Abstract:
Objective To design a positive and negative pressure sequential irrigation suction device and explore its efficacy when applied to unblocking nasoenteric tubes.Methods The device consisted of a positive-pressure irrigation component,a negative-pressure suction component,a three-way adapter and a precise unblocker.The positive-pressure irrigation compo-nent was composed of a positive-pressure irrigation unit,a positive pressure regulator,a pressure sensor,a pressure bag and etc;the negative-pressure suction component was made up of a negative-pressure suction unit,a negative pressure regulator,a negative-pressure gauge,a negative-pressure bottle and etc.The pressure bag was hollow cylinder-shaped,and made of ordinary polyvinyl chloride for its inner layer and acrylonitrile-styrene-butadiene copolymer for its outer layer.Sixty patients with nasoenteric tube blockage were selected and randomly divided into a control group and an observation group,with 30 cases in each group.Irrigation suction was carried out with a 10 mL syringe for the control group and with the device for the observation group,and then unblocking was performed with lukewarm water between 38 and 40 degrees.The two groups were compared in terms of the unblocking efficacy,time required for unblocking and the days and cost of nutritional support.SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results The observation group gained advantages over the control group in terms of the total effective rate(93.3％vs 73.4％),unblocking efficacy,time required for unblocking((7.63±4.97)min vs(10.73±4.57)min),days of nutritional support((10.07±3.07)d vs(13.03±4.05)d)and cost of nutritional support((3 180±260)yuan vs(4 550±660)yuan).Conclusion The device developed effectively enhances the efficacy for unblocking nasoenteric tubes,shortens the time required and decreases the days and cost of nutritional support,and thus is worthy promoting practi-cally.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(1):114-117]
