Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a medical appliance, in particular to a lower limb fixer for a urinary catheter. Background Art

[0002] Catheterization is a commonly used method of urinary drainage in clinical practice. Specifically, a catheter is inserted into the bladder through the urethra to introduce urine into a urine bag. The existing practice is usually to hang the urine bag on the patient's waist, and then use 3E tape to stick the catheter to the skin of the patient's thigh. This is very inconvenient when removing the catheter. When the patient walks with the urine bag, the urine bag will swing and pull the catheter due to gravity. When walking, the clothes will constantly rub the catheter, which can easily cause the catheter to fall off, causing inconvenience to the patient's movement. When the patient sweats or encounters water, the tape will fail, which can easily cause the catheter to fall off; long-term contact between the tape and the skin will cause damage to the patient's skin.

[0003] The Chinese utility model patent CN211934989U published on November 17, 2020 discloses a device for fixing a urine collection bag and a urinary catheter, including: two straps formed by alternating the ends of inelastic sections and elastic sections, silicone bumps on the inelastic sections, a connecting strap, a swinging strap rotatably connected to the strap at one end, a bag placement box connected to the swinging strap, and a catheter clamp. This utility model still has shortcomings: the drainage tube of the urine bag is relatively long, and the drainage tube hanging by the leg is easily dragged and pulled, causing it to fall off.
