Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to a magnetic navigation non-invasive peritoneal dialysis catheter resetting device. Background Art

[0002] Peritoneal dialysis catheters are an important medical device used in peritoneal dialysis treatment. Peritoneal dialysis is an effective renal replacement therapy for end-stage renal disease, and peritoneal dialysis catheters are the "lifeline" of peritoneal dialysis patients. Currently, the disadvantages of existing peritoneal dialysis catheters are: (1) the intra-abdominal section is relatively light and will float when left in the peritoneal cavity and soaked in peritoneal dialysis fluid; (2) the distal opening is relatively large, and the impact of high-speed fluid inflow / outflow may cause reverse displacement; (3) strenuous activities such as lifting heavy objects, squatting, constipation, and continuous coughing by patients increase the probability of catheter displacement.

[0003] When the intra-abdominal segment of a peritoneal dialysis catheter deviates, guidewires and endoscopic brushes are commonly used to reposition it. However, their disadvantages are: (1) it is difficult to pass a double guidewire through a narrow catheter, and even more difficult to remove; (2) external force repositioning the catheter is not accurate; and (3) the procedure must be performed under X-ray fluoroscopy, exposing the operator to radiation. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention discloses a magnetic navigation non-invasive peritoneal dialysis catheter resetting device.

[0005] The specific plan is as follows:

[0006] A magnetic navigation non-invasive peritoneal dialysis catheter repositioning device is characterized by comprising a guide wire and a neodymium magnet. The guide wire is movably inserted into the peritoneal dialysis catheter, with its end extending from the end of the intra-abdominal section of the peritoneal dialysis catheter and naturally bent into a J-shaped head. The outer side of the J-shaped head is coated with a magnetic layer for generating magnetic force between it and the neodymium magnet.

[0007] As a further improvement of the present invention, the magnetic layer is a ferroferric oxide magnetic layer.

[0008] As a further improvement of the present invention, the guide wire is a nickel-titanium alloy guide wire.

[0009] As a further improvement of the present invention, the neodymium magnet is a disc-shaped structure with an observation hole provided in the center.

[0010] As a further improvement of the present invention, the peritoneal dialysis catheter is outer-coated with two polyester sleeves.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0012] (1) The intra-abdominal section of the guidewire is a hardened nickel-titanium alloy guidewire with good torque control, which can easily pass through the bend of the catheter;

[0013] (2) Shape memory: the end of the guidewire naturally bends into a "J" shape after extending from the catheter, which can not only increase the surface area but also avoid damaging the surrounding tissues and facilitate ultrasound positioning;

[0014] (3) The “J”-shaped surface coating is made of ferroferric oxide magnetic material, which can drive the catheter to move under the magnetic force of the neodymium magnet;

[0015] (4) The external part is a round neodymium magnet with an observation hole in the center to facilitate observation of its positioning on the abdominal skin during movement. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the following specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0020] As shown in the figure, the present invention provides a magnetic navigation non-invasive peritoneal dialysis catheter repositioning device, comprising a guidewire 1 and a neodymium magnet 2. The guidewire 1 is movably positioned within a peritoneal dialysis catheter 4, with its distal end extending from the intra-abdominal end of the peritoneal dialysis catheter 4 and naturally bending to form a J-shaped head 3. The outer surface of the J-shaped head 3 is coated with a magnetic layer to generate magnetic force between it and the neodymium magnet 2. If the catheter shifts within the patient's body, the external neodymium magnet attracts the J-shaped head and moves it, thereby repositioning the intra-abdominal section of the catheter.

[0021] In this embodiment, the magnetic layer is a ferroferric oxide magnetic layer.

[0022] In this embodiment, the guide wire 1 is a nickel-titanium alloy guide wire.

[0023] In this embodiment, the neodymium magnet 3 is a disc-shaped structure with an observation hole provided at the center.
