Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of medical auxiliary devices, and specifically relates to a visual drug delivery auxiliary device. Background Technology
[0002] In proctology, such as in the treatment of hemorrhoids, when applying medication to the area around the anus, patients often need to apply or change the medication themselves. However, patients usually cannot see the anus and can only apply or change the medication by feeling.
[0003] In existing technologies, when precise medication application is required for lesions located outside the standard field of vision, a mirror is typically used. However, when the mirror is placed on a flat surface, it is difficult to align it with the patient's line of sight, making the procedure very inconvenient. In well-lit environments, a mirror is sufficient; in poorly lit environments, a lamp is used for illumination.
[0004] However, the reflection from a mirror has a fixed light path, which is not good for patients.
[0005] In particular, when applying medication near the anus, one is usually in a squatting position, which requires repeatedly adjusting and moving the lighting or mirror while in a squatting posture, which can be a bit cramped.
[0006] Similarly, applying medication to areas such as the back is difficult for a single person to perform.
[0007] With the development of digital camera technology, connecting cameras to mobile phones or computers has become a common technology. However, traditional cameras usually use infrared light for illumination in dark environments. The images obtained by infrared supplementary lighting are usually different from traditional images. Traditional surveillance cameras cannot be used for visual aids. Summary of the Invention

[0051] like Figure 1 After undergoing anorectal surgery, during the recovery period, patients need to change their own dressings. A visual dressing assistance device captures images and transmits them to a mobile phone, allowing patients to change their dressings based on these images. Mobile phone holders are already a common technology; using a mobile phone with a holder provides a good viewing angle.
[0052] like Figure 2 The illumination module emits visible light to illuminate the affected area; the camera module has a specific shooting angle and optimal shooting distance (FD), and the optimal illumination distance (LD) and range of the illumination module coincide with the object distance (FD), effectively capturing clear images and providing the patient with a clear picture of the affected area. Without the illumination module, traditional cameras cannot achieve adequate illumination for the groin area and cannot obtain clear images.
