Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of medical devices, specifically a postoperative drug delivery device for anorectal diseases that is adaptive to the anal anatomical structure. It achieves drug contact with the wound surface and achieves a sustained release effect through physical positioning. It is particularly suitable for drug delivery and sustained release treatment of postoperative wounds such as hemorrhoids, anal fissures, anal sinusitis, anal fistulas, perianal abscesses, and anal stenosis. Background Art

[0002] Anorectal diseases are common and frequently occurring. This is especially true for common perianal conditions such as hemorrhoids, anal fissures, anal sinusitis, anal fistulas, and perianal abscesses. After surgical treatment, the surgical wound often occurs near the anal canal and dentate line. The contraction of the rectal ring keeps this area closed, preventing sufficient and prolonged drug adhesion to the wound. This significantly impacts the effectiveness of daily dressing changes and prolongs wound healing. Currently, there are two main methods for topical drug administration: applying the drug to wounds outside the anus, and administering the drug as a suppository, which is inserted into the anus for primary absorption via the rectum. Neither of these methods directly delivers the drug to the entire wound surface. Alternatively, a device similar to an anoscope is used to place a drug-soaked gauze strip on wounds near the anal canal and dentate line. However, this method mechanically dilates the wound, causing pain to the patient and potentially damaging the wound, increasing the risk of bleeding. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present invention provides a zero-mechanical-injury, self-adaptive-fixation, low-cost anorectal postoperative drug delivery device, which solves the technical bottlenecks of drug retention in wounds and the risk of secondary injury faced by anorectal postoperative drug delivery.

[0004] Technical points (attached Figure 1 ): The apparatus includes a mandrel (with Figure 1 1) and the cotton fiber body wrapped around it (attached Figure 1 2), the cotton fiber body is bullet-shaped and has a waist structure in the middle (attached Figure 1 3).

[0005] In the present invention, the core shaft (attached Figure 1 Medium 1): Diameter 2-5mm, length 15-30cm. Materials can be bamboo, wood, metal, plastic, paper, or other materials that meet medical material safety standards. The tip should be blunt (R angle ≥ 1mm) to prevent puncture of the wound and rectal mucosa. The surface should be smooth and thornless for easy extraction from the cotton fiber.

[0006] In the present invention, the cotton fiber body is in the shape of a bullet head (attached Figure 1Medium 2): 5-10cm long, 1.5-3.0cm in diameter, made of medical absorbent cotton fibers. The wrapping should not be too tight, ensuring the cotton fibers maintain a certain degree of elasticity and flexibility. This allows for slight deformation during insertion, ensuring a close fit with the wound surface, alleviating pain, and ensuring smooth removal of the mandrel.

[0007] In the present invention, the waist structure (attached Figure 1 Middle 3) is located in the middle 1 / 3 of the cotton fiber body, and the minimum waist diameter is 30%-50% of the maximum diameter at both ends of the cotton fiber body.

[0008] Preferably, the cotton fiber body can be pre-loaded with Western medicine drugs in the form of powders, liquids, gels, etc. that have the functions of stopping bleeding, relieving pain, relieving swelling and relieving pain, removing dead tissue and debridement, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, promoting tissue regeneration and healing wounds, so as to facilitate direct clinical use.

[0009] Preferably, the surface of the cotton fiber body can be covered with a silk protein membrane (membrane thickness 50 μm, drug permeable pore diameter 0.1-0.5 μm).

[0010] Preferably, a developing line (barium wire weaving, X-ray development positioning) is added to the waist area.

[0011] Beneficial effects of the present invention: Based on the anatomical characteristics of the anal ring, the present invention proposes a bionic locking cotton twist structure, which solves many problems in dressing changes after anorectal surgery, especially the technical difficulties of drug retention in the wound and the risk of secondary injury. The details are as follows: 1. Anatomically adaptive positioning: The present invention uses a waist-constricted cotton fiber body to create an interference fit with the hourglass-shaped anatomical structure at the junction of the anus, and utilizes the contraction of the anal ring and the elasticity of the cotton fiber body to achieve self-locking, so that the cotton fiber body with attached drugs can remain on the wound surface for a long time, thus solving the problem of drug retention in the wound surface.

[0012] 2. Avoid secondary damage: The end of the core shaft of the present invention is passivated and wrapped with cotton fiber to prevent the core shaft from piercing the rectal mucosa; the cotton fiber is soft, elastic, and has a smooth surface. When inserted, it can be deformed appropriately according to the tension of the anal sphincter and the shape of the wound, and can pass smoothly with the help of the lubricating effect of the surface drug.

[0013] 3. Sustained release and enhanced efficacy: Cotton fibers can absorb drugs up to 3 times their own weight, and the cotton fiber network provides a channel for sustained drug release, which can maintain the effective drug concentration on the wound for more than 4 hours.

[0014] 4. Safe withdrawal: The anus-retaining part of the present invention is completely made of medical absorbent cotton fibers. After insertion, it can be discharged together with the feces, and can also be dragged out at any time through the part exposed outside the anus as needed.

[0015] 5. Stop bleeding from wounds: For minor bleeding from wounds, various hemostatic drugs can be attached to large cotton swabs and inserted into the anus. This not only allows sufficient hemostatic drugs to continuously act on the wound, but also has the effect of compressing and stopping bleeding.

[0016] 6. Wound Drainage: For wounds with profuse secretions, this invention also absorbs and drains secretions. A cotton swab without medication can be inserted directly into the anus to absorb secretions through the cotton fibers, and the device should be replaced regularly. Creams and powders such as decontaminating and wound-clearing agents can also be applied to enhance efficacy.

[0017] 7. Prevention of anal stenosis: In the late recovery period of anal surgery, especially when there are many wounds on the anal canal, the present invention can be placed on the anus for a long time to act as a mold, preventing the anal canal wound from adhering for a long time and thus forming stenosis.

[0018] 8. Effective pain relief: The retention part of the present invention is completely made of medical absorbent cotton fibers. The cotton body is soft, elastic, and has a smooth surface. When it is inserted into the anus, it deforms slightly and can fit tightly with the hourglass shape inside and outside the anus and the wound surface. It has little irritation to the wound surface, can reduce the pain of the patient when administering the drug, and there is no obvious foreign body sensation during the retention period.

[0019] 9. Easy to obtain: The present invention can be mass-produced by factory machines or made by medical staff at all levels of medical institutions. The only main materials required are medical absorbent cotton and a core shaft. It is simple to make and easy to use, making it highly valuable for promotion and use.
