Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically a single-J pneumatic urodynamic pressure measuring tube. Background Technology
[0002] Urodynamic testing, based on the fundamental principles and methods of fluid mechanics, measures pressure, flow rate, and bioelectrical activity in various parts of the urinary tract to understand the function and mechanism of urine transport, as well as the pathophysiological changes in voiding dysfunction. It expresses the patient's symptoms and complaints of urinary abnormalities in graphical and numerical form, providing a pathophysiological explanation for these symptoms. It objectively reflects the abnormal physiological activities of the bladder, urethra, and sphincter muscles, providing a basis for the clinical diagnosis, classification, and treatment of various types of urine storage and voiding dysfunction, and reflecting the potential influence of lower urinary tract conditions on upper urinary tract function changes.
[0003] Pressure measurement equipment is the core of urodynamic testing. In current hospital clinical practice, pneumatic pressure measurement tubes are widely used in urodynamic examinations, offering advantages such as simple operation, accurate pressure measurement, and a low rate of iatrogenic urinary tract infection. However, the tips of the pressure measurement catheters currently used are relatively thin and flexible, which can easily lead to catheter kinking and difficulty in insertion when inserting them into patients with urethral stricture or benign prostatic hyperplasia, resulting in insertion failure. Repeated insertion can damage the patient's urethral mucosa, increasing patient discomfort and prolonging the operation time. Traditional pneumatic pressure measurement tubes only have a pair of symmetrical drainage holes at the tip, and the tube is prone to kinking at the drainage hole location, affecting the insertion of the pressure measurement tube. Furthermore, the tips of traditional pneumatic pressure measurement tubes are all straight tubes. After the pressure measurement tube is inserted into the bladder, it is necessary to use auxiliary tools such as adhesive tape to fix the main trunk of the pressure measurement tube near the urethral orifice to the surrounding skin to prevent the pressure measurement tube from falling off during the examination. External fixation procedures are cumbersome and can easily cause discomfort to patients. Furthermore, the fixation aids, such as adhesive tape, can sometimes interfere with urodynamic examinations during voiding and can easily contaminate the urethral opening, leading to iatrogenic urinary tract infections.
[0004] In conclusion, it is essential to invent a urodynamic testing air conduction pressure measuring tube with self-fixation function, a user-friendly shape and texture, to effectively improve the aforementioned shortcomings and make it suitable for clinical practice, thereby enabling accurate, efficient, and comfortable urodynamic pressure measurement.

[0040] This utility model provides a single-J pneumatic urodynamic pressure measuring tube. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1-5 This includes a single-J air-conducting pressure measuring tube 100 and a guide wire 200;

[0042] The outer wall of the single-J air conduction pressure measuring tube 100 has a fine graduation line every 5 cm and a coarse graduation line every 10 cm, starting from the first pressure measuring airbag 121 and extending along its length. The J tube 110 has at least three circular drainage holes: a first drainage hole 111, a second drainage hole 112, and a third drainage hole 113.
[0043] The single-J air-conducting pressure measuring tube 100 includes three non-interconnected pipes: the first air-conducting pipe 151, the second air-conducting pipe 152, and the drainage pipe 153.
[0044] The front end of J tube 110 is a blind end, and several drainage holes are opened on the side to communicate with drainage tube 153, with openings at the inlet and outlet 142 of the drainage tube.
[0045] The first pressure measuring airbag 121 is not connected to the outside, but is connected to the first internal air duct 151, and its opening is in the first air duct connection component 131;
[0046] The second pressure measuring airbag 122 is not connected to the outside, but is connected to the internal second air guide tube 152, and its opening is in the second air guide connection component 132.
[0047] When the J-tube 110 is not internally guided by the guidewire 200, it is spirally bent. When the guidewire 200 is inserted, it can deform with the guidewire. After the guidewire 200 is removed, it returns to its spirally bent shape.
[0048] J tube 110 is made of polyvinyl chloride or polyurethane, and the tip of J tube 110 is rounded.
[0049] The first pressure measuring airbag 121 and the second pressure measuring airbag 122 are 6cm apart, and the first pressure measuring airbag 121 is 2cm apart from the J tube 110.
[0050] The guide wire 200 includes a guide wire tip 210 and a guide wire latch 220. The guide wire 200 has a circular cross-section, and its maximum diameter is slightly smaller than the short diameter of the drainage tube 153. The length of the guide wire 200 matches that of the single-J gas conduction pressure measuring tube 100.
[0051] The guidewire tip 210 is straight under normal conditions, but can be slightly deformed under external force, and the guidewire tip 210 is rounded.
[0052] The first gas conductor connection assembly 131 and the second gas conductor connection assembly 132 are provided with external thread grooves at their tail ends that mate with the internal thread grooves of the gas pressure measuring device connector.
[0053] The drainage tube connection assembly 141 has flat sheet-like structures on both sides. The minimum diameter of the drainage tube inlet and outlet 142 is slightly larger than the maximum diameter of the guide wire 200. The diameter of the drainage tube inlet and outlet 142 gradually decreases from the outside to the inside.
[0054] The inlet and outlet diameter of the drainage tube is 142, which matches the diameter of a conventional medical syringe. The diameter of the guide wire clip 220 is larger than the minimum diameter of the inlet and outlet diameter of the drainage tube 142, but smaller than the maximum diameter of the inlet and outlet diameter of the drainage tube 142.
[0055] The diameters of the first drainage hole 111, the second drainage hole 112, and the third drainage hole 113 are smaller than the tip diameter of the guide wire front end 210;
[0056] Working principle: In use, the guidewire 200 is inserted into the single-J pneumatic pressure measuring tube 100 and fixed to the inlet / outlet 142 of the drainage tube by the guidewire clip 220. The J tube 110 straightens from a spiral bend along with the guidewire tip 210, allowing for urethral cannulation. The guidewire tip 210 is straight and blunt, and can deform slightly, making it easy to pass through the urethra of patients with urethral stricture, benign prostatic hyperplasia, etc. The insertion depth and the position of the pressure measuring balloon are determined by the scale lines set on the outer wall of the single-J pneumatic pressure measuring tube 100. After the single-J pneumatic pressure measuring tube 100 is placed in the appropriate position, the guidewire can be withdrawn. The J tube 110 returns to its spiral bend shape and is fixed in the patient's bladder. If there is residual urine in the patient's bladder, it can flow out through several drainage holes on the J tube 110 through the drainage tube 153 from the inlet / outlet 142 of the drainage tube. Alternatively, it can be used... The injection device is connected to the inlet and outlet of the drainage tube 142 and then withdrawn. During urodynamic testing, the first air conduction connection component 131 and the second air conduction connection component 132 are connected to the gas pressure measuring device with a matching internal thread groove through the external thread groove. The first pressure measuring balloon 121 and the second pressure measuring balloon 122 detect the pressure of the bladder and urethra, respectively. The pressure changes of the bladder and urethra are detected by the gas pressure measuring device by causing corresponding changes in the volume of the balloons. The drainage tube connection component 141 is connected to the injection device through the inlet and outlet of the drainage tube 142. The tester can hold the flat plate-like structure on both sides of the drainage tube connection component 141 to facilitate the connection of the drainage tube inlet and outlet 142 with the injection device. By injecting water into the bladder and draining water, the process of urine storage and urination is simulated, and the pressure and changes of each part during the process of urine storage and urination are detected.
[0057] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to embodiments, various modifications can be made and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the embodiments disclosed in this invention can be combined with each other in any way. The lack of an exhaustive description of these combinations in this specification is merely for the sake of brevity and resource conservation. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
