Abstract

The Sleeve-Type Endotracheal Tube (STET) is an innovative airway management device designed to address the limitations associated with traditional double-lumen tubes (DLTs) and bronchial blockers (BBs). Utilizing a modular structure comprising an outer sheath tube, inner sheath tube, and blocking tube, the STET offers increased flexibility in one-lung ventilation (OLV) and airway clearance, thereby reducing airway trauma and improving ventilation efficiency. Its dual-cuff system ensures stable positioning, while its versatile design accommodates diverse patient populations, including pediatric patients and those with difficult airway anatomy. This review explores the structural characteristics, manufacturing processes, clinical advantages, potential limitations, and practical applications of the STET. After multiple rounds of structural optimization, the STET design has successfully advanced into pilot production. Preliminary validation results from small-scale manufacturing and functional testing demonstrate promising structural stability, operational flexibility, and safety performance. The STET represents a significant advancement in airway management, holding substantial potential to improve patient outcomes and transform clinical practice in thoracic surgery and critical care anesthesiology.

新近获得专利的套管式气管插管:改进单肺通气的创新设计及临床前景。
套筒式气管插管(STET)是一种创新的气道管理设备,旨在解决传统双腔管(dlt)和支气管阻滞剂(BBs)的局限性。STET采用由外鞘管、内鞘管和阻塞管组成的模块化结构,增加了单肺通气(OLV)和气道清除的灵活性,从而减少气道创伤,提高通气效率。它的双袖带系统确保了稳定的定位,同时它的多功能设计适应了不同的患者群体,包括儿科患者和气道解剖困难的患者。本文综述了STET的结构特点、制造工艺、临床优势、潜在局限性和实际应用。经过多轮结构优化,STET设计已成功进入中试生产阶段。小规模生产和功能测试的初步验证结果表明,该系统具有良好的结构稳定性、操作灵活性和安全性能。STET代表了气道管理的重大进步,在改善患者预后和改变胸外科和重症监护麻醉学的临床实践方面具有巨大的潜力。
