Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The disclosure relates to the medical technology field, particularly to a carbon dioxide (CO₂) and other gas compensation device and system connected to a universal ventilator.

BACKGROUND

Traditional ventilators do not have CO₂ compensation functionality. When used, if the patient's end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO₂) is low and the carbon dioxide partial pressure is low, it can cause the patient to suffer from respiratory alkalosis; if the end-tidal carbon dioxide is high and the carbon dioxide partial pressure is high, it indicates CO₂ retention, which can cause the patient to suffer from respiratory acidosis.

Currently, for low end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure (respiratory alkalosis), a bag or collection device is generally used to cover the patient's mouth and nose, allowing the patient to re-inhale the exhaled carbon dioxide. For example, the patent with the publication number “CN103536995B” reveals an oxygen mask, including a mask body and a gas storage device. A first one-way valve is set between the mask body and the gas storage device, and a first air hole and a second air hole are set between the first one-way valve and the gas storage device. The mask body and the gas storage device are connected through a pipeline structure, which includes interconnected first and second pipelines. The first pipeline has a first air hole and a third air hole on its wall, and the second pipeline has a fourth air hole. The fourth air hole is connected to the second air hole. This structure allows part of the exhaled carbon dioxide to remain in the second pipeline during exhalation. During inhalation, this part of carbon dioxide is inhaled into the first pipeline and mixed with oxygen from the storage gas device, thus avoiding discomfort caused by excessive carbon dioxide expulsion due to high oxygen concentration inhalation.

However, the above-mentioned oxygen mask cannot precisely control the amount of carbon dioxide gas needed by the patient, nor can it precisely monitor and adjust the incoming carbon dioxide, failing to reflect the patient's end-tidal carbon dioxide situation, thus affecting the treatment effect of the ventilator.

Embodiment 1

An embodiment of this disclosure provides a CO₂ and other gas compensation device connected to a universal ventilator, as shown in FIG. 1, including: the device body, which contains a respiratory gas CO₂ compensation device 9. Inside the respiratory gas CO₂ compensation device 9, an airway 10 is set up. The output end of the airway 10 is connected to a respiratory parameter detection module 4, which is connected to the respiratory terminal 5. Inside the respiratory terminal 5, a proximal pressure sensor 7 and an end-tidal carbon dioxide sensor 8 are installed. The proximal pressure sensor 7 is used to detect the gas pressure inside the respiratory terminal 5, and the end-tidal carbon dioxide sensor 8 is used to detect the end-tidal carbon dioxide value inside the respiratory terminal 5. The proximal pressure sensor 7 and the end-tidal carbon dioxide sensor 8 are electrically connected to the respiratory gas CO₂ compensation device 9, individually. The respiratory gas CO₂ compensation device 9 delivers carbon dioxide into the respiratory terminal 5 based on the detection values of the proximal pressure sensor 7 and the end-tidal carbon dioxide sensor 8 through the respiratory parameter detection module 4.

The respiratory terminal 5 can be either a mask or a breathing tube intubation.

The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are: The device body includes a respiratory gas CO₂ compensation device 9, a respiratory parameter detection module 4, and a respiratory terminal 5. The respiratory terminal 5 can be either a mask or a breathing tube intubation for the patient 6 to use for breathing. The respiratory gas CO₂ compensation device 9 has an airway 10 set up inside, with the input end of the airway 10 able to connect to a gas source, including a carbon dioxide gas source 1 or other active gases needed by the patient 6. To prevent the patient 6 from experiencing respiratory alkalosis when using the ventilator 2, it is necessary to provide carbon dioxide to the patient 6 through the respiratory terminal 5. Taking carbon dioxide gas as an example, one end of the airway 10 is connected to the carbon dioxide gas source 1, and the other end of the airway 10 is connected to the respiratory parameter detection module 4. The output end of the respiratory parameter detection module 4 is connected to the respiratory terminal 5. At this point, starting the respiratory gas CO₂ compensation device 9 can allow carbon dioxide to enter the airway 10 from the input end, then flow into the respiratory parameter detection module 4 along the airway 10. The respiratory parameter detection module 4 can monitor the parameters of the carbon dioxide entering the airway 10. Then, the carbon dioxide gas flows into the respiratory terminal 5 through the output end of the respiratory parameter detection module 4, thus providing carbon dioxide to the patient 6 and avoiding respiratory alkalosis in the patient 6. The proximal pressure sensor 7 and the end-tidal carbon dioxide sensor 8 are set inside the respiratory terminal 5. The proximal pressure sensor 7 can detect the gas pressure inside the respiratory terminal 5. The end-tidal carbon dioxide sensor 8 can detect the end-tidal carbon dioxide value inside the respiratory terminal 5, thereby reflecting the patient 6's end-tidal carbon dioxide situation. The respiratory gas CO₂ compensation device 9 can compensate carbon dioxide gas or other active gases into the respiratory terminal 5. The respiratory parameter detection module 4 can monitor the parameters of the incoming carbon dioxide. The respiratory gas CO₂ compensation device 9, in coordination with the respiratory parameter detection module 4, achieves precise monitoring and adjustment of the incoming carbon dioxide, thereby accurately controlling the amount of carbon dioxide gas needed by the patient 6 and improving the treatment effect of the ventilator 2.

Embodiment 2

Based on Embodiment 1, as shown in FIGS. 1-5, the airway 10 has an intake filter 441 set near the input end and an exhaust filter 447 set near the output end.

The device body also includes an adjustment control system, which includes a control unit, an execution unit, and a detection unit. The control unit includes a controller 45, which is set inside the respiratory gas CO₂ compensation device 9. The controller 45 is electrically connected to the proximal pressure sensor 7 through the first cable 71 and to the end-tidal carbon dioxide sensor 8 through the second cable 81. The execution unit includes a solenoid valve 443 and a carbon dioxide regulation proportional valve 444, both set on the airway 10. The solenoid valve 443 and the carbon dioxide regulation proportional valve 444 are sequentially set between the intake filter 441 and the exhaust filter 447 and are electrically connected to the controller 45, individually. The detection unit includes an intake pressure sensor 442, a carbon dioxide flowmeter 445, and a carbon dioxide supply pressure sensor 446, sequentially set on the airway 10. The intake pressure sensor 442, carbon dioxide flowmeter 445, and carbon dioxide supply pressure sensor 446 are electrically connected to the controller 45, individually. The intake pressure sensor 442 is located between the intake filter 441 and the solenoid valve 443, the carbon dioxide flowmeter 445 is located between the carbon dioxide regulation proportional valve 444 and the exhaust filter 447, and the carbon dioxide supply pressure sensor 446 is located between the carbon dioxide flowmeter 445 and the exhaust filter 447.

The respiratory parameter detection module 4 includes a compensation mixing tube 42. The compensation mixing tube 42 uses a three-way tube. The first end of the compensation mixing tube 42 is used for the airflow from the ventilator 2. The second end of the compensation mixing tube 42 is connected to the output end of the airway 10 through a connecting tube 421. A one-way valve 422 is set inside the second end of the compensation mixing tube 42. The third end of the compensation mixing tube 42 is connected to the interior of the respiratory terminal 5 through a gas supply circuit 11.

The detection unit also includes a flowmeter 41 and a carbon dioxide concentration sensor 43. The flowmeter 41 is set near the first end of the compensation mixing tube 42, and the carbon dioxide concentration sensor 43 is set near the third end of the compensation mixing tube 42. The flowmeter 41 is electrically connected to the controller 45 through the third cable 411, and the carbon dioxide concentration sensor 43 is electrically connected to the controller 45 through the fourth cable 412.

The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are: The device body also includes an adjustment control system, which includes a control unit, an execution unit, and a detection unit. The control unit can send control signals to the execution unit. After receiving the control signals, the execution unit can allow the carbon dioxide gas flow from the carbon dioxide gas source 1 to enter the airway 10 and pass through the airway 10 to enter the compensation mixing tube 42 through its second end. The carbon dioxide entering the compensation mixing tube 42 mixes with the breathing airflow, thus achieving carbon dioxide compensation. The compensated breathing airflow then flows out from the third end into the respiratory terminal 5 for the patient 6 to breathe. The detection unit can obtain detection signals when carbon dioxide passes through the execution unit and the respiratory parameter detection module 4, and sends these detection signals to the control unit. The control unit then controls the execution unit based on the detection signals. Specifically, the control unit includes a controller 45 set inside the respiratory gas CO₂ compensation device 9. The execution unit includes a solenoid valve 443 and a carbon dioxide regulation proportional valve 444 set on the airway 10. The opening and closing of the solenoid valve 443 can control the connection and disconnection of the airway 10. The carbon dioxide regulation proportional valve 444 can adjust the pressure and flow of the carbon dioxide gas flow inside the airway 10. The detection unit includes an intake pressure sensor 442, a carbon dioxide flowmeter 445, a carbon dioxide supply pressure sensor 446 set on the airway 10, and a flowmeter 41 and a carbon dioxide concentration sensor 43 set inside the compensation mixing tube 42. When the respiratory terminal 5 needs carbon dioxide compensation, the controller 45 starts the solenoid valve 443 to connect the airway 10. The carbon dioxide gas flow provided by the carbon dioxide gas source 1 enters the airway 10 after passing through the intake filter 441. The intake pressure sensor 442 can detect the intake pressure of the carbon dioxide gas flow entering the airway 10. The carbon dioxide flowmeter 445 can detect the flow of the carbon dioxide gas flow inside the airway 10. The carbon dioxide supply pressure sensor 446 can detect the pressure of the carbon dioxide gas flow adjusted by the carbon dioxide regulation proportional valve 444. The adjusted carbon dioxide gas flow then passes through the exhaust filter 447 and enters the compensation mixing tube 42 through the connecting tube 421. A one-way valve 422 is set at the second end of the compensation mixing tube 42. The one-way valve 422 prevents the breathing airflow from the ventilator 2 from flowing into the connecting tube 421 through the second end. The carbon dioxide gas flow entering the compensation mixing tube 42 can mix with the breathing airflow provided by the ventilator 2, compensating for the carbon dioxide that is less in the original breathing airflow. The flowmeter 41 can detect the gas flow inside the compensation mixing tube 42. The carbon dioxide concentration sensor 43 can detect the carbon dioxide concentration of the compensated breathing airflow inside the compensation mixing tube 42 and send the detection results to the controller 45. Specifically, before use, the respiratory gas CO₂ compensation device 9 is set. The respiratory gas CO₂ compensation device 9 has a display screen that can display respiratory parameters such as VT, RR, Ti, I:E, FiO₂, FiCO₂, etc. VT represents tidal volume, RR represents ventilation frequency, Ti represents inhalation time, I:E represents the inhalation to exhalation ratio, FiO₂ represents the fraction of oxygen concentration in the inhaled gas, and FiCO₂ represents the fraction of carbon dioxide concentration in the inhaled gas. The display screen allows for a direct observation of the above parameters. The following is the working process of the device body, with the respiratory gas CO₂ compensation device 9 abbreviated as this device. First, set VT, RR, Ti, I:E, FiO₂, or FiCO₂ on this device. This device calculates the volume of carbon dioxide needed for compensation. During calculation, the volume of carbon dioxide in the exhaled gas can be obtained through the detection value of the end-tidal carbon dioxide sensor 8. Then, the volume of carbon dioxide needed for compensation can be obtained by subtracting the volume of carbon dioxide in the exhaled gas from the set volume of carbon dioxide. The set volume of carbon dioxide needs to be set according to the needs of different patients 6. Next, set the breathing mode, VT, RR, Ti, I:E, FiO₂, or FiCO₂, and other respiratory parameters on the ventilator 2. Check the respiratory parameters and send a status signal to this device. Start the delivery of respiratory gas. Then, this device reads the values of the flowmeter 41 and the proximal pressure sensor 7 to determine whether there is delivery of respiratory gas. If it is determined that there is no delivery of respiratory gas, repeat reading the values. If it is determined that there is delivery of respiratory gas, this device delivers the compensated carbon dioxide according to the set respiratory parameters based on the detection value of the carbon dioxide concentration sensor 43, using a carbon dioxide adjustment algorithm. The carbon dioxide adjustment algorithm requires that the sum of the compensated carbon dioxide concentration and the initial detection concentration of the carbon dioxide concentration sensor 43 be within the target carbon dioxide concentration range required in the patient's 6 respiratory airflow. The target carbon dioxide concentration range is set according to the needs of different patients 6. Then, this device reads the values of the flowmeter 41 and the proximal pressure sensor 7 to determine whether the delivery of respiratory gas has ended. If it is determined that the delivery has not ended, repeat reading the values. If it is determined that the delivery of respiratory gas has ended, this device reads the values of the flowmeter 41 and the proximal pressure sensor 7 to determine whether there is exhaled gas. If it is determined that there is no exhaled gas, repeat reading the values. If it is determined that there is exhaled gas, this device reads the end-tidal carbon dioxide value detected by the end-tidal carbon dioxide sensor 8 and corrects the volume of carbon dioxide needed for compensation based on the volume of carbon dioxide in the exhaled gas. This achieves precise control of the volume of carbon dioxide gas, as the disclosure automatically adjusts the volume and flow of carbon dioxide gas entering the universal ventilator 2 pipeline based on the gas source, feedback, monitoring, and sampling of the patient's 6 end-tidal carbon dioxide detection information, enhancing the automation, intelligence, and controllability of the device. Through high sensitivity CO₂ monitoring and adjustment control systems, the disclosure provides high precision carbon dioxide gas concentration needed by the patient 6, achieving effective treatment and medical purposes, and improving treatment outcomes.

On the basis of Embodiment 2, as shown in FIGS. 6-9, a supporting plate 1001 is arranged outside the airway 10, and several bolt mounting holes 10011 are set on the supporting plate 1001. Inside the airway 10, an electric heating plate 1002 is arranged between the intake filter 441 and the intake pressure sensor 442. The electric heating plate 1002 is electrically connected to the controller 45 and is coaxially arranged inside the airway 10. The electric heating plate 1002 has several through holes 1003. In the center of the electric heating plate 1002, a fixed shaft 1004 is set. Near the fixed shaft 1004, a fixed ring 1005 and a rotating ring 1006 are arranged in sequence. The outer circumference of the fixed ring 1005 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the airway 10. On the side of the fixed ring 1005 facing away from the electric heating plate 1002, a first convex ring 1007 is set, which is coaxially arranged with the fixed ring 1005. The outer circumference of the rotating ring 1006 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the airway 10. On the side of the rotating ring 1006 close to the fixed ring 1005, a second convex ring 1008 is set, whose inner wall is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the first convex ring 1007. Several baffles 1009 are arranged around the outer circumference of the fixed shaft 1004. The baffles 1009 are made of flexible sheet material. Several baffles 1009 are arranged in a circular array around the center of the fixed shaft 1004. One end of the baffle 1009 is connected to the outer circle of the fixed shaft 1004, and the end of the baffle 1009 facing away from the fixed shaft 1004 is close to the side of the fixed ring 1005 and connected to the inner circumferential surface of the fixed ring 1005. The end of the baffle 1009 facing away from the fixed shaft 1004 and close to the side of the rotating ring 1006 is connected to the inner circumferential surface of the rotating ring 1006. A driving component is arranged outside the airway 10, which is used to drive the rotating ring 1006 to rotate.

The driving component includes: a drive rod 1010 and an electric telescopic rod 1011. One end of the drive rod 1010 passes through the side wall of the airway 10 and connects to the outer wall of the rotating ring 1006. A long slide slot 10012 compatible with the drive rod 1010 is set on the airway 10, and the drive rod 1010 is slidably connected to the long slide slot 10012. The end of the drive rod 1010 facing away from the rotating ring 1006 is equipped with a strip groove 1012. The electric telescopic rod 1011 is arranged on the side wall of the supporting plate 1001, and its output end passes through the strip groove 1012 and is equipped with a connecting rod 1013. One end of the connecting rod 1013 is hingedly connected to the output end of the electric telescopic rod 1011, and the other end of the connecting rod 1013 is hingedly connected to the inner wall of the upper end of the strip groove 1012.

The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: Traditional ventilators 2 can adjust the temperature of the respiratory airflow, thus providing patients 6 with suitable respiratory airflow. When compensating the respiratory airflow with carbon dioxide, the temperature of the carbon dioxide airflow being too high or too low can cause significant changes in the temperature of the respiratory airflow, thereby causing damage to the airway and affecting the respiratory experience of the patient 6. Therefore, this solution arranges an electric heating plate 1002 inside the airway 10. The controller 45 can control the electric heating plate 1002 to heat up. When the carbon dioxide airflow passes through the through holes 1003 of the electric heating plate 1002, the passing carbon dioxide airflow can be heated. Setting multiple through holes 1003 can improve the heating efficiency of the carbon dioxide airflow, making the temperature of the carbon dioxide airflow entering the airway 10 consistent with the temperature of the respiratory airflow flowing out of the ventilator 2. The supporting plate 1001 is set on the outer wall of the airway 10, and the supporting plate 1001 can be fixed through bolt installation, thus fixing the airway 10 and improving the stability of the airway 10, avoiding the separation of the airway 10 from the carbon dioxide gas source 1 and affecting the compensation of the carbon dioxide airflow, thereby improving safety and reliability. When the flow rate of carbon dioxide inside the airway 10 needs to be significantly adjusted, the electric telescopic rod 1011 is activated, which then drives the connecting rod 1013 to move. The connecting rod 1013 then drives the drive rod 1010 to move, and the drive rod 1010 drives the rotating ring 1006 to rotate inside the airway 10. As the rotating ring 1006 rotates, it causes one side of the baffle 1009 to deflect, thereby adjusting the angle of the baffle 1009, changing the direction and flow rate of the passing carbon dioxide airflow, and then finely adjusting it through the carbon dioxide regulation proportional valve 444. This not only improves the adjustment precision but also increases the adjustment speed, facilitating rapid adjustments. As the rotating ring 1006 rotates, the second convex ring 1008 and the first convex ring 1007 also rotate relative to each other.
