Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to an indwelling needle used for transcranial Doppler ultrasound imaging. Background Art

[0002] With the accelerated pace of life and changes in lifestyle, the incidence of cerebrovascular diseases has been increasing year by year, and there is a tendency for younger people to suffer from them. In order to avoid the impact of cerebrovascular diseases on health, how can we achieve early diagnosis and early treatment? Transcranial Doppler ultrasound is one of the indispensable and important detection methods.

[0003] Transcranial Doppler ultrasound is an examination method that uses the ultrasonic Doppler effect to detect the hemodynamics and blood flow physiological parameters of the main intracranial arteries, thereby assisting in diagnosing whether the intracranial arteries are stenotic, occluded or spasmodic, as well as the location and extent of the lesions. It brings good news to patients with unexplained stroke, migraine and those who need cerebrovascular monitoring.

[0004] During the special transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD) examination - the bubble test, dual-channel multi-depth TCD technology is used, the head frame is fixed, the bilateral middle cerebral arteries are detected (the vertebral arteries can be detected through the occipital window or paraoccipital window for patients with poor temporal window ultrasound), the right cubital vein is punctured, and while breathing calmly and performing the standard Valsalva maneuver, activated saline is quickly injected and the embolic signals are monitored. Finally, the embolic signals are quantified and graded and a report is issued. Its purpose is to check whether there is a right-to-left shunt in the heart, to help diagnose conditions such as patent foramen ovale, and can serve as a basis for screening and diagnosis of the causes of unexplained migraine and stroke.

[0005] In the conventional push injection activation of saline, a catheter is usually implanted in the human body, a three-way infusion connector is installed on the catheter, and then syringes are connected to the two ends of the three-way infusion connector respectively. The syringe at one end is filled with saline, and the syringe at the other end is filled with air. The syringe at the end filled with saline is first connected to the catheter, and the blood in the catheter is withdrawn and mixed with the saline in the syringe. Then, one end of the catheter is closed and the syringes at both ends are connected. The withdrawn blood is mixed with the saline and air by pushing the syringes at both ends against each other to prepare a bubble developer. The bubble developer is then pushed into the human body, and the image is observed by an instrument to achieve the test.

[0006] The valve of the three-way infusion connector used in the existing test is a rotary type, and the on and off of different ends are controlled by rotating the valve. This three-way valve only relies on friction to limit the position of the valve after rotation, which may easily lead to the valve not being tightly closed and causing cross-flow. In addition, it is easy to fail to rotate to the accurate closing position through rotation control, resulting in the valve not being tightly closed. The connection between the needle body and the three-way infusion connector also increases the steps of the test.

[0007] To this end, we propose an indwelling needle for transcranial Doppler ultrasound imaging. Summary of the invention

Compared with the existing rotary three-way infusion connector, the position limit is achieved by controlling the valve unit, and the perception is clearer, and the valve closure is more stable, and cross-flow will not occur;

[0040] (2) By providing the limiting groove and the limiting protrusion in cooperation with each other in the present invention, each limiting groove and the limiting protrusion cooperate with each other to correspond to a closed state, and the control valve unit can play a sealing role while playing a limiting role;

[0041] (3) The hollow portion of the shell of the present invention is a cylindrical hollow portion, and the outer wall of the shell is a square cylindrical outer wall. One end of the reaction force horizontal plate can be connected to the outer wall of the shell, thereby preventing the valve body from rotating circumferentially, ensuring that the liquid guide section can block the second interface, and avoiding the deflection of the liquid guide section, resulting in the hollow portion not being tightly closed and cross-flow; setting the surface of the liquid guide section to an inner concave arc surface can make the liquid flow smoother;

The present invention only requires one hand, which further facilitates the preparation operation of the bubble developer.

[0044] (6) The fourth limiting groove and the limiting protrusion of the present invention are engaged, and the two ends of the second liquid transfer hole are respectively connected to the first interface and the third interface, so that the bubble developer can be transferred between the first syringe and the second mixing chamber unit. The second mixing chamber unit can participate in the preparation of the bubble developer and can also be used to store the bubble developer. The user can use the first syringe to work together with the first mixing chamber unit to prepare the bubble developer, and then store the first portion of the bubble developer in the first syringe, the second portion of the bubble developer in the first mixing chamber unit, and then store the third portion of the bubble developer in the second mixing chamber unit for standby use.

The second mixing chamber unit 7 is used to cooperate with the first syringe to prepare and store the bubble developer.

[0080] Preferably, in order to control the connection and disconnection between the second mixing chamber unit 7 and the first syringe, the control valve unit 3 further includes a second liquid transfer hole 36, which is arranged on the valve body 31 and is used to connect the first interface 22 and the third interface 27, so that the bubble developer can flow between the first interface 22 and the third interface 27. When in use, the user can use the first syringe to work with the first mixing chamber unit 6 to prepare the bubble developer, store the first portion of the bubble developer in the first syringe, store the second portion of the bubble developer in the first mixing chamber unit 6, and store the third portion of the bubble developer in the second mixing chamber unit 7 for standby use, so that the bubble developer for three uses can be prepared at one time, which greatly saves the preparation time.

[0081] Preferably, in order to locate the position of the second liquid transfer hole 36 in the valve body 31, the control valve unit 3 further includes a fourth limiting groove 37, which is arranged on the valve body 31, and the shape of the fourth limiting groove 37 is the same as the first limiting groove 33. The fourth limiting groove 37 is engaged with the limiting protrusion 24, and the two ends of the second liquid transfer hole 36 are respectively connected to the first interface 22 and the third interface 27. When in use, the bubble developer can be transferred between the first syringe and the second mixing chamber unit 7. The second mixing chamber unit 7 can participate in the preparation of the bubble developer and can also be used to store the bubble developer.

[0082] This embodiment uses the first mixing chamber unit 6 to replace the second syringe. The user only needs to use one hand to hold the first syringe and push the piston of the first syringe to prepare the bubble developer. Different from the embodiment 1 or 2 in which the user holds the first syringe with one hand and the second syringe with the other hand, and the two syringes push each other to mix the withdrawn blood with saline and air, the preparation of the bubble developer requires both hands. This embodiment only requires one hand, which further facilitates the preparation operation of the bubble developer; the fourth limiting groove 37 and the limiting protrusion 24 are engaged, and the two ends of the second liquid transfer hole 36 are respectively connected to the first interface 22 and the third interface 27, and the bubble developer can be transferred between the first syringe and the second mixing chamber unit 7. The second mixing chamber unit 7 can participate in the preparation of the bubble developer and can also be used to store the bubble developer. The user can use the first syringe, in conjunction with the first mixing chamber unit 6, to prepare the bubble developer, and then store the first portion of the bubble developer in the first syringe, the second portion of the bubble developer in the first mixing chamber unit 6, and the third portion of the bubble developer in the second mixing chamber unit 7 for standby use, thereby preparing bubble developer for three uses at one time, greatly saving preparation time.
