This invention relates to the field of
medical device technology and discloses an integrated
thoracentesis assembly, including a drainage tube and a display. A puncture needle is disposed within the drainage tube, and the front end of the puncture needle has a puncture needle expansion section. The expansion section includes a self-puncture tip, a tapered expansion segment, and a main
body segment. The puncture needle enters the
pleural cavity through the expansion section, eliminating the need for guidewire
insertion and dilation, eliminating the
window period, preventing air from entering the
pleural cavity, and reducing the risk of repeated punctures and infection. This invention achieves one-step puncture and
catheter placement by overlapping the puncture needle and drainage tube, inserting them simultaneously during puncture, removing the inner core after successful
insertion, and leaving the outer tube in place. This eliminates the need for guidewire
insertion and dilation, significantly simplifying the operation. The drainage tube is equipped with a valve-type one-way valve to maintain a seal during puncture, solving the problem of tissue debris blockage in the absence of a needle core.
