Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vaginal care appliances, in particular to a cleaning brush for vaginal medication residues. Background Art

[0002] In vitro fertilization treatment requires pituitary down-regulation. After down-regulation, corpus luteum function is inhibited, affecting embryo implantation. In order to promote embryo implantation after embryo transplantation, most patients need to use drugs to help implant the embryo. Previous treatment methods were intramuscular injection of progesterone and oral progesterone for luteal support. Currently, vaginal suppositories such as serotonin are used. The success rate of vaginal suppositories after transplantation is the same as that of intramuscular injection of progesterone. However, if the vaginal suppository is not performed properly, it will not only affect physical health, but also affect the effectiveness of the drug.

[0003] However, vaginal suppositories may not be completely absorbed by the patient's body, and residues (mostly in the form of tofu dregs) will be left inside the patient's vagina. In response to this situation, patients are currently instructed to use their hands to remove the residues themselves while ensuring hygiene, so that patients can clean up the drug residues at home. It is conceivable that when patients use their hands to clean up vaginal residues by themselves, firstly, it is inconvenient for personal operation, and secondly, incomplete hand washing will pose serious health risks, which can easily cause vaginal infection and other complications.

[0004] Based on this, it is extremely important to provide a brush for cleaning the residue after vaginal medication that is convenient for patients to operate. Utility Model Content

[0024] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model.

[0025] Clinically, after a patient undergoes in vitro fertilization and embryo implantation, vaginal suppositories are usually used to supplement progesterone to stabilize embryo implantation. However, more than 90% of patients cannot fully absorb the drug, which will form drug residues inside their vagina. Currently, most patients use their fingers to clean it. Taking into account the inconvenience and hygienic risks of patients using their fingers to clean, the applicant has designed a cleaning brush with a silicone brush head. This cleaning brush can be used with flushing during use, so that the drug residues can be cleaned out more thoroughly. Example

[0026] Reference Figure 1-6 The utility model is a cleaning brush for vaginal medication residues, comprising a brush body 1 and a flushing component, wherein the flushing component is connected to the holding end of the brush body 1. The patient holds the brush body 1 and presses the flushing component, and water is transported to the cleaning end of the brush body 1 through the flushing component. The cleaning end of the brush body 1 is extended into the patient's vagina to clean the medication residues after medication.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the brush body 1 includes a brush head 2 and a hollow brush handle 3. The hollow brush handle 3 is made of medical hard plastic, such as PE, PVC, etc. The interior of the hollow brush handle 3 is a through hole. The length of the brush head 2 is 2~3cm. The cleaning end of the brush head 2 and the hollow brush handle 3 are detachably connected, which is convenient for periodic replacement of the brush head 2. The flushing component is detachably connected to the holding end of the hollow brush handle 3, and the two can be disassembled and stored when not in use.

[0028] More specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the brush head 2 includes an inner column 4 and an outer brush member 5. The outer brush member 5 is made of silicone and is fixedly bonded to the outside of the inner column 4. The top of the outer brush member 5 is arc-shaped to avoid causing trauma when inserted into the patient's vagina. The inner column is made of the same material as the hollow brush handle 3. The proximal end of the inner column 4 is integrally formed with a connecting rod 6, which is detachably connected to the hollow brush handle 3 through the connecting rod 6. In this embodiment, the connecting rod 6 and the hollow brush handle 3 are plugged or screwed, so that the brush head 2 can be replaced after the brush head 2 has been used for a period of time, which is conducive to saving resources and costs; at the same time, a cavity 7 is opened in the inner column 4, and the cavity 7 extends out of the rod body of the connecting rod 6. A plurality of water outlet holes 8 are provided on the inner column 4, and each water outlet hole 8 is communicated with the cavity 7. In this embodiment, the water outlet holes 8 are provided in two rows and are distributed along the length direction of the inner column 4. Figure 4 As shown, there are 4 drainage holes in each row.

[0029] In order to make the brush head have a larger contact area when it enters the patient's vagina for cleaning, Figure 3-4 As shown, the angle between the inner column 4 and the connecting rod 6 is set to 160°~170°. When the brush head 2 is connected to the hollow brush handle 3 and inserted into the vagina and rotated, the outer brush part 5 rotates and closely contacts the inner wall of the vagina, effectively cleaning the residue inside the vagina.

[0030] A plurality of bristles 9 are circumferentially distributed on the outer wall of the outer brush member 5. The bristles 9 are made of the same material as the outer brush member 5. Figure 3 , Figure 5-6 As shown, in order to avoid discomfort when the brush is inserted into the patient's vagina, the multiple bristles 9 are arranged at an angle. The multiple bristles 9 can effectively assist the external brush to more thoroughly remove the drug residues attached to the inner wall of the vagina.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the flushing assembly includes a water bag 10, a water pipe 11 and a container 12. The water outlet of the water bag 10 is detachably connected to the end of the hollow brush handle 3. Preferably, the water bag 10 is connected to the hollow brush handle 3 by plugging or screwing. The water inlet of the water bag 10 is connected to the water pipe 11. The length of the water pipe 11 is sufficient to meet the length used by the patient. The other end of the water pipe 11 is connected to the container 12. The container 12 contains clean water or cleaning liquid. A one-way valve (not shown in the figure) is installed at the water inlet of the water bag 10. The one-way valve here only allows the liquid in the container 12 to enter the water bag 10. Example

[0032] A brush for cleaning vaginal medication residues, when actually used:

[0033] The patient adopts a side-lying position, holds the gripping end of the hollow brush handle 3, and slowly inserts the brush head 2 into the vagina. After the brush head is inserted, the hollow brush handle 3 is first slowly pulled outward to clean out some drug residues, and then the hollow brush handle 3 is slowly rotated and the water bag 10 is squeezed synchronously, so that the liquid enters the cavity 7 in the brush head 2 through the through hole of the hollow brush handle 3 and is sprayed out from the water outlet 8, and the bristles 9 are used to clean the drug residues on the inner wall of the vagina, so that the drug residues are flushed out of the patient's vagina, thereby achieving the purpose of thoroughly cleaning the drug residues in the patient's vagina.

[0034] It should be clear that the above detailed description of the embodiments of the utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the utility model claimed for protection, but merely represents selected embodiments of the utility model. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
