[0028] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0029] This utility model provides a medical indwelling urinary catheter trouser, such as Figure 1 As shown, the invention includes a pant body 1. A catheter start-up fixing buckle 2 is provided below the waist of the pant body 1 to fix the proximal end of the catheter. A continuous drainage tube channel 3 is sewn on the outside of the pant body 1, extending from the waist to the thigh area to accommodate and guide the catheter along the outside of the pant body 1. An internal pocket 5 is provided in the thigh area of ​​the pant body 1, and a drainage tube fixing ring 4 is provided above the internal pocket 5 to fix the middle section of the catheter. A drainage bag placement area 51 is provided inside the internal pocket 5 for placing the drainage bag. A through hole is provided at the bottom of the drainage bag placement area 51. A urination port 52 with an openable and closable valve is provided at the bottom of the drainage bag, and the urination port 52 cooperates with the through hole. The invention also includes a guide tube, one end of which is detachably connected to the urination port 52 by threads or buckles, and the other end extends to the outer edge of the pant body 1.

[0030] This invention features a urinary catheter in place. A catheter-fixing buckle 2 located below the waistband of the trousers 1 securely fastens the proximal end of the catheter, preventing displacement and detachment. A continuous drainage tube channel 3 sewn onto the outer side provides comprehensive guidance and protection, preventing catheter twisting and kinking to ensure smooth drainage, and reducing friction between the catheter and skin for improved comfort. A drainage tube fixing ring 4 forms a fixing point in the middle of the catheter, working in conjunction with the inlet-fixing buckle to achieve stable fixation throughout the catheter's path. A drainage bag placement area 51 within the built-in pocket 5 provides a concealed storage space for the drainage bag, and the bottom through-hole and valve-equipped urination outlet maintain a neat and aesthetically pleasing appearance. Furthermore, the drainage tube connects to the urination outlet 52 via threads or buckles and extends to the outer edge of the trousers 1, allowing patients to directly drain urine without moving the drainage bag. This maintains the neatness and aesthetics of the trousers 1 while providing convenient and hygienic urine management, significantly improving patient privacy, freedom of movement, and dignity, and greatly reducing the difficulty of nursing procedures. While ensuring medical functionality, it greatly enhances patient comfort and dignity.

[0031] In one embodiment of this invention, the drainage tube channel 3 is made of an elastic mesh material, and the inner wall of the drainage tube channel 3 is provided with an antibacterial coating, which is a nano-silver coating with a thickness of 0.05~0.15mm. The drainage tube channel 3 made of elastic mesh material ensures smooth sliding of the urinary catheter within the channel and adapts to changes in the patient's position during activity, effectively preventing the urinary catheter from being deformed by pressure. The 0.05~0.15mm thick nano-silver antibacterial coating on the inner wall can effectively inhibit bacterial growth for a long time, significantly reducing the risk of urinary tract infection, and providing a safer and more hygienic user experience for patients with long-term indwelling urinary catheters.

[0032] In one embodiment of this invention, a removable leak-proof pad is provided inside the drainage bag placement area 51. The leak-proof pad is made of a water-absorbing and quick-drying material. This leak-proof pad can quickly absorb urine that accidentally leaks from the drainage bag, keeping the inside of the drainage bag placement area 51 dry and hygienic, and effectively preventing urine from contaminating the trouser body 1. Its quick-drying properties ensure that the absorbed liquid evaporates quickly, avoiding the growth of bacteria in a damp environment. When urine leakage occurs in patients with limited mobility or who are bedridden, it can absorb the liquid in time, preventing prolonged contact of the skin with a damp environment that could lead to pressure sores or skin inflammation. At the same time, it reduces the cleaning burden on caregivers, providing patients with a more comfortable and safer urine collection solution.

[0033] In one embodiment of this utility model, an elastic restraint band is provided in the drainage bag placement area 51. The elastic restraint band can adaptively adjust the restraint force according to the size and shape of the drainage bag, so as to ensure that the drainage bag is firmly fixed and avoids shaking and displacement caused by the patient's movement, while not excessively compressing the drainage bag and affecting its normal use.

[0034] In one embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the drainage bag placement area 51 is an inclined structure with an inclination angle of 5~10°. Gravity promotes the natural flow of urine to the urination port 52, ensuring that the urine in the drainage bag is completely emptied when it is drained, effectively avoiding the problem of bacterial growth caused by residual urine retention.

[0035] In one embodiment of this invention, the outer surface of the built-in pocket 5 is provided with a transparent observation window, and a fluorescent indicator strip is provided at the edge of the transparent observation window. The transparent observation window is made of medical-grade PVC material, allowing medical staff to directly observe the characteristics and volume of urine in the drainage bag without affecting the integrity of the trouser body 1. This facilitates timely monitoring of the patient's urination status, significantly reduces the need for frequent opening of the pocket for inspection, protects patient privacy, reduces the risk of cross-infection, and significantly improves the efficiency and quality of clinical nursing. The fluorescent indicator strip at the edge emits a soft, cool light autonomously in low-light environments, avoiding interference with the patient's rest at night by turning on the lights, while ensuring that medical staff can quickly locate the observation window for urine examination, making it particularly suitable for nighttime care.

[0036] In one embodiment of this invention, the trouser body 1 is made of antibacterial and breathable fabric, with silicone pads added to areas prone to friction. The antibacterial fabric effectively inhibits bacterial growth and reduces the risk of infection, while its breathability ensures normal skin respiration, preventing skin problems caused by stuffiness and dampness. The medical-grade silicone pads added to areas prone to friction, such as the crotch and waist of the trouser body 1, significantly reduce catheter friction and the risk of skin pressure sores, making it particularly suitable for long-term use by bedridden patients, improving comfort and quality of life during treatment.

[0037] In summary, this invention provides a comprehensive and humanized nursing solution for patients with indwelling urinary catheters through innovative structural design and functional integration. The catheter initiation fixing buckle 2 and the drainage tube fixing ring 4 form a double fixing mechanism, ensuring stability throughout the catheter's movement. The outer drainage tube channel 3 protects the catheter and enhances comfort. The built-in pocket 5 conceals the drainage bag, and together with the openable / closable urination port 52 and the drainage tube design, it enables convenient and hygienic urine management. Antibacterial coatings and leak-proof pads effectively control the risk of infection. A transparent observation window and fluorescent indicator strip facilitate nursing observation. The antibacterial and breathable fabric and silicone pad significantly improve wearing comfort. The components of this invention work together to ensure medical functionality while greatly improving patient privacy, freedom of movement, and dignity, providing a safer and more efficient solution for clinical nursing.

[0038] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
