Disposable electronic endoscope

Abstract

The invention relates to a disposable electronic endoscope which comprises an insertion part (1) and a handle (2) which are detachably connected. When the endoscope is used, the handle (2) is connected with a host through a video connecting line, the insertion part (1) comprises a head end (11), a bending part (12) and a catheter (13) which are sequentially connected, the catheter (13) is connected with the handle (2), the head end (11) is provided with a water vapor opening, an instrument channel opening, a lens (113) and a lens base used for installing the lens (113), a through inner cavity is formed in the catheter (13) and comprises an instrument channel, a water vapor channel, a signal line channel and a steel wire channel which are independently arranged, and the handle (2) is provided with a bending control device (223) used for being connected with a steel wire. Compared with the prior art, the disposable electronic endoscope has the advantages of reducing cost, preventing cross infection and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of medical equipment, in particular to a disposable electronic endoscope. Background technique [0002] Electronic endoscope is a commonly used medical device, which enters the human body through the natural orifice of the human body or through a small incision made by surgery, and can directly peep into the changes of relevant parts. Most of the existing endoscopes are reusable endoscopes. Due to the need for repeated use, in order to avoid cross-infection between patients, each endoscope must go through strict and complicated disinfection procedures after use, which makes the endoscope The structural design of the mirror is extremely complicated, and the production and design costs are high.

Problems solved by technology

Most of the existing endoscopes are reusable endoscopes. Due to the need for repeated use, in order to avoid cross-infection between patients, each endoscope must go through strict and complicated disinfection procedures after use, which makes the endoscope The structural design of the mirror is extremely cumbersome, and the production and design costs are high

Because each disinfection process takes at least 20 minutes, the hospital also needs to set up a special disinfection room, equipped with special decontamination equipment and corresponding decontamination personnel, which further increases the cost of using the endoscope, and frequent cleaning and The disinfection process will produce a large amount of liquid chemical waste, which also aggravates environmental pollution

On the other hand, since the completeness of disinfection cannot be determined, patients still need to bear the risk of cross-infection caused by incomplete disinfection

That is to say, it is difficult for traditional endoscopes to realize the functions of endoscopes with low cost and relatively simple composition structure, and to achieve the one-time use of lens components
