Description

1 TARIFF AN INJECTION DEVICE FOR USE IN THE HEALTHCARE SECTOR. Technical Area The invention is a device developed for use in the healthcare sector for preparing and dispensing medication using a syringe. with an injection device that facilitates the application and collection of blood samples It is related. State of the Art 10 In the current technology, injection procedures are performed with manually operated injectors. This is implemented. In these systems, the piston is operated manually by healthcare professionals. They are pushed and pulled. These methods are basically intramuscular, intravenous, intradermal and It is commonly used in subcutaneous injection procedures. However, this manual 15 These systems cause various problems. The long-term issues with these manual injector systems are particularly concerning. Prolonged use can lead to occupational problems such as hand fatigue, muscle pain, and tendinitis in healthcare workers. This leads to illnesses. These problems are especially prevalent in demanding work environments. This is becoming apparent. Furthermore, manual piston movement requires different levels of force from each healthcare worker. and causes injections to be given too quickly. This leads to dosage errors, incorrect 20 This leads to complications and risks to patients. Intramuscular Maintaining a constant needle angle during aspiration in injections is quite difficult, which can damage the tissue. This can lead to injuries, pain, and improper application. In the known state of the art, manual checking of syringes is performed by healthcare personnel 25 Although it is a frequently used method, it involves various challenges and risks. Firstly, serious problems can arise regarding maintaining sterility. The syringe... Touching it by hand and performing the procedure manually increases the risk of compromising a sterile environment. This increases the risk of infection, especially in intensive care units, operating rooms, or other settings. When working with high patient volumes, sterility is of vital importance. In this situation, infection is a concern. Increased risk can negatively affect the patient's recovery process and lead to complications. This can lead to its development. Another important challenge is the speed of drug administration. and manual control of the duration, especially slow intravenous administration. In necessary medical treatments such as antibiotics, chemotherapy, or heart medications, the medication must be administered as needed. 2 For example, delivering it at a constant rate is critically important. During manual application, this... Maintaining balance is crucial. Administering medication too quickly or too slowly can lead to complications. It can either reduce its effectiveness or increase its side effects. Another one of the most common is... One of the problems is vascular infiltration. This refers to the leakage of drugs outside the blood vessels, i.e., into the blood vessels. If it deviates from its normal path, it can cause damage and pain to local tissues. Some 5 Drugs, especially chemotherapy agents, can cause serious injuries when they infiltrate tissues, including the skin. It can lead to ulcerations and tissue loss. Also, administering medications at the wrong rate. By applying high pressure into the blood vessel, it can damage the vessel walls and cause harm to the patient. It can lead to serious complications. The use of manual syringes should be avoided in emergency situations or by untrained healthcare professionals. This can be complex and time-consuming for the staff, and this can affect the patient's treatment. This can cause delays. These restrictions make manual labor in healthcare services difficult. This limits the effectiveness and safety of the injectors. The limitations and shortcomings of current technological solutions include the needle during injection. Problems such as the lack of a device to secure the tip are common in injection devices. This necessitates further development. Brief Description of the Invention 20 The present invention aims to eliminate the aforementioned disadvantages and contribute to the relevant technical field. injectors developed to provide new advantages and for use in the healthcare sector. a device that facilitates drug preparation, drug administration, and blood sample collection processes. It relates to the injection device. 25 The device described in the invention eliminates the manual piston movement found in existing technology. Hand fatigue and related tendinitis, trigger finger caused by manual piston movement, It helps reduce occupational diseases such as ganglion cysts. The invention enables the needle angle to remain constant during injection or aspiration procedures. By facilitating the process, it reduces potential pain and tissue damage, and also Nurse hand change during intramuscular, intradermal and subcutaneous administration. 3 It facilitates drug injection by eliminating the need for it. This prevents the risk of medical error and ensures that the medication is administered at the correct dose. The invention describes an apparatus that prevents the needle from moving during blood or sample collection with a syringe. It prevents and avoids vascular infiltrations. All 5 procedures performed using a syringe. In drug administration, it is also important to ensure that the procedure is performed easily and safely and that sterility is maintained. It ensures its preservation. It is also used for preparing medicines with apparatus, ampoules or vials. The aim is to provide ease of use in the syringe. The invention enables the automation of the syringe piston, allowing the needle to be removed 10 times when drawing blood with the syringe. the process that occurs when withdrawing the plunger of the syringe after the tip has entered the vein to prevent strain, displacement, and slippage of the needle tip from the vein This is provided. In addition, instead of a manual piston, the user only has mechanical control. Because it will be moved by pressing buttons, it reduces the risk of injury from medical cutting and piercing instruments. It also reduces the risk of infection. This makes injection procedures safer, more precise, and 15 It ensures that it becomes a standard. In addition, the invention incorporates a digital control system (third-party) The reservoir ensures that each injection process is carried out at the same speed and pressure. This minimizes dosage errors and makes processes standardized and more reliable. It is coming. In addition, thanks to the components contained in the aforementioned third chamber, the injector The piston is not directly touched. This helps to maintain sterility. This helps to reduce the risk of infection. The components contained in the third chamber of the device subject to the invention are to be administered slowly into the vein. with necessary medications such as antibiotics or chemotherapy, by adjusting the speed and duration correctly. It minimizes vascular infiltrations. 25 The apparatus described in the invention eliminates the need for injectors used in the known state of the art. By removing it, it can be used many times due to its constituent elements. Multiple uses. This advantage allows for cost savings.
