Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a PICC waterproof protective sleeve and belongs to the technical field of medical protective products and clinical teaching aids. Background Art

[0002] PICC refers to a peripheral venous catheter inserted into the patient's vein. It is an infusion route that can be left in place for a long time and is safe to use. It provides great convenience for patients who require medium- and long-term continuous intravenous infusion and medication (such as chemotherapy, nutrient solution, etc.). INS (American Intravenous Nursing Society) points out that the best position for the tip of the PICC catheter is the lower 1 / 3 of the superior vena cava or the intersection of the superior vena cava and the right atrium.

[0003] PICC catheters can be left in place for a long time, which will have a certain impact on the patient's normal daily life. If they are not properly operated and maintained during the indwelling period, PICC-related complications may occur, including catheter blockage, displacement or rupture, thrombosis and infection.

[0004] The waterproof problem is particularly troublesome to patients. For example, when patients take a bath, their arms will inevitably come into contact with water, and they cannot take a bath in a tub but can only take a shower. Therefore, once water flows to the PICC catheter and puncture site, it will lead to risks such as puncture site infection. Based on the existing waterproof sleeve technology, it is inconvenient for patients to put on and take off. The tightness is affected by the patient's arm circumference and product design. Too tight will affect venous return, and too loose will cause water to penetrate. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a waterproof sleeve that is easy to put on and take off and has a good sealing effect. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is: to address the deficiencies of the existing technology, the utility model provides a PICC waterproof protection sleeve, which can help patients improve the waterproof effect and comfort during showering and reduce the occurrence of catheterization complications; at the same time, it can be used to help patients experience possible water seepage before catheterization, so as to improve their self-management ability to prevent water seepage during bathing.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides a PICC waterproof protection sleeve, which includes two sections of elastic cuff sleeves, and a transparent waterproof layer arranged between the two sections of the elastic cuff sleeves; wherein the elastic cuff sleeve is a double-layer structure, which includes an outer waterproof rubber layer and an inner absorbent cotton layer.

[0007] Preferably, the transparent waterproof layer is provided with water-absorbing color-changing test paper warning strips on both sides close to the elastic cuff, which warns of water seepage during the use stage and helps patients understand the operations that may cause water seepage during bathing during the experience stage.

[0008] Preferably, the structure of the water-absorbent cotton layer is set to a sponge mesh structure.

[0009] Preferably, the edge of the elastic cuff is provided with a silicone edge seal.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0011] (1) The utility model provides a PICC waterproof protective sleeve, which is suitable for patients with different arm circumferences and is easy to put on and take off; the waterproof protective sleeve has a two-layer waterproof design. The sleeve cuff is made of rubber material to achieve a close fit with the skin, thus realizing the first effective waterproof function; the inner layer of the sleeve is attached with absorbent cotton to absorb water seepage, thus preventing liquid from directly seeping into the catheter during showering, thus realizing the second waterproof function;

[0012] (2) The utility model provides a PICC waterproof protective sleeve with a water-absorbing color-changing test paper warning strip, which can serve as a water seepage warning function; the waterproof protective sleeve is convenient for patients to observe water seepage. By observing the color change of the water-absorbing color-changing test paper warning strip, it can help patients to promptly discover whether there is water ingress at the catheter placement site to avoid further deterioration of the situation; in the experience stage, it can help patients understand the operations that may cause water seepage during bathing by observing whether there is water seepage.

[0013] (3) The utility model provides a PICC waterproof protective sleeve, which has two major functions: a waterproof bathing experience before PICC catheterization and a waterproof function during actual application. The overall design conforms to human ergonomics, does not affect the patient's normal activities and exertion, and does not destroy the patient's comfort state. The waterproof protective sleeve can be used as a practical clinical protection for PICC patients, which can help patients improve the waterproof effect and comfort during showering and reduce the occurrence of catheterization complications. At the same time, it can also be used as a teaching aid for simulation experience training during clinical technical personnel training, helping patients understand daily care knowledge such as the waterproof experience after catheterization. As an auxiliary teaching aid for medical teaching and health education, it helps to improve the quality and effect of clinical teaching and health education. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0016] In order to make the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, preferred embodiments are described in detail as follows in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0017] Example

[0018] This embodiment provides a PICC waterproof protection sleeve, such as Figure 1As shown, the PICC waterproof protective sleeve includes elastic cuffs at both ends, namely, an upper elastic cuff 1, a lower elastic cuff 2, and a transparent waterproof layer 3 in the middle. The elastic cuffs 1 and 2 at both ends are double-layered, with the outer layer made of elastic waterproof rubber material, the inner layer made of absorbent cotton material, and the edge of the elastic cuff is provided with a silicone sealing 5, that is, the edge of the elastic cuff is sealed with a silicone material; the transparent waterproof layer 3 in the middle is made of transparent plastic waterproof material;

[0019] In this embodiment, water-absorbing color-changing test paper warning strips 4 are respectively provided on both sides of the transparent waterproof layer close to the elastic cuffs 1 and 2 at both ends.

[0020] In this embodiment, the inner water-absorbent cotton layer adopts a sponge mesh structure.

[0021] Before the patient takes a shower, the waterproof protective sleeve of the utility model is put on the catheter placement site to ensure that the catheter puncture point is completely covered by the middle transparent waterproof layer 3 and is located in the middle of the transparent waterproof layer 3, while ensuring that the elastic cuffs 1 and 2 at both ends effectively fit the skin.

[0022] During showering, the waterproof function can be achieved through the two-layer protection design (bundle part, absorbent cotton). Water seepage can be observed by observing whether the water-absorbing color-changing test paper warning strip 4 changes color. If the test paper changes color, the shower should be stopped in time to reduce the possibility of water entering the catheterization site, thereby reducing the incidence of PICC catheterization complications.

[0023] The utility model of waterproof protective sleeve can be used for bathing waterproof experience of patients who plan to undergo PICC catheterization. It can also be actually used for PICC patients to wear waterproof sleeves during showering, helping patients to better understand the key points of PICC catheterization care in showering and improve their self-management ability.

[0024] In addition, the utility model design can also be used as a medical teaching aid, and used in medical schools and clinical teaching, to help medical staff better understand the self-maintenance after PICC catheterization, and improve the quality and effect of clinical teaching and clinical health education.

[0025] The above-mentioned implementation cases are only preferred implementation cases of the present utility model, and are not any formal and substantial limitations of the present utility model. It should be pointed out that ordinary technicians in this technical field can make several improvements and supplements without departing from the present utility model, and these improvements and supplements should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present utility model.
