Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to medical device technology, specifically an arterial puncture needle that accurately and promptly indicates whether an indwelling needle has been successfully placed. Background Technology

[0002] In modern medicine, arterial puncture is required for certain surgeries and diagnostic procedures. Commonly used arterial puncture needles typically consist of a stainless steel needle, an indwelling needle, and a catheter sheath. The stainless steel needle includes a needle body, a needle hub, and a handle. The indwelling needle comprises an indwelling needle tube, a catheter hub, and a flow-closing valve. The indwelling needle tube is a soft, transparent plastic tube suitable for prolonged placement within the blood vessel. It is placed over the stainless steel needle tube and is approximately 1 mm shorter. The flow-closing valve is mounted on the catheter hub and opens or closes the lumen of the catheter hub by sliding it back and forth.

[0003] However, most arterial puncture needles currently available have the following shortcomings: low success rate of indwelling arterial puncture needle placement: because the stainless steel needle tube is about 1mm longer than the indwelling needle tube, during the placement process, even if blood returns in the lumen of the catheter seat after needle insertion, it only indicates that the needle tip of the stainless steel needle tube has been inserted into the artery, but it cannot guarantee that the indwelling needle tube outside the stainless steel needle tube has also been inserted into the artery. If the stainless steel needle is withdrawn before the tip of the indwelling needle tube enters the artery, the placement fails, and the needle must be reinserted. Therefore, it is not only troublesome to operate, causing waste and delaying time, but also increases the patient's pain and economic burden.

[0004] Below is a prior art document found through a novelty search that is closest to the technical solution of this application: CN201020683464.4, "An Arterial Puncture Needle". This document discloses an arterial puncture needle for detecting intra-arterial blood pressure, which consists of a stainless steel needle, an indwelling needle, a pressure measuring catheter, and a needle tube sheath. The stainless steel needle consists of a needle body, a needle seat, and a handle. The needle body has a blood return groove on its wall, and the needle seat has a tail plug at its tail end. The indwelling needle consists of an indwelling needle tube, a catheter seat, and a rubber check valve. The indwelling needle tube is a transparent plastic tube. The catheter seat has a side tube that connects to the pressure measuring catheter. The pressure measuring catheter has a hemostatic clamp. The rubber check valve is located at the rear edge of the side tube opening inside the catheter seat. The needle tube sheath is fitted over the indwelling needle tube. This utility model has a simple structure, is easy to use, can effectively improve the success rate of arterial puncture and catheter placement, reduce patient pain and economic burden, and avoid contamination caused by blood spillage.

[0005] After analysis, we believe that the technical solution described in the literature is still insufficient and needs to be improved. The problem is that the product has a blood return groove on the needle wall of the puncture needle. So as long as the needle enters the artery, blood return will form between the indwelling needle and the needle. However, it still cannot guarantee whether the indwelling needle has also entered the artery. This is because, obviously, even if the indwelling needle has not entered the artery, the arterial blood that has entered the inner lumen of the needle will still enter the indwelling needle tube through the blood return groove, causing blood return and pulsation. Therefore, this technical solution still cannot confirm or guarantee whether the indwelling needle tube is placed in the artery. Utility Model Content

[0006] The technical objective of this utility model is to provide an arterial puncture needle that accurately and timely indicates whether the indwelling needle has been successfully placed. It can accurately, timely, and reliably indicate whether the indwelling needle puncture has been successful, which can greatly improve the efficiency of successful indwelling needle placement during arterial puncture. Moreover, the structural design is more reasonable and simple, easy to operate, and the indication effect is clear at a glance. It has good effect, low manufacturing difficulty, and is suitable for popularization and promotion.

[0008] Furthermore, the distance between the blood return guiding hole and the foremost tip of the indwelling needle tube in this utility model is set to 2-3 mm.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: The above-mentioned structural design ensures that during arterial puncture, arterial blood will continuously and stably flow from the blood return guiding hole into the groove on the side wall of the steel needle and into the blood return indicator tube only after the indwelling needle has entered the arterial vessel. By observing the continuous blood return, including the pulsating color, in the blood return indicator tube, one can accurately determine whether the indwelling needle has been successfully placed. Furthermore, the blood return guiding hole is located at the tip of the indwelling needle, so once the indwelling needle enters the arterial vessel, it will be immediately apparent from the blood flow and pulsation in the blood return indicator tube, thus providing excellent timeliness.
