Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of PICC placement assistance, and in particular to a PICC placement assistance device. Background Art

[0002] PICC placement is a procedure that uses a catheter to puncture a vein in the peripheral arm, allowing the catheter to reach the large vein close to the heart, avoiding direct contact with the arm vein. The material used to make this type of catheter is relatively good, can withstand a certain degree of folding, and is not prone to severe bending or breaking, so it can be placed in the blood vessel for a long time. PICC placement generally selects superficial blood vessels in the upper limbs of the human body for puncture. First, the basilic vein is selected, and then a relatively thin catheter is passed through the basilic vein and sent into the axillary vein, then to the subclavian vein, superior vena cava, and finally to the right atrium of the human body. Before inserting the catheter into the blood vessels of the upper limbs, the hollow cannula sheath is generally inserted into the blood vessel and fixed. Then, the catheter is pinched by hand and inserted into the cannula sheath and slowly pushed into the blood vessel, finally reaching the right atrium of the human body.

[0003] To this end, the patent with authorization announcement number CN222056126U discloses a PICC catheter puncture auxiliary device, including a fixing plate, a fixing block is installed on the upper surface of the fixing plate, and a groove is opened diagonally on the upper surface of the fixing block. Through the provided movable plate, clamping block and insertion hole, one end of the catheter is inserted from the insertion hole on one side and inserted between the two clamping blocks, and then inserted from the insertion hole on the other side. After that, one end of the catheter is inserted into the patient's blood vessel, and the clamping block can clamp the catheter by pinching the two movable plates, and the movable plate can be pushed toward the direction of the blood vessel to drive the catheter deeper into the blood vessel, without the need to pinch the catheter by hand to push it. Compared with the existing technology, the catheter can be pushed deeper into the blood vessel by pinching the movable plate and pushing it toward the blood vessel. Compared with pinching the catheter with fingers to push it, it is much more convenient and is less likely to cause finger pain for medical staff. In addition, the clamping block has a better clamping effect on the catheter, and is less likely to cause the catheter to fall off.

[0004] The existing PICC catheterization auxiliary device, when in use, uses a single fixing block and Velcro to limit the patient's arm, and then the catheterization device is raised and lowered. The operation is cumbersome and it is inconvenient to adaptively adjust the catheterization device while limiting the patient's arm, thereby affecting the efficiency of the PICC catheterization operation. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a PICC catheter placement auxiliary device to solve the defect that the existing PICC catheter placement auxiliary device is inconvenient to limit the patient's arm while adaptively adjusting the catheter placement device.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a PICC placement auxiliary device, comprising a base;

[0013] Preferably, the receiving plate is of slotted design, and the receiving plate and the threaded block form a rotating structure.

[0014] Preferably, the second limiting plate is arranged parallel to the first limiting plate, and the protective pad is arranged symmetrically with respect to the central axis of the second limiting plate.

[0015] Preferably, the inner wall of the first limit plate is fixedly connected with an adjustment mechanism, and the adjustment mechanism includes an airbag fixedly installed on the inner wall of the first limit plate, the outer wall of the airbag is fixedly connected with an air pipe, one end of the air pipe is fixedly connected with an air cylinder, a movable groove is provided inside the air cylinder, a piston is installed inside the air cylinder, and the top of the piston is fixedly connected to a movable rod.

[0016] Preferably, the air cylinder and the piston form a sliding structure, and the piston is located in the movable groove.

[0017] Preferably, the outer diameter of the piston is the same as the inner diameter of the cylinder, the piston is in contact with the inner wall of the movable groove, the movable rod and the cylinder form a sliding structure, and the top end of the movable rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the receiving plate.

[0018] The PICC placement assist device provided by the present invention has the following advantages:

[0019] By means of the provided limiting mechanism and the tube placement tube, the base is placed on the hospital bed, and the patient's forearm is placed on the first limiting plate. By rotating the threaded block, the threaded block is threadedly connected to the threaded rod through the threaded groove, and the threaded block and the receiving plate form a rotating structure, so that the receiving plate can be raised and lowered along the threaded rod, driving the receiving plate to slide stably along the guide rod, so that the second limiting plate is attached to the upper part of the patient's forearm. Under the action of the protective pad, the arm can be protected, so that the tube placement tube fixedly connected to the top of the second limiting plate is subsequently lowered above the arm. At this time, one end of the catheter is inserted from one end of the tube placement tube, so that the catheter passes through the tube placement tube and is inserted into the intubation sheath fixed on the patient's arm, which can facilitate the auxiliary insertion of the catheter and play the effect of facilitating the limitation of the patient's arm.

[0020] Through the adjustment mechanism set up, the connecting plate is adjusted and lowered, so that the movable rod can be moved, driving the piston to slide along the movable groove, so that the gas in the cylinder is compressed and enters the airbag through the air pipe, so that the airbag is inflated, which can improve the comfort of the patient's arm. Since the airbag is elastic and a certain amount of air is preset inside the airbag, the position of the piston will not be higher due to the patient's thick arm, which will cause the airbag to be filled with air, further improving the stability of the limit on the patient's arm.
