Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a medical conversion connector. Background Art
[0002] Central venous pressure (CVP) refers to the pressure in the right atrium and the thoracic segments of the superior and inferior vena cava. It can be used to assess a patient's blood volume, cardiac function, and vascular tone. It is a widely used clinical monitoring indicator with clinical value. Currently, monitoring CVP (central venous pressure) in clinical practice typically requires implantation of a CVC.
[0003] When using PICC for intravenous infusion, in order to prevent venous blood from flowing back, an anti-backflow valve will be set at the infusion connector end of the PICC. During normal infusion, the outer conical connector of the infusion set is inserted into the inner conical connector of the PICC. Since the outer conical connector of the infusion set fits tightly with the inner conical connector of the PICC and the fitting length is relatively fixed, the outer conical connector of the infusion set does not contact the anti-backflow valve in the inner conical connector of the PICC. Instead, it relies on the gravity of the liquid to open the valve, so that the infusion path is unobstructed and the infusion is completed. At the end of the infusion, the valve closes to prevent blood backflow. At this time, CVP monitoring cannot be performed through the infusion connector of the PICC. Therefore, we need to propose a medical conversion connector. Utility Model Content
[0004] The present utility model aims to provide a medical adapter. When CVP measurement is required through a PICC, the inner conical connector of the adapter is first connected to the outer conical connector of a CVP measuring device. The outer conical connector of the medical adapter is then inserted into the inner conical connector of the PICC. Since the guide shaft of the adapter is long and thin, it extends into the anti-reflux valve in the inner conical connector of the PICC, thereby expanding / passing through the valve, thereby achieving unobstructed liquid passage. Conventional CVP measurement can be performed on a PICC with an anti-reflux valve, thereby solving the problems raised in the above-mentioned background art.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0013] The utility model provides a medical conversion connector. When CVP needs to be measured through a PICC, the inner cone connector of the conversion connector is first connected to the outer cone connector of a CVP measuring device, and then the outer cone connector of the medical conversion connector is inserted into the inner cone connector of the PICC.

Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] When CVP needs to be measured through a PICC, the inner conical connector 1 of the adapter is first connected to the outer conical connector of the CVP measuring device, and then the outer conical connector 2 of the medical adapter is inserted into the inner conical connector of the PICC. Since the guide shaft 3 of the adapter is long and thin, it extends into the anti-reflux valve in the inner conical connector of the PICC, and can expand / pass through the valve, thereby achieving unobstructed liquid passage, and conventional CVP measurement can be performed on the PICC with an anti-reflux valve.
[0023] The outer wall of the inner cone connector 1 is provided with an external thread 6 connected to the infusion set. The external thread 6 is located at the top of the inner cone connector 1. The setting of the external thread 6 facilitates the connection between the inner cone connector 1 and the outer cone connector of the CVP measuring device, and can assist in fixation, thereby improving the stability of the conversion structure after being connected to the outer cone connector of the CVP measuring device.
[0024] The outer surface of the outer cone connector 2 is provided with an outer shell 7, and the inner side wall of the outer shell 7 is provided with an internal thread 8 connected to the inner cone of the infusion set. When the outer cone connector 2 is inserted into the inner cone connector of the PICC, rotating the outer shell 7 can drive the internal thread 8 to rotate. The internal thread 8 of the outer shell 7 can be threadedly connected and assembled with the inner cone connector of the PICC, thereby improving the stability after connection.
[0025] The outer surface of the shell 7 is provided with anti-slip vertical grooves 9, and several groups of anti-slip vertical grooves 9 are provided. Several groups of anti-slip vertical grooves 9 are distributed on the surface of the shell 7 around the center of the circle. Through the setting of the anti-slip vertical grooves 9, the friction between the medical staff's hands and the shell 7 is improved, which facilitates the connection between the outer cone connector 2 and the inner cone connector of the PICC and avoids slipping during connection.
[0026] The top end of the guide shaft 3 is rounded or chamfered, and the guide shaft 3 is funnel-shaped. Due to the shape of the guide shaft 3, it can be smoothly inserted into the anti-reflux valve in the inner conical connector of the PICC, and can open / pass through the valve, thereby improving the smoothness of the guide shaft 3 inserted into the anti-reflux valve in the inner conical connector of the PICC.
[0027] An anti-slip pad 10 is bonded to the outer surface of the inner cone joint 1. The anti-slip pad 10 is located at the bottom end of the inner cone joint 1. The setting of the anti-slip pad 10 increases the friction when medical staff pick up the inner cone joint 1, making it easier for the inner cone joint 1 to be connected to the outer cone joint of the CVP measuring device.
[0028] The surface of the anti-slip pad 10 is provided with anti-slip bumps 21, and the anti-slip bumps 21 are provided in several groups. Several groups of anti-slip bumps 21 are distributed around the center of the circle on the outer surface of the anti-slip pad 10. Through the setting of the anti-slip bumps 21, the friction between the anti-slip pad 10 and the hands of medical staff is increased, thereby improving the anti-slip effect of the anti-slip pad 10.
[0029] During specific use: the medical staff picks up the conversion connector, first inserts the inner conical connector 1 into the outer conical connector of the CVP measuring device, then rotates the inner conical connector 1, and connects it to the outer conical connector of the CVP measuring device through the outer thread 6, and then inserts the outer conical connector 2 of the medical conversion connector into the inner conical connector of the PICC, rotates the outer shell 7, and connects it to the inner conical connector of the PICC through the inner thread 8. Since the guide shaft 3 of the conversion connector is long and thin, it extends into the anti-reflux valve in the inner conical connector of the PICC, and can expand / pass through the valve, thereby achieving unobstructed liquid passage, and conventional CVP measurement can be performed on the PICC with an anti-reflux valve.
