Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to an anal fecal collection device. Background Technology

[0002] Clinically, some patients experience fecal incontinence due to their condition. Fecal incontinence, also known as anal incontinence, refers to the involuntary leakage of feces and gas from the anus, resulting in bowel dysfunction. Fecal incontinence not only causes immense suffering for patients but also presents significant challenges to nursing care. ICU patients often experience severe diarrhea due to factors such as inadequate enteral nutrition, mechanical ventilation, broad-spectrum antibiotic use, and excessive use of gastrointestinal motility drugs, leading to varying degrees of perianal skin erosion and even local tissue necrosis. Currently, clinical care for patients with fecal incontinence and those critically ill and bedridden still relies on frequent cleaning of excrement and wiping of the perianal area by nursing staff / caregivers.

[0003] Existing stool collectors are relatively expensive and are for single use, which is generally unaffordable for patients. In clinical practice, homemade simple collectors are often used, but they often do not fit well or are prone to errors, affecting their use and easily causing contamination of excrement. Therefore, it is necessary to provide an anal stool collector. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide an anal fecal collector, which can effectively solve the problems of the high price of existing fecal collectors in the background art, which are used for single use and are generally unaffordable for patients. In clinical practice, simple self-made collectors are often used, but they often do not fit well or have many errors, which affects the use and easily causes the pollution of excrement.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an anal fecal collector, comprising a drainage unit, a connecting unit installed on the top of the drainage unit, and a flushing unit disposed inside the connecting unit, and further comprising an inflation unit disposed outside the connecting unit;

[0006] The inflation unit includes an annular airbag fixedly connected to the outer surface of the top of the connecting unit, and an inflation tube fixedly connected to the bottom of the annular airbag.

[0007] Preferably, the drainage unit includes a drainage bottle, a threaded connector fixedly connected to the top of the drainage bottle, and scale lines provided on the outer surface of the drainage bottle.

[0008] Preferably, the connecting unit includes a connecting tube installed outside the threaded connector and an ostomy bag opening fixedly connected to the top of the connecting tube, wherein the inner surface of the bottom end of the connecting tube is provided with an internal thread.

[0009] Preferably, the rinsing unit includes a rinsing pipe passing through the inside of the connecting pipe, a rinsing head fixedly connected to the top of the rinsing pipe, and a rinsing hole formed on the outer surface of the rinsing head.

[0010] Preferably, the inflation unit further includes an inflation cover fixedly connected to one end of the inflation tube, and a deflation valve fixedly connected to the outer surface of the inflation tube. The inflation tube is connected to the interior of the annular airbag, and the annular airbag covers the outer surface of the ostomy bag opening.

[0011] Preferably, the connecting tube is threaded to a threaded connector via an internal thread, and the drainage bottle is connected to the connecting tube.

[0012] Preferably, the top of the flushing head is higher than the top of the ostomy bag opening, and there are several flushing holes arranged in a ring array on the outer surface of the flushing head.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] In this invention, the connecting tube is first threaded to a threaded connector via an internal thread, connecting the connecting tube to the drainage bottle. Then, the ostomy bag opening is inserted into the patient's anus. Inflation is then performed through the inflation hood, allowing gas to enter the annular airbag. The airbag expands and seamlessly integrates with the anal wall, widening the anal opening. The flushing head is positioned inside the patient's anus. A flushing device is connected to one end of the flushing tube, spraying flushing fluid through the flushing tube into the flushing head. Flushing fluid is then sprayed from several flushing holes on the outer surface of the flushing head to perform an enema and flushing on the patient. The flushed fluid is then expelled through the flushing tube. The waste enters the drainage bottle through the connecting tube. The scale on the drainage bottle allows medical staff to easily observe the collected amount. After collection, the gas is released through the air inlet tube by opening the vent valve. After the annular balloon deflates, the ostomy bag opening can be removed. This structure, through the inflation of the annular balloon, allows the ostomy bag opening to fit directly and fully against the patient's anal wall. The anal-style structure facilitates the collection of excrement and avoids leakage that could affect the environment. Enemas and rinsing with the flushing head ensure more thorough excretion and keep the patient's anus clean, preventing varying degrees of perianal skin erosion. The structure is simple, inexpensive, and convenient for patients to use, making it highly practical. Attached Figure Description
