Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of alcohol swabs, and in particular to a medical alcohol swab that avoids secondary contamination. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of intravenous therapy techniques, indwelling needles and central venous catheters are widely used in clinical practice. Heparin caps and needle-free infusion connectors are important sources of microbial contamination. If disinfection is not thorough during infusion connection, catheter-related bloodstream infections can easily occur.
[0003] In clinical practice, iodine swabs or alcohol swabs are frequently used for disinfection, but the friction area and pressure are often insufficient. Alcohol wipes, on the other hand, provide better disinfection with a larger friction area and greater pressure. However, existing medical alcohol wipes are packaged in bags, which are torn open before use. This means the wipes come into direct contact with the hands. To meet aseptic requirements, regulations require nurses to wear clean or sterile gloves before use. Clinical nurses manage a large number of patients, and each patient requires the use of alcohol wipes to disinfect the catheter opening and infusion connector, resulting in a cumbersome process of repeatedly putting on and taking off gloves. Utility Model Content
[0004] (I) Purpose of the utility model
[0005] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to propose a medical alcohol swab that avoids secondary contamination. It solves the problem that existing medical alcohol swabs are packaged in bags, and when used, the bag is torn open and the alcohol swab is taken out. At this time, the alcohol swab comes into direct contact with the hands. In order to meet the aseptic requirements, the regulations require nurses to wear clean or sterile gloves before use. However, clinical nurses manage a large number of patients, and each patient needs to use alcohol swabs to disinfect the catheter opening and infusion connector, which is a cumbersome operation of repeatedly putting on and taking off gloves.
[0006] (II) Technical Solution
[0007] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, this utility model provides a medical alcohol swab that avoids secondary contamination:
[0008] It includes a packaging layer, on the inner side of which a waterproof membrane is fixed. A disinfectant cotton pad is disposed on the side of the waterproof membrane away from the packaging layer, and all four sides of the disinfectant cotton pad are bonded to the waterproof membrane. A cavity is formed between the disinfectant cotton pad and the waterproof membrane. A second waterproof membrane is bonded to one side of the waterproof membrane and is located inside the cavity. A liquid storage cavity is formed between the second waterproof membrane and the first waterproof membrane, and the liquid storage cavity is filled with alcohol.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the medical alcohol swabs that avoid secondary pollution according to the present invention, the second waterproof membrane has multiple conical grooves inside, and the diameter of the conical grooves gradually decreases from the first waterproof membrane towards the disinfectant swab.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the medical alcohol swabs that avoid secondary pollution according to this utility model, the inner side of the packaging layer is covered with double-sided adhesive along its edge, and the packaging layer, the waterproof film, and the middle of the disinfectant swab are folded to form a fold line.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the medical alcohol swabs that avoid secondary pollution according to this utility model, two finger cots are fixed on the outer side of the packaging layer, and the two finger cots are symmetrically arranged about the fold line.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the medical alcohol swabs that avoid secondary pollution according to this utility model, the finger cot has a finger pattern on one side, and the packaging layer has a tear opening.
[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the medical alcohol swabs that avoid secondary pollution according to this utility model, the size of the disinfectant swabs is 3cm*6cm*0.2cm.
[0014] As can be seen from the above technical solution, this application has the following beneficial effects: pressing the packaging layer causes the alcohol to break through the conical groove under the action of squeezing force. The alcohol comes out from the conical groove and wets the disinfectant cotton pad. By inserting the finger into the finger cot and pinching the packaging layer, the disinfectant cotton pad wetted by alcohol can be used for disinfection. Moreover, the hands of medical staff do not come into contact with the disinfectant cotton pad, avoiding contamination of the disinfectant cotton pad. Furthermore, the initial alcohol is stored in the liquid storage chamber, avoiding the evaporation of alcohol. Attached Figure Description

[0022] Reference Figure 1-4 :
[0023] In one embodiment of this utility model, a medical alcohol swab that avoids secondary contamination is provided, comprising a packaging layer 101, a waterproof membrane 102 fixed to the inner side of the packaging layer 101, a sterile swab 103 disposed on the side of the waterproof membrane 102 away from the packaging layer 101, the sterile swab measuring 3cm*6cm*0.2cm, and all four sides of the sterile swab 103 being bonded to the waterproof membrane 102, forming a cavity 107 between the sterile swab 103 and the waterproof membrane 102, a second waterproof membrane 104 bonded to one side of the waterproof membrane 102, the second waterproof membrane 104 being located within the cavity 107, a liquid storage cavity 106 formed between the second waterproof membrane 104 and the first waterproof membrane 102, and the liquid storage cavity 106 being filled with alcohol, a tear opening 109 provided on the packaging layer 101, and multiple conical grooves 105 provided in the second waterproof membrane 104, the diameter of the conical grooves 105 gradually decreasing from the first waterproof membrane 102 toward the sterile swab 103.
[0024] It should be noted that, due to the installation of waterproof membrane 102 and waterproof membrane 2 104, and the formation of a liquid storage chamber 106 between waterproof membrane 102 and waterproof membrane 2 104, alcohol is stored in the liquid storage chamber 106, preventing alcohol evaporation. When waterproof membrane 2 104 is squeezed, due to the installation of the conical groove 105, alcohol can be discharged from the conical groove 105 and wet the disinfectant cotton pad 103, so that the disinfectant cotton pad 103 can be used subsequently.
[0025] In addition, double-sided tape 108 is attached to the inner side of the packaging layer 101 along its edge. The packaging layer 101, waterproof membrane 102, and disinfectant cotton pad 103 are folded to form a fold line 112. Two finger sleeves 110 are fixed to the outer side of the packaging layer 101, and the two finger sleeves 110 are symmetrically arranged about the fold line 112. A finger graphic 111 is provided on one side of the finger sleeve 110.
[0026] During use, initially, the packaging layer 101, waterproof membrane 102, and disinfectant pad 103 are folded along the fold line 112. The folded double-sided adhesive 108 is then bonded together, so that the packaging layer 101 covers the waterproof membrane 102 and disinfectant pad 103 inside. When the disinfectant pad 103 needs to be used for disinfection, first press the packaging layer 101. At this time, under the action of the squeezing force, the alcohol breaks through the conical groove 105, so that the alcohol comes out from the conical groove 105 and wets the disinfectant pad 103. Then, tear open the packaging layer 101 from the tear opening 109, insert your finger into the finger cot 110, and then use the disinfectant pad 103 wetted with alcohol to disinfect while pinching the packaging layer 101. The medical staff's hands do not come into contact with the disinfectant pad 103, avoiding contamination of the disinfectant pad 103.
[0027] The exemplary implementation of the solution proposed in this disclosure has been described in detail above with reference to preferred embodiments. However, those skilled in the art will understand that various modifications and alterations can be made to the above specific embodiments without departing from the spirit of this disclosure, and various combinations can be made to the various technical features and structures proposed in this disclosure without exceeding the protection scope of this disclosure, which is determined by the appended claims.
