Description

  The present invention relates to a protective treatment for an affected area around a cannula inserted at the time of tracheotomy.

  To protect the surrounding affected area, sterilized two pieces of gauze (product name: Sterilized Hydeer Y) are applied to the affected area and fixed with bansoukou. On the other hand, the cannula protrusion is a cylinder, and the gauze is not firmly fixed because the cannula is inserted into the neck.

  Protecting with gauze is absorbable and effective in protecting against bleeding, etc. Large amounts of blood, viscous sputum, and large amounts of secretions are protected by thickening the gauze. .

  In viscous wrinkles, it absorbs poorly and leaks from the gap between the gauze and the skin, so it adheres to dirty clothes around the neck, and there are many changes in clothes. Sometimes accompanied. Cleans and keeps the skin dirty with spilled material.

  As described above, the frequency of gauze replacement, clothing change, and wiping increases to protect the affected area and remove malodor.

  If the above leakage is observed, the gauze is thickened to protect it, but there is no waterproofing, and due to contamination from the gap between the gauze and the skin, gauze replacement and clothing The frequency of changing clothes and wiping increases. The bandage that holds the gauze is painful when it is peeled off, and the gauze is not fixed firmly because the cannula is inserted into the neck. The burden on patients and caregivers is large.

  In the present invention, in protecting the affected area around the cannula, the absorbability of the leaked substance from the affected area is increased and the waterproof property is provided, and further, the bandage is used as a fixing means, and thus the protective treatment can be easily performed. The purpose is to reduce the burden on patients and caregivers.

Means to solve the problem

  To protect the affected area including the cannula protrusion, use a single absorbent gauze pad, and make a hole so that the cannula protrusion will not be blocked. Similarly, a bandage with a hole is wound around the neck and fixed.

  The gauze pad is a material that improves the absorbability, and it can be adhered to the skin surface by providing flexibility.

  Waterproofing is performed to prevent leakage from adhering to the clothes around the affected area, and piping around the gauze pad is performed with a waterproof sheet so that the absorbed leakage does not leak from the gauze pad.

The hole for the cannula protrusion from the gauze pad is cut in the range of 30-35mm, the bandage to be fixed is the same length as the neck around the stretch, and the center part is cut 2cm Insert.

The invention's effect

  Since the surrounding affected area of the cannula protrusion can be covered with a gauze pad with a single hole and the gauze pad can be fixed with a bandage with a single hole, the protective treatment to the affected area becomes easy. The bandage can be adjusted to adjust its strength.

  Absorptive and waterproofed can keep protected for a long time, reducing leakage from the skin and reducing adhesion to clothing. The number of exchanges, changing clothes and cleaning is reduced.

  The above effects reduce the burden on the patient and caregiver.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 1 is a finished product of a perforated gauze pad and a perforated bandage. The perforated gauze pad has a structure in which a surface layer 1 that comes into direct contact with the skin, an absorption layer 2 that absorbs blood and secretions, and a waterproof layer 3 that prevents the absorbed matter from oozing out are stacked. Piping processing 4 around the pad with a sheet is applied to prevent leakage. The central incision portion 5 is cut with a width of 30 to 35 mm, and the tube portion at the tip of the cannula enters. When the tube portion at the tip of the cannula passes, the triangular portion of the cut is pushed open to cover the tube portion. In the perforated bandage, the elastic bandage 6 is 37 cm in length, which is the same as the circumference of the neck. The cut portion is subjected to fraying prevention processing 8 so that the fray of the cut does not enter the cannula.

  In FIG. 2, the surface layer 1 having a perforated gauze pad structure uses gauze, the absorbent layer 2 is made of cotton or polymer with a thickness of about 2 to 3 mm, the waterproof layer 3 and the piping process 4 are paper diapers. Polyethylene film used for etc. is used.

  A tracheotomy was performed to eliminate dyspnea caused by laryngeal cancer. Thereafter, it is a protective treatment for the affected area around the cannula inserted into the trachea. At the beginning of the incision, only the sputum was sucked from the cannula, but the sputum began to flow out from the radiation treatment mark at the top of the cannula insertion site, and the opening gradually expanded, and a large amount of secretions such as sputum leaked It was. Initially, gauze that had been sterilized to protect the affected area was applied to the affected area and fixed with bankoukou. As the opening gradually expanded, the leakage increased, and two gauze pieces (trade name: Sterilized Hydeer Y) were filled and made thicker. However, because the cannula was inserted into the neck, the gauze was not firmly fixed and there was pain when it was peeled off. When removing and using the bandage (7 part in Fig. 3) with a hole so that the cannula protrusion does not block the pain removal measures and fixation, the gauze is firmly fixed without shifting. It was confirmed that it was fixed.

  As the opening gradually expands, the amount of spillage increases, oozing into the protective gauze and the fixed bandage, leakage from the gap between the gauze and the skin increases, dirt around the neck, attachment to clothes, change of clothes Many times, the odor was sometimes caused by the leaked material. A thickened sheet of gauze was opened and covered with a hole for protruding the cannula, but due to lack of water resistance, the number of stains around the neck, attachment to clothes, changing clothes, etc. could not be reduced. As a result of considering a material that has both absorption and waterproofing, I came up with the use of paper diapers as pads. The pad was sized appropriately and wrapped with gauze. An incision (part 5 in FIG. 1) was inserted in the center, the cannula protrusion was taken out, and fixation was performed with a bandage with a hole, and it was confirmed that the state of protection for a long time was maintained.

Industrial usage

  In the medical field, it is considered that it can be applied to the protective treatment of the peripheral affected area when the medical device protrudes from the body to the outside as described above.

Production method and usage

Since perforated gauze pads need water absorption, flexibility, and waterproof properties, it is necessary to select materials that satisfy them. Although it was handled with paper diapers in a simple way, I think that the material according to it is appropriate.
By appropriately changing the thickness, size, and length of the incision, the number of types can be increased, so that it can be applied to the protective treatment of the affected area around the medical device protruding from the body other than the neck.

  For perforated bandages, cut an elastic bandage to a standard neck length of 37 cm and a 2 cm cut at the center. Although fraying prevention processing is necessary, the cut portion also needs to be stretchable, so the same processing as the upper and lower portions of the bandage is desirable. However, since fraying from the incision is small, it is sufficient to handle only by cutting. It is possible to adjust the strength of fixing with elasticity, and by changing the length, width, and size of the cut appropriately and increasing the type, it can be applied to affected areas other than the neck (arms, legs, torso, etc.) Is considered possible.
