Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of patient pants technology, specifically to a patient pants for use with indwelling urinary catheters or ostomy bags. Background Technology

[0002] In clinical nursing settings, indwelling catheterization is widely used. Furthermore, some patients with intestinal tumors undergoing enterostomy not only require an abdominal stoma bag but also an indwelling urinary catheter in the early postoperative period, significantly increasing the burden of catheter care and posing safety risks. These burdens can reduce patients' confidence in daily activities such as getting up and walking. Designing a catheter placement trouser that can properly secure the indwelling catheter and stoma bag could effectively increase patients' confidence in movement and promote disease recovery.

[0003] Existing patient pants lack a specific design, often resulting in the haphazard placement of urine collection bags and ostomy bags. When patients stand, the bags tend to droop and become tangled; during walking, friction and collision between the bags and the pants create a foreign body sensation, instability, and insecurity due to the bags pulling the pants down. This chaotic situation not only exacerbates patients' fear of catheter dislodgement, causing them to deliberately reduce activity and delay recovery, but also increases the risk of reflux and infection due to the need for external catheters to be routed upwards around the waistband or opening in the pants. This has become a critical issue in clinical nursing that urgently needs to be addressed. Furthermore, existing patient pants cannot simultaneously meet the needs of securing urine collection bags and the specific requirements of ostomy care. For patients with urine collection bags, due to the lack of a dedicated fixation structure, a common clinical practice is to use safety pins to secure them to the pant legs as a temporary solution. This method presents multiple safety risks: the sharp end of the safety pin can easily scratch the patient's delicate skin, causing skin damage or even infection; insufficient fixation strength leads to frequent shaking of the urine collection bag during patient movement, which may cause the catheter to be pulled and displaced; more seriously, if the safety pin falls off, the urine collection bag may lose its restraint, increasing the risk of the catheter being pulled off, and the shaking bag can also interfere with the patient's balance, increasing the probability of falls. For ostomy patients, the waistband design of existing patient pants cannot avoid the stoma area. To avoid pressure on the ostomy bag, patients are forced to lower their waistband, resulting in excessively long pant legs and a low crotch, further exacerbating walking difficulties and the risk of falls.

[0004] The existing technology CN206238538U discloses a pair of pants for patients with indwelling catheters, which still has significant limitations in practical applications. First, this design is only for patients with a single indwelling catheter and cannot cover the complex needs of patients with ostomy bags, thus having a narrow scope of application. Second, it does not have an adjustable waistband structure, so it cannot adapt to the tightness needs of patients with different body types, especially for ostomy patients, making it difficult to avoid pressure on the stoma and ostomy bag. Third, the design of separating the front cover from the pants not only increases the complexity of putting on and taking off the pants, but also leads to insufficient stability at the urine collection bag fixing point. When patients move, there is still a risk of infection due to the urine collection bag shaking, catheter snagging and falling off, and urine backflow, which fails to fundamentally solve the core problems in clinical nursing.

[0005] Therefore, developing a patient trouser for indwelling urinary catheters or ostomy bags would not only effectively compensate for the shortcomings of existing technologies, but also meet the needs of patients to carry urine collection bags and / or ostomy bags for a long time, which is of great significance for improving patients' quality of life. Utility Model Content

[0006] The present invention aims to provide a patient trouser for use with indwelling urinary catheters or ostomy bags, in order to solve the technical problem that existing patient trousers cannot meet the needs of patients who carry both urinary catheters and ostomy bags at the same time.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a pair of patient pants for indwelling urinary catheters or ostomy bags, comprising a waistband, pant legs and suspenders, wherein a zipper is provided at the front of the pant legs and a waistband length adjustment component is provided at the position corresponding to the zipper of the waistband;

[0008] The waistband and pant legs on both sides of the zipper are provided with V-shaped openings, and fixed components are provided on both sides of the V-shaped openings; the number of shoulder straps is the same as the number of V-shaped openings, the shoulder straps are Y-shaped, the two straps at the first end of the Y-shape are detachably connected to the two sides of the V-shaped openings, and the tail end is detachably fixed to the back of the waistband.

[0009] The trouser leg has a channel and fixing components for the passage of a urinary catheter and a urine collection bag at the front of the thigh; the fixing components include a fixing buckle and a fixing bag located at the top, with the fixing bag covering the channel.

[0010] The principle and advantages of this scheme are:

[0011] 1. Compared to existing technologies that cannot simultaneously meet the nursing needs of patients carrying both ostomy bags and urine collection bags, this solution, through a combination of a carrying strap, a V-shaped opening, and a fixing component, not only effectively accommodates the dressing and nursing needs of patients carrying both ostomy bags and urine collection bags, but also ensures that if a patient only carries either an ostomy bag or a urine collection bag, the V-shaped opening or fixing component will not affect the patient's normal life or appearance. Specifically, if the patient only carries a urine collection bag, the fixing component can close the V-shaped opening to prevent it from affecting the patient's external appearance when dressed; if the patient only carries one side of the ostomy bag, the V-shaped opening on the other side can also be closed, without affecting the patient's external appearance when dressed, preserving the patient's dignity and boosting their confidence in life.

[0012] 2. This design features a V-shaped opening to accommodate the normal clothing needs of patients with ostomy bags. This not only effectively avoids the waistband of regular patient pants compressing the ostomy bag, but also prevents situations where the waistband of the pants moves down to protect the stoma, resulting in excessively long crotch and pant legs and potential falls. Furthermore, the V-shaped openings on both sides effectively accommodate ostomies in different locations caused by different surgeries.

[0013] 3. This solution effectively assists in securing the urine collection bag by incorporating fixing components. Specifically, the fixing buckle is used to pass through the top handle of the urine collection bag (with holes for easy insertion and hanging), the fixing bag is used to hold and secure the urine collection bag, preventing it from swaying when the patient walks, and the opening channel facilitates the insertion and exit of the catheter and urine collection bag, avoiding the inconvenience caused by the external catheters on existing patient pants needing to be routed upwards around the waistband or opening of the pants, and the potential infection caused by urine backflow due to compression. Furthermore, the urine collection bag can also store excess catheters, preventing them from snagging and falling off, thus avoiding safety hazards.

[0014] 4. This solution uses a carrying strap to help secure the pants, preventing them from falling down due to gravity when the urine collection bag or ostomy bag is full. In addition, the carrying strap also serves a decorative purpose, effectively improving the patient's mood during the illness.

[0015] Preferably, as an improvement, the elastic waistband design includes pleated fabric.

[0016] Technical benefits: The above-mentioned design allows for expansion of the waistband, making it suitable for patients of different body types.

[0017] Preferably, as an improvement, the waistband length adjustment assembly includes a waistband adjustment belt connected to one side of the waistband, the waistband adjustment belt having at least two buttonholes, and the other side of the waistband having buttons that match the buttonholes.

[0018] Technical effect: The above-mentioned settings in this solution facilitate the fixing of the waistband and the adjustment of the waistband length.

[0019] Preferably, as an improvement, the waistband is fixed with a button on the back side, and the end of the suspenders is provided with a plurality of buttonholes along the axial direction that match the button on the back side of the waistband.

[0020] Technical effect: The above-mentioned settings in this solution make the length of the strap adjustable, which is convenient for patients to wear and fix.

[0021] Preferably, as an improvement, the V-shaped opening is provided with buttons and buttonholes on the left and right sides respectively, and the two straps at the Y-shaped head end of the shoulder strap are respectively provided with buttons and buttonholes.

[0022] Technical Effects: This solution, employing the above-described configuration, allows patients to easily maintain the V-shaped opening in a closed state or to conveniently avoid the ostomy bag as needed. Specifically, when the patient needs the V-shaped opening, the two straps at the Y-shaped end of the carrying strap are secured to both sides of the V-shaped opening. When the V-shaped opening is not needed, the two sides of the V-shaped opening can also self-lock to close it. More specifically, for patients carrying only a urine collection bag, who do not need to use the ostomy bag, the carrying strap can be removed. The V-shaped opening can be closed by using the buttonholes on both sides, improving the waistband's stability and preventing the patient from feeling embarrassed or uncomfortable due to exposed skin. For patients carrying an ostomy bag on one side, who do not need to avoid the ostomy bag, the V-shaped opening can be closed by first engaging the buttonholes on the waistband and then matching them with the buttonholes on the carrying strap, thus retaining the carrying strap. If the posterior needs to avoid the V-shaped opening of the ostomy bag, the buckle on one end of the Y-shaped strap can be engaged with the buttonhole on one side of the V-shaped opening, and the buttonhole on the other end of the Y-shaped strap can be engaged with the buckle on the other side of the V-shaped opening. This keeps the V-shaped opening open and in a state that avoids the ostomy bag. At this time, the straps help to lift and support the weight of the pants and urine collection bag, preventing them from shifting down or falling off when the patient walks.

[0023] Preferably, as an improvement, the V-shaped opening is provided with a number of buttons and buttonholes on the left and right sides respectively.

[0024] Technical benefits: This solution uses the above-mentioned setup, which allows for complete closure when the V-shaped opening is not needed. It can keep the patient warm in winter and also prevent the patient from feeling ashamed or uncomfortable due to the exposed skin on their waist.

[0025] Preferably, as an improvement, the channel is L-shaped.

[0026] Technical effect: The above-mentioned setup allows for the creation of a larger channel through which the urinary catheter and urine collection bag can pass.

[0027] Preferably, as an improvement, the fixing bag is a cover cloth, the outer side of which is fixed to the trouser leg, and the inner side and bottom are provided with Velcro corresponding to the trouser leg.

[0028] Technical benefits: This solution utilizes the above-described setup. The covering cloth is detachably attached to the trouser leg via Velcro, used to secure the urine collection bag to the covering cloth, facilitating bag fixation. Furthermore, the covering cloth in the fixing assembly can also be secured to the trouser leg via Velcro, externally resembling a pocket on work pants, thus not affecting the patient's appearance, preserving their dignity, and boosting their confidence in life.

[0029] Preferably, as an improvement, the inner surface of the covering cloth is provided with a cloth pocket for accommodating the urine collection bag, and the lower edge of the cloth pocket has a strip-shaped hole in the center.

[0030] Technical benefits: The above-mentioned design allows the cloth bag to easily accommodate the urine collection bag, improving stability and further reducing swaying during walking. The slotted hole allows the urine discharge device at the bottom of the urine collection bag to pass through, which facilitates the balanced placement of the urine collection bag and allows the patient to discharge the contents of the urine collection bag without removing it, thus improving ease of use.

Detailed Implementation

[0038] The following detailed description illustrates the specific implementation method:

[0039] Example 1

[0040] This solution provides a pair of patient pants for use with indwelling urinary catheters or ostomy bags, as shown in the attached document. Figures 1-4As shown: including waistband 1, pant legs 2, and suspenders 3.

[0041] The trouser leg 2 has a zipper at the front, and the waistband 1 has a waist length adjustment component corresponding to the zipper position. The waist length adjustment component includes a waist adjustment strap 11 connected to one side of the waistband 1, with at least two buttonholes 6 on the waist adjustment strap 11, and a button 5 on the other side of the waistband 1 that matches the buttonholes 6. This design features a zipper at the front of the trousers to facilitate normal urination for patients carrying only an ostomy bag.

[0042] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the trouser leg 2 has a channel 7 and a fixing component at the front of the thigh for the catheter and urine collection bag to pass through. Specifically, the trouser leg 2 has an L-shaped opening; lifting the fabric at the L-shaped opening creates a larger channel 7 for the catheter and urine collection bag to pass through. The fixing component includes a fixing buckle 8 at the top and a fixing bag. In this embodiment, the fixing bag is a cover cloth 9. The cover cloth 9 is fixed to the trouser leg 2 on the outside, and has Velcro 91 on the inside and bottom corresponding to the trouser leg 2 for easy fixing of the cover cloth 9. The Velcro 91 at the bottom of the trouser leg 2 and the cover cloth 9 is divided into two sections, which, while fixing and limiting the position, also facilitates the passage of the urine discharge device at the bottom of the urine collection bag.

[0043] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the waistband 1 and pant legs 2 on both sides of the zipper have V-shaped openings 4, and fixing components are provided on both sides of the V-shaped openings 4; the number of shoulder straps 3 is the same as the number of V-shaped openings 4, and the shoulder straps 3 are Y-shaped. The two straps at the beginning of the Y-shape are detachably connected to the two sides of the V-shaped openings 4, and the end is detachably fixed to the back side of the waistband 1. Specifically, in this embodiment, the left and right sides of the V-shaped openings 4 are provided with buttons 5 and buttonholes 6, respectively. The shoulder straps 3 are 5cm wide, and the two straps at the beginning of the Y-shape of the shoulder straps 3 are respectively provided with buttons 5 and buttonholes 6, which facilitates the switching between the two states of "closed" and "easy to avoid the ostomy bag". The back side of the waistband 1 is fixed with buttons 5, and the end of the shoulder straps 3 is provided with several buttonholes 6 along the axial direction that match the buttons 5 on the back side of the waistband 1, which facilitates the detachable fixing of the end of the shoulder straps 3 to the back side of the waistband 1. The waistband 1 has an elastic band design and the fabric has pleats to accommodate patients with different waist sizes.

[0044] The specific implementation process is as follows:

[0045] This protocol is for patients with indwelling urinary catheters or ostomy bags, including patients with only an ostomy bag, patients with only a urine collection bag, and patients with both an ostomy bag and a urine collection bag.

[0046] For patients carrying only an ostomy bag, when wearing the patient pants of this protocol, they can use the suspenders 3 to keep the V-shaped opening 4 corresponding to their stoma position away from the ostomy bag, while closing the other V-shaped opening 4. The covering cloth 9 is fixed to the pant leg 2 by the Velcro 91 on the covering cloth 9, which looks like a pocket of work pants.

[0047] For patients carrying only a urine collection bag, an ostomy bag is not necessary. In this case, the shoulder strap 3 can be removed, and the V-shaped opening 4 can be closed using the buttons 5 and buttonholes 6 on both sides. This improves the stability of the waistband 1 and prevents the patient from feeling embarrassed or uncomfortable due to exposed skin. After putting on the pants, pass the catheter and urine collection bag through the channel 7 on the pant leg 2, hook the top handle of the urine collection bag onto the upper button 5, and then secure the cover 9 to the pant leg 2 using the Velcro 91 on the cover 9. This will secure the urine collection bag to the pant leg 2 and prevent it from swaying while walking.

[0048] For patients who have both an ostomy bag and a urine collection bag, the patient pants in this plan can be worn according to the above method, depending on the actual situation.

[0049] Example 2

[0050] To further close the unused V-shaped opening 4 on the side, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that, as Figure 5 As shown, the V-shaped opening 4 has several buttons 5 and buttonholes 6 on its left and right sides respectively. In this embodiment, there are two sets.

[0051] In this embodiment, if the V-shaped opening 4 is not needed, the V-shaped opening 4 can be completely closed by using two rows of buttons 5 and buttonholes 6, so that the pants at the V-shaped opening 4 look no different from regular pants.

[0052] Example 3

[0053] To further improve the stability of the urine collection bag, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that, as Figure 6 As shown, the inner surface of the cover 9 has a cloth pocket 92 for accommodating the urine collection bag. The lower edge of the cloth pocket 92 has a strip-shaped hole in the center. The Velcro 91 at the bottom of the trouser leg 2 and the cover 9 divides the area into two sections. Specifically, the cloth pocket 92 and the cover 9 are relatively wide to facilitate the accommodation of the urine collection bag filled with urine.

[0054] In this embodiment, the urine collection bag can be placed in the cloth bag 92, and the urine discharge device at the bottom of the urine collection bag passes through the strip hole at the lower edge of the cloth bag 92. Then, the movable side (inner side) of the covering cloth 9 is fixed to the trouser leg 2 by Velcro 91. This effectively improves the stability of the fixation and further reduces the amplitude of swaying during walking. In addition, it also makes it easier for the patient to discharge the contents of the urine collection bag without removing it, thus improving the convenience of use.

[0055] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of this utility model. Commonly known technical solutions and / or characteristics are not described in detail here. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the technical solution of this utility model. These modifications and improvements should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model, and will not affect the effectiveness of the implementation of this utility model or the practicality of the patent.
