The disposable tracheal intubation kit can be used by the medical unit to establish an artificial airway during clinical anesthesia or emergency treatment.
Composition of single-use tracheal intubation kit
Basic configuration of tracheal intubation kit: tracheal intubation, medical dental pad
Selection and configuration of endotracheal intubation package: suction catheter, connecting catheter, oropharyngeal airway, anesthesia laryngoscope, laryngoscope, medical gloves, gauze blocks, towel, syringe, guide wire, etc.
Medical staff can flexibly choose according to clinical needs, with different configurations of tracheal intubation kits, clinical anesthesia or artificial airway establishment.
Procedure for one-time use of a tracheal intubation kit
1. Patient position
In a supine position, remove dentures and loose teeth, and remove any foreign matter or secretions from the mouth. The patient’s chin is raised and the head is tilted back so that the mouth, pharynx and throat are in a straight line.
2, mask pressure to supply oxygen
Use a simple respirator mask to give oxygen under pressure for 2-3 minutes to keep the blood oxygen saturation above 95% to ensure a certain amount of oxygen in the body during endotracheal intubation.
3. Prepare endotracheal intubation kit
Select the tracheal intubation kit of corresponding specifications, check whether the catheter is smooth, use a syringe to check whether the inflatable sleeve leaks, put the guide wire into the catheter and shape it, and apply lubricating oil to the front end of the tracheal intubation and the sleeve. Select the appropriate model and size of the laryngoscope lens, check the light source, close and put aside. Prepare a dental pad, retainer tape and stethoscope.
4. Insert a tracheal catheter
After exposing the glottis of the patient, the tracheal catheter was inserted into the mouth along the laryngoscope tracheal groove with the right hand, and then inserted into the tracheal at the position of the glottis. After the guide wire was pulled out, the catheter was pushed forward 35cm, and the distance between the tip of the catheter and the incisor teeth was usually 21-23cm. Note that the tracheal tube should not be inserted too deeply to prevent unilateral ventilation by entering the unilateral main bronchus. If food or stomach contents are ejected from the catheter, it indicates that the catheter has strayed into the esophagus and should be removed and re-inserted immediately.
5. Confirm the position of the catheter
After inflating the catheter balloon, ventilate with a simple breathing apparatus to observe whether the bilateral thorax fluctuates symmetrically during ventilation, and use a stethoscope to listen to both lungs, and judge whether the position of the tracheal catheter is correct according to whether the breathing sounds of both lungs are symmetrical.
6. Fix the catheter
After the dental pad was placed, the laryngoscope was removed and the dental pad and tracheal tube were fixed on the cheek with tape in a figure of eight method.
