TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to rat anterior vena cava blood sampling technical field, especially a rat restraint device. BACKGROUND
[0002] Rat blood collection is widely used in pharmacokinetics and toxicokinetics research. According to the requirements of the International Conference on Harmonization of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) guidelines and the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) guidelines, the number of blood sampling time points in rat toxicokinetics research needs to meet the requirements of dynamic drug exposure evaluation.
[0003] Rat anterior vena cava blood sampling is a commonly used blood sampling method that meets the research needs. Adult rats used for blood sampling generally weigh 250g-600g, and in pharmacokinetics and toxicokinetics research, a rat often needs to be repeatedly sampled more than 10 times in one round of blood sampling, and multiple rounds of blood sampling are generally required in a long-term test. Therefore, the operator needs to fix the rat a large number of times.
[0004] Currently, the artificial restraint method for rat anterior vena cava blood sampling is two-person restraint. One hand of the operator holds the rat's neck and back skin to keep the rat's head, neck, and chest vertical, exposing the neck injection site. The other assistant fixes the front limb of the injection site to keep it horizontal. The operator's other hand keeps the syringe parallel to the rat's head and tilts it outward by 5°-10°, tilting the needle tip toward the ventral side. The needle is inserted for blood sampling, and after blood sampling, the blood is immediately transferred to an EP tube. The operator presses the blood sampling site to stop bleeding.
[0005] A large number of restraint operations can easily cause the operator to be physically exhausted, leading to unstable rat restraint, and blood collection failure due to operation errors.
