 note = {Most suction care patients must be prepared to perform suction in any place, at any time. Further, many suction care patients also require ventilators or oxygen and must equip their wheelchair or portable bed with all necessary equipment when moving from place to place. The total weight of them is very heavy and places a major strain on those assisting with moving the patient. Therefore, the authors wondered whether it would be possible to develop electric medical suction equipment that can be used safely and conveniently while on outings with the same suction pressure as existing suction equipment, but with a reduced size and weight (hereafter referred to as “compact suction equipment”). The authors have created the prototype using parts already on the market toward the development of a compact suction equipment. The prototype was found to have suction pressure and battery functioning equivalent to existing suction equipment while reducing the total weight by -18.3% to -29.3%. Ongoing studies following each step of the medical device development process will be necessary to confirm the safety and practicality and further reduce the size.
吸引を要する者の多くは，いつでもどこでも吸引ができるようにする必要がある．またその中には，人工呼吸器や酸素を必要としている者も多く，移動の際は多くの必要物品を車椅子や移動用ベッドなどに装備する必要があり，介助者の負担も大きい．そこで，外出先でも安全に手軽に使用でき，既存吸引器と同等の吸引圧で，より小型軽量化した医療用電動吸引器(以下，小型吸引器)が開発できないかと考えた．本研究では，小型吸引器の開発に向け，吸引圧，バッテリー，小型軽量化，携帯しやすさを中心に，市販品の既成部品を用い機器の材料や部品の検討を行い，試作品を作成した．その結果，吸引圧，バッテリー共に既存吸引器と同等の機能を持たせつつ，本体，バッテリー，バッグを含む総重量を－18.3% ～－29.3% 軽量化できた．今後，医療機器開発における各開発ステージに沿って，安全性，実用性，更なる小型化に向け継続的な検討が必要である．},
