Intubation system
An intubation system includes a measurement apparatus that measures physiological parameter of a subject by a measuring section, an intubation apparatus that includes an imaging section placed in a vicinity of a tip end portion of an inserting section to be inserted from a mouth of the subject toward a target site, an intubation displaying section that is disposed integrally with or separately from the intubation apparatus and is connected to the imaging section and the measuring section to display an in vivo image that is taken by the imaging section along with the physiological parameter that is measured by the measuring section, and an overall storage section that stores the in vivo image and physiological parameter that are displayed on the intubation displaying section, in an associated manner.
1. An intubation system comprising:
a measurement apparatus that measures a physiological parameter of a subject by at least one or more of an irradiator or a detector;
an intubation apparatus that includes a sensor placed in a vicinity of a tip end portion of an inserting section to be inserted from a mouth of the subject toward a target site;
a display device that is disposed integrally with the intubation apparatus and is connected to the sensor and the at least one or more of the irradiator or the detector, and is configured to display an in vivo image that is taken by the sensor along with the physiological parameter that is measured by the at least one or more of the irradiator or the detector; and
a memory that is configured to store the in vivo image and the physiological parameter that are displayed by the display device, wherein:
the display device is further configured to display a composite image obtained by synthesizing the physiological parameter with the in vivo image,
the memory is further configured to store the composite image, and
the memory is further configured to start storage of the composite image obtained by synthesizing the physiological parameter with the in vivo image based on whether or not an intubation tube is inserted into a glottis.
2. The intubation system according to claim 1 further comprising:
at least one of:
a vibrator of the intubation apparatus that vibrates a grasping portion of the intubation apparatus to be grasped by an operator;
a speaker that is configured to output a warning sound in the at least one or more of the irradiator or the detector; and
a notification controller that causes at least one of the vibrator and the speaker to operate when a value of the physiological parameter that is measured by the at least one or more of the irradiator or the detector reaches a given threshold.
3. The intubation system according to claim 1 , wherein the memory is disposed in the measurement apparatus,
the measurement apparatus includes a second display device that is configured to display the physiological parameter that is measured by the at least one or more of the irradiator or the detector, and displays the in vivo image stored in the memory together with corresponding physiological parameter on the second display device.
4. The intubation system according to claim 1 , wherein the display device is further configured to display a target mark at a first position in first direction of an intubation tube and superimposed on the composite image, and display a site mark at a second position of the glottis and superimposed on the composite image.
5. The intubation system according to claim 1 , wherein a plurality of sets of intubation information relating to intubation of the subject by the intubation system are obtained by the display device based on the display of the composite image.
6. The intubation system according to claim 1 , wherein the intubation apparatus is configured to display a determination result of whether or not the intubation tube is inserted into the glottis, the determination result being based on a position of the glottis relative to a position of a target mark.
7. The intubation system according to claim 1 , wherein the in vivo image comprises a larynx image.
8. An intubation system comprising:
a measurement apparatus that measures a physiological parameter of a subject by at least one or more of an irradiator or a detector;
an intubation apparatus that includes a sensor placed in a vicinity of a tip end portion of an inserting section to be inserted from a mouth of the subject toward a target site;
a display device that is disposed integrally with from the intubation apparatus and is connected to the sensor and the at least one or more of the irradiator or the detector to display an in vivo image that is taken by the sensor along with the physiological parameter that is measured by the at least one or more of the irradiator or the detector;
a memory that is configured to store the in vivo image and the physiological parameter; and
a storage controller that controls a start timing of storing the in vivo image that is taken by the sensor and the physiological parameter that is measured by the at least one or more of the irradiator or the detector, in the memory based on at least one of the in vivo image and the physiological parameter.
9. The intubation system according to claim 8 , wherein the intubation apparatus includes:
a processor that is configured to detect a target site, from the in vivo image that is taken by the sensor, based on a feature amount of the target site that is preset; and
an intubation determining section that determines whether an intubation tube is insertable into the target site or not, based on a position of the target site which is detected by the processor, and an advancing direction of the intubation tube which is disposed so as to be advanceable and retractable along the inserting section, and,
wherein when the intubation determining section determines that the intubation tube is insertable into the target site, the storage controller causes the memory to start storing the in vivo image and the physiological parameter.
