Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical device technology and relates to an infusion monitoring device for intravenous infusion. Background Technology
[0002] Existing infusion monitoring devices have the following shortcomings:
[0003] (1) Insufficient product functionality in the industry:
[0004] 1) Infusion monitoring devices need to address the safety and standardization issues of the infusion process, and three indicators are particularly critical:
[0005] 2) Monitoring and reminding patients of excessively fast or slow infusion rates during the infusion process to prevent excessively fast infusion from increasing the burden on the patient's heart or causing other abnormalities, and excessively slow infusion from resulting in poor drug efficacy;
[0006] 3) After the infusion is completed, turn off the infusion set in time to prevent backflow of blood, alleviate the patient's anxiety and reduce the disruption to the orderly work of medical staff caused by repeated ringing of the bell;
[0007] 4) Medical staff can be informed of abnormal infusion information in a timely manner so as to respond and reduce infusion safety issues and medical disputes.
[0008] (2) Industry technical deficiencies:
[0009] 1) Currently, there are two types of infusion monitoring devices on the market based on drip rate monitoring technology: ① Drip rate detection: Infrared emitters and receivers are used on both sides of the drip chamber to detect the drip rate. A common problem with this type of product is that drip rate detection, fluid shortage detection, fluid shortage lockout, and abnormal reporting to the nurse cannot be integrated into a single product, resulting in a missing core function. Furthermore, the single infrared emitter and receiver method used in most products is prone to inaccuracy due to infusion tubing tilt, failing to provide complete safety monitoring of the infusion process. ② Roughly calculating the drip rate by sensing changes in the weight of the infusion bag using a weighing sensor. This method suffers from inaccuracies due to the inherent limitations of weighing sensors, the potential for weight deviations due to patient movement of the infusion tubing, and the inability of the weighing-based infusion monitor to lock out the drip after infusion completion.
[0010] 2) Currently, there are two types of infusion monitoring devices on the market that use two conductive electrode plates to detect the change in capacitance of the infusion tube after infusion is completed: ① Using infrared detection to detect the lack of fluid in the infusion tube. This method may lead to misjudgment due to differences in the material of the infusion tube.
[0011] (3) Inadequate operation: (The following applies to non-weighing infusion monitoring instruments)
[0012] There are two types of installation methods for infusion monitoring devices in the industry:
[0013] 1) The simplified model with only low fluid alarm requires you to hold one end of the elastic clamping mechanism and place the infusion tube completely inside the slot of the monitor.
[0014] 2) Infusion monitors with drip rate monitoring are generally difficult to install and disassemble, requiring squeezing and pulling of the infusion tubing, making operation difficult;
[0015] 3) Poor compatibility: There are many types of infusion tubing and drip chamber diameters, as well as various drip heights, and conventional monitoring instruments can only be compatible with a very limited range of specifications;
[0016] 4) The infusion monitor requires pressing the start switch to start. If medical staff operate it, it will reduce their work efficiency. If the patient operates it, it will be inconvenient to operate.
[0017] (4) The alarm method is flawed:
[0018] 1) Abnormal information (drip rate, low fluid level, alarm sound) from weighing infusion monitors is generally not shared with patients. Therefore, patients cannot know the current status. If an abnormality occurs, patients cannot know the abnormal status and can only wait for medical staff to handle it, which increases the workload of medical staff.
[0019] 2) Simple monitoring devices with only low fluid alarms will not alarm for abnormal drip rates. When the infusion is completed and low fluid levels occur, the monitoring device will keep alarming, which is a disturbance to some patients who are inconvenient and to patients around them. At the same time, it is difficult to hear the alarm sound from the nurses' station in the inpatient department.
[0020] 3) Some monitoring devices on the market have obstructed observation windows for dripping fluid, which is not conducive to medical staff checking the infusion status;
[0021] 4) Monitoring devices on the market do not have self-sterilization technology and rely more on medical staff to wipe them, which increases the workload of medical staff.
[0022] Therefore, an infusion monitoring device for intravenous infusion was designed to overcome the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0053] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings: Figure 1-4 As shown, an infusion monitoring device for intravenous infusion includes an infusion monitoring body, which is fitted onto the infusion drip chamber 1 and the upper infusion tube 2. The monitoring body consists of a housing 3 and a control board 4, a locking assembly 5, a clamping assembly 6, and a battery 7 disposed within the housing 3.

Limiting corners 15 are opened on both sides of the semi-circular clamping plates 8 facing the guide ports 11. The limiting corners 15 are locked into the limiting grooves opened on the outer shell 3 for fixation. When the upper infusion tube 2 passes through the guide port 11 and is inserted into the inside, the clamping plates open and spring back to the clamping state by the spring 14.
[0055] The drip chamber cover 10 consists of a cover body 16 and an upper infusion tube cover 17. The upper infusion tube cover 17 is located above the cover body 16 and close to the upper infusion tube clamp 9. Both are circular and have a notch 18. The direction of the notch 18 is consistent with the opening of the upper infusion tube clamp 9. A figure-eight shaped guide sleeve 19 is also provided at the notch 18. The connecting shaft 12 is fixed on the upper infusion tube cover 17. A protruding limiting strip 20 is mounted on the cover body 16. A limiting hole 21 is provided on the control plate 4. The control plate is mounted on the cover body 16 by inserting it into the limiting strip 20 through the limiting hole 21. Both the upper infusion tube clamp 9 and the cover body 16 are equipped with detection devices.
[0056] like Figure 5-8 As shown, the detection device consists of a liquid shortage detector 22 installed in the upper infusion tube clamp 9 and a drip rate monitor 23 installed in the drip chamber cover 10. The liquid shortage detector 22 is an electrode plate installed on two semi-circular clamps 8. The electrode plate is made of copper substrate. Liquid shortage detection is achieved by detecting the capacitance difference between the two electrode plates. The drip rate monitor 23 consists of at least one infrared emitting tube 24 and multiple infrared receiving tubes 25. Whether liquid is dripping is determined by the passage of the dripping liquid between the infrared emitting tube 24 and the infrared receiving tubes 25.
[0057] The upper infusion tube clamp 9 has a battery mounting area 26 on one side of the control board 4 and a locking component mounting area 27 on the other side.

[0059] The switch consists of two types: a non-contact switch 38 and a touch switch 39. The touch switch 39 is mounted on the outer casing 3 and connected to the control board 4 via a connecting rod 40. The non-contact switch 38 is a microswitch installed in a through hole on the bottom of the upper infusion tube cover 17 or the side wall of the drip chamber cover 10. When the drip chamber cover 10 or the upper infusion tube cover 17 covers the drip chamber and the upper infusion tube, touching the microswitch enables non-contact opening. The outer casing 3 consists of a front casing 41 and a back casing 42. The front casing 41 consists of a left front casing 43 and a right front casing 44, which are respectively mounted on the battery mounting area 26 on one side of the upper infusion tube clamp 9 and the locking component mounting area 27 on the other side.

The alarm sound-transmitting hole 45 is connected to the output system 33 and provides an alarm prompt in case of sudden abnormality. The magnetic charging hole 46 is connected to the battery 7.
[0061] The structural and design features of this utility model are as follows:
[0062] This utility model consists of a shell, control board, locking components, clamping components, battery, etc. Its modular design facilitates installation and use, and the design of the locking and clamping components can effectively ensure stability and safety during use.
[0063] This invention can effectively overcome the following problems:
[0064] 1) The monitoring functions during the infusion process are incomplete and have low accuracy;
[0065] 2) The infusion monitoring device has poor compatibility with infusion tubing;
[0066] 3) The installation and removal of the infusion monitoring device is too complicated;
[0067] 4) When there is an infusion abnormality, the patient cannot obtain the abnormal state, resulting in no one to handle the infusion abnormality, or requiring special medical and nursing intervention, which increases the workload of medical and nursing staff.
[0068] 5) The installation of the infusion monitoring device makes it difficult for medical staff and accompanying patients to know the status of the infusion;
[0069] 6) The problem of inconvenient sterilization of infusion monitoring devices.
[0070] The working process of this utility model is as follows:
[0071] 1) Installation method
[0072] Hold the upper end of the IV drip chamber tubing with one hand and the monitor with the other. Apply slight force to guide the IV tubing into the fluid shortage clamp, and then pull down the monitor so that the drip chamber cover inside the monitor fits against the upper end of the IV drip chamber. At this time, the indicator light will flash. Gently release both hands. Now you can monitor any abnormalities in the IV infusion process, including drip rate, stoppage, and fluid shortage. The tubing will automatically lock after the IV infusion is completed.
[0073] (ii) Disassembly method
[0074] Press the unlock switch on the monitor or control it via mobile phone to unlock the monitor. Hold the lower end of the infusion set drip chamber with one hand and the monitor with the other hand. Pull the monitor upwards to expose the drip chamber completely. Then, gently pull the monitor to detach the fluid shortage clamp from the infusion tubing.
[0075] (iii) The working principle is:
[0076] Infusion set drip chambers generally come in two structures: one with a rigid plastic cap on the top surface, and the other with a flexible overall structure.
[0077] The diameter range of the upper part of the drip chamber of mainstream brand infusion sets is 15.5mm~22mm.
[0078] Size compatibility: The blind hole diameter of the drip chamber at the bottom of the infusion monitor of this utility model is 22.5mm, which makes the monitor compatible with infusion sets of various sizes; the blind hole is short and open, which makes it easy to observe the liquid droplets in the drip chamber with the naked eye.
[0079] Seamless power-on: The blind hole end face of the monitor has a bevel design, on which is a micro switch for monitor activation. When the infusion set is a soft plastic drip pot with a rounded end face, the gravity of the monitor allows the bevel of the monitor to fit tightly against the drip pot, triggering the micro switch and achieving seamless power-on. When the infusion set is a hard plastic cap drip pot with a horizontal end face, the horizontal end face triggers the micro switch, achieving seamless power-on.
[0080] The monitor's fluid shortage detection works by detecting the capacitance difference between two electrodes. The electrodes are made of copper and are fixed to clamps. The clamps are connected together by a steel shaft to form an assembly. Each electrode clamp has a torsion spring on one side, and the other side of the torsion spring presses against the monitor's bottom shell, creating an elastic closing force. The clamps and bottom shell have a limit design. When the clamps are closed by the torsion spring force, their front ends are designed with a guide structure to facilitate the insertion of the infusion tube. Once the infusion tube is inserted, the clamps form a wrapping force that conforms to the infusion tube. This structure is compatible with all conventional disposable infusion tubes, effectively detecting capacitance while preventing the infusion tube from easily detaching.
[0081] Infusion set limit: The monitor has a limit mechanism at the top to prevent the infusion tube from detaching from the clamp due to external force, thus preventing the low fluid detection from failing. When locked, it prevents the infusion set from shifting due to the pressure of the locking tongue, which could lead to locking failure.
[0082] Drip rate monitoring: The drip rate detection of the monitor uses one transmitting tube and four receiving tubes to achieve a wider range of drip rate detection. Its effectiveness lies in the fact that when the infusion set is tilted within 20 degrees, the droplet falling range can be sensed by the receiving light, thus achieving accurate detection.
[0083] Operation Instructions: This utility model features a light assembly that allows the indicator light to stay on when the monitor is in operation, and another indicator light to flash as a warning when there is an abnormality in the infusion.
[0084] Drip rate observation indicator: The flashing of the light component is synchronized with the drip rate, making it easy for medical staff and caregivers to check the drip rate status and to intuitively detect abnormalities.
[0085] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
