Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular relates to a vomit collection device for bedridden patients. Background Art

[0002] It is common for patients to vomit. When patients vomit, medical staff and their families usually use spittoons, plastic buckets or vomit bags to collect vomit. For some bedridden patients, the above method is not suitable for use in bed. During vomiting, the vomitus can easily flow down the cheeks due to the low contact between the container and the skin, soiling the patient's body and clothes, increasing the patient's discomfort and increasing the burden of care. At the same time, for gastroenterology patients, medical staff need to record the amount of vomitus, and sometimes need to take samples of vomitus for component analysis to monitor the patient's condition. Traditional methods are not conducive to medical staff observing the amount of vomitus and taking samples.

[0003] A Chinese utility model patent, granted with publication number CN213852098U, discloses a device for conveniently collecting patient vomitus. The device comprises a collection tray and a collection device. The collection device includes a diversion tube and a collection portion. The collection portion includes a collection cavity, and the diversion tube is connected to the collection cavity of the collection portion. The collection tray has an upwardly opening groove formed in the middle, and an extension formed around the groove. The lower end of the groove is continuous and connected to the end of the diversion tube away from the collection portion. This device can collect vomitus from bedridden patients to measure the amount of vomit while avoiding soiling the patient's body and clothing. However, if the patient's vomitus is sampled and tested, directly discharging waste liquids such as mouthwash into the collection cavity will affect the test results. If other open containers are used to collect waste liquids such as mouthwash, the open containers will emit odors, affecting the air quality in the ward. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide a vomit collection device for bedridden patients, so as to solve the problem that other waste liquids such as mouthwash after vomiting by bedridden patients need to be collected in other open containers, which easily emit odor and stain the patient's body and clothes.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solutions adopted by the present utility model are as follows:

[0006] A vomit collection device for bedridden patients comprises a funnel, a collection container, and a first drainage pipe connecting the funnel and the collection container. The curvature of the edge of the top of the funnel that contacts the face matches the curvature of the human face, and the bottom of the funnel is connected to the first drainage pipe. The device also includes a sampling container and a second drainage pipe. One end of the second drainage pipe is connected to the sampling container and is detachably connected to the sampling container, and the other end is connected to the first drainage pipe, dividing the first drainage pipe into an upper half and a lower half. The lower half of the first drainage pipe is provided with a valve.

[0007] The upper half of the first flow guide pipe, the lower half of the first flow guide pipe and the second flow guide pipe are connected via a three-way joint.

[0008] As a limitation, the upper half of the first flow guide pipe and the second flow guide pipe are made of flexible materials.

[0009] As a second limitation, the sewage collecting container includes a sewage collecting barrel body and a cover body that are detachably connected. The cover body is provided with an accommodating hole for accommodating the second flow guide pipe, and the accommodating hole is hinged with a hole plug.

[0016] (2) The upper half of the first drainage tube in the present invention is made of a flexible material, which makes it convenient for bedridden patients to adjust the position of the funnel so that the funnel fits the patient's face;

[0017] (3) The utility model provides a receiving hole for accommodating the second guide tube on the cover of the sewage collection container. After the patient's vomitus is collected, the second guide tube can be inserted into the receiving hole to prevent the vomitus from dripping outside the sewage collection container. At the same time, the hinged hole plug on the receiving hole can seal the receiving hole when it is not in use to prevent the spread of odor.

[0018] (4) A first observation window made of a transparent material is provided on the side wall of the sewage collection container in the present invention, which facilitates the nursing staff to observe the liquid level position in the sewage collection container and clean the sewage collection container in time;

Except for the part of the top edge of the funnel 1 that contacts the human face, the remaining edges are provided with an extended baffle 11 that extends obliquely upward. The bottom end of the funnel 1 is connected to the sewage collecting container 2 through the first guide tube 3. The first guide tube 3 includes an upper half section 31 of the first guide tube connected to the funnel 1 and a lower half section 32 of the first guide tube connected to the sewage collecting container 2. One end of the second guide tube 4 is connected to the sampling container 6, and the other end is connected to the upper half section 31 of the first guide tube. A plastic ball valve 33 is provided on the lower half section 32 of the first guide tube; the upper half section 31 of the first guide tube, the lower half section 32 of the first guide tube and the second guide tube 4 are connected by a three-way joint 5 and are detachably connected. The upper half section 31 of the first guide tube and the second guide tube 4 adopt PVC hoses, and the lower half section 32 of the first guide tube adopts PVC hard pipes.

[0029] Specifically, the waste collection container 2 comprises a detachably connected waste collection bucket body 21 and a lid 22. The waste collection bucket body 21 is made of opaque plastic to ensure aesthetics and avoid causing discomfort. A first observation window 26 made of transparent plastic is provided on the sidewall of the waste collection bucket body 21. The waste collection bucket body 21 is also provided with a handle 25. The lid 22 is provided with a circular receiving hole 23 for accommodating the second flow guide tube 4, and a plug 24 is hingedly connected to the receiving hole 23.

The second flow guide tube 4 and the sampling container 6 are detachably connected.

[0030] Working Principle of This Embodiment: This embodiment can collect vomitus and waste liquid generated by gargling, etc. of bedridden patients. Because medical staff need to monitor the amount of vomitus produced by patients, when collecting the patient's vomitus, it is necessary to close the plastic ball valve 33 to collect the patient's vomitus into the sampling container 6. After the patient finishes vomiting, the plastic ball valve 33 is opened, and the waste liquid generated by the patient's gargling is directly discharged into the waste collection container 2, without the need to replace another container for collection.

[0031] Medical staff can observe the amount of vomitus produced by the patient through the second observation window 61 and record it according to the scale line 62. After recording, the nurse removes the sampling container 6, opens the hole plug 24, and inserts the second drainage tube 4 into the receiving hole 23 to prevent the residual vomitus in the second drainage tube 4 from dripping and contaminating the surrounding environment. Medical staff can take samples of the vomitus collected in the sampling container 6 for testing as needed. After cleaning, the sampling container 6 can be installed on the second drainage tube 4 for future use. Waste liquid generated by subsequent actions such as rinsing the patient's mouth can continue to be discharged into the sewage collection container 2. The nurse observes the liquid level in the sewage collection container 2 through the first observation window 26 and cleans the sewage collection container 2 in a timely manner.
