Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of teaching tools, and specifically relates to a hemodialysis catheter simulation teaching device. Background Art
[0002] Hemodialysis is a common method of blood purification, which involves draining the patient's blood, removing toxins from the body through a blood purifier, and then returning the purified blood to the body. The indwelling hemodialysis catheter needs to undergo a catheter function assessment before use to determine whether it is unobstructed. Although medical staff will inject anticoagulants into the indwelling catheter to seal the catheter to maintain its patency, individual differences, prolonged catheterization, and improper patient activity may still lead to blood clots in the indwelling catheter. In clinical practice, the blood in the indwelling catheter needs to be drawn out and injected onto gauze to observe whether blood clots or blood foam appear to determine whether the patient's indwelling line is unobstructed. In addition, daily maintenance of the catheter also requires flushing and sealing operations.
[0003] However, the teaching and training of this process and the practice of trainees are not suitable for demonstration or operation on real patients. The existing teaching methods are usually oral explanations or the use of saline bags to simulate the suction of catheters. However, saline bags cannot simulate the difference between blocked or unobstructed indwelling catheters, and cannot simulate the blood flow of human blood vessels. When using saline bags for flushing or sealing operations, they cannot simulate the real situation, which is a poor experience and is not conducive to teaching.
[0004] Based on this, we propose a hemodialysis catheter simulation teaching device. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a hemodialysis catheter simulation teaching device, which can add blood clot dummy samples as needed and maintain a good sense of blood flow while sampling, which is conducive to the rapid practice of catheter function evaluation, flushing or sealing operations during hemodialysis teaching.
[0006] The technical solutions adopted in this utility are as follows:
[0007] A hemodialysis catheter simulation teaching device comprises a human body partial model, a vascular circuit model is embedded and installed inside the human body partial model, two openings of the vascular circuit model both extend out of the human body partial model, and a micro pump is connected and fixed between the two openings, a hemodialysis catheter is arranged on the human body partial model, the hemodialysis catheter is in a "Y" shape, wherein the insertion end extends downward into the pipeline of the vascular circuit model inside the human body partial model and is connected with the pipeline of the vascular circuit model, a sample adding tube is connected and fixed at the insertion tube facing downward of the hemodialysis catheter, a sealing mechanism is arranged on the sample adding tube, the sample adding tube is located outside the human body partial model, and a soft rubber nozzle is connected and fixed at the outer edge.
[0008] The sealing mechanism comprises a piston cylinder integrally connected with the sample adding tube, the piston cylinder and the sample adding tube are vertically arranged and communicated with each other, and a plunger is inserted axially inside, and the plunger is a cylindrical structure with a through hole in the middle.
[0009] The side wall of the plunger is interference fit with the piston cylinder.
[0010] A push rod is axially fixed at one end of the plunger, and the other end of the push rod extends axially out of the piston cylinder and is disc-shaped. The plunger can be moved by pushing the push rod outside the piston cylinder by hand, which makes it convenient for the through hole to be aligned with or staggered with the sample tube without inserting the hand into the piston cylinder.
[0011] A return spring is fixed to one end of the plunger away from the push rod. The return spring extends axially inside the piston cylinder and the other end of the return spring is fixed to the inner wall of the piston cylinder.
[0012] The clamping sleeve below the piston cylinder is provided with a concave support which is fixedly connected with the human body partial model.
[0013] The technical effects achieved by this utility model are:
[0014] This is a practical hemodialysis catheter simulation teaching device. During hemodialysis simulation teaching, the blood flow is simulated through a vascular circuit model and a pump. A sample tube is opened on the hemodialysis catheter to add a blood clot pseudo-colloid, so as to simulate the blockage of the hemodialysis catheter due to blood clots.

[0021] In order to make the purpose and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is specifically described below in conjunction with the embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is only used to describe one or several specific implementations of the present invention, and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically requested by the present invention.
[0022] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a hemodialysis catheter simulation teaching device includes a human body local model 1, the human body local model 1 is used to simulate a human neck or arm, the human body local model 1 is composed of two half models that are mutually clamped, a vascular circuit model 2 is embedded and installed inside the human body local model 1, two openings of the vascular circuit model 2 extend out of the human body local model 1, and a micro pump 3 is connected and fixed between the two openings to simulate the blood flow in the blood vessel, a hemodialysis catheter 4 is arranged on the human body local model 1, and the hemodialysis catheter 4 is in a "Y" shape, wherein the insertion end of the hemodialysis catheter 4 extends downward into the vascular circuit model 2 inside the human body local model 1 The inside of the pipeline is connected with the pipeline of the vascular circuit model 2, which is used to simulate the real scene of the hemodialysis catheter 4 being inserted into the human blood vessel. The other two ends of the hemodialysis catheter 4 are located outside the local human model. The design of the other two ends of the hemodialysis catheter 4 is consistent with the structure of the external end of the existing hemodialysis catheter, and the other two ends of the hemodialysis catheter 4 are provided with liquid stop clamps to facilitate the simulation of flushing and sealing operations. The downward insertion tube of the hemodialysis catheter 4 is connected and fixed with a sample adding tube 5, and a sealing mechanism is provided on the sample adding tube 5. The sample adding tube 5 is located outside the local human model 1 and the outer edge is connected and fixed with a soft rubber nozzle 6.
[0023] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the sealing mechanism includes a piston cylinder 7 integrally connected to the sample tube 5. The piston cylinder 7 and the sample tube 5 are vertically arranged and connected to each other, and a plunger 9 is axially inserted inside. The plunger 9 is a cylindrical structure with a through hole 8 in the middle. The plunger 9 is moved until the through hole 8 partially overlaps with the sample tube 5 to open the sample tube 5. Otherwise, the through hole and the sample tube 5 are offset, and the plunger 8 closes the sample tube 5.
[0024] The plunger 9 is made of rubber material 9 , and the side wall of the plunger 9 is interference fit with the piston cylinder 7 .
[0025] A push rod 10 is axially fixed at one end of the plunger 9, and the other end of the push rod 10 extends axially out of the piston cylinder 7 and is disc-shaped. The plunger 9 can be moved by pushing the push rod 10 outside the piston cylinder 7 by hand, so that the through hole 8 is facing or staggered with the sample tube 5.
[0026] A return spring 11 is fixed to one end of the plunger 9 away from the push rod 10. The return spring 11 can be made of medical grade stainless steel.

When in use, first push the push rod 10 to drive the plunger 9 to move toward the return spring 11 and compress the return spring 11 until the through hole 8 and the sample tube 5 at least partially overlap, and then the blood clot pseudo-sample colloid can be injected through the soft rubber nozzle 6. Release the push rod 10, the return spring 11 stretches and pushes the plunger 9 to make the through hole 8 offset from the piston cylinder 7, so as to automatically close the sample tube 5.
[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, there is a concave support 12 fixedly connected to the human body partial model 1 in the clamping sleeve below the piston cylinder 7. The concave support 12 supports the piston cylinder 7 upward, which is convenient for instructors and students to use.
