Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of acupoint bloodletting tools of traditional Chinese medicine, in particular to an auxiliary suction device for acupoint bloodletting therapy of traditional Chinese medicine. Background Art

[0002] The mechanism of bloodletting therapy is to adjust yin and yang, dredge meridians, harmonize qi and blood, and change the pathological changes of poor qi and blood flow in meridians, so as to achieve the effect of adjusting the qi and blood functions of the internal organs. Bloodletting therapy is a unique acupuncture treatment method within the scope of traditional Chinese medicine, and is one of the most commonly used treatment methods in traditional Chinese medicine. Bloodletting therapy has the effects of purging heat, reducing swelling, detoxifying, relieving pain, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and calming down. It can balance yin and yang, dredge meridians, remove evil and restore the body, and harmonize qi and blood. Clinically, it can treat gout, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, hypertension, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, limb numbness, spleen and stomach disharmony, heavy dampness, ophthalmology, skin diseases, andrology and gynecology, herpes zoster, acne, urticaria, headache, hemiplegia after stroke, lumbar disc herniation, cervical spondylosis, tennis elbow, bronchial asthma, sty, hiccups, trigeminal neuralgia, erysipelas and other diseases, and the treatment scope covers multiple medical fields such as internal medicine, pediatrics and gynecology.

[0003] Bloodletting therapy is to use needles to puncture specific acupuncture points or superficial blood vessels of the human body to release an appropriate amount of blood, and achieve the purpose of treatment by activating blood circulation and regulating qi. Traditional bloodletting therapy is to acupuncture acupuncture points or superficial blood vessels and let the blood flow out naturally. The amount of blood discharged in this way is small, which is mainly due to the hemostatic effect of platelets. Often, the blood discharge is too small to meet the treatment requirements. In the prior art, cupping is generally combined with bloodletting therapy, and negative pressure suction is performed through the principle of cupping. This method has high blood discharge efficiency and can meet the treatment requirements. However, due to the negative pressure in the cupping, the blood sucked into the cup cannot be discharged. When the cupping is removed, the blood sucked into the cup is easy to overflow or leak. Excessive blood overflow will pose a risk of contamination or cross infection, and it is also easy to contaminate the patient's clothes or bed sheets. Visually, the large amount of blood flowing out is also easy to cause panic in patients, such as hemophobia, etc. Therefore, it is very inconvenient to use and does not meet the requirements of hospital infection prevention and control.

[0016] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of the utility model, the drawings required for use in the embodiments are briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings described below are some embodiments of the utility model. For ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative work.

[0017] Please see Figure 1 or Figure 2 The embodiment of the utility model provides an auxiliary suction device for traditional Chinese medicine acupoint bloodletting therapy, comprising a suction cup 1 with an opening at one end and a negative pressure suction device 2 arranged at the other end of the suction cup 1 and connected to the inner cavity of the suction cup 1. The suction cup 1 is a cup body made of transparent material, and the open end of the suction cup 1 is used to be buckled on the acupuncture point for bloodletting or superficial blood vessels. The negative pressure suction device 2 is a vacuum cupping suction gun or a vacuum pump. The inner cavity of the suction cup 1 is negatively suctioned by the negative pressure suction device 2, so that the inner cavity of the suction cup 1 forms a negative pressure, forming an attraction force on the bloodletting position, and assisting the bloodletting position in blood discharge. A drainage hole connected to the inner cavity of the suction cup 1 is opened on the side wall of the suction cup 1, and the drainage hole is located on the lower side wall of the suction cup 1 and close to the open end of the suction cup 1. A syringe 3 connected to the drainage hole is arranged on the outer side of the suction cup 1, and the syringe 3 can extract and collect the blood discharged into the suction cup 1 through the drainage hole. When performing bloodletting therapy, after completing the acupuncture step, the suction cup 1 is directly placed on the acupuncture site, and the patient's body position is adjusted so that the acupuncture site is tilted, and the open end of the suction cup 1 is tilted downward, and the open end of the suction cup 1 is lower than the end where the negative pressure aspirator 2 is set, and the drainage hole is located on the lower side of the suction cup 1. At this time, the suction cup 1 is negatively suctioned by manually pulling the negative pressure aspirator 2. Under the action of negative pressure, the blood at the acupuncture site is discharged into the suction cup 1, and under the action of gravity, the blood flows to the drainage hole on the lower side. During the blood discharge process, medical staff can observe the bleeding situation through the transparent suction cup 1. When the blood gathers at the drainage hole of the suction cup 1, the blood at the drainage hole can be sucked by manually operating the syringe 3 to discharge the blood in the suction cup 1, thereby solving the problem of blood accumulation discharged into the suction cup 1 and avoiding the overflow or leakage of blood in the suction cup 1 when the suction cup 1 is removed.

[0018] Please continue to see Figure 1 or Figure 2Furthermore, in order to make the blood discharged into the suction cup 1 more concentrated and convenient for the syringe 3 to draw, the side wall of the suction cup 1 near its open end is recessed downward to form a liquid collecting groove 4. The liquid collecting groove 4 is in a trumpet shape, larger at the top and smaller at the bottom, and has the function of drainage and gathering. The drainage hole is opened at the bottom of the liquid collecting groove 4. During the blood discharge process, the blood is collected in the liquid collecting groove 4 under the action of gravity, which is convenient for the syringe 3 to draw.

[0019] Furthermore, a connecting conduit 5 may be provided between the drainage hole and the syringe 3. During actual operation, the syringe 3 may be directly plugged into the drainage hole, or may be interconnected with the drainage hole through the connecting conduit 5, so as to facilitate the separation operation of the syringe 3 and the suction tank 1.

[0020] Furthermore, in order to prevent the blood sucked into the syringe 3 from flowing back when the suction cup 1 is under negative pressure, a one-way valve 6 is provided on the connecting catheter 5 or the drainage hole. The one-way valve 6 limits the blood flow direction at the drainage hole to prevent the blood sucked into the syringe 3 from flowing into the suction cup 1 again.

[0021] Furthermore, the syringe 3 uses a 20ml or 50ml empty syringe, which can be selected according to the amount of bloodletting. There are scale lines on the side wall of the syringe 3. When the empty syringe 3 is used to suck the blood discharged into the suction cup 1, it can play a metering role, so that medical staff can grasp the amount of bloodletting in time.

[0022] Furthermore, a pressure relief valve 7 is provided at the interface between the suction cup 1 and the negative pressure suction device 2. When the amount of blood let down reaches the standard, the pressure of the suction cup 1 can be relieved through the pressure relief valve 7.

[0023] When the device is used for bloodletting therapy, after the acupuncture step is completed, the open end cover of the suction cup 1 is directly placed on the acupuncture site, and the drainage hole is located on the lower side of the suction cup 1. The suction cup 1 is negatively suctioned by manually operating the negative pressure suction device 2, and the acupuncture site is sucked by the negative pressure to discharge the blood at the acupuncture site into the suction cup 1. After the blood flows to the drainage hole under the action of gravity, the syringe 3 can be manually pulled out at this time, and the blood at the drainage hole is sucked by the syringe 3 to discharge the blood in the suction cup 1, thereby solving the problem of blood congestion discharged into the suction cup 1 and avoiding the overflow or leakage of blood in the suction cup 1 when the suction cup 1 is removed, thereby reducing the risk of contamination or cross infection caused by excessive blood overflow, and also avoiding the problem of inconvenient cleaning caused by excessive blood overflow.

[0024] The above disclosure is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it certainly cannot be used to limit the scope of the present invention. A person skilled in the art can understand that all or part of the processes of the above embodiments and equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention still fall within the scope of the present invention.
