Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of medical products, and in particular to a deep vein catheter connector fixing patch. Background Technology

[0002] In some existing techniques that leave intravenous catheters after surgery, it is usually necessary to disinfect the catheter connector. This serves two purposes: firstly, to prevent infection—the catheter connector is a critical part connecting the vascular access device and the infusion device, and frequent use and contact increase the risk of infection. Regular cleaning of the connector can reduce the risk of catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI); secondly, to maintain catheter function—the catheter connector may become blocked due to blood residue, drug deposits, or other residues, and regular cleaning can keep the catheter patency.

[0003] In existing technologies, the outside of the catheter connector is generally covered with gauze, and then the catheter connector and its end are fixed inside the gauze with medical tape. The end of the catheter connector used to connect to the infusion tube is also sealed with gauze and medical tape. When cleaning the catheter connector is required, medical staff need to remove the gauze from the catheter connector port, then peel back the gauze to expose the port, clean the catheter connector, insert the catheter back into the gauze, and finally reseal the catheter connector port with gauze. The entire process of cleaning the catheter connector is too cumbersome and inconvenient to operate. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-2 This application will be described in further detail.

[0024] This application discloses a deep vein catheter connector fixing patch.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A deep vein catheter connector fixation patch includes a fixation patch 1, a gauze cannula 101 movably disposed on the fixation patch 1, and a fastener 3 for sealing the port of the catheter connector 100. One side of the fixation patch 1 is attached to the skin near the patient's indwelling catheter, and the gauze cannula 101 is placed on the other side of the fixation patch 1 away from the skin. The catheter connector 100 passes through the gauze cannula 101. A fixation component 2 is also provided on the same side of the fixation patch 1 where the gauze cannula 101 is placed, which is used to fix the positions of the gauze cannula 101 and the catheter connector 100. One end of the fastener 3 is attached to the skin, and the other end of the fastener 3 is adhered to the gauze cannula 101 or the fixation component 2. The fastener 3 can cover the port of the catheter connector 100 to ensure a seal. When medical staff need to disinfect the catheter connector 100, they only need to unfasten the fastener 3; when medical staff need to replace the catheter connector 100, they first unfasten the fastener 3 and then replace the new catheter connector 100 by operating the fixing component 2, thus simplifying the overall operation steps.

[0026] The fixing patch 1 is rectangular in shape, and an adhesive layer 11 is provided on the side of the fixing patch 1 closest to the skin. In this embodiment, the adhesive layer 11 is rectangular in shape and made of skin-friendly material to minimize the occurrence of skin allergies in patients. Handles 12 extend from opposite sides along the length of the fixing patch to facilitate easy removal of the fixing patch 1 later. The gauze sleeve 101 is composed of gauze and medical tape, formed by wrapping the gauze around the outside of the catheter connector 100 and securing it with medical tape. The gauze can be non-woven or cotton gauze, and the medical tape can be transparent or semi-transparent medical tape to allow observation of the condition of the catheter connector 100.

[0027] The fixing component 2 includes a detachably connected first fixing strap 21 and a second fixing strap 22. The first fixing strap 21 and the second fixing strap 22 are respectively arranged along the length direction of the fixing patch 1, and are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the fixing patch 1 along the length direction. A certain gap is provided between the first fixing strap 21 and the second fixing strap 22 to facilitate the placement of the gauze sleeve 101. The ends of the first fixing strap 21 and the second fixing strap 22 that are close to each other are pasted on the fixing patch 1, and the free ends of the first fixing strap 21 and the second fixing strap 22 can fix the gauze sleeve 101. Preferably, by adjusting the tightness of the connection between the first fixing strap 21 and the second fixing strap 22, it is possible to fix different sizes and different numbers of catheter connectors 100.

[0028] In some embodiments, the first fixing strap 21 and the second fixing strap 22 can be configured as straps to secure the catheter connector 100 and the gauze sleeve 101 by tying them. In this embodiment, the first fixing strap 21 has a hook-and-loop fastener on the side away from the gauze sleeve 101, and the second fixing strap 22 has a loop fastener on the side closer to the gauze sleeve 101. The first fixing strap 21 has a rectangular opening 211, and the free end of the second fixing strap 22 can pass through the opening 211. When it is necessary to secure the catheter connector 100 and the gauze sleeve 101, first pass the free end of the second fixing strap 22 through the opening 211, then tighten the first fixing strap 21 and the second fixing strap 22 until the gauze sleeve 101 is pressed tightly, and finally attach the loop fastener of the second fixing strap 22 to the hook-and-loop fastener of the first fixing strap 21. This achieves simple fixation of the gauze sleeve 101 and reduces the impact on the patient's mobility.

[0029] The fastener 3 is generally a rounded rectangular sheet. A first adhesive portion and a second adhesive portion are located on the same side of the fastener 3, respectively, on both sides of its length. The fastener 3 also has a sterile part located between the first and second adhesive portions. After the catheter connector 100 and the gauze sleeve 101 are secured by the fixing component 2, both ends of the fastener 3 are then attached to the patient's implant and the fixing component 2, thus protecting the port of the catheter connector 100.

[0030] The implementation principle of a deep vein catheter connector fixation patch according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: The fixation patch is attached to the patient's skin through the adhesive layer 11, and the gauze sleeve 101 is placed on the side of the fixation patch away from the skin. The catheter connector 100 is inserted inside the gauze sleeve 101. The fixation component 2 fixes the position of the gauze sleeve 101 through the first fixation strap 21 and the second fixation strap 22. One end of the fastener 3 is attached to the skin, and the other end is glued to the gauze sleeve 101 or the fixation component 2, covering the port of the catheter connector 100 to ensure sealing. When medical staff need to disinfect the catheter connector 100, they only need to unfasten the fastener 3; when the catheter connector 100 needs to be replaced, the fastener 3 is unfastened first, and then the new catheter connector 100 is replaced by operating the fixation component 2, thus simplifying the overall operation steps. This design not only improves the stability of the catheter connector 100, but also simplifies the operation process, reduces skin irritation to the patient, and improves patient comfort.

[0031] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
