Breathing Circuit Catheter Mount

Product Overview

The Breathing Circuit Catheter Mount is a key accessory in respiratory support therapy.

Its core function is to provide a flexible yet stable connection between the endotracheal tube, tracheostomy tube, and the breathing circuit. In clinical use, the mount transfers the weight of the respiratory system away from the patient, effectively reducing resistance on the endotracheal tube or laryngeal mask and minimizing excessive movement during breathing. This helps reduce tracheal trauma and creates a safer respiratory support environment. It is an indispensable medical accessory in intensive care, surgical anesthesia, and other settings.

Product Features

1.Safe and reliable material: Made of medical-grade plastic that fully complies with medical safety standards. It provides excellent airtightness to prevent gas leaks that could affect respiratory support, and offers strong pressure resistance to adapt to various clinical respiratory support scenarios requiring different pressure levels.

2.Flexible angle adjustment: Equipped with dual swivel connectors, allowing medical staff to freely adjust the mount angle according to the patient’s position, such as lying or semi-recumbent. This ensures optimal alignment with the breathing circuit, fundamentally preventing twisting or pulling of the artificial airway and ensuring airway patency.

3.Practical and user-friendly design: The product is lightweight and easy to adjust in height. It effectively prevents condensate produced by the ventilator from flowing back into the patient’s airway, reducing the risk of infection. It also has strong load-bearing capacity, ensuring that placing the circuit does not cause skin pressure injuries.

4.Wide compatibility: Highly adaptable and compatible with various ventilators and anesthesia machines available on the market. It stably ensures connection compatibility of the breathing circuit without requiring additional customized accessories, thereby reducing clinical usage costs.

Core Functions

1.Ensures breathing circuit stability: The secure fixation device firmly holds the ventilator circuit in place, preventing movement or displacement. This avoids airway injury or related complications caused by unstable tubing, providing a safe foundation for respiratory support therapy.

2.Reduces iatrogenic pressure injuries: The scientifically designed fixation method significantly reduces the direct contact area and pressure between the ventilator circuit and the patient’s skin, lowering the risk of iatrogenic pressure injuries and improving patient comfort during treatment.

3.Improves nursing efficiency: Simplifies the process of securing the ventilator circuit, eliminating complex procedures and effectively reducing the daily workload of medical staff. This allows caregivers to focus more on patient monitoring and overall care efficiency.

Applicable Scenarios

The Breathing Circuit Catheter Mount is widely used in various clinical settings requiring respiratory support, including hospital intensive care units (ICUs), surgical anesthesia rooms, and postoperative recovery rooms. It is suitable for critically ill patients who require long-term respiratory support after endotracheal intubation or tracheostomy, as well as patients needing anesthetic respiratory support during surgery. The mount provides stable circuit connection for all types of respiratory support therapy.

Usage Instructions and Precautions

Usage Instructions:

1.Secure the mount: Firmly attach the Breathing Circuit Catheter Mount to a stable location such as the bedside or equipment stand, ensuring there is no looseness or shaking.

2.Adjust the angle: Based on the patient’s actual position and the direction of the circuit, adjust the mount to the optimal angle to ensure smooth connection of the tubing.

3.Place the circuit: Gently place the breathing circuit into the support groove of the mount, taking care to avoid twisting or pulling the tubing.

4.Check the condition: Confirm that the circuit is unobstructed, the mount is securely fixed, and that it does not hinder the patient’s limb movement.

5.Daily monitoring: Regularly check the fixation status of the mount and the patency of the circuit during use, and address any issues promptly.

Precautions:

1.Strict disinfection and replacement: Thoroughly disinfect the mount before and after use, and replace it regularly. If aging, cracks, or other damage are observed, discontinue use immediately and replace with a new mount.

2.Prevent condensate accumulation: If water droplets appear in the circuit, drain them promptly or use heated circuit accessories to prevent bacterial growth and infection.

3.Check airtightness: After installation, use the ventilator’s self-test function or perform a manual check to ensure there are no air leaks at any connection points.

4.Daily maintenance: Avoid exposure to direct sunlight during storage to prevent material aging, which could affect performance and safety.
