Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for simulating a z. B. human lung and is particularly applicable in the field of educational tools in medicine.
  • the lungs serve the gas exchange, ie the supply of oxygen to the blood and the removal of C02 produced by the metabolism.
  • the lung is divided symmetrically into two lung halves. Each lung has its own bronchial tree and alveolar area. The inhaled respiratory gas flows through the trachea across the two main bronchi into both halves of the lung.
  • the bronchi represent a flow resistance called resistance
  • the alveolar region in combination with the respiratory musculature has elastic properties described by the term compliance.
  • stretching forces are exerted on the alveoli by the respiratory muscles. This force is called the respiratory drive.
  • a model of respiratory mechanics in the simplest case assumes that both halves of the lung are grouped into a compartment characterized by a single resistance, a single compliance, and a single respiratory drive. Such a model is called a one-compartment lung model.
  • a two-compartment lung model applies this model to each lung.
  • the actual behavior of the respiratory mechanical properties of the lung is much better describable.
  • DE 10 2010 027 436 B3 describes a lung simulator that realizes a single-compartment lung model. Respiratory tube and airway resistance are realized as pneumatic resistances.
  • the compliance and the respiratory drive are generated by a piston-cylinder system in conjunction with a linear drive in that the linear drive on the piston exerts such a position-dependent counterforce that leads to the desired elastic behavior.
  • compliance breathing drive system consist of either a piston-cylinder system or a bellows system, wherein either the piston or the movable end plate of the bellows are moved by a linear drive.
  • the bellows solution has the advantage of absolute leak-free, but the disadvantage that as a result of the deflection of the folds, the compliance is not as well defined as in a piston-cylinder system.
  • intubation simulators that simulate a trachea in which the physician, endoscopically assisted, learns to insert a breathing tube into the trachea. This is especially important when it comes to the intubation of double-lumen tubes, the ends of which must be inserted into each main bronchus. Such intubation, which is difficult to perform, is needed for frequently used single-sided ventilation. Some of these intubation simulators have one quite simple lung simulation, but not about the comfortable analysis possibilities by a computer.
  • intubation simulator and lung simulator are usually designed as two different devices.
  • the prior art does not allow true two-compartment simulation, which is a requirement for double-lumen intubation and single-face ventilation.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a lung simulator which permits both intubation simulation with double-lumen tubes and lung simulation on the basis of a true physical two-compartment lung model and which offers complex analysis possibilities via an external or internal computer should.
  • the lung simulator should be light, easy to transport and, if possible, still approved as carry-on luggage in the aircraft.
  • Essential to the invention is that a two-compartment model of the lung is achieved by the lung model has a trachea tube, which branches at its output into two narrower bronchial tubes. From each bronchial tube there is a pneumatic connection to one resistance-compliance respiratory drive system each. The entrance of the tachometer tube is pneumatically connected to an intubation port (i.e., the intubation port) through which the ventilator tube is inserted.
  • an intubation port i.e., the intubation port
  • the trachea tube with the two bronchial tubes mechanically simulates a real physical trachea with the two main bronchi. This is easily possible via 3D printing of CAD data of a real trachea. This has the advantage that the intubation usually performed with endoscopic support can be practiced under largely real circumstances.
  • the trachea tube and the bronchial tubes may also be formed by simple tubes or tubes.
  • Resistance compliance breathing drive systems each consist of a pneumatic resistance element and a compliance breathing drive system. They are preferably structurally identical for both compartments, but may also be designed differently.
  • the resistance is formed by a pneumatic resistance element, which is variable in its value.
  • the resistance is formed by a variable pneumatic resistance element whose hydraulic diameter can be changed either manually or via a drive.
  • a solution consists in a pneumatic resistance element, which is constructed as follows:
  • a conical inner body is arranged axially aligned in a conical tube. Both parts have the same conicity and the inner body is axially displaceable relative to the tube. Both parts form an annular gap to each other, whose size, and thus also its hydraulic diameter, is dependent on the axial position of the inner cone to the tube.
  • the flow resistance is a function of annular gap width and annular gap length.
  • the axial displacement of the inner cone to the tube can be done manually, but preferably electric motor, z. B. by means of a small linear drive, which can be adjusted by a path control loop for the position of the inner cone to the pipe a defined distance, which results in a defined Resistance.
  • a variable in value pneumatic resistance element is that a system of gaps is formed by thin plates, each plate to the other at the lateral periphery by an elastic material is kept at a distance. As a result, the free gap surface can be flowed through. If one exerts a force on the outer plates, the plate spacing and, in turn, the hydraulic diameter of this gap system is reduced, which leads to a change in the flow resistance.
  • the change in the gap distance can be done either manually or by motor gear.
  • the first pneumatic resistance element is pneumatically connected to the outlet of the first bronchial tube and the second pneumatic resistance element is pneumatically connected to the outlet of the second bronchial tube.
  • the compliance-breathing drive system can be formed in a known manner either by a piston-cylinder system or a bellows system, on which a force is applied via a linear drive.
  • the linear drive acts on the piston and in the case of the bellows system on the movable end plate of the bellows.
  • the inlet of the first compliance breathing system is pneumatically connected to the outlet of the first pneumatic resistance element and the inlet of the second compliance breathing system is connected to the outlet of the second pneumatic resistance element.
  • the drive units of the compliance breathing drive systems and, if driven by an electric motor, the flow resistances require a power supply and one motor drive each.
  • the lung simulator comprises a central control, which coordinates the interaction of all units.
  • volume flow V on the route from the exit of the first bronchial tube to the first compliance breathing drive system and the output of the second bronchial tube to the second compliance breathing drive system can be carried out in a known manner by measurement by means of volume flow sensor at the appropriate place in this track will be installed.

  • the linear drive of the respective compliance breathing drive system is controlled by a drive control.
  • This drive control receives the control signals from the central controller. At the same time the drive control supplies signals, position, speed, power to the central control.
  • the housing of the lung simulator is divided according to the invention into a front part and a back part.

  • the ventilator can be introduced into the front part of an opening to which a second input of the trachea tube is pneumatically connected. The doctor can use this opening to insert a breathing tube into the two bronchial tubes just before the branching.
