Description

•1285554 九、發明說明: 【發明所屬之技術領域】 本發明是有關於-種偵測儀器,特別是指—種用來摘 測氣管插管是否正確的氣管插管自動偵錯系統及方法。 【先前技術】 當病人發生如心肺功能停止、呼吸道阻塞、呼吸道急 症等氣道問題,急救執行者必須在最短的時間内取得設備 ’進行緊急插管處理以建立呼吸道。如BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a detection apparatus, and more particularly to an automatic detection system and method for an endotracheal intubation for detecting whether a tracheal intubation is correct. [Prior Art] When a patient develops an airway problem such as cardiopulmonary function stop, airway obstruction, or respiratory tract emergency, the first aid performer must obtain the device in the shortest time to perform an emergency intubation process to establish a respiratory tract. Such as

> 了夂逼如圖1所示,目前醫 界採用插管設備主要包括:一管體1〇 ^ ^ 吕版,及一設在管體1()近 前端處的氣囊(cuff) 12。 配合參閱圖2,插管執行者將氣囊12自病人口腔伸入 氣管中。然而’人體π腔與氣管21、食道22皆相通, 且氣管21、食道22極為靠近’又病人可能有頸部短粗或顧 顯、下頷部分異|等情%,即使插管經驗豐富的資深醫師 也無法避免發生錯誤插管,例如將管子插入食道内( esophageal intubation ),或發生困難插管的情形。 氣囊12伸入後,執行插管者必須能夠立即偵測出是否 為食道插管,以便拔除並重新建立氣管插管,避免造成嚴 重的後遺症。在無法確認氣管或食道插管的情形下,目前 高級心肺復甦術(Advanced Cardiac Life Supp〇rt,acls) 用來偵測插管位置的方法有: Α·初級確認(primary c〇nfirniati〇n) 1·以喉頭鏡(laryngoscope)目視插管前端通過聲帶。 ;、、i而此方法存在一盲點·並不是每位病人被插管時都 可看到聲帶;且即使可目視插管前端通過聲帶,但在 執行最後放入的步驟中,仍可能會發生偏離正確位置 而進入食道的情形。 2·^插管後,擠壓賴球(Ambu),接著用聽診器聽胃 疋否有空氣聲,以及察看胸部是否起伏;若胃無空氣 聲二胸部有起伏,表示插管在氣管内;反之則為食道 插管。本方法盲點在於:氣流經過食道時,很容易在 聽診胸部時聽到類似呼吸聲,而無法偵测出食道插管 〇 B·次級確認(Secondary Confirmation) 1·利用潮氣末二氧化碳偵測器(End七dal c〇2 detectors)可偵測肺部内之二氧化碳。此法是以化學 試劑偵測C〇2濃度。倘若病人被插管前,喝了碳酸 飲料或服用制酸劑,或是插管前使用袋瓣罩甦醒器( bag-valve-mask )將肺泡空氣壓進食道,都可能產生 偽陽性情形;反之,當病人發生嚴重低血壓、心臟停 止跳動、到院前死亡、或是肺部有大量生理死腔( dead space)時,例如:大量肺栓塞的病人,則可能 產生偽陰性的情形。 2·利用食道債測球(Esophageal detector device,EDD ) ’藉由擠壓連接在管體1〇末端的橡皮球約75到 90ml ’若壓扁的球立即恢復原狀(< 4秒)則表示插 管在氣管内;若很慢才回復原狀(> 4秒),則表示 插管在食道内。但是當病人有大量痰液、肺部纖維化 1285554 —肺積水、肥胖等情況,使用此方法可能會使氣管插 管誤判為食道插管。另—方面,若播管前使用球-瓣 膜-面罩(bag-valve-mask)將大量空氣擠塵到食道及 胃内’則可能會將食道插管關域管插管。 C·其他偵測方法 1. 觀:插:管壁是否有水蒸氣凝集,若有,則表示是 氣官插管;反之則為食道插管。> As shown in Figure 1, the intubation equipment currently used in the medical industry mainly includes: a tube body 1 〇 ^ ^ lv version, and a balloon (cuff) 12 disposed at the proximal end of the tube body 1 (). Referring to Figure 2, the cannula performer extends the balloon 12 from the patient's mouth into the trachea. However, the human π cavity is in communication with the trachea 21 and the esophagus 22, and the trachea 21 and the esophagus 22 are very close together. The patient may have a short neck or a thin neck or a partial squat, etc., even if the intubation is experienced. Physicians are also unable to avoid erroneous intubation, such as insertion of a tube into the esophageal intubation, or a difficult intubation. After the balloon 12 is inserted, the intubator must be able to immediately detect if the esophagus is cannulated in order to remove and re-establish the tracheal intubation to avoid serious sequelae. In cases where tracheal or esophageal intubation cannot be confirmed, the methods used by Advanced Cardiac Life Supp〇rt (accls) to detect intubation are: Α·primary confirmation (primary c〇nfirniati〇n) 1. Visually inspect the front end of the cannula through a vocal cord with a laryngoscope. ;,, and there is a blind spot in this method. Not every patient can see the vocal cords when they are intubated; and even if the front end of the cannula can be visually passed through the vocal cords, it may still occur during the last step of performing the insertion. A situation that deviates from the correct position and enters the esophagus. 2·^ After intubation, squeeze the ambulatory ball (Ambu), then use the stethoscope to listen to the stomach sputum, whether there is air sound, and to see if the chest is undulating; if the stomach has no air, the second chest has undulations, indicating that the cannula is inside the trachea; Then the esophagus is intubated. The blind point of this method is that when the airflow passes through the esophagus, it is easy to hear a similar breathing sound when auscultating the chest, and it is impossible to detect the esophageal intubation 〇B.Secondary Confirmation 1·Using the end-tidal carbon dioxide detector (End) Seven dal c〇2 detectors) detect carbon dioxide in the lungs. This method uses a chemical reagent to detect the concentration of C〇2. If the patient is intubated, drinking carbonated beverages or taking antacids, or using a bag-valve-mask to inflate alveolar air into the esophagus before intubation, false positives may occur; When the patient has severe hypotension, cardiac arrest, death before hospitalization, or a large number of dead spaces in the lungs, such as a large number of patients with pulmonary embolism, a false negative may occur. 2. Use the Esophageal detector device (EDD) to squeeze the rubber ball attached to the end of the tube 1 to approximately 75 to 90 ml. 'If the flattened ball is immediately restored (< 4 seconds) The cannula is in the trachea; if it is slow to return to its original state (> 4 seconds), the cannula is in the esophagus. However, when the patient has a large amount of sputum, pulmonary fibrosis 1285554 - hydronephrosis, obesity, etc., this method may cause the tracheal intubation to be misjudged as esophageal intubation. On the other hand, if a large amount of air is squeezed into the esophagus and stomach using a bag-valve-mask before the tube is administered, the esophageal cannula may be intubated. C. Other detection methods 1. View: Insert: Whether there is water vapor agglutination on the tube wall, if it is, it means gas intubation; otherwise, it is esophageal intubation.
