Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of urinary catheters, in particular to a urinary catheter for patients with urethral malformation and stricture. Background Art

[0002] It is known that urethral stricture and malformation refer to mechanical lumen abnormalities and malformations in any part of the urethra, which cause micturition disorders due to increased resistance in the urethra and are more common in men. The main causes of urethral stricture in developed and developing countries are different. The most common cause of urethral stricture and malformation in developed countries is congenital stricture (41%), followed by iatrogenic (35%). Due to high rates of road traffic injuries and backward trauma management systems, trauma (36%) has become the most common cause in developing countries. Multicenter surveys in China show that urethral stricture caused by trauma accounts for 54.0% in China. Urethral stricture occurring after male urethral injury not only brings great pain to patients, but also imposes a heavy economic burden on families and society. Therefore, how to prevent urethral stricture and malformation after male urethral injury is an important and urgent issue in clinical urology. Then urinary catheters emerged. However, for existing urinary catheters, they generally contain guide wires inside. For example, the Chinese utility model patent with the authorization announcement number CN216294954U discloses a guide wire pre-embedded urinary catheter, including a urinary catheter and a guide wire. The top of the urinary catheter is set to be arc-shaped, and a guide wire insertion hole is arranged inside the top of the urinary catheter. A guiding surface for guiding the insertion of the guide wire is arranged at the inner top of the urinary catheter. The guide wire insertion hole and the guide wire are in clearance fit. The guide wire is inserted into the urinary catheter. The guide wire is composed of a guide wire body and a smooth coating wrapped on the outer surface of the guide wire body. It can be seen that there is still a guide wire in the existing technology, and the guide wire is used to guide the insertion into the bladder for temporary urinary catheterization. However, this method will cause varying degrees of damage to the patient's urethra when catheterizing patients with urinary retention, especially for patients with urethral malformation and stricture, the recovery period is longer, and it will also cause certain damage, which is not conducive to the rehabilitation and use of patients.
