Detailed Implementation

[0039] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which constitute a part of this application and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0040] The technical solution of this application and how the technical solution of this application solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments.

[0041] Example 1

[0042] A specific embodiment of this utility model discloses a device for collecting patient excrement, such as... Figure 1 As shown. The device for collecting patient excrement includes a collection bag 1, a first fixing part 2, and a second fixing part 3.

[0043] Collection bag 1 is used to collect excrement and is made of a stretchable film. Collection bag 1 is pleated in its folded state and unfolds when open. Therefore, when not in use, the pleated collection bag 1 is small in size and easy to store and store.

[0044] The first fixing part 2 can be used to fix the collection bag 1 around the patient's anus.

[0045] The first fixing part 2 includes a central part 201 and tail wings 202 located on both sides of the central part 201 and connected to the central part 201. The tail wings 202 include a first tail wing 2021 and a second tail wing 2022. The first ends of the first tail wing 2021, the central part 201, and the second tail wing 2022 form a first arc-shaped notch; the second ends of the first tail wing 2021, the central part 201, and the second tail wing 2022 form a second arc-shaped notch. The first arc-shaped notch is used to avoid or not affect other organs of the patient (such as reproductive organs), and the second arc-shaped notch is used to adapt to the contour of the buttock muscles. The setting of the arc-shaped notches (the first arc-shaped notch and the second arc-shaped notch) can reduce the contact area between the first fixing part 2 and the patient's skin, thereby reducing the friction of the first fixing part 2 on the skin, improving the breathability of the device, reducing skin damage, and better conforming to the skin to prevent leakage or displacement.

[0046] The middle section 201 has a central opening (not shown in the figure), which is connected to the opening 101 of the collection bag 1 (e.g., by heat pressing) or integrally formed. Figure 1 The central opening is circular. Alternatively, the central opening can be elliptical, rectangular, or rhomboid. The central opening faces the patient's anus, and excrement discharged from the patient's anus falls into the collection bag 1 through the central opening.

[0047] The second fixing part 3 is connected to the patient's thigh, which can fix the collection bag 1 and the first fixing part around the patient's anus, that is, to reinforce the collection bag 1 around the patient's anus a second time.

[0048] The second fixing part 3 includes a first unit 301 and a second unit 302. Both the first unit 301 and the second unit 302 are strip-shaped. The first unit 301 and the second unit 302 are respectively connected to the side of the first tail fin 2021 and the second tail fin 2022 away from the middle part 201.

[0049] Compared to the annular fixing part in the prior art, the first fixing part 2 of the collection device for patient excrement of this utility model has a first arc-shaped notch and a second arc-shaped notch. The first arc-shaped notch is used to avoid or not affect other organs of the patient (such as reproductive organs), and the second arc-shaped notch is used to adapt to the contour of the buttock muscles. The setting of the arc-shaped notches (the first arc-shaped notch and the second arc-shaped notch) can reduce the contact area between the first fixing part 2 and the patient's skin, thereby reducing the friction between the first fixing part 2 and the skin, improving the breathability of the device, reducing skin damage, and better conforming to the skin to prevent leakage or displacement. The tail wing 202 of the first fixing part 2 can increase the contact area between the fixing part and the patient's skin; the second fixing part 3 can provide a second reinforcement to the collection bag 1 around the patient's anus, making the collection bag of this utility model less prone to falling off than the collection bag with an annular fixing part in the prior art.

[0050] Both the first fixing part 2 and the second fixing part 3 include an adhesive portion. The adhesive portion includes an adhesive part. Optionally, the adhesive portion may be disposed on one or both sides of the first fixing part 2 and the second fixing part 3. The adhesive portion may completely cover the first fixing part 2 and the second fixing part 3 or at least partially cover the first fixing part 2 and the second fixing part 3, for example, by being spaced apart on the first fixing part 2 and the second fixing part 3.

[0051] The adhesive portion completely covers the first fixing part 2 and the second fixing part 3, which helps to better secure the collection device.

[0052] The spacing between adhesive patches improves breathability and reduces the amount of adhesive used in the patch.

[0053] If the adhesive portion is applied only to one side of the first fixing part 2 and the second fixing part 3, then the adhesive portion is applied to the side of the first fixing part 2 and the second fixing part 3 that contacts the patient's skin.

[0054] In practice, the opening 101 of the collection bag 1 faces the patient's anus, allowing excrement discharged from the patient's anus to fall into the collection bag 1 through the opening 101. Then, the middle portion 201 of the first fixing part 2 is fixed around the patient's anus, followed by the fixing of two tail wings 202, extending from around the anus to the outer side of the groin. Finally, the second fixing part 3 is fixed, fixing the first unit 301 and the second unit 302 to the inner thigh of the patient, extending from the groin towards the knee joint.

[0055] The present invention relates to a collection device for patient excrement, comprising a collection bag 1, a first fixing part 2, and a second fixing part 3, all made of flexible materials, without any hard parts, thus reducing the risk of pressure injury to the patient.

[0056] Meanwhile, the collection device for patient excrement of this utility model has a simple structure, low cost, and simple operation.

[0057] Compared with existing technologies, the patient excrement collection device provided in this embodiment solves the problems of poor fixation and easy detachment of collection bags in existing technologies. Furthermore, the patient excrement collection device provided in this embodiment is made of flexible material and contains no rigid parts, reducing the risk of pressure injury to the patient. In addition, the patient excrement collection device of this invention has a simple structure, low cost, and is easy to operate.

[0058] Example 2

[0059] Another specific embodiment of this utility model is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, the length of the second fixing part 3 is adjustable, which can accommodate patients with different leg lengths.

[0060] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, a tear line 4 is provided on the first unit 301 or the second unit 302, which can tear the second fixing part 3 along the tear line 4, thereby shortening the length of the second fixing part 3 to adapt to the shorter leg length of the patient.

[0061] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, multiple tear lines 4 are provided on the first unit 301 or the second unit 302. The tear line 4 corresponding to the length adapted to the patient's leg length can be selected for tearing operation, thereby shortening the length of the second fixing part 3 to be adapted to the patient's leg length.

[0062] Optionally, the adhesive portion of the second fixation part 3 is provided on both sides of the second fixation part 3, for fixing the second fixation part 3 to the patient's skin after folding. Therefore, the second fixation part 3 can be folded according to the patient's different leg lengths, thereby shortening the length of the second fixation part 3 to adapt to the patient's leg length.

[0063] The length of the second fixing part of the collection device for patient excrement provided in this embodiment is adjustable, so that the collection device for patient excrement provided in this embodiment can be adapted to patients with different leg lengths.

[0064] Example 3

[0065] Another specific embodiment of this utility model is as follows: Figures 4 to 7 As shown, based on Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2, the size of the first fixing part 2 is adjustable to accommodate different leg thicknesses of different patients.

[0066] Optionally, such as Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, the first fixing part 2 is provided with two sets of tear lines 4, which are respectively provided on the first tail fin 2021 and the second tail fin 2022. The first fixing part 2 can be torn along the tear lines 4, thereby reducing the size of the first fixing part 2 to adapt to the patient's smaller leg size.

[0067] Optionally, such as Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the first fixing part 2 is provided with four sets of tear lines 4, of which two sets of tear lines 4 are provided on the first tail fin 2021 and the other two sets of tear lines 4 are provided on the second tail fin 2022. The tear line 4 corresponding to the size adapted to the patient's leg thickness can be selected for the tearing operation, thereby reducing the size of the first fixing part 2 to be adapted to the patient's leg thickness.

[0068] Optionally, six or eight tear lines 4 may also be provided on the first fixing part 2.

[0069] Optionally, the adhesive portion of the first fixation part 2 is provided on both sides of the first fixation part 2, for fixing the first fixation part 2 to the patient's skin after folding. Therefore, the first fixation part 2 can be folded according to the patient's different leg thickness, thereby reducing the size of the first fixation part 2 to adapt to the patient's leg thickness.

[0070] The size of the first fixing part of the collection device for patient excrement provided in this embodiment is adjustable, so that the collection device for patient excrement provided in this embodiment can be adapted to patients with different leg circumferences.

[0071] Example 4

[0072] Another specific embodiment of this utility model is as follows: Figure 8 , Figure 9 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, Embodiment 2, or Embodiment 3, the collection bag 1 of the patient excrement collection device is provided with a catheter connection structure 5 on its exterior. The catheter connection structure 5 includes a first aluminum film and a second aluminum film arranged opposite each other. The two aluminum films are sealed on both sides, forming a channel in the middle, allowing the catheter to pass through the channel and the corresponding catheter through-hole 102 on the collection bag 1 to enter the interior of the collection bag 1. The catheter through-hole 102 is located on the collection bag 1, near the opening 101, and communicates with the channel. The surface of the first aluminum film facing away from the second aluminum film is fixedly connected to the collection bag 1 to fix the catheter connection structure 5 to the outer surface of the collection bag 1.

[0073] Optionally, the length of the conduit connection structure 5 is 100 mm to 200 mm.

[0074] Because the conduit connection structure 5 is composed of two aluminum films, it has a self-sealing property. When using the conduit connection structure 5, the conduit can be inserted into the channel of the conduit connection structure 5, and the two aluminum films can be spread open for easy use. When the conduit connection structure 5 is not in use, simply pressing the two aluminum films against each other with your hands will achieve self-sealing of the conduit connection structure 5, that is, sealing both ends of the channel, reducing the risk of excrement overflowing from the conduit connection structure 5 when it is not in use.

[0075] In addition, the catheter connection structure 5 is made of aluminum membrane and has no rigid components, reducing the risk of pressure injury to patients.

[0076] Optionally, an adhesive label can be used to seal the opening of the channel of the conduit connection structure 5 at the end away from the conduit through-hole 102; when using the conduit, the adhesive label is opened to expose the opening of the channel; when removing the conduit, the adhesive label is used to seal and hide the opening of the channel. The adhesive label can be repeatedly opened and closed when the conduit is repeatedly inserted and removed.

[0077] The catheter connection structure 5 is used to insert a catheter that delivers flushing fluid to the patient's anus, thereby providing cleansing. The catheter can also deliver a lubricant to the patient's anus. This lubricant can be a glycerin enema. Clinically, some patients (e.g., patients with pancreatitis) require laparotomy, which stimulates defecation to reduce intra-abdominal pressure. A glycerin enema can be delivered via catheter to promote defecation while collecting the patient's excrement for laparotomy.

[0078] When using the catheter connection structure 5, care should be taken to ensure that the liquid level of the excrement in the collection bag 1 is lower than the catheter through hole 102, thereby reducing the risk of excrement overflowing from the catheter connection structure 5 when the catheter is inserted.

[0079] The collection device for patient excrement provided in this embodiment has a self-sealing catheter connection structure 5, which facilitates anal cleaning and delivery of lubricant into the anus, while effectively reducing the risk of excrement overflowing from the catheter connection structure 5.

[0080] Example 5

[0081] Another specific embodiment of this utility model is as follows: Figure 10 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, Embodiment 2, Embodiment 3 or Embodiment 4, the collection bag 1 of the collection device for collecting patient excrement in this embodiment is provided with a finger cot 6.

[0082] Optionally, the finger cot 6 is integrally formed with the collection bag 1. The length of the finger cot 6 can be between 55 mm and 95 mm, and the width of the finger cot 6 can be between 15 mm and 20 mm, which is adapted to the length and width of an adult's finger.

[0083] The number of finger cots 6 can be one or more. Optionally, the number of finger cots 6 is one, to facilitate the insertion of the medical staff's index finger into the patient's anus. Optionally, the number of finger cots 6 is two, such as... Figure 10 As shown, it includes a first finger sleeve 601 and a second finger sleeve 602. The index finger of the medical staff can be inserted into the patient's internal anus through the first finger sleeve 601, and the middle finger of the medical staff can be inserted into the patient's internal anus through the second finger sleeve 602, thereby providing convenience for the medical staff to stimulate the internal anus.

[0084] When in use, as the medical staff inserts their fingers into the finger cot 6 and into the collection bag 1, the outer surface of the finger cot 6, which was in contact with the fingers when it was outside the collection bag 1, becomes the inner surface of the finger cot 6 after it enters the collection bag 1; the inner surface of the finger cot 6, which was not in contact with the fingers when it was outside the collection bag 1, becomes the outer surface of the finger cot 6 that contacts the anus after it enters the collection bag 1.

[0085] The collection device for patient excrement provided in this embodiment has a finger sleeve 6, which makes it convenient for medical staff to stimulate the internal anus with their fingers. At the same time, the setting of the finger sleeve 6 does not affect the airtightness of the collection bag 1, so the setting of the finger sleeve 6 will not cause the excrement to overflow.

[0086] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
