Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical technology, and in particular to a novel balloon gastric tube for dilating the pharynx. Background Technology

[0002] In the medical field, dysphagia is a common complication of neurological diseases, with stroke being the most common cause of dysphagia.

[0003] Balloon dilation has become an important treatment for dysphagia. Balloon dilation primarily uses mechanical traction, inserting a catheter with a balloon into the esophagus through the nose or mouth. At the esophageal inlet, the balloon is inflated using staged water or air injection, intermittently tractioning the cricopharyngeal muscle and activating neural network regulation in the brainstem and cerebrum, thereby resolving dysphagia caused by cricopharyngeal muscle dysfunction. However, during balloon dilation, the catheter may touch the posterior pharyngeal wall or irritate the base of the tongue and the periphery of the pharyngeal arch, potentially triggering vomiting. Some devices use an injection tube to remove the gas and liquid from the balloon before withdrawing the dilation catheter from the pharynx. This method is not only cumbersome but also slow, further exacerbating patient discomfort and potentially causing more serious harm. Therefore, this application provides a novel balloon gastric tube for dilating the pharynx to meet this need. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is to provide a novel balloon gastric tube for dilating the pharynx. By incorporating a locking component, the balloon can be rapidly inflated and locked in an expanded state. Furthermore, it can be released when the patient experiences discomfort, allowing the gas inside the balloon to flow back through the gas collection tube to the elastic balloon, causing the balloon to contract. The balloon catheter can then be withdrawn from the patient's throat, enabling timely response to sudden patient emergencies. Additionally, the handle surface features anti-slip grooves, and the finger contact area has a recessed groove for easy gripping. The elastic balloon is located inside the groove, conforming to ergonomic principles and facilitating the operator's compression of the elastic balloon. This addresses the problem of existing novel balloon gastric tubes for dilating the pharynx failing to promptly withdraw the balloon catheter from the patient's throat when discomfort arises.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A novel balloon gastric tube for dilating the pharynx includes a red furnace cupping jar, with a handle fixedly connected to the top of the cupping jar. An elastic air bladder is disposed inside the handle, and the air outlet of the elastic air bladder is connected to the balloon catheter through an air collection tube. It also includes a locking component, which is connected to the handle and is used to control the balloon state by compressing or releasing the air collection tube.

[0006] Optionally, the locking assembly includes a pressing block slidably connected inside the grip, a circular post fixedly connected to one end of the pressing block near the grip, a guide rod and a fixing rod fixedly connected to the outer surface of the circular post, and a partition block fixedly connected to the other end of the circular post away from the pressing block.

[0007] Optionally, a pressing groove is provided at the position corresponding to the grip of the pressing block, and a guide groove is provided inside the pressing groove.

[0008] Optionally, the guide groove is L-shaped, and the guide rod is slidably connected inside the guide groove.

[0009] Optionally, a return spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the grip, and a return plate is fixedly connected to the end of the return spring away from the inner wall of the grip. A partition groove is formed on the inner wall of the grip away from the return spring.

[0010] Optionally, the opening of the partition groove is designed with rounded corners, and the inner contour of the partition groove matches the outer contour of the partition block.

[0011] Optionally, a positioning groove is provided at the position corresponding to the position of the fixing rod and the reset plate, and the fixing rod is slidably connected inside the positioning groove.

[0012] Optionally, the grip surface is provided with anti-slip grooves, and the grip is provided with a groove at the contact point with the fingers.

[0013] Optionally, the elastic airbag is disposed inside the groove on the surface of the grip, and an air collection tube is fixedly connected to the air outlet of the elastic airbag, and a balloon conduit is inserted into the air outlet of the air collection tube.

[0014] Optionally, both the gas collecting pipe and the partition block are made of rubber, and the gas collecting pipe is located between the partition block and the partition groove.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects: In the above scheme, by setting a locking component, the sliding pressing block can be moved along the guide groove trajectory to squeeze the gas collection tube. The pressing block squeezes the gas collection tube into the partition groove and uses the guide groove to fix the pressing block, which can lock the gas inside the balloon, keep the balloon in an expanded state, and provide stable assistance for the patient's swallowing. When the patient vomits, the pressing block can be slid upward and the finger pressing the elastic balloon can be released, so that the gas inside the balloon can flow back to the elastic balloon through the gas collection tube and depressurize the balloon. Then the balloon catheter can be withdrawn from the patient's throat. This can respond to the patient's sudden situation in a timely manner and ensure the patient's safety.

[0016] The grip features anti-slip grooves and finger contact points for easy handling, while the elastic airbag is ergonomically positioned inside the grooves, allowing the operator to easily compress it. The partition groove has rounded corners, and its inner contour matches the outer contour of the partition block. Both the air collection tube and the partition block are made of rubber, effectively preventing damage to the air collection tube and ensuring the device's normal operation.

[0017] By setting up a red furnace cupping jar, patients can both stimulate acupoints in the throat through moxibustion inside the jar and assist swallowing with balloon dilation. This dual approach can alleviate swallowing dysfunction and meet the different treatment needs of patients. Attached Figure Description

[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a novel balloon gastric tube for dilating the pharynx, including a red-hot cupping jar 1. A handle 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the red-hot cupping jar 1. An elastic airbag 3 is disposed inside the handle 2. A locking component is used to control the state of the balloon. The locking component is connected to the handle 2. The locking component can not only fill the balloon with gas and lock it in the expanded state, but also release the lock when the patient is uncomfortable, allowing the gas inside the balloon to flow back to the elastic airbag through the gas collection tube and cause the balloon to contract. Then the balloon catheter 4 is withdrawn from the patient's throat, which can respond to the patient's sudden situation in a timely manner.

[0028] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the locking assembly includes a pressing block 5 slidably connected inside the grip 2. A circular column is fixedly connected to one end of the pressing block 5 near the grip 2, and a guide rod 501 and a fixing rod 502 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the circular column. An anti-slip groove is formed at the end of the pressing block 5 away from the grip 2. A partition block 503 is fixedly connected to the end of the circular column away from the pressing block 5. The end of the partition block 503 away from the pressing block 5 has a rounded corner design. A pressing slide groove 201 is formed at the corresponding position of the pressing block 5 and the grip 2. A guide groove 202 is formed inside the pressing slide groove 201. The guide groove 202 is "L" shaped, and the guide rod 501 is slidably connected to the guide groove 202. Inside, press and slide the pressing block 5 downwards, causing the pressing block 5 to move along the guide groove 202. At this time, the pressing block 5 will be fixed by the guide groove 202. A return spring 203 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the handle 2. A return plate 204 is fixedly connected to the end of the return spring 203 away from the inner wall of the handle 2. A positioning groove is opened at the corresponding position of the fixing rod 502 and the return plate 204. The fixing rod 502 is slidably connected inside the positioning groove. Slide the pressing block 5 upwards, causing it to move upwards along the guide groove 202. Due to the setting of the return spring 203, the return plate 204 and the pressing block 5 will be driven to return to their original positions, quickly releasing the lock on the pressing block 5.

[0029] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 4As shown, the grip 2 has anti-slip grooves on its surface and a groove at the contact point between the grip 2 and the fingers for easy gripping. The elastic airbag 3 is located inside the groove on the surface of the grip 2, conforming to ergonomics and facilitating the operator to squeeze the elastic airbag 3. An air collection tube 301 is fixedly connected to the air outlet of the elastic airbag 3, and a balloon catheter 4 is inserted into the air outlet of the air collection tube 301. The balloon catheter 4 is existing technology and will not be described in detail here. Pressing the elastic airbag 3 allows the airbag 3 to store air. The gas is transferred to the inside of the balloon, causing it to inflate. The gas collection tube 301 is located between the partition block 503 and the partition groove 205. Pressing and sliding the pressing block 5 will cause the partition block 503 to squeeze the gas collection tube 301 into the partition groove 205. If the finger located in the groove of the handle 2 does not squeeze the elastic airbag 3 at this time, the gas inside the elastic airbag 3 can be locked. Under the cooperating clamping of the partition block 503 and the partition groove 205, the relative tube walls of the gas collection tube 301 are pressed and adhered to block the air passage in the gas collection tube 301. If the gas is inside the balloon, the gas inside the balloon can be locked. Slide the pressing block 5 upwards and temporarily release the finger pressing the elastic airbag 3. At this time, the elastic airbag 3 rebounds and increases in volume. After releasing the pressure on the gas collecting tube 301, the gas in the balloon flows back to the elastic airbag 3 through the gas collecting tube 301 under the action of pressure difference, causing the balloon to depress and contract. The operator can then withdraw the balloon catheter 4 from the patient's throat. A partition groove 205 is provided on the inner wall of the handle 2 away from the reset spring 203. The groove opening of the partition groove 205 is designed with rounded corners, and the inner contour of the partition groove 205 matches the outer contour of the partition block 503. Both the gas collecting tube 301 and the partition block 503 are made of rubber, which can effectively avoid damage to the gas collecting tube 301 and ensure the normal use of the device.

[0030] The working principle of the technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows: In use, first press and slide the pressing block 5 downwards, causing it to move along the guide groove 202 and compress the air collection tube 301 into the partition groove 205. At this time, the pressing block 5 will be fixed by the guide groove 202, and the gas inside the elastic airbag 3 will be locked. Then, ignite the moxibustion inside the red furnace cupping jar 1, and then hold the handle 2 and place the red furnace cupping jar 1 on the patient's throat to stimulate the acupoints in the throat. Then, depending on the patient's condition, if the patient needs to use balloon dilation to assist swallowing to relieve swallowing dysfunction, simply insert the balloon catheter 4 into the air collection tube 301 and send the other end into the patient's throat. At this time, the pressing block 5 can be slid upwards, causing it to move upwards along the guide groove 202. Due to the setting of the reset spring 203, the reset plate 204 will move upwards and the pressing block 5 will move upwards. When block 5 is returned to its original position, the operator's fingers placed inside the groove of handle 2 can squeeze the elastic balloon 3. The gas inside the elastic balloon 3 will inflate the balloon at the tail of the balloon catheter 4. Press down and slide the pressing block 5 again. The pressing block 5 will be fixed, and the gas inside the balloon will be locked. At this time, the balloon catheter 4 can be pulled and the patient's pharyngeal acupoints can be stimulated through the red furnace cupping jar 1. The dual operation assists the patient in swallowing. When the patient vomits, the pressing block 5 can be slid upward and the fingers pressing the elastic balloon 3 can be temporarily released. At this time, the elastic balloon 3 will rebound and increase its volume. After the pressure on the gas collecting tube 301 is released, the gas inside the balloon flows back to the elastic balloon 3 through the gas collecting tube 301 under the action of pressure difference, causing the balloon to depress and contract. The operator can then pull the balloon catheter 4 out of the patient's throat.

To provide the public with a thorough understanding of this utility model, specific details are described in detail in the following preferred embodiments; however, those skilled in the art will fully understand this utility model even without these detailed descriptions. Furthermore, to avoid unnecessary confusion regarding the essence of this utility model, well-known methods, processes, procedures, components, and circuits are not described in detail.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
