[0002] Drug-soaked drainage technology plays a vital role in the treatment of sinus tracts and fistulas, especially in complex cases that require continuous drug delivery and effective drainage. This technology achieves direct release of drugs to the target location by placing drug-soaked threads or belts into the lesion area, while using the physical structure of the drug thread itself to promote the drainage of fluid. This method is particularly effective for managing difficult-to-heal wounds such as sinus tracts and fistulas, because it not only clears wound fluid and reduces the chance of infection, but also acts directly on the lesion by continuously releasing antibiotics or other therapeutic drugs. The application of this technology has greatly improved the treatment effect and healing speed of such complex wounds, and is an important supplement to traditional drainage and drug dressing methods.

[0003] However, there are currently two main problems with medicated suture drainage: first, the expansion degree of the suture is uncontrollable and cannot be adjusted according to the patient's specific situation; second, during the negative pressure drainage treatment of sinus tracts, the elongated foam material is easily broken in the sinus tract due to insufficient tensile strength when it is removed, and the sponge debris is retained in the sinus tract and is difficult to remove, increasing the difficulty of treatment and the patient's pain.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The following will be combined with the drawings in the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model. It should be noted that the embodiments in the utility model and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0033] In order to solve the problem of fixing the drug line in the sinus tract, the utility model is made of PHEMA (polyhydroxyethyl methacrylate) material with self-expansion properties. PHEMA (polyhydroxyethyl methacrylate) is a hydrogel material widely used in biomedicine and other fields. One of its most striking properties is its self-expansion ability, which makes PHEMA particularly suitable for application scenarios that require volume regulation. When exposed to moisture or physiological environments, PHEMA can absorb water and swell, thereby changing its volume. This expansion property makes PHEMA an ideal material for making implantable medical devices, drug delivery systems, and as a tissue engineering scaffold. The expansion process is reversible, and PHEMA can adjust its size according to changes in external conditions, providing extremely high adaptability and flexibility.

[0034] The following effects are achieved through structural optimization: automatic release of drug administration, smooth drainage of fluid in the sinus tract, and readjustment and assembly of the negative pressure drainage dressing system to avoid dressing residues remaining in the sinus tract. Example 1

[0035] This embodiment provides a structure of a self-expanding drug line, such as Figure 1 As shown, the main body of the self-expanding drug thread is a solid drug thread 10, and a plurality of hollow spherical notches, namely drug storage spherical grooves 11, are formed on the side surface of the solid drug thread 10, and drugs are stored in the drug storage spherical grooves 11. At the same time, a drainage groove 12 is formed on the side surface of the solid drug thread 10, and the direction of the drainage groove 12 extends along the longitudinal direction of the solid drug thread 10 and passes through the upper and lower surfaces of the solid drug thread 10.

[0036] When the solid drug line 10 expands, the opening of the drug storage ball groove 11 opens further, and the drug inside is gradually released. In this structure, the shape of the ball makes the opening smaller. After the inside is compacted and filled with drugs, the drugs will be properly stored in the drug storage ball groove 11 before use. Of course, in order to ensure that the drugs are retained in the drug storage balloon 11 during transportation and long-term storage, as one of the options, a covering film can be fixed on the surface of the drug storage ball groove 11. As the drug line expands, the covering film gradually cracks or detaches from the surface of the drug line, and the internal drugs are released at this time. Example 2

[0037] This embodiment provides another structure of a self-expanding medicine thread, which is more friendly to negative pressure drainage. In Embodiment 1, the drainage groove 12 has a small volume, and the drainage effect may be insufficient.

[0038] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the main body of the medicine thread is a tubular medicine thread 100, which is a hollow cylindrical structure; on the side surface of the tubular medicine thread 100, especially near the bottom (placed at the bottom of the sinus when in use), there are several drainage holes 110, and the drainage holes 110 are circular through holes for draining the drainage fluid between the sinus and the tubular medicine thread 100 into the tube.

[0039] The inner surface of the tubular drug string 100 is inwardly recessed to form a drug storage slot 120, the opening of which is located on the inner surface of the tubular drug string 100. The drug storage slot 120 extends along the longitudinal direction of the tubular drug string 100, and drugs are pre-stored in the drug storage slot 120. Like the drug storage ball slot 11, when the tubular drug string 100 is expanded, the opening of the drug storage slot 120 is further opened, such as Figure 3 As shown, at this time, the drug flows out from the drug storage strip groove 120, and the outflowing drug flows into the sinus along the tubular drug line 100 and the drainage hole 110. Of course, as another option, the drug storage strip groove 120 can also be formed by being recessed inward from the outer surface of the tubular drug line 100, that is, the opening of the drug storage strip groove 120 is located on the outer surface of the tubular drug line 100. Example 3

[0040] As an optimized structure of Example 2, considering the time period of drug release, such as Figure 4 As shown, the depth of the drug storage slot 120 and the width of the opening are adjustable, thereby meeting the long-term release requirements of the drug. In this embodiment, the first drug storage slot 121 and the second drug storage slot 122 are arranged on the inner side of the tubular drug line 100 at intervals, and the opening of the first drug storage slot 121 is larger than the opening of the second drug storage slot. Therefore, after the tubular drug line 100 expands, the drug in the first drug storage slot 121 will be released preferentially and in large doses, and the drug in the second drug storage slot 122 will be slowly released over time. Example 4

[0041] On the basis of Example 2, this example provides a solution for applying a tubular medicine thread 100 to negative pressure drainage. The outer surface of the tubular medicine thread 100 has at least one fixing ring 130 protruding outward, and the fixing ring 130 serves as an auxiliary fixation for fixing the tubular medicine thread 100 in the sinus tract.

[0042] like Figure 5 , Figure 6As shown, one end of the tubular medicine thread 100 is inserted into the dressing groove 210 at the center of the dressing 200, and the depth of the dressing groove 210 is half the height of the dressing 200; the dressing groove 210 is circular in shape, and its size is equivalent to the outer diameter of the tubular medicine thread 100 after expansion. The shape of the dressing is a conventional rectangular shape, and the dressing 200 uses conventional negative pressure drainage dressings, such as polyvinyl alcohol sponge. Figure 7 As shown, the other side of the dressing 200 (the side where the tubular drug line 100 is not assembled) is placed with a biofilm 300, and the biofilm 300 is used to construct a negative pressure environment. After the dressing system is assembled, the tubular drug line 100 is placed in the sinus tract (its length is cut to be consistent with the depth of the sinus tract), and the dressing 200 is now tightly attached to the skin around the sinus tract, and finally the biofilm 300 is completely wrapped around the dressing 200. Of course, like the negative pressure drainage system, in this embodiment, a drainage tube is connected to the dressing 200, and the other end of the drainage tube is connected to a negative pressure source for use, which will not be repeated here. Example 5

[0043] On the basis of Example 4, a dressing cover 400 is added for convenient and quick assembly. Figure 8 , Fig. 9 As shown, the depth of the dressing cover 400 is equivalent to the sum of the thickness of the dressing 200 and the biofilm 300. The dressing cover 400 has a negative pressure connection port 410 in the center. The negative pressure connection port 410 is used for the drainage tube to pass through. Its diameter is equivalent to the outer diameter of the drainage tube (of course, a circle of silicone sealing ring can also be connected to the inner surface of the negative pressure connection port to achieve a sealing effect, which will not be repeated here). The drainage tube passes through the biofilm 300 and is fixed inside the dressing 200. The dressing cover 400 has a circle of extension sheet 420 around it. The extension sheet 420 is placed on the skin to play a role of sealing and fixing. Of course, in order to achieve its sealing and fixing effects, the lower surface of the extension sheet 420 has an adhesive sheet for sticking it on the skin and fixing it.

[0044] When in use, the biofilm 300 has a larger area than the dressing 200 and is sufficient to wrap the lower surface and the side surface of the dressing 200 . The dressing cover 400 buckles the dressing 200 and the biofilm 300 as a whole inside the dressing cover 400 .

[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the implementation mode and protection scope of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, it should be aware that all solutions obtained by equivalent substitutions and obvious changes made using the description and illustrations of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
