Patent ID: 11207482

Abstract:
A device (1) for the tracheal intubation of and the administration of ventilation to a patient for rapid volume-compensating sealing of the trachea, wherein the sealing surfaces of a preferably fully and residually formed balloon-like film body (4) abut the wall of the trachea with a sealing pressure of the balloon (4) which is as constant as possible and follow the thoracic pressure acting on the balloon with the least possible time latency with regard to corresponding fluctuations of the balloon inflation pressure, and the trachea is kept sealed under such dynamic fluctuations or respiration synchronously alternating fluctuations of the balloon inflation pressure. This is enabled by a defined large lumen (7, 5) supply of the balloon inflation medium, the supplying lumen being measured in such a way that a sealing pressure-maintaining extracorporeal volume compensation that works in a time synchronous manner can be achieved in the sealing balloon element.
