Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to an automatic urine leakage-proof flushing catheter. Background Art

[0002] Catheterization is a routine operation technique that medical staff must master. It refers to the process of inserting a urinary catheter into the bladder through the external urethral opening to drain urine. Commonly used urinary catheters in clinical practice mainly include double-lumen urinary catheters and triple-lumen urinary catheters. The double-lumen urinary catheter includes a main body and a fixed balloon water injection end and a urination end connected to the rear end of the main body. The front wall of the main body is provided with a urination hole connected to the urination end, and a spherical bladder fixed balloon connected to the fixed balloon water injection end; the triple-lumen urinary catheter is based on the double-lumen urinary catheter, and a bladder flushing end connected to the urination hole is added to the rear end of the main body. In clinical application, first connect the urine bag to the urination end, lubricate the main body with liquid paraffin, insert the head end of the main body into the bladder through the external urethral opening, and then fill the bladder fixed balloon with water through the fixed balloon water injection end, and pull the main body back to make the bladder fixed balloon close to the internal urethral opening.

[0003] When the above-mentioned catheter is actually used, male urine leakage often occurs, which not only affects the recording of urine volume and increases the workload of medical staff, but also urine contamination of bed sheets and pants makes it easier for patients to feel embarrassed. In response to the problem of urine leakage, the invention of announcement number CN209033489 U discloses a urine leakage-proof catheter that is easy to flush, in which a truncated cone-shaped urine leakage-proof balloon is set on the main body close to the rear end of the bladder fixed balloon; the invention of announcement number CN 210057103 U discloses a urine leakage-proof catheter, in which an elastic valve that wraps the bladder fixed balloon is set on the main body, and a conical urine leakage-proof balloon is formed around the outer wall of the tube body when the bladder fixed balloon is filled. The above patent mainly adds a urine leakage-proof balloon. The conical urine leakage-proof balloon fits better with the bladder wall around the internal opening of the urethra, and the contact surface between the conical balloon and the bladder mucosa is larger, which has a certain urine leakage-proof function. However, due to the lack of direct force on the contact surface, the pressure of the balloon on the bladder is relatively small. When the anti-leakage balloon moves, urine can still flow to the internal urethra through the gap between the balloon and the bladder folds, causing urine leakage. In addition, when the bladder fixation balloon is overfilled, the head end of the catheter will have a greater stimulation on the bladder wall, which is easy to cause pain to the patient.

[0004] The main reasons for urine leakage during catheterization are as follows: 1. When the bladder is full, its inner wall is smooth, and the bladder fixation balloon fits tightly against the internal urethral opening. When the bladder is empty, the bladder volume shrinks, and the inner wall of the bladder produces radial bladder folds centered on the internal urethral opening. At this time, the bladder fixation balloon will move away from the internal urethral opening, and there will be a gap between the bladder fixation balloon and the bladder wall, causing urine to flow into the internal urethral opening through the fold gap; 2. The bladder fixation balloon is spherical, while the bladder wall near the internal urethral opening in the empty state is funnel-shaped. The contact area between the bladder fixation balloon and the funnel-shaped bladder wall is small, and urine can easily pass through the bladder fixation balloon and the funnel-shaped bladder wall. The urine in the secondary space can be squeezed into the urethra through the internal urethral opening; 4. There are three physiological strictures in the urethra, namely, the internal urethral opening, the narrow part and the external urethral opening. After the urethra passes through the three strictures, there is a gap between the other parts of the urethra and the main body of the urethra. Under the action of the urethral smooth muscle, this gap is smaller. However, in the elderly, comatose, paraplegic, diabetic and other patients, the urethral smooth muscle is relatively relaxed, and the gap between the main body of the urethra and the urethra is larger, so the urine at the internal urethral opening can flow out through this gap. Based on the analysis of the causes of urine leakage, urine leakage can be prevented from the following aspects: 1. Increase the pressure of the balloon on the bladder mucosa at the urethral opening; 2. Increase the contact area between the balloon near the internal urethral opening and the bladder wall at that location; 3. Reduce the gap between the balloon and the urethral opening; 4. Reduce the gap between the catheter and the urethral mucosa. Summary of the invention

[0005] According to the above-mentioned existing urinary catheter, due to the lack of direct force between the contact surface between the balloon and the bladder mucosa, the pressure of the balloon on the bladder is relatively small. When the anti-leakage balloon is active, urine can still flow to the internal urethral opening through the gap between the balloon and the bladder folds, resulting in urine leakage; in addition, when the bladder fixed balloon is overfilled, the head end catheter has a greater stimulation to the bladder wall, which is easy to cause pain to the patient. An automatic anti-leakage flushing catheter is provided. The present invention mainly utilizes the bladder fixed balloon to block the internal urethral opening and the bladder wall near the internal urethral opening at the same time to prevent urine leakage; the absorbent fiber in the second balloon is used to absorb urine through the urine through the urine hole. After absorbing urine, the absorbent fiber expands to gradually increase the diameter of the second balloon. The diameter of the balloon can be automatically adjusted according to the amount of urine leaked until the balloon and the urethra are completely fitted, thereby avoiding urine leakage and preventing displacement in the catheter. At the same time, the catheter is pulled outward, so that the bladder fixed balloon can compress the internal urethral opening and the bladder wall near the internal urethral opening.

[0006] The technical means adopted by the present invention are as follows:

[0007] An automatic urine leakage prevention flushing catheter comprises: a catheter body, a balloon part with dual urine leakage prevention and displacement prevention functions, and a water injection end, a bladder flushing end and a urination end arranged at the tail end of the catheter body. The balloon part is composed of a first balloon arranged at the inner opening of the urethra and a second balloon with the function of automatically absorbing leaked urine, both of which are arranged on the tube wall of the catheter body. The water injection end is connected with the first balloon to inject water into the first balloon. The head end of the catheter body is provided with a urine catheter hole, which is connected with the bladder flushing end and the urination end through a channel 1 arranged in the catheter body, and is used for flushing the bladder and urinating respectively. The first balloon is arranged between the urine catheter hole and the second balloon.

[0008] Furthermore, the first balloon is a bladder fixing balloon, which is connected to the water injection end through a second channel arranged inside the catheter body. After water injection, the first balloon is shaped like a water drop, and blocks the urethral opening and the bladder wall near the urethral opening in the water injection state;

[0009] The first balloon consists of an integrated balloon 1 and a balloon 2 whose inner cavities are connected. Balloon 1 is placed on the side away from the catheter hole, balloon 2 is placed on the side close to the catheter hole, and the head end of channel 2 is located inside balloon 1; balloon 2 and the catheter hole are placed in the bladder, and balloon 1 is placed in the urethra. After water is injected, balloon 2 is tightly attached to the bladder mucosa at the internal opening of the urethra, balloon 1 blocks the internal opening of the urethra, and the internal opening of the urethra is located between balloon 1 and balloon 2 to prevent urine leakage and prevent the catheter from shifting.

[0010] Furthermore, the second balloon has a semicircular or semi-elliptical structure after being filled with water, and the first balloon has a conical structure after being filled with water, and the tapering direction of the conical structure is toward the tail end of the catheter body.

[0011] Furthermore, the tube wall of the catheter body is provided with a conical or cylindrical groove structure in the circumferential direction, the second balloon is placed in the groove structure, and is a cylindrical balloon before absorbing urine; the inner cavity of the second balloon is filled with absorbent fibers; the surface of the second balloon is provided with a urine passage hole connected to the inner cavity thereof;

[0012] The length of the tube wall at the groove structure is 2-5 cm, preferably 3 cm.

[0013] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the tube wall at the conical groove structure gradually decreases toward the tail end of the catheter body, and the thickness of the absorption fiber gradually becomes thicker. The absorption fiber expands after absorbing urine through the urine passage hole, and the second balloon expands accordingly and the diameter gradually increases until the gap between the balloon and the urethra is completely blocked to prevent displacement within the balloon; the expanded second balloon is conical, and the tapering direction is toward the head end of the catheter body.

[0014] Furthermore, a string of balloons connected end to end is provided in the cylindrical groove structure, the inner cavities of each balloon in the string are connected, and each inner cavity is filled with absorbent fibers. The density of the filled absorbent fibers increases step by step, and the leaked urine is automatically absorbed through the urine passage hole. The absorbent fibers in each balloon expand into a spherical or ellipsoidal shape after absorbing urine, thereby blocking the gap between the balloon and the urethra and preventing displacement inside the balloon.

[0015] Furthermore, the maximum capacity of the first balloon is 35 ml and the maximum diameter is 2 cm.

[0016] Furthermore, the maximum expansion diameter of the second balloon is 1.2 cm.

[0017] Furthermore, the number of balloons in the string of balloons is 3-6, and the maximum balloon diameter is 1 cm.

[0018] Furthermore, the first balloon and the second balloon are made of rubber, silicone, polyurethane, polypropylene or polytetrafluoroethylene;

[0019] The outer diameter of the catheter body is 6-22Fr, specifically 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 or 22Fr, preferably 18Fr; the length of the catheter body is 30-40cm, preferably 40cm; the head end of the catheter body is semi-elliptical.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0021] 1. The automatic urine leakage prevention flushing catheter provided by the present invention can simultaneously block the urethral opening and the bladder wall near the urethral opening to prevent urine leakage.

[0022] 2. The automatic anti-urine leakage flushing catheter provided by the present invention has absorbent fibers that can absorb urine through the urine passage holes on the surface of the cylindrical balloon. After absorbing urine, the diameter of the cylindrical balloon gradually increases, and the diameter of the balloon can be automatically adjusted according to the amount of leaked urine until the balloon and the urethra are completely fitted, thereby preventing urine leakage.

[0023] 3. The automatic anti-urinary leakage flushing catheter provided by the present invention can prevent the urinary catheter from shifting after the absorbent fiber absorbs urine and fills the balloon. At the same time, pulling the urinary catheter outward can make the bladder fixing balloon compress the urethral opening and the bladder wall near the urethral opening.

[0024] In summary, the application of the technical solution of the present invention can solve the problem that in the existing urinary catheter, due to the lack of direct force between the contact surface between the balloon and the bladder mucosa, the pressure of the balloon on the bladder is relatively small. When the leak-proof balloon is active, urine can still flow to the internal orifice of the urethra through the gap between the balloon and the bladder folds, causing urine leakage; in addition, when the bladder fixing balloon is over-filled, the head end of the catheter will have a greater stimulation to the bladder wall, which is easy to cause pain to the patient.

[0025] Based on the above reasons, the present invention can be widely promoted in the fields of medicine and the like. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
