[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a long-term catheter tunnel flushing device for hemodialysis, comprising a base 1, which is a semicircular structure. A ring-shaped adhesive tape 101 is arranged around the edge of the base 1 and is adhered and fixed to the patient's body surface. An opening for a corresponding flushing position is opened at the center of the base 1, and a movable cylinder 2 is movably installed in the opening. A flushing cylinder 4 is rotatably installed on the inner thread of the movable cylinder 2. A needle 401 extending out of the lower end surface of the base 1 is fixed to the lower end of the flushing cylinder 4, and a top cover 402 is rotatably installed on the top of the flushing cylinder 4. A liquid extraction tube 5 and a liquid catheter 6 are respectively connected to the two sides of the top cover 402, wherein the end of the liquid extraction tube 5 away from the flushing cylinder 4 is equipped with a negative pressure device, and the end of the liquid catheter 6 away from the flushing cylinder 4 is equipped with a syringe 7, so that flushing liquid can be injected into the catheter tunnel through the syringe 7 and the liquid catheter 6, and after flushing, the flushing waste liquid is discharged through the liquid extraction tube 5 connected to the negative pressure device.
