Abstract
Description
Description of the invention Title of the invention Vein finder, blood oxygen and heart rate monitor Technical background of the relevant invention The technical field of this invention is related to finding veins and measuring blood oxygen and heart rate, which is related to medical sciences. Technical problem and stating the objectives of the invention The therapeutic group uses intravenous routes to treat various diseases and needs to draw veins from patients for blood transfusions, intravenous injections, blood sampling, etc. Sometimes, they fail in the venipuncture process and have to repeat the venipuncture procedure several times. In addition to being a challenge for the nurse, this also has psychological consequences. The patient may also have complications such as infiltration, hematoma, phlebitis and thrombophlebitis, etc. and psychological and mental complications. Consider that if the patient also has hepatitis or AIDS, the possibility of harm to the medical staff and the patient is doubled by repeated venipuncture. In dialysis patients who have to spend a lot of time on dialysis or patients who receive chemotherapy drugs, it can be said that accessing the vein is not easy due to consecutive venipuncture. Sometimes, medical staff encounter patients who, due to damage to the vein-extraction areas, have to perform vein-extraction from parts of the body that are not common. Vein-extraction from these areas is difficult and requires great care, but there is no other way to treat the patient.Currently, venous blood collection and infusion are usually based on human visual observation and the individual's experience in finding the vein. Having a tool that can easily show the vein and reduce these risks is essential. This device is used in all medical centers such as laboratories, hospitals, clinics, health centers and even doctors' offices and in all cardiopulmonary resuscitation bags. Veining with this device is a relatively simple process that creates greater clarity in showing the superficial vessels of the skin, which increases the success rate of veining. It can be used in all age groups and in all parts of the body. The blood oxygen and heart rate measurement sensor built into this device, in addition to informing the medical staff about the patient's blood oxygen level and consequently the patient's respiratory status, prevents the injection of drugs that have respiratory complications for the patient. By measuring the heart rate, it is possible to prevent the administration of drugs that are contraindicated in high or low heart rates, such as: propranolol, digoxin, etc. The aforementioned device is designed to reduce these problems and provide easier access to the patient's vein. A description of the state of the prior art and the history of developments related to the claimed invention. On the Wipo site, there is a patent that can only show the veins on the back of the hand and has no other use. On the Wipo site, there is another patent that is in the form of a flashlight that shows the veins by shining on the skin, and since the light is emitted from a distance, it does not show the veins clearly. In addition, it has no other use. On the Wipo site, there is a patent that is made of cameras that use a controller to control the cameras. It is difficult and time-consuming to work with and is different from the invention we are considering. Overall, the previous cases are different from the aforementioned invention in terms of its function and appearance. Unlike previous inventions that could be used in infants and children and in specific parts of the body, the aforementioned device can be used for vein removal on all parts of the body and all age groups and is placed completely on the skin and shows the veins clearly. It is easy to access and use. It can be recharged with common chargers. It has an acceptable size that can be easily used everywhere.Due to its size and the use of functional devices and the elimination of redundant devices from previous research, it can be introduced to the market at a lower price than previous devices. The blood oxygen and heart rate sensors found in this device are not found in any of the previous inventions. Providing a solution to an existing technical problem along with an accurate, sufficient, and integrated description of the invention Based on observation and experience, manual venipuncture is not only difficult for the patient and may result in complications, but also difficult and tiring for the medical staff. Repeated attempts at successful venipuncture increase the likelihood of the client not cooperating with the medical staff. In addition to making venipuncture easier, the vein locator device reduces complications from repeated venipuncture. In addition, it creates trust between the medical staff and the client and increases cooperation. Explanation of shapes, maps and diagrams According to the diagram, the vein and blood oxygen and heart rate finder consists of a charging socket (1), a status switch (2), a screw-in place for the caps (3,7), a display screen (4), a light intensity adjustment switch (5), an LED circuit, and a pulse oximeter sensor (6). By pressing the on button, the infrared light turns on. We place the bottom of the device on the area where we intend to take a vein. The veins in the area appear in black. To measure blood oxygen and heart rate, press the corresponding button and the oxygen and heart rate sensor turns on and shows its level before the injection in a fraction of a second. A clear and precise statement of the advantages of the claimed invention over prior inventions. Venous veins are the most suitable veins for blood sampling and injection. Given that the position of the vein in the body is hypothetical and intravenous injection routes are used for blood sampling and administration of injectable drugs, fluids and even food to the body, if the medical staff uses a vein finder, blood oxygen and heart rate for blood sampling and injection of drugs, it will facilitate the operation of venipuncture, blood sampling and blood and drug injection. The presence of a sensor indicating oxygen and heart rate prevents respiratory complications and cardiovascular problems, etc. in the client. Description of at least one implementation method for implementing the invention This device is used in all medical centers such as laboratories, hospitals, clinics, health centers, and even doctors' offices, and in all cardiopulmonary resuscitation bags. It is used for blood sampling, venipuncture, drug injection, and oxygen and heart rate measurement to determine the patient's respiratory status and heart rate, and to prevent respiratory and cardiovascular complications. Explicit mention of the industrial application of the invention The device is used in medical and paramedical fields to teach venipuncture and to take the veins of people with so-called bad veins.
