[0028] Nasal cannulas are commonly used to administer CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) therapy. In recent years, with the development of non-invasive respiratory support technologies, non-invasive ventilation therapy has become a routine technique. Nasal cannulas, as one of the most important tools used in this field, have been continuously innovated in recent years.
[0029] In related technologies, infants and young children often resist wearing nasal oxygen tubes, making it difficult for them to cooperate during oxygen therapy. This can easily lead to situations where the nasal cannula is not securely fixed or the nasal cannula falls off.
[0030] To address some of the problems in the related technologies, this application provides a nipple-type nasal oxygen cannula. When oxygen therapy is needed for infants, the nasal tube 13, which is suitable for the infant's nostril, is simply installed on the support plate 21 via the connector 14. Then, the nipple body 22 is screwed and fixed to one side of the support plate 21 via the threaded sleeve 24 and the threaded wall 241. At the same time, the first interface 23 moves with the nipple body 22 and is connected to the diversion tube 12. Then, the nipple body 22 on one side of the support plate 21 is placed into the infant's mouth, and the nasal tube 13 above the nipple body 22 is accurately inserted into the infant's nostril. Finally, the support plate 21 is fixed to the infant's mouth via the fixing component 25.
[0031] This application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0032] Combination Figures 1-3 This application provides a pacifier-type nasal oxygen cannula, including a nasal oxygen cannula body 1. The nasal oxygen cannula body 1 includes: an oxygen supply tube 11 with a shunt tube 12 at one end; a wearing comfort component 2 at one end of the shunt tube 12, the wearing comfort component 2 including: a support plate 21 at one end of the shunt tube 12; a nasal insertion tube 13 at one side of the support plate 21; a connector 14 on the support plate 21 and the nasal insertion tube 13; a pacifier body 22 at one side of the support plate 21 and below the nasal insertion tube 13; an oxygen outlet 221 penetrating the outside of the pacifier body 22; a first interface 23 inside the pacifier body 22 and connected to the shunt tube 12; a threaded sleeve 24 at the bottom of the pacifier body 22, and a threaded wall 241 on one side of the support plate 21 that mates with the threaded sleeve 24; and a fixing component 25 at the outside of the support plate 21.
[0033] In use, the nasal cannula 13, suitable for the infant's nostril, is installed on the support plate 21 via the connector 14. Then, the nipple body 22 is screwed and fixed to one side of the support plate 21 via the threaded sleeve 24 and threaded wall 241. At the same time, the first interface 23 moves with the nipple body 22 and is connected to the diversion tube 12. Then, the nipple body 22 on one side of the support plate 21 is placed into the infant's mouth and held in the mouth. At the same time, the nasal cannula 13 above the nipple body 22 is accurately inserted into the infant's nostril, allowing the infant to inhale oxygen. Then, the support plate 21 is fixed to the infant's mouth via the fixing component 25. The nipple body 22 can attract the infant's attention and soothe the infant's emotions, making them cooperate with oxygen therapy. This increases the stability of the nipple-type nasal oxygen tube when worn and makes it easy to disassemble, clean and disinfect the nasal cannula 13 and the nipple body 22.
[0034] Specifically, the nasal cannula 13 adapted for infants and young children can be installed on the support plate 21 via the connector 14.
[0035] Specifically, the relative position of the nipple body and the nasal tube conforms to the facial anatomy of infants, so that the nasal tube is naturally inserted into the nostril when the infant sucks on the nipple.
[0036] Specifically, a one-way valve is installed inside the shunt tube 12 to prevent the carbon dioxide exhaled by the infant from flowing back into the oxygen supply tube 11. This section is not shown in the attached diagram of the instruction manual.
[0037] In some embodiments, a sealing ring 26 that matches the threaded sleeve 24 is provided on one side of the support plate 21 and is sleeved on the outside of the threaded wall 241, which increases the sealing of the nipple body 22 installed on one side of the support plate 21 and prevents oxygen leakage.
[0038] In some embodiments, the fixing component 25 includes: a fixing rope 251 disposed on the outside of the support plate 21; and a tightening block 252 sleeved on the outside of the fixing rope 251. When fixing, the fixing rope 251 is wrapped around the back of the infant's ear, and the excess fixing rope 251 hangs down below the infant's chin. Then, the tightening block 252 is moved upward and the fixing rope 251 is gently pulled so that the tightening block 252 tightens and fixes the fixing rope 251 to the infant's face.
[0039] Specifically, the fixing rope 251 is made of silicone tubing, which has a certain degree of flexibility to avoid injuring the jaw of infants and young children.
[0040] In some embodiments, one end of the tightening block 252 is provided with a pad 253 and is sleeved on the outside of the fixing rope 251 to protect the infant's chin and prevent the tightening block 252 from chafing the infant's chin skin.
[0041] In some embodiments, a face pad 27 is provided on the outside of the fixing rope 251 to pad the fixing rope 251 and prevent the fixing rope 251 from strangling the infant's face when tightened.
[0042] In some embodiments, a buckle 271 is provided between the face pad 27 and the fixing rope 251, so that the face pad 27 and the fixing rope 251 are engaged and connected, making it convenient to disassemble, replace and adjust the position of the face pad 27.
[0043] In some embodiments, the connector 14 includes: a connecting block 141 disposed on one side of the support plate 21 and located outside the nasal tube 13; a second interface 142 disposed on the other side of the connecting block 141 and connected to the diversion tube 12. The nasal tube 13 can be disassembled and assembled by inserting and removing the connecting block 141, which increases the convenience of disassembling and assembling the nasal tube 13.
[0044] In some embodiments, a slot 143 is provided on one side of the support plate 21 to engage with the connecting block 141, thereby locking the connecting block 141 and the support plate 21 together, increasing the stability of the nasal tube 13 after installation and preventing it from easily falling off.
