摘要:
A device for holding a tracheostoma device over a tracheostoma of a patient including a passage having a distal and a proximal opening for receiving the tracheostoma device at the distal opening thereof. A flange may extend laterally, caudially, and cranially from the passage. The flange may have a proximal side facing the tracheostoma of the patient and a distal side facing outwardly from the patient. At least a part of said proximal side may include skin adhesive. The flange may have a higher moment of resistance in the caudal/cranial direction than in the lateral/medial direction for said device by having a higher moment of resistance in the caudal/cranial direction than in the lateral/medial direction for at least a part of said flange.
摘要:
Automatic tracheostoma speech valve (ATSV) fixation brace, comprising a fixation part (2) for keeping an ATSV base element (8) in position during use, and a holding part (3) for holding the ATSV fixation brace (1) to a patient, wherein at least the holding part (3) comprises a thermoplastic material, the thermoplastic material being moldable to the local anatomic shape of the patient.
摘要:
A covering sheet (200) for covering the skin adhesive surface of a device (100) for holding a trachestoma device over a tracheostoma of a patient is provided. The covering sheet (200) comprises: a central/medial element (201) for covering the central/medial part of the skin adhesive surface of a device (100); first and second elements (202, 203) being arranged laterally of the central/medial element (201). The the peripheral border of the central/medial element (201) is positioned adjacent medial peripheral borders of the first and second elements (202, 203), said peripheral borders being defined by division lines (207, 208). A device (100) for holding a trachestoma device over a tracheostoma of a patient, comprising such covering sheet (200) is also provided, as well as a method for applying such device (100).
摘要:
A vocal valve for connection to a tracheostoma comprises a filter (16) for moisture and heat exchange at breathing through the vocal valve, and a housing (15) receiving the filter and having a first opening at one side of the filter to be connected to the tracheostoma, and at least one second opening at the opposite side of the filter, which communicates with the surroundings. A manually operated valve element (15') for blocking the air passage through the filter is constructed to close said first opening at manual operation thereof.
摘要:
The invention relates to an apparatus for high energetic ultrasonic tissue shrinkage in a target area inside a living body from an outside surface or a body cavity of the living body. The apparatus comprises an ultrasound generator, a device (21) to be applied against the skin or mucous membrane at the site of treatment, and a transducer (28) connected with the ultrasound generator to emit generated therapeutic ultrasound energy through said device. Means are provided for cooling a contact surface of the device (21) to be engaged with the skin or mucous membrane, and the device (21) is made as an exchangeable product forming a heat exchange element between the device and the tissue.
