Sputum handling cup

Abstract

A sputum handling cup is cylindrical and comprises a circular-tube-shaped cup body (1) and a round-cover-shaped cup bottom (6). The cup bottom is arranged at the lower end of the cup body in a screwed mode through a thread (10) on the side wall of the cup bottom, and the cup bottom and the cup body are sealed. A partition board (2) is arranged in the middle of the cup body and divides an inner cavity of the cup body into an upper part and a lower part (3 and 4), a hole (7) is formed in the center of the partition board, a movable door (8) capable of being opened and closed is arranged below the hole, and a button (5) controlling the movable door is arranged on the outer surface of the side wall of the cup body. Chlorine-containing disinfectant can be placed in the lower portion of the cup, sputum is spit into the upper portion of the cup, then the button is pressed to open the movable door and then close the movable door, and the sputum flows into the lower portion of the cup. The chlorine-containing disinfectant of the lower portion of the cup can not directly irritate the nose and the eyes of a patient, and sputum collection compliance of the patient is improved. When the patient does not split sputum, the sputum on the lower portion of the cup is sealed and isolated from air, and the isolation requirement in the hospital infection control department and families is met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a structure of a medical product, a sputum disposal cup. Background technique [0002] Patients with respiratory diseases need to collect sputum for observation, which is convenient for doctors to diagnose and treat the disease, especially for diseases that are transmitted through the respiratory tract, such as tuberculosis, etc., it is necessary to collect sputum for special treatment before discharge. At present, there is no special sputum cup clinically, and ordinary cups with lids can only be used instead, which has the following disadvantages: 1. Once there is sputum in the cup, when the patient spits again, it is easy to look directly at it and cause nausea, resulting in phlegm Decreased compliance with fluid collection. 2. When collecting sputum from infectious patients such as tuberculosis, it is necessary to place chlorine-containing disinfectant in advance for disposal.

Problems solved by technology

At present, there is no special sputum cup clinically, and ordinary cups with lids can only be used instead, which has the following disadvantages: 1. Once there is sputum in the cup, when the patient spits again, it is easy to look directly at it and cause nausea, resulting in phlegm Reduced compliance with fluid collection

2. When collecting sputum from infectious patients such as tuberculosis, it is necessary to place chlorine-containing disinfectant in advance for disposal. Once the sputum cup is opened, the patient is easily smoked by the pungent disinfectant, which makes the patient unwilling to spit the sputum into the cup. As a result, patients spit everywhere, causing environmental pollution and increasing the risk of disease transmission, which does not meet the requirements of nosocomial infection

3. Tuberculosis patients need to be treated at home for a long time, and the sputum still needs to be disinfected at home. There is no good treatment method yet, which does not meet the requirements of home isolation
