Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical device technology, specifically relating to an endotracheal intubation guide device. Background Technology

[0002] Mechanical ventilation, aided by a ventilator, aims to maintain airway patency, improve ventilation and oxygenation, prevent hypoxia and carbon dioxide buildup, and create conditions for the body to overcome respiratory failure caused by underlying diseases, thus facilitating the treatment of those diseases. Mechanical ventilation is a ventilation method that uses mechanical devices to replace, control, or alter spontaneous breathing movements.

[0003] In the intensive care unit, we frequently encounter patients who have undergone prolonged mechanical ventilation via endotracheal intubation. If the cuff ruptures, the endotracheal tube becomes blocked by phlegm, or other reasons occur during the insertion of the endotracheal tube / tracheostomy cannula, it needs to be replaced promptly. The standard method for tube replacement is to remove the old endotracheal tube and then reinsert a new one using the usual intubation procedure. This method is time-consuming, causes significant patient discomfort, and can lead to severe hypoxia, respiratory depression, or asphyxia in patients with weak spontaneous breathing.

[0004] This utility model addresses the above-mentioned problems by providing a tracheal intubation guide device. Utility Model Content

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0021] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0022] like Figure 1-4 The endotracheal intubation guide device shown includes a guide part 1 and a buffer part 2; the guide part 1 has a regular columnar structure; one end of the guide part 1 is fixedly connected to the buffer part 2, and the other end is provided with a flexible tube 4; an airway 11 is provided inside the guide part 1; one end of the airway 11 is connected to the buffer part 2, and the other end is connected to the flexible tube 4; a support structure 12 is provided inside the guide part 1; the support structure 12 has a regular columnar structure; the axis of the support structure 12 is parallel to the axis of the guide part 1.

[0023] The buffer section 2 is located on the end face of the guide section 1 and acts as a buffer to prevent the guide section 1 from damaging the patient's airway 11. In use, the buffer section 2 is passed through the inside of the endotracheal tube, and then the endotracheal tube is removed from the patient's body. The endotracheal tube is then inserted into the patient's body through the guide section 1, which is convenient and quick, and enables rapid replacement of the endotracheal tube.

[0024] Specifically, the buffer section 2 is an airbag. During use, gas is injected into the airbag through the hose 4 and the airway 11, causing the airbag to inflate. The inflated airbag can prevent the guide section 1 from damaging the airway 11.

[0025] Furthermore, the hose 4 is fixedly connected to the guide part 1.

[0026] In some examples of this application, the hose 4 is detachably connected to the guide 1.

[0027] In a specific example of this application, the support structure 12 is made of one or more of aluminum, iron, and copper. The support structure 12 is a metal rod with a certain degree of flexibility, which allows the guide part 1 to bend and maintain its bent posture after bending.

[0028] The total length of a conventional endotracheal tube is about 30cm, therefore the length of the guide section 1 needs to be greater than 30cm.

[0029] Preferably, the length of the guide part 1 is 70cm.

[0030] In the illustrative embodiment of this application, a connector 3 is provided at the end of the hose 4 away from the guide portion 1. The connector 3 includes a housing 31, a limiting ring 311, a piston 32, a reset structure 33, and a mounting ring 34; the limiting ring 311, piston 32, reset structure 33, and mounting ring 34 are all disposed inside the housing 31; the limiting ring 311 and the mounting ring 34 are both fixedly connected to the housing 31; one end of the reset structure 33 abuts against the mounting ring 34, and the other end presses the piston 32 onto the limiting ring 311.

[0031] When the gas supply device is connected to connector 3, it pushes piston 32 away from limiting ring 311, creating a gap between piston 32 and limiting ring 311. This allows gas to be injected into hose 4 or drawn out of buffer section 2 through hose 4. When the gas supply device is removed, reset structure 33 presses piston 32 onto limiting ring 311, resealing the buffer section 2 and maintaining constant air pressure inside.

[0032] Furthermore, the piston 32 has a vent 321 inside; the inner wall of the outer shell 31 has a sealing ring 312; when the reset structure 33 presses the piston 32 onto the limiting ring 311, one end of the vent 321 is connected to the outside, and the other end is blocked by the sealing ring 312. When the piston 32 is connected to a syringe, one end of the vent 321 is connected to the syringe, and then the syringe pushes the piston 32 to move, so that the sealing ring 312 no longer blocks the vent 321. At this time, gas can be injected into the hose 4 or gas can be drawn out of the buffer section 2 through the hose 4. After separating the connector 3 from the syringe, the reset structure 33 presses the piston 32 onto the limiting ring 311, resealing the connector 3.

[0033] Preferably, a guide rod is provided at the end of the piston 32 away from the limiting ring 311; the guide rod passes through the mounting ring 34. The function of the guide rod is to limit the movement direction of the piston 32 and prevent the piston 32 from being misaligned, which would make it difficult for the reset structure 33 to press the piston 32 against the side wall of the limiting ring 311.

[0034] Specifically, the reset structure 33 is a spring.

[0035] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 5 As shown, the guide part 1 has a scale 13 on its outside. In use, first insert the guide part 1 into the inside of the existing endotracheal tube and record the scale 13 at the current position of the endotracheal tube port. Then remove the existing endotracheal tube and insert the new endotracheal tube along the guide part 1 until it reaches the recorded scale 13 position, which indicates that the new endotracheal tube is installed in place.

[0036] In the description of this specification, the terms "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "illustrative embodiment," "example," "specific example," "some examples," etc., refer to specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described in connection with that embodiment or example, which are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention.
