Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of surgical instruments, in particular to a medical suture locking buckle and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Cerclage fixation is one of the oldest attempts to treat fractures. With the advancement of technology, this traditional surgery, wire internal fixation, has made progress in terms of the improvement of tightening instruments, surgical techniques, and clinical applications. Despite this, wire internal fixation still retains its original form relatively intact, that is, by guiding the wire across the fracture line, and then tightening, knotting, and processing the wire stump, the fracture ends are closely aligned and relatively stably fixed in the appropriate position to promote fracture healing.

[0003] Currently, wire fixation and plate fixation are mostly used for fracture fixation. Single-wire closure technology is widely used in clinical practice, but wires may have complications. For patients with low risk of sternal healing complications, wire fixation technology is currently the best closure strategy, but for patients with high risk of sternal healing complications, this technology is not the best choice.

[0004] Wire defects:

[0005] ① It requires high operation skills from surgeons, and the tightness is difficult to control. Too loose fractures will leave cracks between the fracture ends, affecting healing, while too tight fractures will easily break the wire or cut off the bone and soft tissue;

[0006] ② Doctors are easily scratched by the wire, which also irritates patients;

[0007] ③X-rays cannot penetrate the steel wire, which will affect the patient's postoperative X-rays;

[0008] ④ The steel wire may suffer from metal fatigue due to twisting or bending.

[0009] At present, in the market, wire tape is used for bundling to solve the defects of steel wire. The wire tape perfectly solves most of the defects of the above-mentioned steel wire; the wire tape has no sharp corners, which minimizes the harm to personnel; the wire tape itself is radio-transparent, so it has no effect on postoperative X-rays, and its image will not appear on X-rays; the sutures are tightened by using suture tightening instruments, and the existing suture tightening instruments are insufficient in fixing products; the product wire groove is slightly narrow, and there is a slight resistance when the suture passes through, which slightly damages the suture performance, and the product body has multiple concave designs, which makes the suture unevenly stressed when it is wound. Therefore, it is necessary to design a medical suture locking buckle and a method of using the same. Summary of the invention

[0010] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the above problems and to design a medical suture locking buckle and a method of using the same.

[0011] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution of the present invention is a medical suture locking buckle and a method of using the same, comprising an upper locking buckle portion, a lower locking buckle portion being arranged below the upper locking buckle portion, the upper locking buckle portion and the locking buckle being connected via a connecting assembly, a suture pre-knot assembly being arranged on the upper locking buckle portion, an auxiliary hole being arranged on the suture pre-knot assembly, a suture zipper assembly being arranged on the lower locking buckle portion, and a wire passing assembly being provided on the upper locking buckle portion.

[0012] As a further description of the technical solution, the connecting assembly includes a connecting hole arranged on the upper part of the locking buckle and a connecting column arranged on the lower part of the locking buckle, and the connecting column is assembled in the connecting hole.

[0013] As a further description of the present technical solution, the suture pre-knot assembly includes a suture pre-knot column arranged on the upper part of the locking buckle, an auxiliary hole is opened in the suture pre-knot column, and the auxiliary hole passes through the upper part of the locking buckle.

[0014] As a further description of the technical solution, the suture pre-knot post is integrally formed with the upper portion of the locking buckle.

[0015] As a further description of the present technical solution, the suture zipper assembly includes a suture traction wire arranged on the lower part of the locking buckle, and a suture pull rope ring is arranged at the outer end of the suture traction wire.

[0016] As a further description of the technical solution, it is characterized in that the suture traction wire is arranged in the auxiliary hole, and the suture pull rope ring is arranged at the top of the suture pre-knot column.

[0017] As a further description of the present technical solution, the wire passing assembly includes a wire passing groove arranged on the upper part of the locking buckle.

[0018] As a further description of the technical solution, the cross-sectional shape of the wire trough is a herringbone shape.

[0019] A method for using a medical suture locking buckle comprises the following steps:

[0020] Step 1: Remove the suture according to the direction of the suture on the medical suture buckle;

[0021] Step 2: Pass the suture through the part that needs to be fixed, and prepare to tie a knot after wrapping;

[0022] Step 3: Pass the suture end through the suture cable ring, pull the lower part of the locking buckle, and make the suture cable ring drive the suture through the auxiliary hole. At this time, the suture segment passes through the pre-knot on the suture pre-knot column and passes through the thread groove, that is, the upper part of the medical suture locking buckle;

[0023] Step 4: Remove the suture ends from the pre-knot and suture lash loop;

[0025] Step 6: Use an instrument to tighten the suture to the desired tension;

[0026] Step 7: Tie a knot again to secure it, cut off the excess sutures, and complete the operation.

[0027] As a further description of the technical solution, in the step 2, the suture is pre-knotted on the suture pre-knot column, the pre-knotted suture passes through the suture groove, and then the suture is passed through the part that needs to be fixed.

[0028] The beneficial effect is that the medical suture locking buckle of the technical solution has an ingenious structural design, strong practicality, and is easy to operate. The use of this medical suture locking buckle effectively saves the doctor's surgical operation time, improves the operating efficiency of suture surgery, and at the same time, reduces the damage caused by repeated contact with the wound surface.
