Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of flush and seal pipe adapter, and specifically to a flush and seal pipe adapter of double-lumen venous catheter. BACKGROUND

[0002] In clinical practice, the flush and seal operation steps of double-lumen venous catheter are as follows: one syringe filled with flush and seal pipe liquid is connected to each end of the double-lumen venous catheter, and it is required to hold two syringes with one hand and push the syringes synchronously to reduce the deviation between the two syringes. This operation is difficult, and newly-licensed medical staff generally cannot handle it. In view of this operation difficulty, the prior art proposes the following solutions.

[0003] Solution one: clamp solution. As disclosed in Chinese patent document CN221950361U, a PICC seal pipe syringe fixing device includes a needle cylinder seat and a piston rod seat, and two or three seal pipe syringes can be quickly and neatly assembled into one body. During the injection process, the syringes are not easy to tilt, and the drug administration rhythm can be kept consistent.

[0004] Solution two: double nipple solution. As disclosed in Chinese patent document CN214596768U, a pre-charged double-lumen central venous catheter flush and seal pipe special double nipple syringe is provided with two nipples communicating with the inside of the syringe body at one end of the syringe body. The two nipples can be connected to the main and side lumens of the double-lumen central venous catheter respectively, and one syringe can be used to flush the main and side lumens of the double-lumen central venous catheter simultaneously.

[0005] Solution three: adapter pipe solution. As disclosed in Chinese patent document CN212166308U, a venous catheter flush and seal pipe device is provided with a three-way liquid injection pipe at one end of the syringe. The three-way liquid injection pipe includes a hose, a three-way connector, and a venous catheter lumen cannula. One hose is connected to a flush pipe liquid syringe, and the other two hoses are each connected to a venous catheter lumen cannula, which can simultaneously flush and seal the double-lumen venous catheter lumen cannula.

[0006] Among them, in Chinese patent document CN212166308U adopting the adapter pipe solution, the three-way connector is connected to the syringe by a hose. After the flush and seal pipe is completed, a certain amount of flush and seal pipe liquid will be left in the hose, causing waste of flush and seal pipe liquid.

[0007] Secondly, although the above three modes are beneficial to the solution of the technical problem, they are relatively single in function. In practice, the double-lumen venous catheter may encounter a situation where the lumen is not enough.

The scheme is favorable for ensuring the stability and sealing of the connection.

[0018] As improvement, the tee joint is provided with a needle cylinder sleeve which is located at the tee input end. The needle cylinder sleeve is favorable for increasing the stability of the connection between the tee joint and the syringe.

[0019] As further improvement, the needle cylinder sleeve is detachably arranged with the tee joint, and one side of the needle cylinder sleeve is provided with a bayonet for clamping into the tee joint. In practice, the needle cylinder sleeve can be selectively used.

[0020] As improvement, the infusion needle is provided with a needle handle. On one hand, the needle handle is convenient for hand operation, and on the other hand, when two infusion needles are simultaneously inserted into the lumen of one venous catheter, the adhesive tape can be wound at the needle handle, so that the fixation of the infusion needle and the human body is realized.

[0021] As further improvement, considering the waste of residual flushing pipe liquid and the portability of operation, the length of the branch pipe is 15-25 cm.

The branch pipes 20 are equal in length, and the length is preferably 20 cm. Of course, the length of the branch pipes 20 can be appropriately reduced or increased, and a length in the range of 15-25 cm is acceptable. One end of the branch pipe 20 is a branch input end for connecting with the three-way output end 12, and the other end of the branch pipe 20 is a branch output end for connecting with the venous catheter 40. The branch input end is provided with a branch pipe seat 21 so that the branch pipe 20 is detachably connected with the three-way output end 12. The three-way output end 12 is adapted to the branch pipe seat 21, and the branch pipe seat 21 has a screw segment and a straight segment adapted to the three-way output end 12. In the unused state, the branch pipe seat 21 is fixed on the three-way output end 12.

[0034] The branch output end is provided with infusion needles 22 provided with needle handles 23. When flushing or sealing the main and side lumen lines of the double-lumen venous catheter 40, the two infusion needles 22 are respectively inserted into the main and side lumen lines of the venous catheter 40. When it is necessary to increase the input connection end of the venous catheter 40, the branch pipe seat 21 is removed from the three-way output end 12, and the two infusion needles 22 are simultaneously inserted into the lumen of one venous catheter 40, as shown in Figure 4
