Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fixation device technology, and in particular to a gastric tube fixation device. Background Technology

[0002] In clinical practice, for some patients who have temporarily lost their swallowing function, it is necessary to insert a nasogastric tube to deliver liquid food to provide the patient with the necessary nutrition and water. The tube needs to be fixed during use to prevent it from shifting or falling off.

[0003] The conventional method for securing a gastric tube is to first use adhesive tape to fix the tube to the nasal wing area for initial fixation, then bend the tube to the side of the cheek and secure it with adhesive tape again to prevent the tube from being pulled during feeding or care, causing it to shift or fall off. However, due to the secretion of oil and sweat on the cheek, the adhesive tape may not be secure, and some patients cannot use adhesive tape to fix the gastric tube because of skin allergies to adhesive tape or facial burns. Another method is to tie a string to the gastric tube and then tie the two ends of the string to the back of the patient's head to fix the tube, but the string is too soft and cannot firmly fix the gastric tube to one side of the cheek. Once the gastric tube moves or deforms on the cheek side, it will pull the gastric tube inside the body and cause it to shift or fall off.

[0004] Therefore, this application provides a gastric tube fixation device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a gastric tube fixing device that solves the problems of existing gastric tube fixing with adhesive tape, which easily irritates the face and is prone to peeling off, and the string is too soft to restrain the movement of the gastric tube on the cheek side.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a gastric tube fixing device, including an ear hook, a fixing hose vertically arranged at the front end of the ear hook, a lock at the outlet end of the fixing hose, a gastric tube adapted inside the fixing hose, the fixing hose can be bent into a certain shape and can maintain its shape, the fixing hose is used to restrain the deformation and movement of the gastric tube at the cheek position, and the lock is used to lock and fix the gastric tube.

[0007] A further improvement of this utility model is that the fixed hose is a retractable, arbitrarily bendable tubular body with a certain supporting force, and its length is at least 5cm. The fixed hose is made of composite metal material.

[0008] A further improvement of the present invention is that the latch also includes a locking ring with an arc-shaped groove structure, and the two ends of the locking ring are respectively provided with a shaft groove and a locking groove.

[0009] A further improvement of the present invention is that the latch also includes a buckle with an irregular shape, one end of which is provided with a cylindrical rotating shaft that is adapted to a shaft groove, and the other end of which is provided with a latch tongue that is adapted to a latch groove.

[0010] A further improvement of this utility model is that: an arc-shaped pressure block is provided in the latch, a pressing handle is provided on the outside of the latch, a finger hole is provided on the inside of the pressing handle, one end of the pressing handle is connected to the latch tongue, and the extended end of the latch tongue body is bent backward to form a gap with the pressing handle. This gap is used for pressing the pressing handle down to release or fix the latch tongue.

[0011] A further improvement of this utility model is that a gastric tube is adapted to be installed inside the fixed flexible tube, and an arc-shaped pressure block is adapted to abut against the outer wall of the gastric tube.

[0012] A further improvement of this utility model is that the ear hook is adapted to the outer ear and used to fix and support the flexible tube.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. The present invention provides a gastric tube fixing device, wherein the fixing hose is a retractable, arbitrarily bendable tubular body with a certain supporting force, through which the gastric tube passes. Since the gastric tube is also relatively soft, it can bend according to the bending of the fixing hose. Therefore, the fixing hose bends the gastric tube on the cheek side into a certain shape to prevent the gastric tube from moving on the cheek side and causing the gastric tube to displace and fall off.

[0015] 2. The present invention provides a gastric tube fixing device. The buckle is fixed to the outlet end of the fixing hose and is used to fix the gastric tube to the fixing hose, reducing the sliding of the gastric tube in the fixing hose. When the buckle is fitted into the slot, the arc-shaped pressure block in the middle of the buckle is fitted into the gastric tube, but will not flatten the gastric tube and affect the patency of the gastric tube lumen. The buckle can be opened and closed with one hand, which is convenient to operate.

[0016] 3. The gastric tube fixing device provided by this utility model has an ear loop at the inlet end of the fixing tube for fixing and supporting the fixing tube on one side of the cheek. Compared with the traditional method of fixing with adhesive tape, the fixing tube, ear loop and buckle work together to fix the gastric tube, which can avoid the discomfort caused by adhesive tape to the face and improve the patient's comfort. Compared with fixing the gastric tube with a rope, the fixing tube has a certain supporting force, which can constrain the shape and position of the gastric tube on the cheek and fix the gastric tube on the cheek side better.

[0027] The present invention will be further explained below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0028] like Figures 1-5 As shown, this embodiment provides a gastric tube fixation device, including an ear loop 1, a fixed flexible tube 2 vertically disposed at the front end of the ear loop 1, a locking buckle 3 disposed at the outlet end of the fixed flexible tube 2, and a gastric tube 4 adapted to be disposed inside the fixed flexible tube 2. The fixed flexible tube 2 can be bent into a certain shape and can maintain its shape. The fixed flexible tube 2 is used to restrain the deformation and movement of the gastric tube 4 at the cheek position, and the locking buckle 3 is used to lock and fix the gastric tube 4. Specifically, the fixed flexible tube 2 is a retractable, arbitrarily bendable tubular body with a certain supporting force, and its length is at least 5cm. The inlet end of the fixed flexible tube 2 is a non-retractable cylindrical tubular structure to facilitate the fixation of the ear loop 1. A gastric tube 4 is appropriately installed. Since the gastric tube 4 is also a flexible tube, it is flexible but lacks its own support. Therefore, it is fitted inside the fixed flexible tube 2 and can be bent according to the bending of the fixed flexible tube 2. Medical staff can bend the fixed flexible tube 2 into a specific shape to fit the curve of the face, making it convenient to fix the gastric tube on the cheek side. In this embodiment, the fixed flexible tube 2 is preferably a steel wire flexible tube. The fixed flexible tube 2 is provided with ear loops 1 and locks 3 at both ends. The locks 3 are used to fix the gastric tube inside the fixed flexible tube 2, and the ear loops 1 are used to fix the fixed flexible tube 2 on the cheek side. The ear loops 1, the fixed flexible tube 2 and the locks 3 work together to fix the gastric tube instead of adhesive tape, improving the patient's facial comfort.

[0029] like Figures 3-5As shown, in this embodiment, the latch 3 further includes a locking ring 31 with an arc-shaped groove structure, and the two ends of the locking ring 31 are respectively provided with a shaft groove 312 and a slot 311; the latch 3 also includes a snap fastener 32 with an irregular shape structure, one end of the snap fastener 32 is provided with a cylindrical rotating shaft 324, the rotating shaft 324 is adapted to the shaft groove 312, and the other end of the snap fastener 32 is provided with a snap tongue 322, the snap tongue 322 is adapted to the slot 311; specifically, the latch 3 includes a locking ring 31 and a snap fastener 32, the locking ring 31 and the snap fastener 32 are axially connected, before inserting the gastric tube 4, first insert the index finger into the finger hole 325, press the pressing handle 321 with the thumb, and at the same time pull the pressing handle 321 outward, the snap tongue 322 disengages from the slot 311, and the gastric tube 4 is inserted from the slot 311. The inlet end of the fixed tube 2 is inserted and exits through the locking buckle 3. After being inserted into the patient's stomach, the ear loop 1 is adjusted, the pressing handle 321 is pressed inward and then released. The tongue 322 is fitted into the slot 311. Since the tongue 322 has an outward protrusion on its outer side, and the slot 311 has a barbed groove on one side of its inner cavity, after the tongue 322 is fitted into the slot 311, the outward protrusion on the outer side of the tongue 322 is blocked by the barbed protrusion in the slot 311, thus achieving the locking and fixing of the locking buckle 32. The arc-shaped pressure block 323 presses and fixes the gastric tube 4. The locking buckle 3 has an arc-shaped pressure block 323, and the pressing handle 321 is located on the outer side of the locking buckle 3. The pressing handle 321 is connected to the tongue 322.

[0030] like Figures 4-5 As shown, in this embodiment, an arc-shaped pressure block 323 is provided in the latch 3, and a pressing handle 321 is provided on the outer side of the latch 3. A finger hole 325 is provided on the inner side of the pressing handle 321. One end of the pressing handle 321 is connected to the latch tongue 322. The extended end of the latch tongue 322 body is bent backward to form a gap 326 with the pressing handle 321. This gap 326 is used for pressing the pressing handle 321 to release or fix the latch tongue 322. Specifically, an arc-shaped pressure block 323 is provided at the lower middle part of the latch 32. The arc-shaped pressure block 323 can be adapted to fit against the stomach. The outer wall of tube 4 is used to compress the gastric tube 4 and prevent it from moving inside the fixed tube 2. A pressing handle 321 is provided on the outside of the buckle 32, and a finger hole 325 is provided on the inside of the pressing handle 321. When it is necessary to open the buckle 32, the index finger can be inserted into the finger hole 325, and the thumb can press the pressing handle 321. The two fingers work together to pull the buckle 32 outward and rotate the buckle 32 around the pivot 324 to fully open the buckle 32, making it easy for the gastric tube 4 to pass through. The locking buckle 3 can be operated with one hand, which is simple and convenient.

[0031] like Figure 1As shown, in this embodiment, a gastric tube 4 is adapted to be installed inside the fixed flexible tube 2, and an arc-shaped pressure block 323 is adapted to abut against the outer wall of the gastric tube 4; the ear loop 1 is adapted to the outer ear and is used to fix and support the fixed flexible tube 2; specifically, a locking buckle 3 is provided at the outlet section of the fixed flexible tube 2, and the inner diameters of the two are equal and interconnected. The gastric tube 4 is inserted from the inlet end of the fixed flexible tube 2 and exits from the end of the locking buckle 3, and extends through the patient's nasal cavity to the patient's stomach. After the gastric tube 4 is inserted into the patient's body, the position of the ear loop 1 is adjusted and the locking buckle 3 is locked to avoid the gastric tube 4 from loosening and facial discomfort caused by the use of adhesive tape.

[0032] This utility model provides a working principle for a gastric tube fixation device: When in use, medical personnel first need to open the buckle 32 by inserting their index finger into the finger hole 325 and pressing the handle 321 with their thumb. By coordinating the two fingers, the buckle 32 is opened. Then, the gastric tube 4 is inserted through the inlet end of the fixing hose 2 and exits through the locking end 3. After inserting the gastric tube 4 (which exits through the locking end 3) into the patient's body, the medical personnel adjust the position of the fixing hose 2 on the gastric tube 4. Then, they simply press the buckle 32 to engage the tongue 322 into the slot 311. The arc-shaped pressure block 323 in the middle of the buckle 32 abuts against the gastric tube 4, fixing the gastric tube 4 inside the fixing hose 2. The fixing hose 2 is then bent to conform to the facial curve. Finally, the ear loop 1 is hung on the patient's outer ear.
