An intracavity ultrasonic probe isolation sleeve

Abstract

The invention discloses an isolating sleeve of an intra-cavity ultrasonic probe. The isolating sleeve comprises an elastic sleeve body. An elastic hoop is arranged at the opening end of the elastic sleeve body. The isolating sleeve further comprises a U-shaped traction support, the positions of two end openings of the U-shaped traction support are respectively provided with a silica gel band, the tail ends of the two silica gel bands are in contact with the elastic hoop and are rolled towards the front end of the elastic sleeve body to form a ring body along the opening end of the elastic sleeve body along with the elastic hoop, and the front end of the elastic sleeve body is provided with a spherical surface body matched with the front end of the ultrasonic probe. The U-shaped traction support and the silica gel bands are used in cooperation with the elastic sleeve body, the structure is simple, and removal is convenient to achieve; the front end of the elastic sleeve body is in the spherical surface design, and the good attaching performance is achieved; the ultrasonic probe can smoothly enter and leave the cavity under the effect of lubricant; the front end of the elastic sleeve body and the ultrasonic probe are tightly attached without producing bubbles under the effect of coupling agents, ultrasonic waves are basically free of attenuation, diagnosis on an ultrasonic image is not influenced, the clinical requirement is met, and the cross infection and the medical source infection are avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical isolation cover, in particular to an intracavity ultrasonic probe isolation cover, which belongs to the medical and health field and is mainly used for Doppler ultrasonic examination in imaging. Background technique [0002] For a long time, due to the low number of instruments and the number of examiners in clinical intracavity ultrasonography, condoms have been used for endocavity probes that touch the human body. Because they are not special products designed for endocavity probes, problems have often been exposed in clinical use, such as: the front end is easy to Rupture, inconvenient operation, and iatrogenic cross-infection, but due to the small number, it has been neglected. [0003] In recent years, due to the large-scale use of color Doppler ultrasound in clinical examination and the rapid increase in the number of patients, the problem of cross-infection between the examinees has become prominent.

Problems solved by technology

[0002] For a long time, due to the low number of instruments and the number of examiners in clinical intracavity ultrasonography, condoms have been used for endocavity probes that touch the human body. Because they are not special products designed for endocavity probes, problems have often been exposed in clinical use, such as: the front end is easy to Rupture, inconvenient operation, and iatrogenic cross-infection, but due to the small number, it has been neglected

[0003] In recent years, due to the large-scale use of color Doppler ultrasound in clinical examination and the rapid increase in the number of patients, the problem of cross-infection between the examinees has become prominent. Aiming at this problem, there are many solutions and solutions in the market. The main ones can be They can be classified into two categories: (1) Ultrasound probe covers that have applied for many utility model patents since the 1990s, the most representative ones are the "Disposable Sterile Ultrasound Probe Covers" announced on January 13, 2010, Its publication number is CN200920021353; the "special set for vaginal ultrasound probe" announced on February 28, 2007, its publication number is CN2873130, etc.; although the above-mentioned partly solves the problem of cross-infection, there are difficulties in actual mass production and clinical operation Large, the operation can not completely isolate the iatrogenic cross-infection; therefore, it has not been able to be widely promoted, and the safety condom is used instead, but even if it is inserted, the front end is not tightly fitted and there are air bubbles or the condom is too thin and ruptures. The role of isolation cannot be achieved; resulting in many patent applications over the years but none of them have been successfully introduced to the market

(2) In recent years, although the market has introduced the solution of adding disinfectant to the coupling agent, that is, the disinfection coupling agent has been put into clinical use, but it is limited to the use of surface probes and cannot be used in intracavity probes; therefore, the existing solutions and products are not very good. ideal
