Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the medical appliance technical field relates to a multifunctional vaginal secretion sampling test tube. BACKGROUND

[0002] The vagina is an important part of the female reproductive system, and the number and species of microorganisms in the vagina maintain a certain dynamic balance under healthy conditions. Inflammation, sexually transmitted diseases, frequent sexual intercourse, etc. can cause imbalance of vaginal microorganisms, leading to a decrease in beneficial microorganisms such as lactobacillus in the vagina, an increase in pathogenic bacteria, a change in vaginal cleanliness, and the occurrence of vaginitis. Millions of women worldwide have experienced abnormal vaginal discharge and vaginitis. Common clinical diagnoses of vaginitis include bacterial vaginosis (BV: 40%-50%), vulvovaginal candidiasis (20%-25%), and trichomoniasis (15%-20%). Morphological microscopy based on microscopic techniques can reflect inflammation, flora, and morphological characteristics in the vagina, providing important information for clinical diagnosis of gynecological reproductive tract infections. Wet film microscopy is widely used in clinical laboratories in primary hospitals, and it can provide information on the cleanliness of vaginal discharge and the presence or absence of clue cells, Trichomonas vaginalis, fungi, etc. However, the accuracy of wet film microscopy is related to the collection, preservation, and transportation of vaginal secretion samples without bacterial contamination, the sufficiency of cotton swab elution, and the uniformity of the smear.

[0003] The currently used vaginal secretion collection test tube consists of a separate test tube and a cotton swab, and after sampling, the medical staff needs to separate the PH test and vaginal secretion microscopy into two parts. For secretion microscopy, the laboratory personnel need to manually soak the cotton swab in physiological saline, which causes the steps to be cumbersome and increases the workload of the laboratory personnel. Moreover, the test tube wall is smooth, and it is difficult to fully elute the viscous vaginal secretion, which causes the cells and bacteria in the secretion to be unable to be released into the saline, resulting in inaccurate test results.
