Automated Colonoscopy Assist Device

Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic auxiliary device for colonoscopy. The automatic auxiliary device consists of a rotary pressing device, a telescopic rod device, a control device and a supporting frame, wherein the telescopic rod device is fixedly arranged on the control device; the rotary pressing device is fixedly arranged on the telescopic rod device; the supporting frame is arranged on the rotary pressing device. The automatic auxiliary device disclosed by the invention can be automatically operated, and is convenient in operation, safe and reliable; no auxiliary persons are needed; an operator can independently perform microscopic examination on a patient according to specific situations during colonoscope inserting and adjusts a pressing part, the angle, the depth and the like, so that various problems caused by improper matching and insufficient strength of an assistant are avoided; more accurate colonoscopy is realized, and the examination time is shortened, so that pains of patients are alleviated, the success rate of total colonoscopy is improved, the working efficiency is improved, the occurrence of medical accidents such as enterorrhagid and enterobrosis is avoided, the labor intensity of medical workers is reduced, and the medical cost is reduced; the automatic auxiliary device has major significance for examining and treating colorectal diseases.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical device, in particular to an automatic colonoscopy auxiliary device. Background technique [0002] Colonoscopy is mainly used for the diagnosis and treatment of colorectal diseases, and it is an important method for early screening of colon cancer. In addition, non-invasive colon polypectomy and other operations can also be performed. Because of its advantages such as good curative effect, high accuracy, and timely diagnosis, colonoscopy Examination is widely used clinically. The colonoscope is long and the material is hard and straight. It is easy to form loops during the insertion process or cannot follow the curvature of the intestinal cavity when passing through the curved part of the intestinal cavity, which makes it difficult to pass the endoscope. The colon is located in the abdominal cavity and is curved, with many folds in the intestine. , most of them are not fixed and have mobility, especially the sigmoid c...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the process of inserting the endoscope into the curved intestinal canal, the mirror axis often deviates temporarily. If the endoscope continues to be inserted under the deflected state of the mirror axis, it is difficult for the endoscope to pass through, and other personnel are required to assist in pressing the relevant anatomical parts. The deviated mirror axis is corrected to a straight line, which is convenient for entering the mirror. However, in the process of manual assistance, it is difficult to accurately understand the position, angle and depth of the operator's need for assistance in time, causing improper cooperation; at the same time, some patients have too thick abdominal subcutaneous fat, It is difficult for the assistant to accurately assist the pressing to the relevant parts and the required depth, resulting in inaccurate pressing volume and parts, prolonging the inspection time, and even causing various complications such as intestinal bleeding and intestinal perforation, which not only brings more complications to patients Painful, but also brings a certain risk of diagnosis and treatment

When it is difficult to insert during the inspection, the patient can also choose to change the position quickly with a colonoscope in the ordinary colonoscopy, and use the running of the intestinal tube and the effect of gravity to reduce the curvature and continue the operation, which undoubtedly adds a huge burden to the patient. It is painful, and it also increases the risk of the examination process. In the process of assisting the compression, the assistant has been squatting for a long time or bending forward to perform operations such as pressing and lifting the patient, which consumes a lot of physical strength, especially when using bottom-up support. Pressing the abdominal wall in a lifting style often concentrates a lot of force on the waist, causing problems such as lumbar muscle strain of the assistant, which endangers his health. At present, colonoscopy lacks auxiliary devices, and the existing patents have not been retrieved.
