Description
Technical Field
The utility model relates to the field of medical equipment in general, especially, relate to an have oropharynx air vent of scope (for example fiberoptic bronchoscope or fiberscope) guide function concurrently.
Background
The oropharyngeal airway is mainly used for patients with respiratory tract obstruction, is particularly frequently used for respiratory tract management of critically ill patients, and is a simple, effective and economic airway auxiliary appliance. More particularly, oropharyngeal airways are particularly suitable for patients with complete or partial upper airway obstruction or unconsciousness requiring bite blocks following induction of anesthesia. It is generally believed that the oropharyngeal airway is effective in improving ventilation and preventing the patient from becoming tightly occluded, thereby improving rescue efficiency.
In practice, the oropharyngeal airway is inserted from the mouth backwards into position, communicating the mouth with the pharynx. At the moment, the oropharyngeal airway can effectively open the airway in a very short time, so the oropharyngeal airway is a clinical rescue measure which is simple to operate and easy to master. In addition, vomit and secretion in the oral cavity and the respiratory tract can be cleared by inserting into the oropharynx air duct, so that the critical patients can keep the respiratory tract unobstructed. Furthermore, the oropharyngeal airway can also play a role in limiting the tongue tenesmus, thereby preventing asphyxia.
Traditional oropharynx air vent is cast structure, mainly includes the flange board and the fixed breather pipe that sets up on the flange board. The flange plate is used for blocking the outer side of the lip of the mouth of a patient, so that the patient is prevented from swallowing the ventilating pipe. The ventilation tube extends into the mouth of the patient and further down to the pharynx for assisting the patient in ventilation. The ventilation tube simulates the anatomical radian of the human pharyngeal backwall, so that the tongue can leave the pharyngeal backwall, and the ventilation failure or deficiency caused by tongue tenesmus is prevented.
In addition to the basic functions of the oropharyngeal airway described above, it is desirable to provide other functions. It is desirable that the oropharyngeal airway function as a guide, for example, when using a fiberbronchoscope for tracheal intubation.
The "trachea cannula" is a technique of placing a special endotracheal tube into the trachea through the glottis. The technology can provide optimal conditions for airway smoothness, ventilation and oxygen supply, respiratory tract suction, prevention of aspiration and the like, becomes an important measure in the process of general anesthesia, cardiopulmonary resuscitation and rescue of critical patients accompanied with respiratory dysfunction, and is one of the most widely, most effectively and most quickly applied means in respiratory tract management. In a word, the trachea cannula is the basic skill which must be mastered by medical staff, and plays a vital role in saving the life of a patient and reducing the fatality rate.
Endotracheal intubation is typically accomplished by inducing the patient to a state of tolerable intubation, and then exposing the epiglottis (or glottis) with a fiberoptic bronchoscope or laryngoscope. Different tracheal intubation according to the induction mode can be divided into two types, namely rapid induction intubation and conscious intubation. Rapid induction intubation is intubation of the trachea after the application of a panel of anesthetic inducing agents, particularly after loss of consciousness and muscle relaxation in the patient with neuromuscular blockers. An awake intubation is an endotracheal intubation performed by a patient while awake.
For patients with difficult trachea intubation or the conditions of airway obstruction, digestive tract obstruction, satiety, intolerance of deep anesthesia and the like, the quick induction intubation is not suitable, and the clear intubation is needed. Under the existing medical conditions, the quick induction intubation requires medical staff to complete the intubation quickly to avoid the hypoxia of a patient, and although the awake intubation requires a little loose time, the requirement on the intubation technique of the medical staff is higher, otherwise, the patient is suffered from great pain. Whether a rapid induction intubation tube or a clear-headed trachea intubation tube is adopted, under the condition that the conventional fiberbronchoscope is used for intubation, if patients with small airway opening degree, high larynx position, insufficient epiglottis exposure, oropharyngeal tumors and the like, and patients with limited backward bending such as cervical marrow injury, ankylosing spondylitis and the like are encountered, the situation that the fiberbronchoscope is not well exposed and even can not be placed in the conventional fiberbronchoscope is often caused, and the intubation is difficult. At this time, it is difficult to insert the endotracheal tube into a predetermined portion, often putting the patient in a dangerous situation of oxygen deficiency asphyxia.
The endotracheal tube can be guided by a guiding instrument such as a fiber bronchoscope or a fiber laryngoscope to complete intubation. However, these guiding devices, without suitable guiding means, are highly demanding on the intubator, requiring considerable skill and long training, and are often used for conscious intubation, and rarely for rapid induction intubation. It is therefore desirable to find a guide device that can reasonably and scientifically address difficult airways to facilitate intubation in a variety of situations. This is very important for saving the life of the patient and reducing the complications of the endotracheal intubation.
CN201798988U provides a tracheal intubation guide, which comprises an arc tube made of polymer transparent material and a positioning plate sleeved on the arc tube; the outer wall of one end of the arc-shaped pipe is provided with a plurality of annular clamping grooves, and the positioning plate is clamped in the annular clamping grooves; the tail end of the arc-shaped pipe is provided with a supporting sheet. The trachea cannula guide can be used as an auxiliary tool for medical staff to carry out trachea cannula on a patient, and can realize quick and accurate intubation no matter quick induction intubation or sober intubation, thereby relieving the pain of the patient. In addition, the device can also assist the fiberoptic bronchoscope examination, guide the intubation and the deep sputum aspiration sampling or treatment of the respiratory tract, and can also realize the function of the oropharyngeal airway. However, for structural reasons, such "endotracheal tube introducers" still present difficulties in operation, especially after the intubation guidance function is completed, and are difficult to remove easily.

As shown in fig. 2, a multi-functional oropharyngeal airway 10 (hereinafter referred to as "oropharyngeal airway 10") according to a first embodiment of the present invention mainly includes a flange plate 1 and an airway tube 2. The snorkel 2 has a proximal end and a distal end. The flange plate 1 is arranged at the proximal end of the breather pipe 2 and is used for blocking the outer side of the lip of the mouth of a patient so as to prevent the patient from swallowing the breather pipe. The distal end of the ventilation tube 2 extends into the mouth of the patient and further down to the pharynx for assisting ventilation of the patient. The majority of the ventilation tube 2, except for a small segment adjacent the flange plate 1, is substantially arcuate, simulating the anatomical curvature of the human posterior pharyngeal wall, allowing the tongue to be moved away from the posterior pharyngeal wall, preventing the inability or lack of ventilation due to tongue tenesmus.
As shown in fig. 3 to 6, in the oropharyngeal airway 10 according to the first embodiment of the present invention, a shielding structure (specifically, left and right rubber sheets 4, 5 partially overlapping each other in this first embodiment) is provided on the through-groove 3. The shielding structure may at least partially cover the through slot 3 before and during guiding of the fiberbronchoscope with the oropharyngeal airway 10. Thus, the shielding structure can prevent body fluids such as saliva from entering the oropharyngeal airway 10 through the through slot 3. This avoids corresponding hygiene problems. Furthermore, as the fiberoptic bronchoscope is advanced from the mouth to the epiglottis, it travels all the way through a substantially closed tubular structure, so that the surface of the lens is not affected by saliva and the field of view is obscured.
After the guidance is substantially completed using oropharyngeal airway 10, a portion of the fiberoptic bronchoscope may be forced open by contact with rubber flaps 4, 5. Thus, oropharyngeal airway 10 can be detached from the forward portion of the fiberoptic bronchoscope, facilitating advancement of the endotracheal tube.
Another special feature of the oropharyngeal airway 10 of the present invention is that the bending angle of the distal end (end) of the arc-shaped airway 2 is greater than that of a normal circular arc. As shown in fig. 1, the distal end of the snorkel 2 is bent further inwards by an angle a, which may be, for example, between 5-50, preferably between 20-30, compared to a normal circular arc. With such an inward bend angle α, oropharyngeal airway 10 is more compatible with difficult airway treatment angles, thereby allowing for better positioning of the epiglottis after the fiberbronchoscope has passed through oropharyngeal airway 10.
Another special feature of the oropharyngeal airway 10 of the present invention is that at least a portion of the airway tube 2 (which may be the entire airway tube 2) is a circular tube with a circular cross-section. In particular, the middle and distal portions of the ventilation tube 3 may be configured as a circular tube having a diameter slightly larger than the relevant structure of the corresponding fiberbronchoscope (the front bendable tubular structure of the fiberbronchoscope). This is more conducive to the passage of a fiberoptic bronchoscope within oropharyngeal airway 10. In addition, it helps to keep the fiberbronchoscope in the central position of the oropharyngeal airway, thereby facilitating intubation with the fiberbronchoscope.
Yet another difference of the oropharyngeal airway 10 of the present invention is that the outer side of the tube wall of the proximal portion (or called "bite-in portion") of the airway tube 2, which is close to the flange plate 1, is formed as a circular or near-circular oval structure. It will be appreciated that the outside of the tube wall of the bite portion may be thickened to form a circular or near circular oval configuration without changing the shape of the inside of the tube wall. This rounded or nearly rounded oval configuration facilitates a slight rotation between the patient's two rows of incisors to adjust the direction of the distal opening of the oropharyngeal airway 10 in the case of particularly difficult airways, as compared to prior art oval configurations.
Figure 6 shows an oropharyngeal airway 10' according to a second embodiment of the invention, which differs from the first embodiment described above in terms of the shielding structure. In particular, in this embodiment, the shielding structure is an adhesive tape 6 that at least partially covers the through slot of the oropharyngeal airway 10'. The adhesive tape 6 as a shielding structure can also prevent body fluids such as saliva from entering the oropharyngeal airway 10' through the through-slot. Thus, corresponding hygiene problems can be avoided, and the lens surface of the fiber bronchoscope is not affected by saliva so that the visual field becomes blurred.
After guidance is substantially completed using oropharyngeal airway 10', tape 6 may be peeled off by hand or forced free by contacting a portion of the fiberoptic bronchoscope with tape 6. Thus, oropharyngeal airway 10' can be detached from the forward portion of the fiberoptic bronchoscope, thereby facilitating advancement of the endotracheal tube.
Steps (a) to (e) of guiding a fiberbronchoscope for tracheal intubation using the oropharyngeal airway of the present invention will be described below with reference to fig. 7.
First, in step (a), the oropharyngeal airway 10 is properly positioned in the patient's mouth to the pharynx. Next, in step (b), the endotracheal tube 8 is sleeved on the fiberbronchoscope 7, and the fiberbronchoscope 7 is inserted through the oropharyngeal airway 10 to the pharyngeal outlet of the oropharyngeal airway 10, so that the epiglottis can be found and located by the fiberbronchoscope 7. Next, in step (c), the fiberbronchoscope 7 is advanced further, bypassing the epiglottis into the trachea. Next, in step (d), the fiberbronchoscope 7 is fixed, and the oropharyngeal airway 10 is taken out through the through-groove 3. In step (e), the endotracheal tube 8 is advanced into the trachea under the guidance of the fiberbronchoscope 7. Finally, the fiberbronchoscope 7 is withdrawn.
While the present invention has been described with reference to preferred embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various equivalent changes and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. For example, although the oropharyngeal airway is described as being a single piece integrally molded of plastic material, two or more pieces may be assembled as desired. Accordingly, the scope of the invention is not to be limited by the specific disclosure above, but is to be defined by the appended claims.
