Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to a needle remover specially used for butterfly wing needles in infusion ports. Background Art

[0002] In the field of medical care, implantable infusion ports (PORTs) are intravenous infusion devices that can be left in the body for a long time. In recent years, they have been widely used in patients who need long-term infusion and chemotherapy. The infusion port is used in conjunction with a butterfly needle to provide patients with a safe and reliable venous channel, which not only effectively prevents problems such as peripheral phlebitis and vascular sclerosis, but also avoids local tissue necrosis caused by fluid extravasation. However, the inventors of this application found through clinical nursing research that during the manual removal of the butterfly needle, nursing staff often face the risk of needlestick injuries. There are also problems such as damage to the base of the infusion port and difficulty in operation, which are specifically manifested as follows:

[0003] (1) High risk of needle stick injury: During the manual removal of the butterfly needle, the nurse usually needs to hold the infusion port base with one hand and remove the butterfly needle with the other hand. Since the butterfly needle is tightly combined with the infusion port base, it requires a lot of force to remove it. At the moment of forcible removal, due to inertia, the nurse's hand can easily move upward with the butterfly needle, resulting in needle stick injury. This phenomenon occurs frequently in clinical nursing, which not only causes physical harm to the nurse, but also may cause psychological panic and economic losses.

[0004] (2) Damage to the port base: Improper operation during the removal of the butterfly needle may also damage the port base. For example, if the needle is pulled out with too much force or in the wrong direction, the silicone puncture diaphragm at the base may be damaged, thereby affecting the service life and safety of the port.

[0005] (3) Difficulty in operation: The removal of butterfly needles is mostly done manually, which requires nurses to have high operational skills and experience. However, in actual operation, due to factors such as limited field of view, difficulty in accurately controlling the needle insertion angle and posture, it is often difficult to ensure that each operation can be carried out smoothly. This is especially true for nurses who lack clinical experience, such as new employees, interns and trainees, which increases the difficulty of operation and the failure rate.

[0006] To this end, some researchers have developed some auxiliary devices or needle pullers to avoid or reduce the risk of being pricked when removing the needle, but they still have certain defects. For example, the utility model patent with the announcement number CN217908498U discloses a disposable infusion port needle removal auxiliary pressing handpiece, and the distal end of the handpiece is provided with two circular fixing parts, which are used to be placed on the left and right edges of the infusion seat to fix the infusion seat, and play a certain fixing role on the infusion port base. However, the two circular fixing parts cannot fully fix the infusion port base. For those who operate improperly, uneven force may cause unstable fixation, resulting in needle stick injuries and damage to the base. In addition, the auxiliary handpiece is disposable, which increases medical costs. Utility model patent publication number CN220002600U discloses a needle-stick-prevention aid for infusion ports, ensuring seamless needle removal. The device comprises a thin, strip-shaped body with a latch cutout in the middle of one longitudinal side. While this aid reduces needlestick injuries to some extent, it only assists with compression and lacks needle removal functionality. This can still lead to damage to the infusion port due to unskilled operation. Addressing these issues is urgent. Utility Model Content
