Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of colonoscopy examination supplies, and in particular to a device for preventing fecal water splashing during colonoscopy. Background Technology
[0002] Colonoscopy is an examination method in which a colonoscope is inserted through the anus into the ileocecal junction to observe colonic lesions from the mucosal side. It is currently the best choice for diagnosing colorectal mucosal lesions. The colonoscope is a thin and flexible instrument that is inserted into the rectum through the anus and all the way to the large intestine, allowing doctors to observe the internal condition of the colon and large intestine.
[0003] During a colonoscopy, a colonoscope is inserted through the anus. To facilitate the examination, the patient is usually placed in a lateral decubitus position with a towel covering the buttocks. During the examination, air is continuously inflated into the intestinal lumen to expand it. This inflation can easily cause excessively high pressure within the intestinal lumen, leading to discomfort for the patient. This can cause the patient to unconsciously move their body to relieve the discomfort, resulting in the towel falling off. Furthermore, during the process of deflating the abdomen to reduce pressure, fecal matter and other contaminants can easily splash outwards. The towel does not effectively prevent this splashing, and the splashed contaminants fly everywhere, contaminating the equipment, the medical staff, the patient, and the surrounding environment.
[0004] In the prior art, such as the patent document with authorization announcement number CN 212140614 U, a disposable colonoscopy anti-splash device is disclosed, which includes a wearable body, a sponge pad is provided on the inner side of the back of the wearable body, an opening is provided on the sponge pad, a connecting cover is connected to the opening, and a connecting hose is connected to the other side of the connecting cover.
[0005] The aforementioned patent document describes a disposable colonoscopy anti-splash device. This device, consisting of a rubber stopper, a vial, and a connecting tubing, allows the colonoscopy tube to pass through the vial. The diameter of the vial is smaller than the colonoscopy tube, so the inner wall of the vial can fit snugly against the tube under the elastic force of the rubber stopper. Furthermore, when waste splashes during the examination, the device worn on the patient effectively blocks the splashed waste, and the absorbent nature of the sponge pad absorbs moisture from the waste, reducing its flow.
[0006] However, the sponge pad takes some time to absorb water, and as can be seen from the attached diagram, the wearable body in the above-mentioned patent document does not have a barrier at the edge to block the flowing dirt. When in use, dirt may overflow from the edge, which may still cause pollution to the equipment, medical staff, patients and the surrounding environment. Utility Model Content
[0007] This invention provides a device for preventing fecal splashing during colonoscopy, and the technical problem to be solved is to reduce the overflow of flowing waste from the edges.
[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0009] A device for preventing fecal splashing during colonoscopy includes a shielding member shaped like the letter "I" and having a connecting strap at one end that can be detachably connected to the other end of the shielding member. The suspended end of the connecting strap is provided with Velcro. The shielding member has an opening and a U-shaped blocking pocket is provided at the edge of the shielding member. The blocking pocket extends upward and can block the opening from both sides and the bottom.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention achieves at least the following beneficial effects: The fecal splash prevention device for colonoscopy in the present invention, through the U-shaped blocking pocket that blocks the opening on both sides and the bottom, and extends upward to fit the patient's skin, can block the fecal water that slowly flows to the edge of the blocking piece, thereby reducing the possibility of dirt overflowing from the edge of the blocking piece.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this application.
[0020] To address the defect in existing technologies where dirt overflows from the edges, the inventors, after careful analysis, discovered that the main reason for this problem in existing splash guards is their inability to effectively block flowing dirt at the edges. Based on this analysis, the inventors have made structural improvements to the splash guard device.
[0021] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a fecal splash prevention device for colonoscopy in this application includes a shield 1, a barrier 2, and a protective component 3.
[0022] Example 1
[0023] Among them, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The shielding member 1 is in the shape of an "I" and has a connecting strap 11 at one end that can be detachably connected to the other end of the shielding member 1. The suspended end of the connecting strap 11 is provided with the fleece side of the Velcro 12, and the other end of the shielding member 1 is provided with the hook side of the Velcro 12 that can be attached to the fleece side of the Velcro 12. By attaching the suspended end of the connecting strap 11 to the other end of the shielding member 1, the shielding member 1 can be worn on the patient to cover the patient's buttocks. The shielding member 1 has an opening 13 located at the anus, through which the colonoscope can be inserted into the patient's anus during colonoscopy.
[0024] Furthermore, one end of the shielding member 1 is provided with an elastic tension part 14. The elastic tension part 14 is provided at the end of the shielding member 1 where the connecting strap 11 is provided, and elastic tension parts 14 are provided on both sides near the connecting strap 11. By contracting the elastic tension part 14, the shielding member 1 can be firmly worn on the patient's body, preventing the shielding member 1 from shifting due to the patient's unconscious body movement.
[0025] Furthermore, a rubber ring 15 is provided on the opening 13. The inner diameter of the rubber ring 15 is smaller than the diameter of the colonoscopy tube. The shape of the rubber ring 15 matches that of the opening 13, and the outer side of the rubber ring 15 is fixedly connected to the edge of the opening 13. During colonoscopy, the colonoscopy tube is passed through the rubber ring 15. Because the inner diameter of the rubber ring 15 is smaller than the diameter of the colonoscopy tube, the inner wall of the rubber ring 15 will fit against the surface of the colonoscopy tube under the action of elasticity, thereby ensuring the seal at the opening 13 and preventing fecal matter from overflowing from the opening 13.
[0026] The barrier pocket 2 is U-shaped, and one side of the barrier pocket 2 extends upward at the edge of the blocking member 1 to block the sides and bottom of the opening 13. Furthermore, an elastic rope 21 is fixedly provided on the edge of the suspended end of the barrier pocket 2.
[0027] The elastic cord 21 on the edge of the suspended end of the barrier 2 can make the barrier 2 fit the patient's buttocks skin more closely when worn on the patient, thereby blocking the dirt that can still flow slowly and reducing the amount of dirt that overflows from the edge of the shield 1 and causes pollution to the equipment, medical staff, the patient and the surrounding environment.
[0028] Specifically, both the shield 1 and the barrier 2 are composed of a waterproof layer and a sponge layer. The waterproof layer is located on the outside, and the barrier 2 and the shield 1 are connected by the waterproof layer. The shield 1 can be worn on the patient to cover and shield the buttocks. When fecal matter splashes out of the anus, the waterproof layer on the outside of the shield 1 can effectively block the fecal matter and prevent it from seeping out through the shield 1. The sponge layer on the inside of the shield 1 can absorb the moisture in the fecal matter and slow down the flow of fecal matter.
[0029] In use, the shield 1 is worn on the patient to cover the patient's buttocks, which can protect the patient's privacy and also block the fecal water splashing from the anus. The opening 13 on the shield 1 is aligned with the patient's anus. After adjusting the position, it is attached to the other end of the shield 1 with Velcro 12 by stretching the connecting strap 11. Under the contraction of the elastic stretching part 14, the shield 1 can be firmly worn on the patient. After it is worn and fixed, the colonoscopy tube is passed through the rubber ring 15 set at the opening 13. Because the inner diameter of the rubber ring 15 is smaller than the diameter of the colonoscopy tube, under the action of elasticity, the inner wall of the rubber ring 15 will fit against the surface of the colonoscopy tube, thereby ensuring the seal at the opening 13 and preventing fecal water from overflowing from the opening 13.
[0030] Example 2
[0031] refer to Figure 3-5This second embodiment also includes a protective component 3. The protective component 3 includes a fixed silicone pad 31 and a protective shell 32. The fixed silicone pad 31 is fixedly disposed at the edge of the opening 13. The protective shell 32 is detachably snapped into the fixed silicone pad 31, and its lower end is hinged to the fixed silicone pad 31. An insertion port 321 is provided at the end of the protective shell 32 away from the fixed silicone pad 31. A rubber ring 15 is provided on the insertion port 321. The inner diameter of the rubber ring 15 is smaller than the diameter of the colonoscopy tube.
[0032] Optionally, the fixing silicone pad 31 is arc-shaped, and an adhesive is provided on the end face of the end that fits against the patient's skin, with release paper attached to the adhesive.
[0033] The silicone pad 31 can be attached to the skin around the patient's anus using adhesive. When fecal matter splashes out, it can be blocked by the protective shell 32 and then slowly flow out through the gap below the anus. This allows the sponge layer on the shield 1 to absorb the moisture in the slowly flowing fecal matter for a longer period of time, and also limits the splashing range, making it difficult for fecal matter to flow to the edge of the shield 1. At the same time, the baffle 2 set at the edge can more effectively reduce the overflow of dirt from the edge of the shield 1, thus reducing the pollution to the equipment, medical staff, patients, and the surrounding environment.
[0034] Furthermore, the protective shell 32 is provided with an insertion port 321, one end of which is curved upwards. The upward curve of the insertion port 321 gives the insertion port 321 a certain upward slope, which can effectively shield and guide the waste splashed from the anus, preventing the waste from splashing out of the insertion port 321 during colonoscopy and improving the anti-splashing effect.
[0035] It should be understood that all the above embodiments are exemplary and not restrictive. Various modifications or variations made by those skilled in the art to the specific embodiments described above under the concept of this utility model should be within the protection scope of this utility model.
