Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical supplies, in particular to a perineum cleaning device. Background Art

[0002] Postoperative patients, disabled patients, and pregnant women who are unable to bathe require assistance from nursing staff for bed bathing and perineal cleansing. Perineal cleansing requires high cleanliness standards. Because patients' immune systems are weakened during this period, ascending infections are more likely to occur, increasing the incidence of related diseases. Furthermore, poor cleanliness and comfort after cleansing can lead to decreased patient satisfaction.

[0003] However, due to the shortage of nursing staff in China, the heavy workload, and the fact that perineal scrubbing is a private operation, most nurses, for reasons of embarrassment, simply wipe it with wet wipes; or soak several disposable soft towels or small towels in a basin of warm water for cleaning. Sometimes, only one small towel is used for the entire operation, while some use several soft towels for cleaning. Although the soft towels are changed each time, the hands of nurses, whether wearing gloves or not, have already come into contact with the patient's skin and body fluids. Failure to change gloves or wash hands again will increase the incidence of cross-infection and inadequate perineal skin cleaning. Secondly, due to the cluttered clinical work environment and the lack of responsibility of nursing staff, the accuracy and implementation of hand hygiene are common problems, which will increase the incidence of hospital-acquired infections.
