Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a balloon structure for a device that promotes the healing of anastomotic fistula after gastrointestinal resection. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of fistula management, existing drainage devices mostly rely on passive gravity drainage or single-material absorption, which has significant clinical limitations. While traditional silicone tubes or foam dressings can achieve basic drainage, they suffer from the following technical bottlenecks: Fitting defects: The complex anatomical structure of the tissues around the fistula makes it difficult for existing devices to form an effective seal with irregular wound surfaces, leading to increased risk of fluid leakage and infection; Insufficient drainage efficiency: Passive drainage relies on body position and gravity, and has limited effect on clearing deep or viscous secretions, often requiring frequent dressing changes; Tissue damage risk: Rigid support structures lack elasticity and adaptability, and long-term implantation can easily lead to local pressure necrosis. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems existing in the prior art by proposing an airbag structure for a device that promotes the healing of anastomotic fistula after gastrointestinal resection.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a balloon structure for a device to promote the healing of anastomotic leakage after gastrointestinal resection, comprising: The airbag has enlarged radial dimensions at both ends. When inflated, it forms a seal with the reconstructed part of the digestive tract and is connected by a middle section. After the airbag is placed in the reconstructed part of the digestive tract, inflating the airbag can create a sealed environment in the reconstructed part of the digestive tract.

[0005] Preferably, the airbag is integrally molded from TPU or latex material.

[0006] Preferably, the airbag has a closed, circumferentially extending bladder structure, and a vertically penetrating channel is provided at the central axis of the airbag. The channel extends in a straight line along the axial direction of the airbag, and its inner wall maintains a distance from the outer periphery of the airbag, forming a central guiding path.

[0007] Preferably, the outer diameter of one end of the airbag is between 20mm and 25mm, and the outer diameter of the other end is between 35mm and 40mm.

[0008] Preferably, the middle section has a columnar structure design, and the outer diameter of the middle section is between 9-12mm.

[0009] Preferably, when the airbag is not inflated, its maximum outer diameter is less than 15 mm.

[0011] Preferably, the central guide passage is provided with a force-applying component.

[0012] Preferably, the airbag is provided with a metal wire layer to facilitate positioning under X-ray.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: When applied to the digestive tract, this invention allows a sponge to be placed over the outside of an airbag, which is then inserted into the reconstructed area of ​​the digestive tract. By inflating the airbag, a seal is formed between the airbag and the reconstructed area. The sponge can absorb the fluid produced at the fistula opening, and the fluid can be extracted using a negative pressure suction tube. This invention provides good support and sealing for the reconstructed area of ​​the digestive tract, significantly improving the drainage efficiency of complex fistulas, reducing the risk of secondary infection, and providing a novel intervention method for refractory fistulas such as gastrointestinal fistulas and tracheal fistulas.

[0017] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A balloon structure for promoting the healing of anastomotic leakage after gastrointestinal resection, used in the recovery after gastrointestinal surgery, comprising: Airbag 1 is used to be placed in the reconstruction site of the digestive tract. In this embodiment, the digestive tract is the esophagus. In other embodiments, it may also include the stomach or other parts. Used with the following components, including: The tubing system includes a negative pressure suction tube 2 connected to the sponge 5 and an air inflator tube 3 connected to the inner cavity of the airbag 1, which is used to inflate the airbag 1 so that the airbag 1 expands and forms a closed environment with the digestive tract. Sponge 5, 5cm in length, is positioned in the middle of the airbag 1. By inflating the airbag 1, sponge 5 can adhere tightly to the reconstructed area of ​​the digestive tract. Negative pressure device 4 is connected to negative pressure suction tube 2 (the airbag 1 has an insertion channel 7 at the point where the negative pressure suction tube 2 penetrates, which is not connected to the inner cavity of the airbag 1; of course, the air inflator tube 3 can also be inserted into the insertion channel 7 and connected to the airbag 1 through the inner wall of the insertion channel 7 to realize the inflation process of the airbag 1). It is used to extract liquid from the fistula through sponge 5. Sponge 5 can be medical-grade silicone gel sponge 5 (porosity > 90%, liquid absorption ≥ 20ml / g) as the liquid storage medium. Negative pressure suction tube 2 is connected to a vacuum bottle (volume 50-200ml) (i.e., negative pressure device 4) through a one-way check valve. The vacuum bottle is pre-filled with nitrogen to maintain a constant negative pressure of -80mmHg to realize liquid suction. It is equipped with a liquid level float sensor to realize automatic valve closing. Compared to existing technologies, this application significantly improves the drainage efficiency of complex fistulas, reduces the risk of secondary infection, and provides a novel intervention method for refractory fistulas such as gastrointestinal fistulas and tracheal fistulas, demonstrating significant clinical application value and technological innovation. In this embodiment, the airbag 1 is integrally molded from TPU or latex material.

[0022] Preferably, the airbag 1 is provided with a metal wire layer 8 to facilitate positioning under X-ray. The metal wire is a flexible metal that can be positioned by X-ray and can be built into the airbag 1 or on the surface of the airbag. For example, a platinum-iridium alloy nanowire braided layer or tantalum and carbon fiber core-shell composite wire can be used.

[0023] In this embodiment, the airbag 1 has enlarged radial dimensions at both ends, with different dimensions at each end. The outer diameter of one end is between 20mm and 25mm, and the outer diameter of the other end is between 35mm and 40mm. In a preferred embodiment of this application, one end is 25mm and the other end is 35mm. After inflation, it forms a seal with the reconstructed part of the digestive tract and is connected through a middle section. In this embodiment, the middle section has a columnar structure design, which is suitable for the curved shape of the digestive tract. The outer diameter of the middle section is between 9 and 12mm. In a preferred embodiment of this application, the outer diameter of the middle section is 10mm, and the sponge 5 is sleeved on the outside of the middle section.
