Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary device technology, and in particular to a device for preventing leakage of pleural and peritoneal fluid. Background Technology
[0002] Ascites and pleural effusion caused by cirrhosis, liver failure, and liver cancer are characterized by insidious onset, long course, difficulty in curing, and easy recurrence. Compensated cirrhosis has no obvious clinical symptoms, while the main complications of decompensated cirrhosis include varicose bleeding, ascites, pleural effusion, hepatic encephalopathy, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, hepatorenal syndrome, and hepatopulmonary syndrome. Patients live with the disease for a long time and have multiple symptoms.
[0003] Malignant ascites, also known as malignant peritoneal effusion, is a condition caused by diffuse lesions in the peritoneum of the abdominal visceral walls due to malignant tumors occurring throughout the body or in the abdominal cavity, resulting in an abnormal increase in peritoneal fluid. Clinically, patients with ascites are typically treated using disposable abdominal paracentesis kits for puncture and catheter placement. However, after catheter placement, sinus tracts can form, leading to high intra-abdominal pressure and leakage from the puncture site. This leakage is particularly prevalent at untreated puncture sites, where the probability is as high as 63.6%, resulting in slow healing and other secondary problems. Therefore, repeated leakage at the puncture site causes discomfort, financial burden, and psychological stress for patients. For medical staff, constantly changing wet and contaminated clothing and bedding, and frequently changing dressings, significantly increases workload and the risk of infection. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the above situation and to overcome the defects of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a device to prevent leakage of pleural and peritoneal fluid, which effectively solves the problem of repeated leakage from the puncture site causing discomfort to patients and increasing the workload of medical staff.
