Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical device technology, specifically relating to a device for preventing missed acupuncture needles. Background Technology

[0002] Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine therapy with a long history. Based on the theory of meridians, it prevents and treats diseases by needling or moxibustion at specific acupoints. Needling involves inserting extremely fine needles into acupoints, adjusting the stimulation intensity according to the characteristics of the acupoint and individual differences to unblock meridians, harmonize qi and blood, and balance yin and yang. Moxibustion utilizes the warmth generated by burning mugwort to stimulate acupoints. Acupuncture has a wide range of indications, covering internal medicine, surgery, gynecology, pediatrics, and other medical specialties, such as common neck, shoulder, back, and leg pain, gastrointestinal discomfort, and insomnia. It is characterized by its ease of operation, minimal side effects, and significant therapeutic effects, playing a unique and important role in the medical and healthcare fields both domestically and internationally.

[0003] In daily acupuncture practice, the following reasons frequently lead to incomplete needle removal: 1. The needling site is obscured by clothing during needle retention; 2. Different doctors perform needling and needle removal procedures, resulting in insufficient handover; 3. Doctors are busy or negligent, failing to double-check that all acupuncture needles have been removed. This not only causes panic and safety hazards for patients but also leaves them with a negative impression of the doctor's unprofessionalism and irresponsibility, potentially leading to complaints and disputes. Current procedures to avoid incomplete needle removal typically involve medical staff proactively recording the number of needles inserted and then checking against the recorded number upon needle removal. However, even this method is prone to errors in recording and omissions.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need for a device to prevent the omission of acupuncture needles, which can record whether the acupuncture needle is removed or put back in during acupuncture, so as to prevent the omission of acupuncture needles. Utility Model Content
