Intra-rectal balloon-type ultrasonic prostate treatment head

Abstract

The invention discloses an intra-rectal balloon-type ultrasonic prostate treatment head, belonging to the technical field of medical instruments. The treatment head includes a rod body for inserting into the rectum of a human body, wherein the rod body is of a hollow structure having an open end and the side wall of the rod body is provided with a with notch. The treatment head further includes aballoon arranged in the rod body and a conversion housing fixedly connected with the open end of the rod body, wherein an ultrasonic transducer is fixed in the conversion housing, the open end of theballoon and the open end of the rod body are sealed and fixed and communicates with the inside of the conversion housing, and the balloon is inflated by the water that is charged into the balloon by the conversion housing so that the free end thereof is ejected from the notch of the rod body to be in close contact with the prostate. The heating effect is better and the safety is higher; while thethermal therapy is performed, ultrasound is also used for treatment, so that the treatment effect is better. When obtaining prostatic fluid for clinical prostatic fluid routine examination, manual operation by a doctor is not needed, so that the prostate treatment head is more user-friendly, and the balloon can accurately contact with the prostate to reduce the pain and other discomfort of a patient.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical devices, and relates to a prostate treatment device, in particular to an intrarectal balloon type ultrasonic prostate treatment head. Background technique [0002] Prostate disease is a series of symptoms of prostate disease caused by prostate infection, excessive strain of the prostate, endocrine disorders, etc. There is no effective clinical treatment. Heating therapy belongs to physical factor therapy, and its function is to accelerate the blood circulation of prostate tissue, promote the absorption of drugs by prostate tissue, and facilitate the discharge of inflammatory substances. At present, there are two main methods of physical therapy for the prostate: [0003] The first one is sitz bath, take a pot of hot water with a suitable temperature, and the patient sits in the hot water to treat the prostate with hyperthermia. Since the prostate is in the body, it is difficult to achieve the des...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] The first one is sitz bath, take a pot of hot water with a suitable temperature, and the patient sits in the hot water to treat the prostate with hyperthermia. Since the prostate is in the body, it is difficult to achieve the desired effect through sitz bath;

[0004] The second is to place a heating rod in the rectum, and apply a certain voltage to the heating element of the heating rod to make the heating rod generate heat for prostate hyperthermia. This device has the following three disadvantages: First, there is a space inside the rectum to accommodate excrement , commonly known as rectal pot, the prostate is on the back wall of the rectum, and a rigid heating rod is difficult to touch the prostate when it cannot be operated visually; second, the diameter of the heating rod is generally 18-22mm, which brings a lot of pain to the patient when used; It is a potential risk that the heating element of the heating rod wets the inside of the rectum, and if a leakage occurs, it will cause great harm to the patient
