Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of urinary catheters, and in particular to a self-decompression safety urinary catheter. Background Art

[0002] A urinary catheter is a medical consumable, usually made of silicone, latex or polyurethane, and is mainly used to drain urine from the bladder to the outside of the body. A urinary catheter is usually used when the patient is unable to urinate normally or has difficulty urinating, such as urinary retention, before and after surgery, postpartum recovery, urethra or bladder disease, long-term bedridden, coma, and urinary incontinence. In these cases, a urinary catheter can help patients empty the urine in the bladder and prevent complications such as bladder overfilling, pain, and infection caused by urine retention.

[0003] The commonly used urinary catheter in clinical practice is the double-lumen urinary catheter. Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, a double-lumen urinary catheter is usually composed of a head end tube 01, a balloon 02, a main catheter tube 03, a urine bag connecting tube 04 and a water injection tube 05, wherein the head end tube 01 is designed with a smooth tip to reduce resistance during insertion; the balloon 02 is used to fix the urinary catheter in the bladder to prevent it from detaching; the main catheter tube 03 is soft and has a certain toughness to adapt to the curvature of the urethra; the urine bag connecting tube 04 is used to connect the urine bag; and the water injection tube 05 is used to inject water into the balloon 02. The operating steps for using a double-lumen urinary catheter on a patient are as follows: apply appropriate lubricating oil or paraffin oil on the surface of the urinary catheter to reduce friction and pain during insertion; use tweezers to hold the urinary catheter and gently insert it from the urethral opening into the bladder until urine flows out; when the urinary catheter is fully inserted, inject an appropriate amount of sterile saline into the balloon 02 through the water injection tube 05 to expand the balloon 02 and fix it at the bladder neck. Although double-lumen urinary catheters are commonly used in clinical practice, they still have certain safety hazards. When the urinary catheter is inserted into place, saline is injected into the balloon 02 through the water injection tube 05 to expand it. After it is stuck at the connection between the bladder and the urethra, if the patient accidentally pulls the urinary catheter outward (usually pulling it outward for a moment with great force), the expanded balloon 02 will quickly enter the urethra or be directly pulled out of the body through the urethra under the action of the pulling force. This process will excessively squeeze the urethral mucosa and cause urethral damage or urethral tearing, causing serious harm to the patient (reference Fig.11 as shown).

[0004] Therefore, how to design a urinary catheter that can avoid or reduce urethral damage or urethral tearing when the urinary catheter is accidentally pulled is a technical problem that has not yet been solved in the prior art. Summary of the invention

There are also cases where the catheter is injured by slowly pulling it (usually more common in patients with blurred consciousness). When it is pulled slowly, the elastic connecting tube is difficult to deform, and the water in the balloon tube can be discharged from the overflow valve. After the discharge, the outer diameter of the balloon tube can be reduced to a level that does not damage the urethra, preventing the catheter from being damaged by slow external force.

[0035] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments. Example

[0036] This embodiment provides a self-decompression safety catheter, such as Figure 1-3As shown in Figure 5, it comprises: a main body tube 1, an insertion tube 6, an elastic connecting tube 5 and an airbag tube 2; wherein, a first tube cavity 11, a second tube cavity 12 and a third tube cavity 13 which are not connected to each other are formed inside the main body tube 1; a cannula tube cavity 61 is formed inside the insertion tube 6, and a guide hole 62 which is connected to the cannula tube cavity 61 is formed on the outer wall; the elastic connecting tube 5 is connected to the first tube cavity 11 and the cannula tube cavity 61; the airbag tube 2 is sleeved on the outside of the elastic connecting tube 5, and is connected between the main body tube 1 and the insertion tube 6, and is connected to the second cavity tube 12 and the third cavity tube 13; a first connecting tube 14, a second connecting tube 15 and a third connecting tube 16 are formed at the tail end of the main body tube 1, the first connecting tube 14 is connected to the first tube cavity 11 and is used to connect a urine bag, the second connecting tube 15 is connected to the second tube cavity 12 and a one-way valve 3 is arranged at the tail end, and the third connecting tube 16 is connected to the third tube cavity 13 and a relief valve 4 is arranged at the tail end.

[0037] In the initial state, the outer wall of the balloon tube 2 is substantially flush with the outer walls of the main tube 1 and the insertion tube 6. When the self-decompression safety catheter of this embodiment is used on a patient, first apply appropriate lubricating oil or paraffin oil on the surface of the catheter to reduce friction and pain during insertion, then clamp the catheter with tweezers and gently insert it into the bladder from the urethral opening until urine flows out; after insertion, use a syringe to inject water into the balloon tube 2 through the second connecting tube 15 and the second tube cavity 12, so that the balloon tube 2 expands and is fixed at the bladder neck; during use, if the main tube 1 is pulled by mistake, the elastic connecting tube 5 is rapidly stretched, and the maximum outer diameter of the balloon tube 2 after water injection is rapidly reduced, and the water inside the balloon tube 2 is rapidly overflowed through the third tube cavity 13, the third connecting tube 16 and the overflow valve 4, so that the balloon tube 2 returns to the initial state.

[0038] The self-depressurizing safety urinary catheter of this embodiment can respond quickly when the main tube 1 is pulled by mistake, so that the maximum outer diameter of the air-bag tube 2 can be quickly reduced, and the water in the air-bag tube 2 can be discharged in time. After the outer diameter of the air-bag tube 2 is quickly reduced, the squeezing of the urethral mucosa by the air-bag tube 2 can be reduced, avoiding the occurrence of serious complications such as urethral injury or tearing due to accidental pulling of the catheter, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the use of the catheter.

[0039] like Figure 4-5 As shown, the part of the first lumen 11 that bulges outward forms the first connecting portion 17, and the part of the insertion tube lumen 61 that bulges outward forms the second connecting portion 63. The two ends of the elastic connecting tube 5 are respectively sleeved and fixedly connected to the first connecting portion 17 and the second connecting portion 63.

[0040] The end of the main body tube 1 is formed with a first annular step 18, the end of the insertion tube 6 is formed with a second annular step 64, and the two ends of the airbag tube 2 are respectively sleeved and fixedly connected to the first annular step 18 and the second annular step 64. When the airbag tube 2 is fixed to the main body tube 1 and the insertion tube 6, the outer wall of the connection forms a flat horizontal surface, ensuring safety, comfort and smoothness during use, and avoiding discomfort or potential risks caused by uneven surfaces.

[0041] The two ends of the elastic connecting tube 5 are respectively connected to the first connecting portion 17 and the second connecting portion 63 by bonding; the two ends of the airbag tube 2 are respectively connected to the first annular step 18 and the second annular step 64 by bonding. The bonding connection has good sealing performance, can avoid liquid leakage, and improves safety during use.

[0042] like Figure 5 As shown, a spiral support frame 51 is arranged inside the elastic connecting tube 5, and the spiral support frame 51 cannot be retracted after being stretched. This characteristic of the spiral support frame 51 enables the spiral support frame 51 to always maintain a stretched state after being stretched by an external force, thereby maintaining the outer diameter of the airbag tube 2 within a smaller range, avoiding accidental injuries to the human body caused by sudden rebound of the elastic connecting tube 5, and improving the safety of use.

[0043] like Figure 6 As shown, the overflow valve 4 includes: an overflow valve cover 41, an overflow seal 44 and an overflow elastic member 45; wherein the overflow valve cover 41 has a cylindrical inner cavity 42, which is installed on the third connecting pipe 16, and an overflow hole 43 is opened on the side wall near the third connecting pipe 16; the overflow seal 44 is installed inside the cylindrical inner cavity 42, and the top end can be inserted into the water outlet of the third connecting pipe 16, and can press and seal the water outlet; the overflow elastic member 45 is installed inside the cylindrical inner cavity 42, one end abuts against the bottom wall of the cylindrical inner cavity 42, and the other end abuts against the bottom of the overflow seal 44; when the water pressure in the third connecting pipe 16 is lower than the set value, the overflow seal 44 presses and seals the water outlet under the pressure of the overflow elastic member 45; when the water pressure in the third connecting pipe 16 is higher than the set value, the water flow flushes the overflow seal 44 and overflows through the overflow hole 43.

[0044] By scientifically and reasonably selecting and optimizing the elastic material of the balloon tube 2, and reasonably matching it with the overflow pressure of the overflow valve 4, the volume of the balloon tube 2 after expansion in the bladder can be accurately controlled; when the expansion degree of the balloon tube 2 exceeds the preset range, the water flow will automatically be discharged outward through the overflow valve 4, thereby ensuring that the expansion size of the balloon tube in the bladder is within a reasonable range. There are also cases where the urinary catheter is injured by slowly pulling (usually more common in patients with blurred consciousness). When slowly pulling, the elastic connecting tube is difficult to deform, and the water in the balloon tube 2 can be discharged from the overflow valve 4. After the discharge, the outer diameter of the balloon tube 2 can be reduced to not damage the urethra, preventing the urinary catheter from causing damage to the patient's urethra due to slow external force pulling.

[0045] like Figure 7-8 As shown, the one-way valve 3 includes: a one-way valve tube 31, a first inner flange 34, a one-way valve core 7 and a valve core cap 8; wherein the one-way valve tube 31 is hollow and has two openings, one end is a liquid inlet end 32, and the other end is a liquid outlet end 33; the first inner flange 34 is formed on the inner wall of the one-way valve tube 31, and the inner cavity of the one-way valve tube 31 is divided into a first inner cavity 35 and a second inner cavity 36; a connecting hole 37 is formed in the middle of the first inner flange 34, connecting the first inner cavity 35 and the second inner cavity 36; the one-way valve core 7 includes a valve core rod 71 and a first outer flange 72 formed on the outer wall of the valve core rod 71, and a part of the valve core rod 71 and the first outer flange 72 are installed in the second inner cavity through an elastic member 73 36; the other part of the valve core rod 71 extends into the first inner cavity 35 through the connecting hole 37; under the elastic force of the elastic member 73, the first outer flange 72 abuts against the first inner flange 34 to achieve sealing contact; a step blocking portion 38 is formed at the opening of the second inner cavity 36, one end of the elastic member 73 abuts against the step blocking portion 38, and the other end abuts against the first outer flange 72; the valve core cap 8 is sleeved and installed on the end of the valve core rod 71 located in the first inner cavity 35; the end of the valve core cap 8 facing the connecting hole 37 has a second outer flange 81 that is in sliding and sealing contact with the inner wall of the first inner cavity 35, and the other end is provided with a liquid inlet hole 82. When injecting water into the airbag tube 2, the injection nozzle of the syringe is extended from the liquid inlet end 32 of the one-way valve tube 31 to abut against the valve core cap 8, and the valve core cap 8 is pushed inward, and the valve core cap 8 and the valve core rod 71 fixedly connected thereto jointly squeeze the elastic member 73 to retract, thereby releasing the seal of the first inner cavity 35 and the second inner cavity 36, so that the first inner cavity 35 and the second inner cavity 36 are connected, allowing water to flow through; then the syringe is operated to inject water, and the water flows through the liquid inlet hole 82, the first inner cavity 35, the second inner cavity 36, the liquid outlet end 32, and enters the second connecting tube 15, and then flows from the second connecting tube 15 to the second tube cavity 12, and finally enters the airbag tube 2, causing the airbag tube 2 to expand.

[0046] The first inner cavity 35 is cylindrical, and its inner diameter is substantially the same as or slightly larger than the outer diameter of the injection nozzle of the syringe; the end surface of one end of the valve core cap 8 having the liquid inlet hole 82 can circumferentially block the injection nozzle of the syringe, so that water from the syringe can be injected through the liquid inlet hole 82 without leaking.

[0047] like Figure 8 As shown, the valve core rod 71 is a triangular prism structure, the liquid inlet hole 82 is opened at a position of the valve core cap 8 that is not covered by the end surface of the valve core rod 71; the three corners of the valve core rod 71 are in sliding contact with the inner wall of the communication hole 37; the three corners of the valve core rod 71 are in sliding contact with the inner wall of the outer outlet 39 of the second inner cavity 36 provided with the step blocking portion 38; the end of the first outer flange 72 facing the communication hole 37 is sleeved with a sealing gasket 9. The valve core rod 71 adopts a triangular prism structure design, so that the valve core rod 71 can be firmly fixed inside the one-way valve tube 31, avoiding the occurrence of sloshing, and allowing water to flow smoothly.

[0048] The self-pressure-releasing safety catheter in this embodiment is used as follows: in the initial state, the outer wall of the balloon tube 2 is substantially flush with the outer walls of the main tube 1 and the insertion tube 6. When using the self-pressure-releasing safety catheter of this embodiment on a patient, first apply appropriate lubricating oil or paraffin oil on the surface of the catheter to reduce friction and pain during insertion, then use tweezers to clamp the catheter and gently insert it into the bladder from the urethral opening until urine flows out; when inserted into place, extend the injection nozzle of the syringe from the liquid inlet end 32 of the one-way valve tube 31 to abut against the valve core cap 8, and push the valve core cap 8 inward, the valve core cap 8 and the valve core rod 71 fixedly connected thereto jointly squeeze the elastic member 73 to retract, thereby releasing the seal on the first inner cavity 35 and the second inner cavity 36, so that the first inner cavity 35 and the second inner cavity 36 are connected, allowing water to flow through; then operate the syringe to Water is injected, and the water flows through the liquid inlet hole 82, the first inner cavity 35, the second inner cavity 36, the liquid outlet end 32, and enters the second connecting tube 15, and then flows from the second connecting tube 15 to the second tube cavity 12, and finally enters the airbag tube 2, so that the airbag tube 2 expands and is fixed at the bladder neck; during the catheterization process, if the main tube 1 is pulled by mistake, the elastic connecting tube 5 is rapidly stretched, and the maximum outer diameter of the airbag tube 2 after the water injection is rapidly reduced, and the water inside the airbag tube 2 flows to the overflow valve 4 through the third tube cavity 13 and the third connecting tube 16, and pushes the overflow seal 44 to move downward, opening the overflow hole 43, and the water overflows rapidly from the overflow hole 43, so that the airbag tube 2 returns to its initial state.

[0049] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For ordinary technicians in the relevant field, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived from them are still within the protection scope of this innovative technical solution.
