[0034] The anal cleaning device for incontinence patients according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an anal cleaning device for incontinence patients provided according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises an anal bag 10, a flushing tube 20, a connecting tube 30 and a pressurizing assembly 40. The anal bag 10 has a bottom plate 101 connected as one body, and a through hole 102 is provided through the bottom plate 101 in the center direction thereof to communicate with the anal bag 10; the flushing tube 20 is located in the anal bag 10 and is fittedly arranged on the inner surface of the bottom plate 101; wherein the flushing tube 20 surrounds the edge of the bottom plate 101 and extends toward the through hole 102 to have a plurality of flushing sections 201 with flushing holes; one end of the connecting tube 30 is connected to the flushing tube 20, and the other end is connected to the physiological saline bottle 50; the pressurizing assembly 40 is covered on the outside of the physiological saline bottle 50 for pressurizing the physiological saline bottle 50, so that the physiological saline enters the flushing tube 20 through the connecting tube 30 and is sprayed out from the flushing holes.

[0036] Among them, the chassis 101 of the anal bag 10 needs to use scissors to cut the size of the through hole 102 to a suitable size so that it can be more accurately attached to the patient's anus or stoma. Therefore, the flushing section 201 can be shortened at the same time as the chassis 101, so that the flushing section 201 and the through hole 102 can be directly opposite the through hole 102, and will not cause discomfort to the patient during use, thereby improving the comfort of the patient during use; preferably, the chassis 101 and the flushing tube 20 are both made of silicone and can be integrated. The chassis 101 and the flushing tube 20 made of silicone are more convenient to adapt during use, and the cutting of the chassis 101 and the flushing section 201 can be more convenient to operate, thereby making it more convenient to clean the patient's anus.

[0037] The anal cleaning device for incontinent patients provided by the present invention is attached to the stoma or anus through the anal bag 10 when in use, so that the stoma or anus of the patient is connected to the through hole 102, and the excrement can be discharged from the through hole 102 when the patient is incontinent. When the excrement of the patient is dry, the saline bottle 50 and the flushing tube 20 can be connected, and then the saline bottle 50 is pressurized by the booster component 40, so that the saline enters the flushing tube 20 from the connecting tube 30, and the saline entering the flushing tube 20 can be flushed from the flushing section 201 toward the through hole 102 at the same time to dilute the excrement of the patient, making the discharge process more convenient and simple for the patient, facilitating the anal cleaning of the patient, and reducing the workload of medical staff.

[0038] Specifically, the circumferential direction of the base plate 101 is provided with a concentric adhesive ring 103, and the surface of the adhesive ring 103 is coated with an adhesive for bonding to the user's skin surface. The adhesive ring 103 can be made of non-woven fabric, and the base plate 101 is fixed to the user's skin surface by the adhesive ring 103. The flexible non-woven fabric can make the fit more tight and comfortable, and can ensure the stability after bonding to prevent falling.

[0039] Specifically, the inner diameter of the flushing hole is configured to gradually decrease from the connection end to the opening end. In this embodiment, the flushing hole is set to gradually decrease from the connection end to the opening end, so that the impact force can be greater after the physiological saline enters, thereby making the cleaning force stronger. It can be understood that when the flushing section 201 is shortened, the inner diameter of the flushing hole will increase accordingly, so the inner diameter of the flushing hole can also be set to multiple sizes, and the size of the connection end can be the largest, and then it can be reduced and increased in sequence, and set to the smallest at the opening end, and a scale is marked for each reduced and increased position, and when cutting, the increased and reduced sizes can be cut; for example, the inner diameter of the flushing section 201 can be set to 4mm, 2mm, 3mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, and 1mm from the connection end to the opening end, so that when cutting, it can be cut between 2.5mm and 2mm, so that the size of the opening end can be 2mm. It can be understood that the above method can be set as an optional implementation method, and it only needs to ensure that the impact force of the water flow is sufficient, and no limitation is made here.

[0040] Furthermore, a connector 202 is included, one end of which is connected to the flushing tube 20 as a whole, and the other end of which extends to the outside of the anal bag 10. The connector 202 is connected to the flushing tube 20, so that the anal bag 10 and the connector 202 are integrated. When in use, the saline bottle 50 can be connected to the connector 202, which is more convenient. Medical staff only need to directly plug the connector 202 to achieve the connection between the saline bottle 50 and the anal bag 10.

[0041] Specifically, the connector 202 includes a first sealing portion 2021 and a second sealing portion 2022, both of which are formed by protruding outward from the surface of the anal bag 10, the first sealing portion 2021 is sealed outside the anal bag 10, and the second sealing portion 2022 is stopped inside the anal bag 10. The connector 202 is fixed to the anal bag 10 as a whole through the first sealing portion 2021 and the second sealing portion 2022, so that the connector 202 can ensure its sealing and stability. Since the anal bag 10 is made of soft material, the connector 202 can be made of silicone or plastic material, so as to be fixed on the anal bag 10, ensuring the convenience of connecting the connector 202.

[0042] Specifically, the pressurizing assembly 40 includes an airbag 402 and an air bag 401. The airbag 401 is formed into a cylindrical shape to wrap the saline bottle 50. The bag surface of the airbag 401 is sealed to form an inflation cavity 4011. The airbag 402 is connected to the inflation cavity 4011 to inflate the inflation cavity 4011. The saline bottle 50 is made of soft rubber. In this embodiment, when the saline bottle 50 is pressurized, the airbag 401 is inflated by squeezing the airbag 402, so that the airbag 401 expands and squeezes the saline bottle 50, so that the saline in the saline bottle 50 enters the flushing tube 20 from the connecting tube 30, and the impact force of the saline is stronger, and the excrement cleaning force of the patient's perianal area is greater, which is convenient for operation.

[0043] Furthermore, the airbag 401 is provided with handles 403, which are provided on opposite sides of the airbag 401 and are integrally connected to the airbag 401. The handles 403 are provided on the airbag 401, so that the airbag 401 can be hung, and then the airbag 402 can be squeezed to inflate, making it more convenient to operate and avoiding fatigue of medical staff.

[0044] Preferably, the outer surface of the chassis 101 is marked with annular scale lines radially outward from the through hole 102. In this embodiment, when the annular scale lines are marked on the chassis 101, it is convenient to check when cutting the chassis 101, so that it can be cut to a suitable position, and it can fit the patient better during use, improving comfort.

[0045] Optionally, a suction tube 104 is provided on the inner wall of the anal bag 10 and extends to the outside of the anal bag 10. The suction tube 104 is used to connect to the negative pressure device to extract the excrement in the anal bag 10. In this embodiment, when the excrement in the anal bag 10 is discharged, the suction tube 104 is connected to the negative pressure device to extract the excrement in the anal bag 10, which can ensure the cleanliness of the anal bag 10, avoid excessive accumulation, and make it more convenient to use; wherein, when in use, by closing the bottom of the anal bag 10, for example, by tying the bottom of the anal bag 10 with a rubber band, and then connecting the suction tube 104 to the negative pressure device, and then sucking the excrement to avoid leakage; optionally, the bottom of the anal bag 10 and the suction tube 104 can also be set to be closed, for example, the bottom of the anal bag 10 is closed and connected to the outside through the suction tube 104. It can be understood that the connection between the anal bag 10 and the suction tube 104 can be set according to actual needs, and no limitation is made here.
