Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to a transvaginal detector for endometrial cancer. Background Art

[0002] Gynecological examination mainly includes full body examination, abdominal examination and pelvic examination. Check the vulva, vagina, cervix and uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries and parauterine tissue and pelvic lining. The main function is to make early diagnosis, prevention and early treatment of some gynecological diseases. Gynecological examination is different from other departments, and pelvic examination is a unique examination of gynecological examination. After women find that they are infected with gynecological diseases, they must go to a regular hospital for professional examination, and annual physical examination is also very important.

[0003] After searching the patent number CN218922533U, a transvaginal inspection device for endometrial cancer is disclosed, wherein the inspection component is slidably mounted on the protective component, the outer transparent sleeve is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the inner transparent tube, the outer sleeve is sleeved on the outer wall of the inner transparent tube, the first camera is fixedly mounted on the left side of the top end of the outer sleeve, the second camera is fixedly mounted on the upper left end of the outer wall of the outer sleeve, and the third camera is fixedly mounted on the upper right end of the inner wall of the outer sleeve. Firstly, the inner transparent tube and the outer transparent sleeve are an integrated structure and are made of transparent material, which does not affect the subsequent camera shooting and also achieves the purpose of waterproofing. Secondly, the outer sleeve can slide and rotate along the air-avoiding cavity between the inner transparent tube and the outer transparent sleeve, which is convenient for medical staff to adjust and operate. Finally, by shooting at different positions and angles of the first camera, the second camera and the third camera, it is helpful to assist medical staff to conduct a more comprehensive inspection of the affected part in the patient's uterus.

[0004] Compared with the prior art, the patent with patent number CN218922533U has an inner transparent tube and an outer transparent sleeve as an integrated structure, and adopts a transparent material, which does not affect the subsequent camera shooting and also achieves the purpose of waterproofing. Secondly, the outer sleeve can slide and rotate along the air-avoiding cavity between the inner transparent tube and the outer transparent sleeve, which is beneficial for medical staff to adjust the operation. Finally, through the shooting of the first camera, the second camera and the third camera at different positions and angles, it can help auxiliary medical staff to conduct a more comprehensive inspection of the affected area in the patient's uterus.

[0005] However, in the above scheme, the inner transparent tube and the outer transparent sleeve are used as an integrated structure, and the outer sleeve can slide and rotate along the air-avoiding cavity between the inner transparent tube and the outer transparent sleeve. Since the device needs to enter the patient's body, its cleaning and disinfection process must be very strict. The complex structure may make cleaning and disinfection more difficult, especially in the gaps and rotating parts of the structure. There may be hard-to-reach dead corners. The size and shape of the device may affect the patient's comfort. Moreover, during the operation, it is affected by the vaginal speculum and the movement of the probe is restricted. Therefore, a transvaginal inspection device for endometrial cancer is proposed. Summary of the invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problem in the prior art that when conducting transvaginal examination of endometrial cancer in clinical practice, the traditional instruments use probes for examination, which is not only complicated to operate, but also difficult to carry out examinations at multiple angles. Since a doctor may have to perform multiple examinations every day, the arms may be tired from turning back and forth during the operation, which greatly affects the clinical examination effect and operability. In addition, the cleaning efficiency needs to be improved when multiple patients are waiting in line for treatment. In order to ensure good disinfection without delaying the patient's diagnosis time, a transvaginal examination device for endometrial cancer is proposed.

[0035] The working principle of the transvaginal inspection device for endometrial cancer proposed by the present invention is that when the uterus needs to be inspected, the lady who needs to be inspected lies on the inspection bed in the required posture, and then the sterilized inspection ball 9 is taken out from the disinfection box 13, and the coupling agent is first applied to the inspection ball 9, and then the condom is put on the surface of the inspection ball 9, and then the coupling agent is applied to the outside of the condom, and then the inspection ball 9 is gently sent into the vagina. At this time, the inspector can push the push block 3, and the push block 3 will drive the rack 4 to slide on the surface of the common gear 6. This action will cause the first bevel gear 7 to drive the second bevel gear 8 to rotate, and then drive the inspection ball 9 to rotate. Such a design can maximize the ultrasonic inspection at multiple angles in one direction without rotating the inspection device housing 5, thereby improving the comfort of the inspector and avoiding excessive pressure on the vagina.

[0036] During the operation, if it is necessary to examine the inside of the uterus at multiple angles, the examiner can continue to push the push block 3 to drive the inspection ball 9 to rotate at multiple angles. When the inspection is completed, the obtained image will be recorded in the memory card of the display screen 11 for storage, which is convenient for subsequent observation and analysis.

[0037] After the inspection, the inspection ball 9 is taken out from the inspected person's vagina and put back into the disinfection box 13 for cleaning.
