Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical supplies technology, specifically a Y-shaped nasal tracheal intubation fixation structure for infants and young children. Background Technology
[0002] Endotracheal intubation is an important medical procedure in which a specially designed endotracheal tube is inserted into the patient's trachea through the mouth or nose to establish an artificial airway, ensuring the patient's breathing patency and safety. The purposes of endotracheal intubation include maintaining airway patency, providing respiratory support, protecting the airway, facilitating airway management, and buying time for further treatment. Nasal endotracheal tubes are usually fixed with tape. When fixing, the middle of the tape is pasted in the center of the trachea and wrapped around the trachea 360 degrees so that the trachea is 0.5 cm above the skin. Then, the tape on both sides is pasted to the skin on both sides. The fixation position is small, the pressure is too concentrated, which can easily cause skin damage to infants and young children. In addition, the fixation effect is poor, and the poor transparency of the tape makes it difficult to observe the condition of the trachea, resulting in poor effectiveness. Utility Model Content

This Y-shaped design can evenly distribute pressure to both sides of the nostrils, avoiding excessive local pressure. At the same time, the use of soft materials and cushioning pads reduces irritation to the infant's skin and maximizes the protection of the infant's nostrils, preventing pressure injury. The dual-fixation groove design allows for selection of either of the infant's two nostrils, and the use of transparent pressure plates for fixation ensures that the tube does not shift. The fixation is firm and easy to observe, improving the safety and comfort of tracheal fixation and effectively solving the problems in the background art.

Detailed Implementation
[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] Please see Figure 1-3 This embodiment provides a technical solution: a Y-shaped nasotracheal intubation fixation structure for infants and young children, including a Y-shaped piece 1;
[0021] Y-shaped sheet 1: A flexible pad 2 is provided at the rear end of its lower surface. Y-shaped sheet 1 is a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) Y-shaped sheet. A trachea seat 3 is provided at the front end of the lower surface of Y-shaped sheet 1. A flexible pad 7 is provided on the lower surface of trachea seat 3. Flexible pads 7 and 2 are made of silicone or hydrocolloid buffer pads, which are soft and can distribute pressure, avoid excessive local pressure, and reduce irritation to infants' skin. Fixing grooves 6 are provided at both ends of the upper surface of trachea seat 3. A rotating shaft 4 is rotatably connected to the middle of trachea seat 3. A transparent pressure sheet 5 is fixedly fitted in the middle of the outer arc surface of the rotating shaft 4. The transparent pressure sheet 5 is a transparent polystyrene pressure sheet. Both fixing grooves 6 are located below the transparent pressure sheet 5. An elastic component is provided inside trachea seat 3. The upper end is fixedly connected to the middle of the lower surface of the transparent pressure plate 5. The elastic component includes a vertical plate 8 and a tension spring 9. The vertical plate 8 is located in the middle of the lower surface of the transparent pressure plate 5, and the lower end of the vertical plate 8 is provided with a tension spring 9. The lower end of the tension spring 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the trachea seat 3. When one end of the transparent pressure plate 5 is pressed, the transparent pressure plate 5 rotates around the rotating shaft 4. The transparent pressure plate 5 drives the vertical plate 8 to rotate synchronously. The vertical plate 8 stretches the tension spring 9, and the tension spring 9 undergoes elastic deformation. The other end of the transparent pressure plate 5 separates from the trachea seat 3. Then, the trachea can be placed into the inside of the fixing groove 6 from the opening. Then, the trachea seat 3 is moved below the nose. Then, the transparent pressure plate 5 is released. The tension spring 9 pulls the vertical plate 8, causing the transparent pressure plate 5 to move to a horizontal state. The transparent pressure plate 5 has silicone pads 15 on both the left and right ends of its lower surface. The transparent pressure plate 5 uses these silicone pads 15 to press the air tube firmly. There are two silicone pads 15, and each of the two silicone pads 15 has evenly distributed anti-slip grooves 17 on its lower surface. The anti-slip grooves 17 are horizontally oriented. An arc-shaped groove 16 is formed in the middle of the lower surface of each silicone pad 15, corresponding vertically to the fixing groove 6. The transparent pressure plate 5 uses the silicone pads 15 to press the air tube firmly. The arc-shaped groove 16 increases the contact area with the air tube, and the anti-slip groove 17 facilitates the elastic deformation of the silicone pad 15 to conform to the surface of the air tube, thus fixing the air tube. A pad 12 is slidably connected to the lower end of the air tube seat 3. The upper surface of the pad 12... Both ends of the device have arc-shaped grooves 13. The middle of the front and rear sides of the pad 12 is provided with levers 14. The front and rear sides of the trachea seat 3 are provided with strip holes corresponding to the levers 14. The pad 12 can be moved by levers 14, and the pad 12 will move to the bottom of the trachea. The arc-shaped grooves 13 correspond to the trachea, which can then padded the trachea to ensure that the transparent pressure plate 5 presses the trachea tightly. The lower surface of the flexible pad 7 is provided with adhesive tape 11. The rear side of the upper surface of the Y-shaped piece 1 is provided with two adhesive tapes 10. The trachea seat 3 is glued to the nasolabial groove by adhesive tape 11, and the Y-shaped piece 1 is glued to both sides of the nose by adhesive tape 10. The front and rear edges of the adhesive tape 10 exceed the edge of the Y-shaped piece 1.
[0022] The working principle of the Y-type nasotracheal intubation fixation structure for infants provided by this utility model is as follows: In use, press one end of the transparent pressure plate 5 as needed. The transparent pressure plate 5 rotates around the rotating shaft 4, causing the vertical plate 8 to rotate synchronously. The vertical plate 8 stretches the tension spring 9, causing elastic deformation. The other end of the transparent pressure plate 5 separates from the tracheal tube seat 3. Then, the tracheal tube can be placed into the fixing groove 6 from the opening. Next, move the tracheal tube seat 3 below the nose, and then release the transparent pressure plate 5. The tension spring 9 pulls the vertical plate 8, causing the transparent pressure plate 5 to return to a horizontal state. The transparent pressure plate 5 will then press the tracheal tube firmly through the silicone pad 15. The arc-shaped groove 16 increases the contact area with the tracheal tube, and the anti-slip groove 17 facilitates the use of silicone pads. The pad 15 undergoes elastic deformation to fit the trachea surface, thereby fixing the trachea. When the diameter of the trachea is small, the pad 12 can be moved by the lever 14, and the pad 12 will move below the trachea. The arc groove 13 corresponds to the trachea, thereby padding the trachea and ensuring that the transparent pressure plate 5 presses the trachea tightly. Then, the trachea seat 3 is glued to the nasolabial groove with the second tape 11. At the same time, the Y-shaped piece 1 is glued to both sides of the nose with the first tape 10. The front and rear edges of the first tape 10 exceed the edges of the Y-shaped piece 1, thereby allowing for multi-point fixation. Meanwhile, the flexible pad 2 7 and the flexible pad 1 2 are made of silicone or hydrocolloid buffer pads. They are soft and can disperse pressure, avoid excessive local pressure, and reduce irritation to the infant's skin.
