摘要： The volume of a pressure equalization balloon is connected to a further volume, the pressure of which is intended to remain as constant as possible. To keep the cuff pressure in the pressure range of between roughly 20 mbar and 30 mbar, the equalization balloon is produced from a thermoplastic polymer (TPE) and is overstretched past the maximum intended control volume before first use and is then relaxed to the range of the control volume.

摘要： The present invention relates to a pressure equalizing device with a pressure equalizing balloon, the volume of which is connected to a further volume, the pressure of which is intended to be kept at as constant a value as possible even in the event of an enforced change in volume. In order therefore to keep the cuff pressure within the pressure range that is generally considered to be useful and optimal of between approximately 20 mbar and 30 mbar, but also make possible, if required, to increase the pressure in a controlled manner, according to the invention the equalizing balloon keeping the pressure generally constant is accommodated in a protective sleeve which has radial bulges deviating from a uniformly concave form matched to the outer contour of the balloon, which bulges are designed such that the equalizing balloon first abuts against the wall areas of the protective sleeve matched to the contour of the balloon and then, when pressure is increased, extends only into the bulges, whereby the pressure in the equalizing balloon gradually increases as the volume in the bulges increases.

摘要： To be able to prevent a situation in which, in percutaneous dilational tracheostomy, the guide catheter already inserted into the trachea can kink, a device for percutaneous dilational tracheostomy is disclosed which has a puncture needle, a guide catheter and a guidewire. The puncture needle has a ground tip at its distal end. The maximum external diameter of the puncture needle is smaller than the minimum internal diameter of the guide catheter, and the puncture needle is insertable so far into the guide catheter that the ground tip of the puncture needle protrudes beyond the distal end of the guide catheter. The maximum diameter of the guidewire is smaller than the minimum internal diameter of the puncture needle, with the result that the guidewire can be guided through the puncture needle such that its end protrudes beyond the ground tip of the puncture needle.

摘要： The present invention relates to a tracheal ventilation apparatus (1), in particular a tracheostomy cannula or an endotracheal tube, having a cannula tube (2), which has a proximal tube portion (3) with a proximal opening (3a) and a distal tube portion (4) with a distal opening (4a). In order to provide an easy-to-handle tracheal ventilation apparatus that can easily be inserted and that impedes a swallowing process as little as possible, in which tracheal ventilation apparatus the risk of injuring the tracheal wall is reduced, it is proposed, according to the invention, that the proximal tube portion (3) and the distal tube portion (3) are connected to one another by way of an axially air-permeable joint (7) that facilitates at least restricted mobility and, in particular, pivotability of the axis of the distal tube portion (4) with respect to the axis of the proximal tube portion (3).

摘要： The present invention relates to a pressure equalization balloon, wherein the volume of the pressure equalization balloon is connected to a further volume, the pressure of which is intended to remain as constant as possible even in the event of a forced volume change. Therefore, in order to keep the cuff pressure in the pressure range that is generally considered appropriate and optimal of between roughly 20 mbar and 30 mbar, the equalization balloon is produced according to the invention from a thermoplastic polymer (TPE) and is overstretched past the maximum intended control volume before first use and is then relaxed to the range of the control volume. Therefore the modulus of elasticity of the TPE is changed in such a manner that the pressure prevailing in the equalization balloon remains constant at least within a predetermined control volume range of the equalization balloon, in that the volume of the equalization balloon increases when the pressure rises above a target control value and decreases when the pressure falls below the target control value.

摘要： The present invention relates to a tracheal ventilation apparatus, in particular a tracheostomy cannula or an endotracheal tube, having a cannula tube, which from a point of view from a gas supply, has a proximal tube portion with a proximal opening and a distal tube portion with a distal opening. In order to provide an easy-to-handle tracheal ventilation apparatus that can easily be inserted and that impedes a swallowing process as little as possible, the proximal tube portion and the distal tube portion are connected to one another by way of an axially air-permeable joint that facilitates at least restricted mobility and, in particular, pivotability of a longitudinal axis of the distal tube portion with respect to a longitudinal axis of the proximal tube portion.

摘要： A speaking valve for fitment on to a tracheostomy cannula includes a valve unit and an attachment unit. The attachment unit has a tubular housing having a first and a second end and a longitudinal axis extending from the first to the second end. The first end of the attachment unit can be connected to a connector on the tracheostomy cannula and the valve unit is arranged at the second end of the attachment unit. The valve unit and the attachment unit are connected together movably. The valve unit is designed that in a first position it closes the housing of the attachment unit air-tightly with respect to a flow direction, and in at least one second position it permits a flow of air into the housing and out of the housing.
