Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical scientific research, and in particular to a device for intraperitoneal injection of mice. Background Art

[0002] As a conventional route of administration, intraperitoneal injection is suitable for mild water-soluble drugs. Its wide absorption area and direct access to the blood make the drug absorption fast and have strong absorption capacity. The drug's circulation path enters the portal vein through the superior mesenteric vein, then passes through the liver, and then enters the inferior vena cava through the hepatic vein, and finally flows into the right atrium and right ventricle, where it is absorbed into the blood circulation. This method avoids the first-pass metabolism of the gastrointestinal tract, but the first-pass metabolism of the liver still exists. Despite this, its bioavailability is still very high, so it is widely used.

[0003] During the specific operation, you should first gently grasp the animal's tail with one hand and then place it on a rough surface. Then, use the thumb and index finger of the other hand to firmly clamp the animal's ears and the skin between them, and use the middle finger and ring finger to press the skin on the back of the animal against the palm to ensure stability. The best needle insertion position is the midline of the lower abdomen, because there are no abdominal muscles and less blood circulation there, reducing the risk of bleeding. Intraperitoneal injections are generally inserted at an angle of 30-60°, and the operation is slow to prevent rapid puncture of the intestine. Before injecting the drug, it is often necessary to withdraw the needle plug, make sure that the needle has not pierced the small intestine, bladder or blood vessels, and then slowly inject the drug solution.

[0004] Traditional intraperitoneal injections usually require the non-dominant hand to hold the mouse and the dominant hand to inject, which poses a safety hazard for novice researchers. In addition, the hands will repeatedly switch between the mouse and the syringe, which is time-consuming and inefficient.

[0060] The use process of the present invention is as follows:

[0061] In the first step, the syringe containing the medicine is placed on the syringe fixing assembly 3 and covered with the arc-shaped cover 32 . The ear seat of the syringe barrel is inserted into the ear groove 33 .

[0062] In the second step, the syringe fixing assembly 3 is clamped on the syringe push-pull assembly 4.

[0063] The third step is to adjust the angle of the syringe push-pull assembly 4 and install it on the support control assembly 5. To facilitate the subsequent adjustment of the injection angle of the syringe push-pull assembly 4, it is recommended to use a bolt and nut connection method to install the syringe push-pull assembly 4 on the support control assembly 5.

[0064] Step 4, injection operation: the operator uses his dominant hand to grab the mouse and place it on the front end of the syringe, then steps on the foot pedal 13 so that the foot pedal 13 presses the first button 15 at the front end, and the first controller 14 sends a wireless message to the second controller 53 after receiving the information that the first button 15 is pressed, and the second controller 53 controls the motor 421 to rotate forward after receiving the signal, and the motor 421 drives the lead screw 413 to rotate forward when rotating forward, and the lead screw 413 drives the push-pull plate 415 to move forward along the slide groove 414 when rotating forward, and the push-pull plate 415 abuts against the plunger handle of the syringe during the forward movement and drives the plunger handle of the syringe to move forward synchronously, thereby completing the drug injection operation.

[0065] Step 5: Absorption operation: In the first step, replace the syringe containing the medicine with an empty syringe. After that, complete the second and third steps in sequence, skip the fourth step, and implement the fifth step:

[0066] The foot pedal 13 is stepped on to press the first button 15 at the front end. After receiving the information that the first button 15 is pressed, the first controller 14 sends wireless information to the second controller 53. After receiving the signal, the second controller 53 controls the motor 421 to rotate forward. When the motor 421 rotates forward, it drives the lead screw 413 to rotate forward. When the lead screw 413 rotates forward, it drives the push-pull plate 415 to move forward along the slide groove 414. During the forward movement of the push-pull plate 415, it abuts against the plunger handle of the syringe. At this time, the pressure bar 4151 is rotated to press the pressure bar 4151 against the plunger handle of the syringe.

[0067] Afterwards, the operator uses his dominant hand to grab the mouse and place it at the front end of the syringe, and steps on the foot pedal 13 so that the foot pedal 13 presses the first button 15 at the rear end. After receiving the information that the first button 15 is pressed, the first controller 14 sends a wireless message to the second controller 53. After receiving the signal, the second controller 53 controls the motor 421 to reverse. When the motor 421 reverses, it drives the lead screw 413 to reverse. When the lead screw 413 reverses, it drives the push-pull plate 415 to move backward along the slide groove 414. The push-pull plate 415 drives the plunger handle of the syringe to move backward synchronously to complete the tissue sample absorption operation.

[0068] During or before the injection and aspiration operations, the operator presses the second button 54 with the non-dominant hand. After receiving the signal from the second button 54 , the second controller 53 adjusts the speed of the motor 421 .
