Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of medical auxiliary equipment, and in particular to equipment for hysteroscopic surgery. Background Art
[0002] Hysteroscopic surgery requires saline solution to distend the uterus, so that the uterine cavity is in an expanded state for easy operation. The saline solution enters the uterine cavity through the water inlet pipe, and then is discharged from the uterine cavity along with blood and water through the drainage pipe into the waste liquid collection bucket. In order to maintain the balance of fluids in the body and ensure the safety of the operation, the amount of saline solution in and out needs to be measured. In addition, a filter is installed in the waste liquid collection bucket to filter tissues in the waste liquid, such as fibroid fragments and endometrial biopsy tissue, for further testing. Before testing, the specimen tissue needs to be cleaned. To facilitate the subsequent full penetration of the fixative, tissues that are too large, such as fibroid fragments larger than 1 cm, need to be cut into small pieces of 5-10 mm with sterile scissors. Then, the specimen is placed in the specimen box with tweezers and the fixative is added for testing, which is relatively inconvenient. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The present invention aims to provide a device for hysteroscopic surgery, which can measure the amount of physiological saline in and out and facilitate the operation before specimens are sent for examination.
[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: a hysteroscopic surgical device, comprising a hysteroscope body, a waste liquid collection mechanism and a specimen processing mechanism, the hysteroscope body comprising a water inlet pipe and a water outlet pipe, both of which are equipped with flow meters; the waste liquid collection mechanism comprises an outer barrel, an inner barrel arranged in the outer barrel, a cover body detachably connected to the outer barrel, and a pipe rotatably connected to the cover body, a plurality of nozzles are provided on the cover body, an annular cavity is formed between the inner barrel and the outer barrel, the height of the inner barrel is lower than the height of the outer barrel, and the side wall of the bottom of the inner barrel is provided with a nozzle connected to the outer barrel. The specimen processing mechanism includes a floating ring, a rack, a gear, a pin, an annular specimen cup, a filter and a grid cutter. The floating ring is slidably arranged in the annular cavity. The lower end of the rack is fixedly connected to the floating ring. The upper end of the rack is provided with a bayonet. The specimen cup is clamped with the upper end of the rack. The filter is placed inside the specimen cup. A convex column that can cooperate with the pipeline key is fixed to the middle of the filter. An abutment rod is fixed on the cover body. The grid cutter is fixed to the abutment rod and can contact the filter. The gear is rotatably arranged in the outer barrel through the pin and the pin extends out of the outer barrel. The gear is located above the rack and can engage with the rack.
[0005] The beneficial effects of this solution are: when performing hysteroscopic surgery, the water outlet pipe is connected to the pipeline, and the normal saline enters the uterine cavity through the water inlet pipe, and then is discharged into the outer barrel and the inner barrel for collection along with the waste liquid through the water outlet pipe. The flow meter measures the normal saline entering and leaving, and by calculating the difference between the liquid inflow and liquid outflow, maintaining the difference within a certain range is conducive to ensuring the safety of the operation.
[0006] After the waste liquid is discharged to the outer barrel through the outlet pipe and the pipeline, the tissue in the waste liquid is filtered and intercepted by the filter, and the waste liquid enters the inner barrel, and then enters the annular cavity through the through hole, thereby driving the floating ring to move upward, and then driving the specimen cup and filter screen upward through the rack; after the operation is completed, water flows through the nozzle to flush the tissue. During the flushing process, the rack engages with the gear, and then the medical staff rotates the pin shaft in the opposite direction to drive the rack downward through the gear. When the upper end of the rack engages with the gear at the extreme position and then separates, since the lower end of the rack is in contact with the waste liquid buffer through the floating ring, the rack will float up again and engage with the gear after separation. The rotation of the gear will drive the rack down again. In this process, the cycle drives the specimen cup and filter screen to rise and fall, thereby driving the tissue on the filter screen to flip, thereby achieving sufficient cleaning of the tissue.
[0007] After cleaning is completed, the medical staff rotates the pin shaft forward to drive the rack, specimen cup and filter screen to move up through the gear. The convex column on the filter screen cooperates with the pipe key to prevent the waste liquid remaining in the pipe from falling; after the filter screen contacts the grid cutter, the grid cutter cuts the large particles of tissue on the filter screen, and then the medical staff rotates the pin shaft in the opposite direction to drive the rack to move downward through the gear to separate the filter screen from the grid cutter; then rotate the pipe, and drive the convex column and the filter screen that cooperate with its key to rotate through the pipe, so that the tissue specimen on the screen is centrifuged into the specimen cup, thereby realizing tissue cleaning, cutting and boxing, which is more convenient.
[0008] In addition, placing the tissue specimen into the annular specimen cup by rotating it can also prevent tissue accumulation and improve penetration efficiency. Ordinary specimen cups are mostly single cylindrical cavities. If multiple small tissues are placed in them, they are easily stacked and squeezed at the bottom of the cup. The tissues at the stacked position cannot directly contact the fixative and need to wait for the fixative to slowly penetrate into the interior, which may cause local cell autolysis. The method adopted in this scheme allows the tissue to be spread naturally in the annular specimen cup. The tissues can independently contact the fixative, improve penetration efficiency, ensure that the tissue is fully fixed from the surface to the center, and the cell morphology is more complete, providing high-quality specimens for pathological sections.
[0009] Secondly, the fixative in ordinary specimen cups tends to form a static area at the bottom of the cup. Residual impurities after rinsing, such as small amounts of blood and tissue debris, tend to settle at the bottom of the cup. Long-term contact with the specimen may contaminate the tissue. However, the annular specimen cup of this solution makes it easier for the fixative to flow. For example, when it is slightly shaken, the fixative circulates along the annular structure, and the deposited impurities will flow with the fixative, reducing the contact between the impurities and the specimen and reducing the risk of contamination.
[0010] Further, the inner side wall of the specimen cup is provided with an annular groove, a barrel is slidably arranged in the annular groove, a spring is arranged between the lower end of the barrel and the bottom of the annular groove, and the upper end of the barrel is abutted against the abutting rod and then slid into the annular groove. The beneficial effects of the scheme are that the barrel is beneficial to prevent the waste liquid from splashing into the specimen cup, and facilitates lifting the specimen cup through the barrel, and when the buckle cover is opened to the lid on the specimen cup, the auxiliary pushing force provided by the spring is beneficial to opening the lid, avoiding that the fixing liquid is splashed out due to the force for opening the lid.
[0011] Further, the controller and the alarm are further included, the flow meters on the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe are connected with the controller and the alarm, and when the value of the flow meter on the water inlet pipe minus the value of the flow meter on the water outlet pipe is greater than or equal to 500 ml, the controller controls the alarm to alarm.
[0012] Further, the gear belt, the two groups of racks, the two groups of gears and the two groups of pin shafts are further included, and the two pin shafts are connected through the gear belt.
[0013] Further, the height of the outer side wall of the specimen cup is greater than the height of the inner side wall.
[0014] Further, the motor is installed on the cover body, and the gears meshing with each other are arranged on the motor and the pipeline.
[0015] Further, the upper end of the convex column is conical.
[0016] Further, the outer barrel and the pipeline are transparent. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
