laryngeal nerve monitor for thyroid surgery. After surgery, remove the device from the patient's mouth by removing the strap 2.
