In the field of medical care, nasal oxygen tube, as a key medical device, plays an important role in oxygen delivery. It not only provides the necessary oxygen supply for hypoxic patients, but is also widely used in hospitals and home environments, becoming an important tool for improving respiratory function and promoting recovery. The design of nasal oxygen tube has many subtleties in ensuring the efficiency and stability of oxygen delivery.The structural design of nasal oxygen tube is the key to its efficient oxygen delivery. It usually consists of components such as oxygen delivery tube, nasal plug, oxygen delivery branch tube, movable slide buckle, tee and connector. These components work together to safely and stably deliver oxygen from the oxygen source to the patient's nasal cavity. The design of the nasal plug part is particularly important. It uses a soft material that can fit the patient's nostrils comfortably, ensuring that oxygen can flow smoothly into both nostrils and reach the lungs. At the same time, the aperture size of the nasal plug is also carefully calculated to ensure the suitability of the oxygen flow rate.The material selection of nasal oxygen tube is also an important factor in ensuring its stable oxygen delivery. Common nasal oxygen tube materials include plastic and silicone. Plastic nasal oxygen tubes are relatively cheap and suitable for short-term use, while silicone nasal oxygen tubes are more flexible and durable and suitable for long-term use. Silicone material not only has less irritation to the patient's nasal cavity, but also provides better comfort and tolerance, thus ensuring that patients can remain comfortable when using nasal oxygen tubes for a long time.In addition, the design of nasal oxygen tubes also takes into account various details in the oxygen delivery process. For example, the design of the movable slider allows the nasal oxygen tube to be flexibly adjusted according to the head size of different patients, ensuring the stability and comfort of oxygen delivery. The setting of the three-way and the joint facilitates the diversion and connection of oxygen, allowing the nasal oxygen tube to seamlessly connect with other medical equipment to form a complete oxygen delivery system.When using nasal oxygen tubes, medical staff will also accurately adjust the oxygen flow rate according to the patient's specific situation and needs. By adjusting the oxygen flow rate, it can ensure that the patient obtains an appropriate concentration of oxygen supply to meet their breathing needs and promote recovery.In summary, the design of nasal oxygen tube ensures the high efficiency and stability of oxygen delivery, and provides patients with a safe and reliable oxygen delivery solution through sophisticated structural design, appropriate material selection and detail consideration.
