Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a washable negative pressure suction tube fixing device. Background Technology
[0002] Negative pressure suction devices are essential resuscitation equipment at the bedside of critically ill patients in ICUs, emergency rooms, and other wards. Effective and timely suctioning is a crucial resuscitation measure for maintaining airway patency in critically ill patients. The placement of the negative pressure suction tube is a primary consideration in nursing care, and how to position the end of the suction device during use, rather than during suctioning, has always been a challenge in nursing practice.
[0003] In current clinical practice, negative pressure suction tubes are often found hanging at the head of the bed or lying on the floor in intensive care units or wards. This contaminates the tubes, increases the risk of hospital-acquired infections, and affects the overall negative pressure suction pressure in the ward. To reduce the retention of bacteria in the suction catheter after each suctioning procedure, the tube must be flushed. However, in clinical practice, the flushing solution is usually placed directly next to the patient's bed. After each suctioning, the suction tube is discarded and the suction tube is directly inserted into the flushing solution for rinsing, which poses a risk of exposing sputum, residual viruses, and cross-infection.
[0004] How to provide a washable negative pressure suction tube fixing device is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a washable negative pressure suction tube fixing device.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a washable negative pressure suction tube fixing device, comprising: a stopper, the stopper including a plug and a flushing connecting tube, the plug being hollow and conical, the plug having an insertion tip and a connecting tail end, the flushing connecting tube being T-shaped, the flushing connecting tube having a first connecting head, a second sealing head and a third connecting head, the connecting tail end being fixedly connected to the first connecting head; a flushing connecting tube section, one end of the flushing connecting tube section being movably connected to the third connecting head; and a flushing bottle, the flushing bottle being movably connected to the other end of the flushing connecting tube section.
[0007] Optionally, the flushing connection tube segment includes a flushing tube and a needle, one end of the flushing tube is movably connected to the third connector, the other end of the flushing tube is movably connected to the flushing bottle, and the needle is disposed inside the flushing tube and close to the other end of the flushing tube.
[0008] Optionally, the flushing connection pipe section further includes a Robert clamp, which is sleeved on the outer surface of the flushing pipe.
[0009] Optionally, the plug may further include two anti-disengagement rings, both of which are disposed on the insertion tip of the plug.
[0010] Optionally, both of the anti-detachment rings are made of rubber.
[0011] Optionally, the stopper also includes a hanging rope, which is fixedly connected to the second closure head.
[0012] Optionally, the connection between one end of the flushing connection pipe section and the third connector is a threaded connection.
[0013] Optionally, the insertion tip of the plug is externally connected to a negative pressure suction tube.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0015] This application provides a flushable negative pressure suction tube fixing device. When the negative pressure suction tube is finished using, the insertion tip of the plug is tightly inserted into the negative pressure suction tube. Due to the conical design of the plug, it is difficult for contaminants such as sputum in the negative pressure suction tube to leak out, so that even if the negative pressure suction tube is dropped on the ground, it will not be contaminated by the external environment, ensuring the safety of the suction tube joint. Then, the flushing bottle is inserted into the other end of the flushing connecting tube section, allowing the flushing fluid in the flushing bottle to enter the flushing connecting tube section, and then flow through the third connector and the plug, and enter the negative pressure suction tube to complete the flushing. This cleans away residual viruses, avoids the risk of cross-infection, and provides a guarantee for the safety of patients when using the negative pressure suction tube. Attached Figure Description

[0024] Example 1
[0025] Combination Figs. 1-3 As shown in the figure, a washable negative pressure suction tube fixing device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a stopper 1, the stopper 1 including a plug 11 and a flushing connecting tube 12, the plug 11 being hollow conical in shape, the plug 11 having an insertion tip 111 and a connecting tail end 112, the flushing connecting tube 12 being T-shaped, the flushing connecting tube 12 having a first connecting head 121, a second sealing head 122 and a third connecting head 123, the connecting tail end 112 being fixedly connected to the first connecting head 121; a flushing connecting tube segment 2, one end of the flushing connecting tube segment 2 being movably connected to the third connecting head 123; and a flushing bottle 4, the other end of the flushing bottle 4 being movably connected to the flushing connecting tube segment 2.
[0026] Specifically, this application provides a flushable negative pressure suction tube fixing device. When the negative pressure suction tube is finished using, the insertion tip 111 of the plug 11 is tightly inserted into the negative pressure suction tube. Due to the conical design of the plug 11, it is difficult for contaminants such as sputum in the negative pressure suction tube to leak out, so that even if the negative pressure suction tube falls to the ground, it will not be contaminated by the external environment, ensuring the safety of the suction tube connector. Then, the flushing bottle 4 is inserted into the other end of the flushing connecting tube section 2, so that the flushing fluid in the flushing bottle 4 is introduced into the flushing connecting tube section 2, and then flows through the third connector 123 and the plug 11, and is introduced into the negative pressure suction tube to complete the flushing, cleaning away residual viruses, avoiding the risk of cross-infection, and providing a guarantee for the safety of patients when using the negative pressure suction tube.
[0027] In some possible implementations, the flushing connection tube segment 2 includes a flushing tube 21 and a needle 22. One end of the flushing tube 21 is movably connected to the third connector 123, and the other end of the flushing tube 21 is movably connected to the flushing bottle 4. The needle 22 is disposed inside the flushing tube 21 and close to the other end of the flushing tube 21.
[0028] Specifically, when the rinsing bottle 4 is inserted into the rinsing tube 21, the needle 22 punctures the cap of the rinsing bottle 4, allowing the rinsing fluid to flow smoothly into the rinsing tube 21 for rinsing. When the required rinsing volume is reached, the rinsing tube 21 connected to the rinsing bottle 4 is disconnected from the third connector 123, and can be replaced with another negative pressure suction tube for rinsing.
[0029] In some possible implementations, the flushing connection section 2 also includes a Robert clamp, which is fitted onto the outer surface of the flushing pipe 21.
[0030] Specifically, when the amount of flushing fluid input has reached the required amount, the Robert clamp is closed so that the flushing fluid will no longer be input into the flushing tube 21. After the negative pressure suction tube is replaced, the Robert clamp is opened and the other negative pressure suction tube is flushed again.
[0031] In some possible implementations, the stopper 1 also includes two anti-disengagement rings 13, both of which are located on the insertion tip 111 of the plug 11 and are made of rubber.
[0032] Specifically, the anti-detachment ring 13 is set on the insertion tip 111 to increase the friction between the insertion tip 111 and the inner wall of the negative pressure suction tube, making the plug 11 more difficult to pull out and preventing it from easily falling off. The anti-detachment ring 13 is made of rubber material, which can increase the friction and provide a safe guarantee for the use of this device.
[0033] In some possible implementations, the Cassette 1 also includes a hanging rope 3, which is fixedly connected to the second closed head 122.
[0034] Specifically, when inserting the plug 1 into the negative pressure suction tube, the hanging rope 3 can be hung on the bed railing or other ring-shaped position for fixation. Alternatively, the hanging rope 3 can be cut and tied to a safe position for fixation, which can better protect the negative pressure suction tube.
[0035] In some possible implementations, the connection between one end of the flushing connection pipe section 2 and the third connector 123 is a threaded connection, and the insertion tip 111 of the plug 11 is externally connected to a negative pressure suction pipe.
[0036] Specifically, the use of a threaded connection makes it easier for medical staff and patients to use, making the operation of this device simpler and safer.
