Design and application of new type of humidification fluid dropping joint for breathing machine / 医疗卫生装备

ABSTRACT

Objective To develop a humidification fluid dropping joint for the breathing machine to solve the problems in humidification fluid retension,pipeline leakage,pipeline fixation and etc.Methods A Infusion extension tube was involved in with 10 cm length left at the injector end.A hole was made at the side wall of the L-shaped joint of the breathing machine,whose internal diameter equaled to the external diameter of the extension tube.The extension tube was put into the joint through the hole,and the depth of imbedded tube was within 4 and 6 cm.Sealing and fixation at the connection between the tube and hole were executed with 502 glue and short tourniquet.Results The humidification fluid dropping joint could be connected with infusion apparatus of the pump or the infusion extension tube of the micro pump,which behaved well in eliminating accumulated humidification fluid,sputum suction,humidification and facilitating mechanical ventilation.Conclusion The joint developed gains advantages in easy manufacture,reducing complications and increasing the dependence on artificial airway,and thus is worthy promoting clinically.
