Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to a portable super-slip intermittent urinary catheter. Background Art
[0002] For patients with neurogenic bladder due to spinal cord injury, their kidney, bladder and urethral functions usually remain normal. However, long-term reliance on indwelling catheterization will inevitably lead to bladder function deterioration. Therefore, the medical community generally recommends the use of intermittent catheterization to maintain the patient's bladder function.
[0003] Before using the traditional intermittent catheter, lubricant (such as liquid paraffin or silicone oil) needs to be applied manually on its surface, and then inserted into the urethra for catheterization. However, manual application is not only cumbersome, but also the application quality cannot be guaranteed. Moreover, such lubricant applied later is easy to fall off into the urethra and bladder during the insertion process, and the lubrication effect is limited. In order to overcome the above defects, the improved super-slip intermittent catheter came into being. The surface of this catheter is pre-coated with a super-slip coating. Before use, it is soaked in water until the coating is fully moistened and swollen, and then it can be inserted into the urethra and bladder for catheterization. The operation is simple and the lubrication effect is good. However, the use of this catheter requires additional water source and container before operation, and the patient is required to wait patiently for the coating to absorb water and activate, which limits the flexibility of use. In addition, the above two catheters are not only of considerable length, but also usually packaged in a slender state, which is not convenient for carrying outside; after use, the catheter is exposed and lacks a container, which is not conducive to the disposal after catheterization.

[0018] The catheter 1, the cup 7 and the handle 9 are all coaxially arranged; the connector 3 of the catheter 1 and the cup 7 are detachably connected; the sizes of the baffle 10 and the slot 11 are correspondingly arranged; when in use, the cup 7 is pulled forward and the handle 9 is pulled backward, the cup 7 drives the catheter 1 to move together, the slot 11 of the handle 9 and the baffle 10 of the connector 3 approach each other until they are engaged, so that the cup 7 and the catheter 1 are both extended out of the handle 9, and the urinary catheter is unfolded.
[0019] The outer circumference of the baffle 10 is interference fit with the inner circumference of the handle 9, and a baffle ring 12 is fixedly provided on the inner circumference of the handle 9 in front of the slot 11. The inner diameter of the baffle ring 12 is smaller than the inner diameter of the handle 9, so as to stop the baffle 10 and prevent the connector 3 from detaching from the handle 9.
[0020] The handle 9 is a hollow cylinder with fixed inner and outer diameters; the retaining ring 12 is arranged adjacent to the slot 11 , and when the baffle 10 is inserted into the slot 11 , the retaining ring 12 and the baffle 10 fit together to prevent the connector 3 from being separated from the handle 9 .
[0021] The outer circumferential surface of the joint 3 is provided with at least one annular groove 14, and a sealing convex ring 15 that fits with the inner circumferential surface of the sleeve cup 7 is correspondingly provided in the annular groove 14. A hook ring 16 is fixedly provided on the inner circumferential surface of the rear end of the sleeve cup 7. The inner diameter of the hook ring 16 is smaller than the outer diameter of the sealing convex ring 15, so that the sealing convex ring 15 can be hooked when the sleeve cup 7 moves forward, thereby driving the joint 3 to move together.
[0022] The sealing convex ring 15 is made of elastic materials such as rubber. The annular groove 14 can stably sleeve the sealing convex ring 15 on the joint 3 to prevent it from being displaced due to the pulling of the hook ring 16 and destroying the seal of the opening of the sleeve cup 7. The annular groove 14 and the sealing convex ring 15 can be set in one or more groups according to the use requirements. The hook ring 16 of the sleeve cup 7 is set between any annular groove 14 and the baffle 10, and the inner diameter of the hook ring 16 is larger than the outer diameter of the joint 3; after the urinary catheter is unfolded, the joint 3 of the catheter 1 is fixed to the handle 9, and the sleeve cup 7 is continuously pulled forward so that the hook ring 16 passes over the sealing convex ring 15 forward, so that the sleeve cup 7 can be separated from the joint 3 of the catheter 1, thereby exposing the tube body 2 of the catheter to the outside.

[0025] The connector 3 is cylindrical, and the diameter of the connector 3 is smaller than the inner diameter of the sleeve cup 7 , thereby allowing the sleeve cup 7 to move forward and backward relative to the connector 3 , and the hook ring 16 never stops and interferes with the outer peripheral surface of the connector 3 .
[0026] The soaking liquid 8 is sterile water. The sterile water is placed in the cup by the method a or b: a: Use aseptic filling technology to fill the aseptically treated water into the cup under aseptic conditions; b: First fill the cup with water, and then sterilize the entire cup (including the water inside) with radiation.
[0027] A portable super-slip intermittent urinary catheter, the assembly and use methods of which are as follows: Assembly: First, install the sealing convex ring 15 on the annular groove 14 of the joint 3, then inject a proper amount of soaking liquid 8 into the sleeve cup 7, then insert the tube body 2 coated with the super-slip coating into the sleeve cup 7, insert the joint 3 into the cup mouth of the sleeve cup 7, make the baffle 10 abut against the rear end surface of the sleeve cup 7, and finally put the handle 9 on the outside of the sleeve cup 7 and the joint 3, ensuring that the front section of the sleeve cup 7 extends out of the front end opening of the handle 9 to form a grip section 17.
[0028] Usage: Hold the handle 9 with one hand and the gripping section 17 (or the pull ring 18) of the cup 7 with the other hand, and gently pull the handle 9 and the cup 7 apart. At this time, the hook ring 16 of the cup 7 will hook the sealing convex ring 15 of the connector 3 forward, driving the connector 3 to move forward together; as the cup 7 and the connector 3 move, the card slot 11 of the handle 9 and the baffle 10 of the connector 3 gradually approach each other, and when the baffle ring 12 of the handle 9 fits with the baffle 10 of the connector 3, the card slot 11 of the handle 9 and the baffle 10 of the connector 3 are engaged, thereby ensuring that the catheter 1 and the handle 9 are relatively fixed. At this time, the cup 7 and the catheter 1 are both extended out of the handle 9, and the urinary catheter is in an unfolded state ( Figure 5 ); After the urinary catheter is unfolded, the cup 7 is continuously pulled forward, so that the hook ring 16 passes forward over the sealing convex ring 15, and the cup 7 can be removed from the connector 3 of the catheter 1, and the handle 9 is exposed on the body 2 of the catheter 1 ( Figure 6 ); discard the soaking liquid 8 in the cup 7; at this time, the super-slip coating on the surface of the tube body 2 has been completely wetted and / or swollen, and the handle 9 can be held for catheterization; after the catheterization is completed, the empty cup 7 and the catheter 1 can be reassembled and reset and disposed of, effectively preventing the tube body 2 from being exposed and contaminated.
[0029] The present invention provides a cup 7 for accommodating the tube body 2, and presets a soaking liquid 8 in the cup 7, so that the ultra-slip coating of the tube body 2 is always in a usable state of wetting and swelling, without the need to prepare an additional water source and container, and without waiting for the coating to absorb water and activate; the joint 3 forms a telescopic structure with the handle 9 through the baffle 10, the slot 11 and the baffle ring 12, which effectively reduces the overall length and is convenient for carrying outside; after the catheterization is completed, the empty cup 7 and the catheter 1 can be reassembled and disposed of, effectively preventing the tube body 2 from being exposed and contaminated, and facilitating disposal after the catheterization.
