Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a kind of directional irrigation drainage catheter. BACKGROUND

[0002] As a common and serious threat to human health cerebral vascular disease, in recent years, its incidence rate presents the upward trend that cannot be underestimated, has become the health "killer" that influences the life quality of numerous patients, brings heavy burden to numerous families. After cerebral hemorrhage occurs, hematoma is often formed in intracranial, these hematoma, like "compression source", produces sustained compression to surrounding brain tissue, and then triggers a series of chain reactions such as nerve function damage, seriously affects the health of patient and subsequent self-care ability. For this reason, in the treatment process of cerebral hemorrhage, timely and effectively removing intracranial hematoma, reducing intracranial pressure, become the top priority to improve patient prognosis and improve their quality of life, is the key of the whole treatment link.

[0003] In current clinical practice, directional soft channel cerebral hemorrhage treatment method is outstanding among many treatment methods with the advantages of relatively small trauma and relatively simple operation, and has obtained more extensive application. This treatment method is mainly through the accurate placement of special catheter in intracranial, then gradually discharges intracranial hematoma by the drainage function of catheter, to achieve the purpose of relieving illness.

[0004] However, in the actual application of this method, there are some problems to be solved. As for the catheter commonly used, the drainage side hole is usually arranged on both sides of the catheter in design. In the process of continuous drainage, in order to achieve better effect of eliminating hematoma as far as possible, medical staff often need to inject hemolytic agent to hematoma site. However, due to the influence of intracranial pressure and gravity, the diffusion path of hemolytic agent in intracranial will be limited, and can only dissolve blood along the direction of catheter side hole, and it is difficult to penetrate evenly to each part of hematoma.

[0005] In order to change this situation and make hemolytic agent act on the whole hematoma area more fully, medical staff usually need to turn over the patient's body position. But this seemingly simple operation has many obvious disadvantages. On the one hand, the turning of patient's body position is easy to cause the deviation of catheter position. As we know, the catheter is accurately positioned when it is placed in intracranial, and it has an accurate drainage path. Once the position changes due to turning, the accuracy will be broken, the normal drainage process will be disturbed, and the drainage efficiency will be inevitably reduced, which will affect the effect of hematoma removal.

[0006] On the other hand, frequent changes in patient position and changes in catheter position undoubtedly open the "door" for pathogens such as bacteria. External pathogens are more likely to take advantage of the opportunity to invade the human body and enter the intracranial environment, which is relatively closed and fragile, significantly increasing the risk of infection, which undoubtedly adds to the patient's recovery.

[0007] Even if some catheters attempt to improve drainage by opening more side holes in the circumferential direction, new problems still follow. Due to the flow characteristics of the liquid itself from the high pressure to the low pressure, the hemolytic agent tends to flow in the direction of lower pressure during the drainage process. Even if there are circumferential side holes, it is difficult to break through this physical characteristic limitation, and it is difficult to uniformly and comprehensively deliver the hemolytic agent to all directions in the intracranial cavity, and it is difficult to achieve comprehensive blood removal of the intracranial hematoma. In this way, the overall hematoma removal effect is always difficult to achieve the ideal state, and the patient's recovery process is naturally prone to be hindered, prolonging the patient's pain cycle and treatment time.
