Abstract

(57) [Summary] [PROBLEMS] To provide a cleaning / wiping tool capable of easily and hygienically removing dirt from a stoma. SOLUTION: A cleaning / wiping tool C, which forms a cylindrical body by winding up a band-shaped gauze 1 and maintains its winding state by binding the outer periphery thereof with a thread 10, is provided. The folded back portion is positioned at both ends in the width direction so that the cut end of the gauze is not positioned on the end surfaces C1 and C2 of the cylindrical body when wound.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a cleaning and wiping tool for keeping stomas such as artificial bladder and artificial anus clean.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 The excretory opening that is opened in the abdominal wall by surgery to supplement the excretory organs of the urinary system and the digestive system removed for the treatment of the disease is collectively called a stoma. A pouch for storing excrement is attached to and detached from these stomas, but the stoma and its surrounding skin are covered with the pouch, resulting in poor ventilation and easy adhesion of the excrement. Failure to maintain cleanliness could cause skin problems.

[0003] However, in the past, there is no dedicated tool for cleaning and wiping, and at present, each person wipes off dirt with cut gauze.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 However, in the above-mentioned prior art, there is a problem that the warp yarn at the cut end of the gauze often adheres to and remains on the stoma and the skin around the stoma, thereby impairing hygiene.

Further, in urinary tract stomas (urostoma) from which urine always flows out, it is necessary to perform the work of wiping off dirt while receiving the outflowing urine, and there is a problem that the cleaning and wiping work is very difficult. .

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In view of the above problems of the prior art, this invention was created with the aim of providing an optimal tool for cleaning and wiping the stoma, and this cleaning and wiping tool uses a band-shaped gauze. The gauze to be wound is folded back at both ends in the width direction to form a columnar body by winding, and a gauze to be wound is a cleaning / wiping tool that maintains the wound state by binding the outer periphery with a thread. By being folded back as described above, the cut end of the gauze is not positioned on the end face of the cylindrical body when wound up.

[0007]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a cleaning / wiping tool C of the present invention. This cleaning / wiping tool C forms a cylindrical body by winding up a band-like gauze 1 (see FIG. 2), and furthermore, the outer periphery thereof is tightened by a thread 10 to maintain the wound state, thereby forming the cylindrical body. Obtained by shape preservation. Regarding the dimensions of the cleaning and wiping tool C, in this embodiment, in consideration of the versatility with respect to the number of stomas having individual differences, and in consideration of the ease of use by the elderly to easily hold and wipe, Two types of a cylindrical body having a length of 75 mm and a diameter of 13 mm ± 3 mm and a cylinder having a length of 75 mm and 10 mm ± 3 mm are exemplified, but the dimensions are, of course, not limited to these.

[0008] Regarding the cleaning and wiping tool C described above, the gauze 1 to be wound has a width so that the cut end portions 4A and 4A of the gauze are not positioned on the end surfaces C1 and C2 of the cylindrical body when wound. It is configured by being folded back so that the folded back portions are located at the opposite side ends 5 and 6. For this purpose, in this embodiment, first, the gauze 1 is folded from the left and right at the center in the width direction to form the first folded back portion 2A by the left and right folded portions 2B and 2B, and furthermore, the left and right folded portions 2B and 2B. By further folding the outside of each of them, left and right folded portions 2B, 2B and outer folded portions 3B, 3B constitute second folded back portions 3A, 3A (see FIGS. 3 and 4). As a result, at the time of winding, the first folded back portion 2A is located at the side end 5 of the gauze 1 and the second folded back portions 3A, 3A are located at the side end 6, and the cut ends 4A, 4A are It does not appear on both side ends 5 and 6 and is folded inside. Note that the above-described folding method in which the folded back portion is positioned at both ends in the width direction of the gauze is an example, and it is a matter of course that the folding method is not limited to this.

FIG. 5 shows an example in which the cleaning / wiping tool C of the present invention is used for the urostoma S. In this case, the urine is applied by applying the end face C2 or C1 of the cleaning / wiping tool C to the urostoma S. Then, the cleaning and wiping tool C (not shown) is used to wipe off the surrounding dirt to be used.

[0010]

[Effect of the invention]

 The cleaning and wiping implement of the present invention having the above configuration has the following specific effects. Since the whole is formed in a columnar shape, excrement can be received by applying the end face to the stoma. Since it is made of gauze and tied up with a thread without using an adhesive, it retains a columnar shape with appropriate hardness that does not bend carelessly during wiping, while maintaining its original shape. Can keep softness and is soft on skin. Since the cut end of the gauze is not positioned on the end face of the cylindrical body when wound, it is sanitary without the attachment of warp.
