Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary devices, specifically to a pressure-prevention device for hemodialysis catheters. Background Technology

[0002] Before hemodialysis, a fistula is usually created in the patient's blood vessels, and a dialysis catheter is used to connect to the dialysis machine. Because each dialysis session is long and cannot be monitored by a dedicated person for extended periods, the dialysis catheter is easily squeezed or broken by the patient or foreign objects. Therefore, some hospitals use catheter anti-compression devices to prevent the dialysis catheter from being squeezed or broken, thus affecting the dialysis effect. For example, utility model patent CN22141191 U discloses a catheter anti-compression device, which describes: "...the protective component includes a lower protective block, an upper protective block, a lower clamp, an upper clamp, a locking member, and a stabilizing member...the catheter is placed on the lower clamp, which supports the bottom of the catheter...the lower clamp and the upper clamp, in cooperation with the stabilizing member, can abut against each other to fix and limit the catheter..." Although this disclosed technology provides anti-compression protection through the lower clamp, upper clamp, lower protective block, and upper protective block, the upper and lower clamps cannot be bent. However, in practical applications, the dialysis catheter cannot be perfectly straight when positioned from the patient's body to the dialysis machine. It requires necessary bends, such as changing angles or navigating corners. This anti-pressure device cannot accommodate these necessary bends, limiting its application. Therefore, improving the anti-pressure device for hemodialysis catheters—one that protects the catheter from compression and breakage in both horizontal and bending states, thus enhancing its application range—is the problem to be solved in this case. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model discloses a pressure-resistant device for hemodialysis catheters, including a pressure-resistant tubing assembly and a flexible connector assembly. The pressure-resistant tubing assembly has two tubing plates and several elastic clamping plates placed inside the two tubing plates, which can clamp the dialysis catheter and prevent the dialysis catheter from being squeezed or broken. The two sets of pressure-resistant tubing assemblies are respectively placed at both ends of the flexible connector assembly and are detachably connected to the flexible connector assembly. The flexible connector assembly has two flexible plates, which can wrap the dialysis catheter and prevent the dialysis catheter from being squeezed or broken. The flexible connector assembly can bend and deform flexibly under the action of external force. This invention improves the anti-pressure device for hemodialysis catheters by incorporating a flexible joint assembly that can be bent and deformed between two sets of anti-pressure tubing components. The anti-pressure tubing components and the flexible joint assembly protect the dialysis catheter, ensuring that the dialysis catheter is not squeezed or broken when placed flat, and is also protected when bent, thereby expanding the application range of the anti-pressure device for dialysis catheters.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A pressure-resistant device for hemodialysis catheters, characterized in that it comprises a pressure-resistant catheter assembly and a flexible connector assembly. The pressure-resistant catheter assembly has two catheter protectors and several elastic clamping plates. The two catheter protectors are semi-arc-shaped, with one protector covering and closably connected to the other. The several elastic clamping plates are dispersed within the cavity formed by the two protectors. The pressure-resistant catheter assembly can clamp the dialysis catheter and prevent it from being squeezed or broken. The pressure-resistant catheter assembly is configured in two groups, which are respectively placed at both ends of the flexible connector assembly and detachably connected to it. The flexible connector assembly has two flexible plates, both of which are semi-arc-shaped, with one flexible plate covering and closably connected to the other. The flexible connector assembly can wrap around the dialysis catheter and prevent it from being squeezed or broken. The flexible connector assembly can bend and deform flexibly under external force.

[0006] The pressure-resistant protective pipe assembly includes an upper protective pipe sheet and a lower protective pipe sheet. Both the upper and lower protective pipe sheets are rigid arc-shaped plates with arc-shaped grooves. The opening of the arc-shaped groove of the upper protective pipe sheet is opposite to the opening of the arc-shaped groove of the lower protective pipe sheet. The upper protective pipe sheet can cover the lower protective pipe sheet, and one side of the upper and lower protective pipe sheets is hinged by several hinges. The other side of the upper and lower protective pipe sheets is fastened by an openable and closable latch.

[0007] The pressure-resistant tubing assembly also includes a semi-ring elastic clamp piece, which is a half-ring piece formed by splitting a flexible circular silicone ring. Several semi-ring elastic clamp pieces are provided, which are distributed in the semi-circular grooves of the upper and lower tubing pieces. The semi-ring elastic clamp pieces in the semi-circular grooves of the upper and lower tubing pieces correspond one-to-one. Each pair of corresponding semi-ring elastic clamp pieces is a group. The two semi-ring elastic clamp pieces in each group can be assembled into a complete ring, and the assembled ring can elastically clamp the dialysis catheter.

[0008] The upper and lower protective tube sheets are provided with outwardly protruding semi-annular protrusions on the outer walls at both ends of their respective ends. The semi-annular protrusions at both ends of the upper protective tube sheet and the corresponding semi-annular protrusions at both ends of the lower protective tube sheet can respectively form an outer ring protrusion.

[0009] The flexible joint assembly includes an upper flexible sheet and a lower flexible sheet. Both the upper and lower flexible sheets are flexible sheets made of flexible rubber and have arc-shaped grooves. The inner walls of the arc-shaped grooves are respectively provided with transverse and longitudinal grooves for avoidance during flexible bending. The opening of the arc-shaped groove of the upper flexible sheet is opposite to the opening of the arc-shaped groove of the lower flexible sheet. The upper flexible sheet covers the lower flexible sheet, and both sides of the upper and lower flexible sheets are fastened by openable and closable latches.

[0010] The upper and lower flexible sheets each have an inner arc surface at both ends, and the radius of the inner arc surface at each end matches the radius of the outer arc surface at both ends of the corresponding upper and lower protective sheets. Each of the inner arc surfaces at both ends has an inwardly concave semi-annular groove. The inner arc surfaces at both ends of the upper flexible sheet and the inner arc surfaces at both ends of the corresponding lower flexible sheet can respectively form a circular hole-shaped connection opening. The semi-annular grooves at both ends of the upper flexible sheet and the semi-annular grooves at both ends of the corresponding lower flexible sheet can respectively form a circular groove-shaped inner groove.

[0011] The inner groove matches the outer boss, and one end of each of the two sets of pressure-resistant protective tube components can be inserted into the connection ports at both ends of the flexible joint component. The outer boss at one end of each of the two sets of pressure-resistant protective tube components can be embedded into the inner grooves at both ends of the flexible joint component. The flexible joint component can restrict the movement of the pressure-resistant protective tube component.

[0012] The flexible joint assembly further includes a fixing connector, which may consist of one or more pieces. One end of the fixing connector is fixed to the upper or lower flexible sheet, and the other end of the fixing connector may be clamped or detachably locked to a fixed object around the patient.

[0013] As described above, the advantages of the anti-compression device for hemodialysis catheters provided by this utility model are as follows: a flexible joint assembly capable of bending and deforming is provided between the two sets of anti-compression tubing components. The anti-compression tubing components and the flexible joint assembly protect the dialysis catheter, ensuring that the dialysis catheter is not squeezed or broken in a flat state, and is also protected when necessary in a bending state. This utility model, through improvements to the anti-compression device for hemodialysis catheters, expands the application range of dialysis catheter anti-compression devices. This utility model has a reasonable design, simple structure, low cost, and is easy to promote. Attached Figure Description

The semi-annular bosses at both ends of the upper half-protective piece 11 and the corresponding semi-annular bosses at both ends of the lower half-protective piece 12 can respectively form an outer ring-shaped boss 101.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the flexible joint assembly 2 of this utility model includes an upper flexible sheet 21, a lower flexible sheet 22, and a fixing connector 23.
