Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of chest cavity closed drainage, in particular to an improved chest cavity closed drainage device. Background Art
[0002] Closed chest drainage is widely used in the drainage of hemothorax, pneumothorax, empyema and after thoracotomy to drain the gas and liquid in the chest cavity, reestablish the negative pressure in the pleural cavity and promote lung re-expansion. Figure 1 As shown, it includes a first drainage tube on the upper side, a connector is fixedly provided on the top of the first drainage tube, the bottom of the first drainage tube is fixedly connected to the upper opening of the vertical tee, a second drainage tube is provided below the tee, the top of the second drainage tube is connected to the lower opening of the tee through a joint, an end cap 21 is provided at the side opening of the tee, the lower end of the second drainage tube is connected to the drainage bottle, an air filter plug is provided on the top of the drainage bottle, and a drain pipe is provided at the bottom of one side of the drainage bottle.
[0003] The above-mentioned drainage device can discharge the gas and liquid in the chest cavity. However, when the conventional chest closed drainage device is blocked, it is usually necessary to use a syringe to connect the side opening of the tee to perform negative pressure suction to prevent blockage. Every time the side opening of the tee is connected to a syringe for negative pressure suction, the end cap 21 needs to be unscrewed. After the end cap 21 is unscrewed, the third joint is in an open state, which makes it easy for bacteria and viruses to enter and cause infection in the patient. In addition, there is no switch on the drainage pipeline, which is not convenient for handling when the drainage is blocked. There is no anti-bending structure on the drainage tube, and the drainage tube may be bent and cut off. Utility Model Content
[0004] In response to the shortcomings of the existing technology, the utility model provides an improved closed chest drainage device. The device is equipped with an extended suction structure at the three-way side opening to prevent bacteria from entering through the opening. It is also equipped with a switch and an anti-bending structure to prevent pressure and control the opening and closing of the drainage tube, effectively solving the problems raised in the background technology.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: an improved closed chest drainage device, comprising a first drainage tube on the upper side, a connector fixedly provided at the top of the first drainage tube, a bottom of the first drainage tube fixedly connected to the upper opening of a vertical tee, a second drainage tube provided below the tee, the top of the second drainage tube connected to the lower opening of the tee via a connector, the lower end of the second drainage tube connected to a drainage bottle, an air filter plug provided at the top of the drainage bottle, a drain pipe provided at the bottom of one side of the drainage bottle, the side opening of the tee fixedly connected to one end of an extension tube, and a heparin cap provided at the outer end of the extension tube;
[0006] The extension pipe is provided with a stop valve;
[0007] The first drainage tube is provided with a roller adjustment switch.
[0008] As a preferred technical solution, both the first drainage tube and the second drainage tube are provided with an anti-bending structure.
[0009] As a preferred technical solution, the anti-bending structure includes hard rings fixedly sleeved on the first drainage tube and the second drainage tube at intervals.
[0010] As a preferred technical solution, the damping rotating sleeve on the lower side of the tee is provided with an anti-pull structure.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution, the anti-pull structure includes a sleeve that is rotated and damped on the tee, the outer side of the sleeve is bonded and fixed to the outer surface of the fixing belt, and the two ends of the fixing belt are respectively provided with matching Velcro strips.
[0012] As a preferred technical solution, vertical flexible cylinders are fixedly bonded at intervals on the inner surface of the fixing belt.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides an improved closed chest drainage device with the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. The utility model is fixedly connected to one end of the extension tube through the three-way side opening, and a heparin cap is provided at the outer end of the extension tube, and a stop valve is provided on the extension tube. When in use, the inside of the heparin cap is a rubber plug, which can maintain a sealed state and will not allow the three-way side opening to be exposed. When the chest closed drainage device is not draining smoothly, the needle of the syringe is used to pierce the rubber plug for negative pressure suction to ensure smooth drainage. When the needle is pulled out, the needle puncture hole of the rubber plug returns to its original sealed state, and bacteria and viruses will not enter, thereby preventing the patient from being infected. The stop valve plays a role in preventing reflux, and when necessary, medicine can be injected into the tube through the heparin cap.
[0015] 2. The utility model provides a roller adjustment switch on the first drainage tube. When in use, the roller adjustment switch can control the drainage amount and drainage speed. When replacing the drainage device or performing a leak test, the roller adjustment switch needs to be turned off to close the chest drainage tube. When coughing, chest pain, shortness of breath or decreased blood oxygen saturation occur after the chest drainage tube is placed, the roller adjustment switch also needs to be turned off to clamp the chest drainage tube.
[0016] 3. The utility model includes a hard collar fixedly mounted on the first drainage tube and the second drainage tube at intervals through an anti-bending structure. When in use, the hard collar can effectively resist pressure on the first drainage tube and the second drainage tube, preventing the drainage tube from bending and affecting drainage.
[0017] 4. The utility model includes an anti-pulling structure including a sleeve that is damped and rotated on the tee. The outer side of the sleeve is bonded and fixed to the outer surface of the fixing belt. The two ends of the fixing belt are respectively provided with Velcro that cooperate with each other. The inner surface of the fixing belt is fixed and bonded with vertical flexible cylinders at intervals. When in use, the tee can rotate with damping in the sleeve, which is convenient for adjusting the direction of the tee. The fixing belt can be wrapped and fixed on the patient's body (torso or arm). When the drainage tube is pulled, the tee can be pulled first, and will not cause traction on the drainage source. The flexible cylinder plays a role of spacing and ventilation.
