Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to a protective device for indwelling needles used in clinical nursing. Background Technology
[0002] Indwelling needles, also known as intravenous catheters or venous cannulas, are medical devices used in clinical nursing primarily for short- to medium-term intravenous infusion therapy. During use, the catheter and needle core are inserted together into the blood vessel. Once the catheter is fully inside the vessel, the needle core is withdrawn, leaving only the flexible catheter in place for infusion therapy. Using indwelling needles reduces patient discomfort and fear of puncture, while also reducing the workload for healthcare workers and improving efficiency.
[0003] Traditional indwelling needles are usually fixed with a sterile transparent dressing centered on the puncture point to prevent patients from scratching or pulling on the needle. However, the transparent dressing adheres tightly to the skin and can affect skin respiration. Wearing it for a long time can easily cause pressure sores and itching on the patient's skin. In addition, if the indwelling needle is pressed accidentally, it can easily cause pain or other damage to the patient, affecting the patient's safety and comfort. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a protective device for indwelling needles in clinical nursing, which has the advantages of stabilizing and protecting the indwelling needle, ensuring the safety and comfort of patients, and solving the problems of safety hazards and reduced comfort that exist when using traditional fixation and protection devices to protect indwelling needles.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a protective device for indwelling needles used in clinical nursing, comprising a device body, the device body comprising a protective sleeve, a skeleton, and a protective shell, the skeleton being fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective sleeve, the protective shell being movably connected to the skeleton, and several sets of fixing straps being fixedly connected to both sides of the protective sleeve, with Velcro provided on the surface of one end of each fixing strap.
[0006] Furthermore, the inner wall of the skeleton is provided with a rotating hole and a slot on both sides.
[0007] Furthermore, connecting posts and locking blocks are respectively connected to the two end faces of the protective shell.
[0008] Furthermore, the connecting column is rotatably connected to the rotating hole, and the locking block is inserted into the locking slot.
[0009] Furthermore, both the frame and the protective shell are made of transparent soft plastic material with a certain degree of hardness.
[0010] Furthermore, both the protective sleeve and the protective shell have multiple ventilation holes on their surfaces, and the protective sleeve and the frame are designed with an opening at one end.
[0011] Furthermore, there are at least two sets of fixing straps on both sides of the protective sleeve, and the fixing straps are stretchable straps with extensibility.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] 1. This clinical nursing indwelling needle protection device consists of a protective sleeve fitted with a skeleton, and a protective shell fitted on the skeleton. The indwelling needle is protected inside the protective shell by the protective sleeve closely fitting around the puncture site. The infusion tube extends out from the opening at one end of the protective sleeve and the skeleton. The protective shell protects the indwelling needle and prevents it from being touched or pressed.
[0014] 2. This clinical nursing indwelling needle protection device features several sets of Velcro-attached fixing straps on both sides of the protective sleeve, which allows the protective sleeve and shell to be stably fixed to the body part. They can be directly glued together or cross-attached, improving the stability of the fixation.
[0015] 3. This indwelling needle protection device for clinical nursing has ventilation holes in both the protective sleeve and the protective shell, which allows the skin within the protected area to breathe when wearing the device, reducing the risk of pressure sores or itching caused by prolonged wear.
[0016] 4. This indwelling needle protection device for clinical nursing uses connecting posts on both sides of the protective shell. By rotating the rotating holes on both sides of the connecting frame, the locking blocks on both sides of the protective shell are inserted into the locking slots on both sides of the frame. By pinching one side of the protective shell, the protective shell is slightly deformed, the locking blocks are pulled out of the locking slots, and the protective shell is flipped over, so that medical staff can quickly check the status of the indwelling needle at any time.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Example
[0022] Depend on Figure 1-2 Provided is a protective device for indwelling needles in clinical nursing, including a device body 1. The device body 1 includes a protective sleeve 2, a skeleton 3 and a protective shell 4. The skeleton 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective sleeve 2, and the protective shell 4 is movably connected to the skeleton 3. Several sets of fixing straps 5 are fixedly connected to both sides of the protective sleeve 2, and Velcro 6 is provided on the surface of one end of the fixing strap 5.
[0023] In this embodiment, a frame 3 is assembled on the inner wall of the protective sleeve 2. The frame 3 is rotatably connected to the connecting post 41 through the rotating hole 31 to assemble the protective shell 4. The protective shell 4 is positioned by inserting the locking block 42 into the slot 32 on both sides of the frame 3. Multiple sets of fixing straps 5 are assembled on both sides of the protective sleeve 2. By covering the position of the indwelling needle with the protective shell 4, the protective sleeve 2 fits the skin around the puncture. The protective sleeve 2 and the protective shell 4 are fixed by wrapping and pasting or directly pasting the fixing straps 5, thereby achieving stable protection for the indwelling needle.
[0024] Understandably, by setting multiple ventilation holes on the surface of both the protective sleeve 2 and the protective shell 4, and by designing an open end for both the protective sleeve 2 and the frame 3, the skin within the protected area can breathe, and the infusion tube can extend from the open end for infusion, reducing the occurrence of pressure sores or itching from prolonged wear; by setting at least two sets of fixing straps 5 on both sides of the protective sleeve 2, and by setting the fixing straps 5 to be stretchable and elastic, the device body 1 can be easily and stably worn by directly or crosswise pasting the fixing straps 5.
[0025] It should be noted that, as shown in the figure, there is a certain distance between the planes where the protective shell 4 and the protective sleeve 2 are located. This allows the indwelling needle to be protected inside the protective shell 4 without being pressed down, and also facilitates ventilation and breathing for the skin directly beneath the protective shell 4.
[0026] For details, please refer to Figure 2In order to protect the indwelling needle and facilitate medical staff to view it, the inner wall of the skeleton 3 in this embodiment is provided with a rotating hole 31 and a slot 32 on both sides. The two end faces of the protective shell 4 are respectively connected with a connecting post 41 and a locking block 42. The connecting post 41 is rotatably connected to the rotating hole 31, and the locking block 42 is inserted into the slot 32. Both the skeleton 3 and the protective shell 4 are made of transparent soft plastic with a certain degree of hardness.
[0027] In this embodiment, rotating holes 31 are opened on the inner walls of both sides of the skeleton 3 and the connecting posts 41 on both sides of the protective shell 4 are rotatably connected. The protective shell 4 is equipped with locking blocks 42 on both sides and inserted into the locking slots 32 opened on the inner walls of both sides of the skeleton 3, which facilitates the protection of the indwelling needle. In addition, the skeleton 3 and the protective shell 4 are made of soft plastic material with a certain degree of hardness, so that by pinching the two sides of one end of the protective shell 4, the two sides of one end of the protective shell 4 will be slightly deformed, and the locking blocks 42 will be pulled out from the locking slots 32, which facilitates medical staff to quickly check the indwelling needle.
[0028] It should be noted that there is a small gap between the bottom surface of the protective shell 4 and the skin, so that the protective shell 4 will not touch the puncture needle hole and indwelling needle when it is flipped over.
[0029] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:
[0030] 1. Cover the indwelling needle with the protective shell 4, and fit the protective sleeve 2 against the skin around the puncture site. Extend the infusion tubing from the opening at one end of the protective sleeve 2. Then, wrap and cross the fixing straps 5 on both sides of the protective sleeve 2 or stick them together directly. This fixes the protective sleeve 2 and the protective shell 4 on the patient's body, thereby stabilizing and protecting the indwelling needle.
[0031] 2. When medical staff need to observe the indwelling needle, by pinching the two sides of one end of the protective shell 4, the two sides of one end of the protective shell 4 will be slightly deformed, making it easy for the locking block 42 to be pulled out from the locking slot 32 and the protective shell 4 to be flipped over, so as to facilitate quick inspection of the indwelling needle without having to remove the device body 1 for observation, thus reducing the safety hazard of accidentally touching the indwelling needle due to the repeated disassembly and wearing of the device body 1.
[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
