Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical machinery, in particular to a blood purification device with a respiratory support function. Background Art

[0002] Extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) is one of the extracorporeal life support technologies. It drains blood to an artificial membrane lung (membrane oxygenator) for oxygenation and removal of CO2, and then returns it to the human body, thereby achieving gas exchange to replace lung ventilation function. Extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) is mainly used to remove carbon dioxide from patients with acute hypoxia or acute hypercapnia respiratory failure to minimize respiratory acidosis and allow more lung protective ventilator settings, which can reduce ventilator-induced lung damage. The blood flow of extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) is relatively low (200-1500ml / min), which can completely remove the CO2 metabolized by the human body. While removing CO2, it can also provide patients with partial oxygenation capacity and achieve partial respiratory function support for patients.

[0003] Currently, ECMO devices are mostly used clinically to reduce blood flow and use smaller catheters than ECMO for ECCO2R treatment. ECMO equipment is expensive, has high consumable costs, usually requires a medical team to operate, is complex to use, and requires very high technical skills from operators. In addition, the reduced efficiency of the centrifugal pump in the ECMO system can lead to blood stagnation and increased recirculation, which may lead to increased hemolysis. At the same time, lower blood flow may also lead to uneven blood flow distribution. Blood will stagnate when passing through a large membrane lung, requiring the use of higher doses of anticoagulants to avoid thrombosis, which will increase the risk of severe bleeding in patients.

[0004] Usually, patients with respiratory failure have concurrent organ failure and need continuous blood purification equipment (CRRT) to remove toxins and water from the patient's body and correct the internal environment disorder. Therefore, the patient needs to be treated with CRRT equipment and ECMO equipment at the same time to achieve functional support treatment for multiple organs. However, the combined use of the two devices is complicated to operate, has high treatment costs, and poses safety risks. Utility Model Content

The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the utility model provides a blood purification device with a respiratory support function, and an oxygenator 4 is arranged on the blood path of the blood purification device. In this embodiment, the oxygenator 4 can be a membrane oxygenator, which can be arranged in the blood path output pipeline, such as Figure 1 As shown, it can also be set on the blood input pipeline, which refers to the pipeline that returns blood to the patient end, such as Figure 2 As shown, extracorporeal oxygenation of blood and removal of carbon dioxide are simultaneously performed during the blood purification process.

[0031] The blood purification device is also provided with a replacement fluid pipeline and a dialysate pipeline 14. One end of the replacement fluid pipeline is input with replacement fluid and the other end is connected to the blood circuit. One end of the dialysate pipeline 14 is input with replacement fluid and the other end is connected to the dialysate inlet of the blood filter 6 of the blood purification device. The replacement fluid pipeline may include a front replacement fluid pipeline 21 and may also include a rear replacement fluid pipeline 12. Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 The case where the oxygenator 4 is arranged on the blood input pipeline and only the rear replacement fluid pipeline 12 is arranged is shown. Figure 2 In the figure, the blood purification device includes a display screen 1 and a host 2, and a blood pump 3, a dialysate pump 16, a post-replacement fluid pump 13, a waste fluid pump 15, a replacement fluid meter 18, and a waste fluid meter 10 are arranged on the front of the host 2.

[0032] The blood pump 3 is installed on the arterial pipeline 8, the inlet of the arterial pipeline 8 is connected to the outlet of the patient's blood channel pair, the outlet of the arterial pipeline 8 is connected to the inlet of the blood filter 6, the blood filter 6 is fixed on the host 2 through the clamp 7, the outlet of the blood filter 6 is connected to the blood inlet of the oxygenator 4 through the pipeline, the oxygenator 4 is fixed on the host 2 through the clamp 5, the air inlet of the oxygenator 4 is connected to oxygen, the blood outlet of the oxygenator 4 is connected to the venous pipeline 9, the venous pot is arranged on the venous pipeline 9, and the other end of the venous pipeline 9 is connected to the outlet of the patient's central venous catheter.

[0033] The replacement fluid bag 19 is hung on the replacement fluid meter 18, the liquid interface of the replacement fluid bag 19 is connected to the inlet of the rear replacement fluid pipeline 12, the rear replacement fluid pump 13 is installed on the rear replacement fluid pipeline 12, and the outlet of the rear replacement fluid pipeline 12 is connected to the venous pot branch of the venous pipeline 9.

[0034] The pipeline between the inlet of the post-replacement fluid pipeline 12 and the post-replacement fluid pump 13 is provided with a branch pipe, which is connected to the inlet of the dialysate pipeline 14. The dialysate pump 16 is installed on the dialysate pipeline 14. The outlet of the dialysate pipeline 14 is connected to the first connector outside the membrane of the blood filter 6.

[0035] The second connector outside the membrane of the blood filter 6 is connected to the inlet of the waste liquid pipeline 17, and a waste liquid pump 15 is provided on the waste liquid pipeline 17. The outlet of the waste liquid pipeline 17 is connected to the connector of the waste liquid bag 11, and the waste liquid bag 11 is hung on the waste liquid meter 10.

[0036] The blood purification device draws the patient's blood from the outlet of the central venous catheter through the blood pump 3, and the blood passes through the blood filter 6 and the oxygenator 4 in turn. The blood after substance exchange and gas exchange respectively is finally returned to the human body through the inlet of the central venous catheter, forming a continuous extracorporeal blood circulation.

[0037] The rear replacement fluid pump 13 uses power to transfer the liquid in the replacement fluid bag 19 from the branch pipe on the venous pot to the venous blood and enter the human body; the dialysate pump 16 uses power to transfer the liquid in the replacement fluid bag 19 to the outside of the membrane of the blood filter 6; the waste liquid pump 15 uses power to discharge the input dialysate into the waste liquid bag 11, and also discharges part of the water in the blood in the hollow fiber membrane of the blood filter 6 across the membrane into the waste liquid bag 11. In this process, the speeds of the rear replacement fluid pump 13, the dialysate pump 16 and the waste liquid pump 15 are adjusted by continuous measurement by the replacement fluid meter 18 and the waste liquid meter 10, so that the liquid output from the replacement fluid bag 19 and the liquid discharged into the waste liquid bag 11 are balanced. According to the clinical treatment prescription, if dehydration is required from the body of a patient with renal failure, the speeds of the rear replacement fluid pump 13, the dialysate pump 16 and the waste liquid pump 15 are adjusted so that the amount of liquid entering the waste liquid bag 11 per unit time is greater than the amount of liquid discharged from the replacement fluid bag 19, and the difference is the amount of dehydration from the human body per unit time. The replacement fluid mainly contains ions that are close to the human body's components, including potassium, sodium, calcium, chloride, magnesium, glucose, bicarbonate and other ion components. When passing through the blood filter 6, it can continuously remove a large number of small and medium-molecule toxins in the human blood by utilizing the principles of diffusion and convection, and achieve the removal of creatinine, urea nitrogen, inflammatory mediators, cytokines and other substances in patients with renal failure and respiratory failure.

The carbon dioxide partial pressure signal output end of the transcutaneous carbon dioxide monitor 24 is connected to the control module of the blood purification device. The control module can evaluate the therapeutic effect according to the information fed back by the first blood oxygen monitor 22, the second blood oxygen monitor sensor 23, and the transcutaneous carbon dioxide monitor 24, and feedback and adjust the parameters such as blood flow and oxygen flow to achieve the best treatment effect; at the same time, according to the information fed back by the first blood oxygen monitor 22, the second blood oxygen monitor sensor 23, and the transcutaneous carbon dioxide monitor 24, it can analyze whether the oxygenator 4 has a decreased gas exchange efficiency due to the blockage of the membrane pores of the oxygenator, and prompt the operator to replace the corresponding consumables in time. When prompting, an alarm module can be set to prompt, such as a voice alarm module, or text or graphics can be used on the display screen 1 to alarm.

[0041] In this embodiment, the air inlet of the oxygenator 4 is connected to the oxygen outlet of the oxygen supply device, and the oxygen supply device can be connected to the control module for communication.
