Autonomous urethral catheterization device and method

Abstract

The invention discloses an autonomous urethral catheterization device and method. The device comprises a urethral pump, a boost device and a handheld activator, wherein the urethral pump comprises a pump body; an anti-drop disc is arranged at the front end of the pump body; a sealing valve, a sealing magnet, drainage blades and a magnetic induction rotating body are arranged in the pump body; the magnetic induction rotating body is arranged in the drainage blades; the sealing magnet is arranged in the sealing valve; the boost device comprises a handheld end and a boost rod; the handheld activator comprises a shell; a control switch and an indicator light are arranged on the top of the shell; a control circuit board, a battery, a rotating motor and a urethral pump activator are arranged inside the shell; and the control circuit board, the battery, the rotating motor and the urethral pump activator are sequentially connected through lines. According to the device disclosed by the invention, urethral catheterization of a patient every day is not needed, a urine drainage bag of the patient is not used, the problems such as extremely high discomfort brought to the patient due to frequent urethral catheterization and large-area infection caused by ordinary catheters can be solved, the device disclosed by the invention is convenient to use, and the incidence rate of urethral diseases is greatly reduced.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a self-dominant urine device and method, and belongs to the technical field of medical equipment. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the development of modern medical technology, medical interventional catheters have been widely used, and the scope has been expanded day by day, greatly improving the medical level. As a kind of interventional catheter, the urinary catheter is widely used. Approximately, inpatients need an indwelling urinary catheter. An ordinary urinary catheter needs to be inserted into the urethra 4-8 times a day (> 120 times), so it is only suitable for patients who can insert themselves. Since ordinary urinary catheters may cause trauma to the urethra, ordinary urinary catheters are not suitable for patients with limited vision or cognitive ability. Some patients may be reluctant to touch their genitals repeatedly, and dislike the implantation of a urinary catheter. These factors usually lead...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Once catheter-associated urinary tract infection occurs, it will inevitably lead to increased medical costs, prolonged hospital stay, increased morbidity and mortality

In addition, it is the largest source of bacteremia in hospitalized patients, often leading to additional antibiotics

According to statistics, the average annual treatment cost is 450-570 million US dollars, resulting in an average length of hospital stay of 1-2 days. If the infection causes complicated bacteremia, the length of hospital stay will be extended by 2.4-4.5 days.

This infection not only brings great suffering to the patient, but also consumes additional health resources
