Description

1 TARIFF SURGICAL CARTILAGE CUTTER TECHNICAL AREA 5 This invention is intended for use in all surgical procedures where cartilage needs to be cut. It has been developed. 20-30 to break cartilage into pieces ranging from 0.5-1.5 mm. It is used for a duration of seconds. The invention specifically addresses the use of a scalpel or dermatome blade in surgical procedures. Instead of cutting cartilage with a manual method, a universal electric surgical micromotor a surgical cartilage that automates and speeds up the cutting process It is related to the food processor. STATE OF THE ART 15 Cartilage tissue is frequently reshaped or removed during surgical procedures. It is a tough but flexible tissue that is needed. In traditional methods, surgeons remove cartilage. various knives, scissors, or tools for manually cutting or shaping They use hand instruments such as the rongeur. These methods rely on the surgeon's manual dexterity and It requires precision. However, manual techniques can present challenges; especially with thick or 20-inch fabrics. Cutting through tough cartilage tissue can be difficult, and factors such as surgeon's hand fatigue can also play a role. It can affect accuracy. To meet these needs, motorized tools have been developed. Motorized cartilage The cutters allow the surgeon to apply less physical force to the instrument and are 25 They allow for precise, controlled cuts. These devices are typically rotary. high-speed cutting tools such as saws, micromotors, or ultrasonic blades It consists of components. This allows for precise and rapid shaping of the cartilage as desired. It is chopped in this way. In addition, some techniques involve cutting the cartilage using a laser. Lasers cut cartilage by vaporizing or burning it with high energy, which makes it more efficient. 2 This can result in minimal tissue damage and minimal bleeding. However, laser technology... It is usually more expensive and requires specialized training. Cartilage cutting is a procedure that depends on the type of surgery, the characteristics of the cartilage, and the surgeon's approach. This can be done using many different tools and techniques, depending on preference. There are 5 in this field. As new technologies develop, the use of more innovative and more precise techniques It is expected to increase. A piece of cartilage can be taken from the ear, nose, or ribs. Bone miller (bone The cartilage is manually crushed using a bone grinder. When crushed, 10% of the cartilage... The nerves inside would also be crushed, and the desired result is that the nerves are not crushed. Currently, cartilage cutting is done manually with a dermatome blade. Depending on the size, it takes 5-20 minutes to make. Then it's chopped. The cartilage is placed inside the nose like a mortar. Another problem with the current state of the technology is during this manual cutting process. There is a risk of hand cuts. This also creates a problem in terms of occupational health and safety. In conclusion, the technology that exists and is currently in use eliminating shortcomings and disadvantages related to structures and practices 20 The need to remove it necessitates an improvement in the relevant technical field. It makes it possible. DEFINITION OF INVENTION The present invention aims to eliminate the aforementioned disadvantages and the related technical 25 scalpels or dermatomes in surgical procedures to bring new advantages to the field Instead of manually cutting cartilage with a knife, a universal electric knife is a great option. a surgical micromotor that automates and speeds up the cutting process It relates to surgical cartilage cutters. In surgical procedures (especially maxillofacial and rhinoplasty surgeries), human Cartilage, whether naturally occurring or not, is cut and reduced to the desired dimensions. The process of bringing it in (usually in the form of cubes between 0.5 mm and 3 mm) is done by a doctor. 3 or the nurse will use a scalpel or dermatom blade (by hand) to 10 to a cutting procedure that varies between minutes (depending on the size of the cartilage and the desired measurement) This is done as a result of the cutting process. These mentioned times are for an operation. very long periods of time resulting in time savings or eliminating the need for additional personnel. This has created a need for improvement in order to remove it. The duration of surgical procedures is 5 Shortening the duration is beneficial for patient health and safety, and for reducing surgical costs. This is very important, and there are many research, development, and regulatory efforts related to this topic. This invention is being developed to shorten surgery times and eliminate the need for additional personnel. It is designed to eliminate. This invention makes cartilage cutting during surgical procedures a surgical universal. Surgery is accelerated compared to manual cutting with the help of a micromotor with a connector. It is designed to shorten their duration. The problems mentioned above On the contrary, there is no risk of a hand being cut off. Furthermore, there is no risk of nerve crushing. That situation would also be out of the question. Because the invention's blade is very sharp. 15 This structure prevents the crushing of nerves in the cartilage. Another advantage of the invention is that it can work with a universal medical micromotor. The reason for this is that the inlet section at the tip of the mouth of the invention is compatible with universal micromotors. It is designed to be suitable. 20 Because the invention is relatively heavy, its center of gravity is low, and therefore its use It is easy to hold during the procedure and does not slip. The cartilage is larger when desired. The product can be run for a shorter time, or for a longer time if the cartilage is small and desired. The subject of the invention is a surgical cartilage slicer in larger or smaller sizes. They can be produced in different diameters and sizes.
