Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine enema, specifically a traditional Chinese medicine enema device. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of modern medicine, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment methods are gradually gaining more and more attention, especially in the treatment of some chronic diseases and sub-health conditions, where the advantages of TCM are becoming increasingly apparent. As a traditional TCM therapy, herbal enemas are receiving increasing attention and application from clinicians.

[0003] Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) enemas are a method of administering liquid TCM directly into the patient's intestines. Compared to oral administration of TCM, enemas act directly on the intestines, avoiding interference from the gastrointestinal tract's metabolism and absorption of the drug, thus improving its efficacy. They are particularly effective in treating some gastrointestinal diseases (such as gastritis and enteritis) and some systemic diseases (such as pancreatitis, detoxification, and anti-inflammatory symptoms).

[0004] The advantages of traditional Chinese medicine enemas lie not only in their direct drug effects but also in their ability to rapidly absorb medicinal components through the intestines, entering the bloodstream and thus regulating the internal organs, reducing inflammation, detoxifying, and promoting the recovery of gastrointestinal function. Furthermore, traditional Chinese medicine enemas can help regulate the intestinal microecological balance, promoting intestinal detoxification and cleansing, and have a good therapeutic effect on patients with constipation, gastrointestinal discomfort, and other problems.

[0005] Regarding devices for traditional Chinese medicine enemas, the following technical solutions have been proposed in the existing technology:

[0006] 1) Announcement No. CN222056055U discloses a heat-insulating traditional Chinese medicine enema bag. In this patent application, a liquid storage bag is included. The surface of the liquid storage bag has a ventilation port. A hanging rope is fixedly installed at the top of the liquid storage bag. A tube is fixedly installed at the bottom of the liquid storage bag. An air bladder is fixedly installed on the surface of the tube. An interface is installed at the output end of the tube. An anti-slip pad is fixedly installed on the surface of the interface, which achieves better use. When using, first pull the cover plate to the left, so that the cover plate drives the locking block to slide to the left. The locking block drives the soft pad to slide out of the left side of the stop block through the locking groove. After the locking block drives the soft pad to slide out of the stop block through the locking groove, the anal tube can be connected to the interface, so that the anti-slip pad firmly locks the anal tube to the interface.

[0007] 2) Patent application CN217593488U discloses an integrated tube-bag type traditional Chinese medicine enema device. This patent application includes a heatable storage bag with a propulsion device and a flexible tube connected to it. The propulsion device pushes the medicine liquid in the storage bag into the flexible tube. This invention connects the enema tube to a rigid tube via a connecting assembly. The storage bag can be heated at any time. In use, the enema tube is inserted into the anus, and the propulsion device pushes the liquid from the storage bag into the flexible tube. A flow rate regulator adjusts the fluid speed to achieve the desired state. The traditional Chinese medicine liquid is introduced into the anus through the rigid tube and the enema tube. When liquid overflows from the anus, a recovery device collects the waste liquid into the storage container.

[0008] However, existing methods of using traditional Chinese medicine enemas still have some problems in practical applications:

[0009] 1. Because traditional Chinese medicine liquids contain various herbal ingredients, if the liquid is not thoroughly mixed, the active ingredients may be unevenly distributed, reducing efficacy. Furthermore, solid components in the liquid may precipitate, affecting the therapeutic effect. Traditional Chinese medicine enema devices often lack an effective mixing mechanism, which can affect the uniformity of the medicinal effect.

[0010] 2. Existing enema devices mostly rely on open bags and infusion tubing. The opening of the bag and the flow of the medication are easily contaminated by outside air, which may increase the risk of infection, especially for patients with weakened immune systems. Utility Model Content
