Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the medical experiment equipment technical field, concretely relates to a kind of experimental rat thrombus preparation device. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the cardiovascular internal medicine experiment, need to take rat as experimental object to carry out research, research thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), the most popular method for building CTEPH rat model is autologous thrombus method at present.Simply speaking: whole process must be kept sterile, simulate the thrombus formed by autology, inject thrombus in vein, cause pulmonary thromboembolism and then form pulmonary arterial hypertension.General operating method is to take the fresh blood of rat from orbital vein with capillary glass tube, place in culture dish, make blood coagulation overnight.Again, use physiological saline to flush out the coagulated long thrombus, and use ophthalmic scissors to form 1-3mm blood clot.

[0003] The problems of current test method are: 1. due to the small pore size of capillary glass tube, the coagulated blood is bonded with the inner wall of glass tube with greater force, and it is difficult to flush the blood clot out of capillary glass tube with saline.2. Thrombus needs to be cut into millimeter unit block, and operator needs to control the size and length, which is difficult to operate and time-consuming and labor-consuming.3. It is difficult to accurately control the size and length of thrombus by artificial operation, if length is too long, intravenous infusion can easily lead to rat death; if length is too small, it is not easy to lead to pulmonary embolism to form pulmonary arterial hypertension model.4. The risk of causing harm to rat increases in the process of taking blood from rat orbital vein, such as too much blood loss of rat caused by improper technique, blindness caused by eyeball damage, etc.The above four points are the disadvantages of capillary glass tube autologous thromboembolic pulmonary arterial hypertension rat model. CONTENT OF UTILITY MODEL

[0004] The utility model provides a kind of experimental rat thrombus preparation device, the purpose is to improve the existing thrombus preparation process, solve the problem that original thrombus is blocked in capillary glass tube, difficult to take out and unable to accurately control the size of thrombus.

[0005] Therefore, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A kind of experimental rat thrombus preparation device, including the rectangular groove for containing blood, blood coagulates in the bottom of rectangular groove, scale line is equipped on the inner wall of rectangular groove, and the amount of blood injected into rectangular groove is controlled by scale line;The top of rectangular groove is detachably connected with sealing plate;

[0007] It also includes a cutting block and a square frame. The cutting block includes a horizontal panel with a dense array of parallel cutting blades at the bottom, spaced 1-3 mm apart. A handle is located at the center of the top of the horizontal panel. The cutting block is used to cut the coagulated blood clots at the bottom of the rectangular groove. The front and side baffles of the square frame are detachably connected. The square frame is used to be placed inside the rectangular groove and abuts against one corner of the groove to guide the cutting block. Further, the rectangular groove is made of rigid plastic or aluminum alloy.

[0008] Furthermore, the cross-section of the cutting blade is wedge-shaped.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0010] 1. Blood coagulates in a rectangular groove, and the coagulated blood is in a planar shape, which can stably control the size of the blood clot. This solves the problems of unstable thrombus size and difficulty in removing coagulated blood from the capillary glass tube, which were previously used in capillary glass tubes.

[0011] 2. Using a cutting block to cut coagulated blood allows for precise control of the size of the thrombus after cutting, facilitating subsequent experiments;

[0012] 3. This device allows for blood collection using a syringe, avoiding the damage to the rat's orbit caused by the original orbital vein blood collection method. Attached Figure Description
