Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medical examination instruments, and in particular to a measuring plate for measuring testicular volume. Background Art

[0002] Testicular size is one of the important indicators for clinical andrologists to evaluate the state of testicular development, and testicular volume measurement is an important means to obtain testicular size data. Currently, there are roughly three methods commonly used in clinical practice to measure testicular volume, namely B-ultrasound measurement, testicular model comparison measurement, and testicular volume measurement board measurement.

[0003] B-ultrasound measurement is to measure the axial length of the testicle through ultrasound, so as to calculate the testicular volume. B-ultrasound measurement data is relatively accurate; however, the cost of B-ultrasound measurement is also relatively high, and B-ultrasound examinations usually require appointments, and the test results need to wait for a long time. Clinicians often cannot obtain the corresponding data at the first time when the patient sees the doctor, which reduces the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment.

[0004] The traditional testicular volume measurement plate is a plastic plate with elliptical holes pre-opened. The size of each hole is made according to the testicular volume, corresponding to the testicular volumes of 1ml, 2ml, 3ml, 4ml, 5ml, 6ml, 8ml, 10ml, 12ml, 15ml, 20ml, and 25ml. During measurement, the patient's testicle to be tested is pressed through the hole. The data corresponding to the hole size that is just large enough for the testicle to pass through is the size of the testicular volume to be tested. This method is more efficient and can obtain testicular volume data as soon as the patient sees the doctor; however, the testicular tissue is fragile and sensitive to external force stimulation. During the process of the testicle passing through the hole, the patient often feels pain and discomfort due to the squeezing of the testicle to be tested, and there is also a risk of the testicle being incarcerated after passing through the hole. At this time, a greater force is needed to push the testicle back or pull the scrotum to prompt it to pass back through the measurement hole, which will make the patient feel obvious pain and discomfort. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of the present application is to provide a measuring plate for measuring testicular volume, so as to solve the technical problem that the traditional piercing testicular measurement method may cause discomfort to the patient.

[0006] In order to achieve the above technical purpose, the present application provides a measurement board for testicular volume measurement, comprising a board body;

[0007] At least one transparent measurement model is provided on the plate;

[0008] The measurement model is provided with an ellipsoidal measurement recess for placing the testicle to be measured.

[0009] Furthermore, the measurement model is multiple;

[0010] The volume of the measurement depression of each measurement model corresponds to a different preset testicle volume.

[0011] Furthermore, the measurement model and the plate body are integrally formed.

[0012] Furthermore, the measurement model can be detachably mounted on the plate.

[0013] Furthermore, a supporting flange is provided on the measuring model;

[0014] A groove for embedding the supporting flange is provided on one side of the plate body;

[0015] The groove is provided with an avoidance through hole for avoiding the measurement model.

[0016] Furthermore, the plate is transparent.

[0017] Furthermore, the plate body and the measurement model are made of resin material.

[0018] Furthermore, the plurality of measurement models are distributed on the plate according to a preset distribution rule.

[0019] Furthermore, a plurality of the measurement models are disposed at both ends of the plate.

[0020] Furthermore, the plate body is multiple;

[0021] Adjacent plates are foldably connected together via flexible connectors.

[0022] It can be seen from the above technical solutions that the testicular volume measurement plate designed in the present application adopts a recessed design instead of the traditional direct opening, which can accurately measure the testicular volume while eliminating the risk of testicles getting stuck during the actual measurement process, and also eliminates the possibility of pain and discomfort caused by testicles getting stuck during the measurement process.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0032] The embodiment of the present application discloses a measuring plate for measuring testicular volume.

[0033] See also Figure 1 An embodiment of a testicular volume measurement plate provided in the embodiments of the present application includes:

[0034] Board body 1.

[0035] At least one transparent measuring model 2 is provided on the plate body 1, and the measuring model 2 is provided with an ellipsoidal measuring recess 21 for the testicle to be measured to be placed, and the transparent design facilitates viewing of the filling state of the testicle in the measuring recess 21. The measuring model 2 is an ellipsoidal model structure simulating the outer shape of the testicle, and the volume specification of the measuring recess 21 can be, for example, 1ml, 2ml, 3ml, 4ml, 5ml, 6ml, 8ml, 10ml, 12ml, 15ml, 20ml, 25ml.

[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, when viewed from the front of the plate body 1, it has an ellipsoidal measuring depression 21, the length of the opening major axis of the measuring depression 21 is the major axis length 2a of the corresponding volume of the testis, the minor axis length is the minor axis length 2b of the corresponding volume of the testis, and the depth is 1 / 2b of the minor axis length of the corresponding volume of the testis. When viewed from the back of the plate body 1, it has an ellipsoidal protrusion corresponding to the measuring depression 21.

[0037] During measurement, the doctor gently pulls and fixes the patient's testicle to be tested with his left hand, holds the plate body 1 with his right hand, and puts the patient's testicle into the measuring recess 21 on the plate body 1. When the long axis and short axis of the testicle to be tested are consistent with the long axis and short axis of the corresponding measuring recess 21 at the same time, the volume represented by the corresponding measuring recess 21 is the volume of the testicle to be tested.

[0038] The above is an embodiment of a testicular volume measurement board provided in the present application. The following is an embodiment of a testicular volume measurement board provided in the present application. For details, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 .

[0039] Based on the solution of the above embodiment 1:

[0040] Furthermore, there are preferably multiple measurement models 2, and the volume of the measurement recess 21 of each measurement model 2 corresponds to a different preset testicle volume.

[0041] Furthermore, the measuring model 2 and the plate body 1 are integrally formed to facilitate processing.

[0042] Furthermore, the measurement model 2 can also be designed to be detachably mounted on the plate body 1. The measurement model 2 is modularly designed to facilitate the disassembly and replacement of the measurement model 2. For example, when the measurement depression 21 of the measurement model 2 has reduced transparency due to long-term wear and affects the judgment of the fit of the testicle in the depression, a new measurement model 2 can be replaced without replacing the entire model, thereby saving medical equipment.

[0043] Furthermore, for the detachable installation design, a support flange can be arranged around the measurement model 2, and a groove for the support flange to be embedded is provided on one side of the plate body 1, and an avoidance through hole for avoiding the measurement model 2 is provided in the groove. During installation, the measurement model 2 is embedded in the groove, and the interference fit between the support flange and the groove can be used to achieve fixation. Of course, a buckle can also be designed on the edge of the groove, and when the support flange is embedded in place, the buckle buckles the support flange to achieve fixation. Those skilled in the art can make appropriate changes in design based on this, without limitation.

[0044] Furthermore, in order to better view the filling state of the testicle in the measuring recess 21, the plate body 1 is also designed to be transparent.

[0045] Furthermore, the plate body 1 and the measurement model 2 may be made of a transparent resin material without limitation.

[0046] Furthermore, taking the design of multiple measurement models 2 as an example, they can be distributed on the plate body 1 according to a preset distribution rule. This facilitates the measurement process, reduces the number of repeated replacements of the measurement plate during the measurement process, and further improves the measurement efficiency.

[0047] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a plurality of measurement models 2 are disposed at both ends of the plate 1. Of course, they can also be arranged in a linear or spiral pattern without limitation.

[0048] When distributing, if there are a large number of measurement models 2, the measurement models 2 can be arranged according to a certain volume specification range, for example, five measurement models 2 of 1ml, 2ml, 3ml, 4ml, and 5ml specifications are integrated into the first plate body 1, four measurement models 2 of 6ml, 8ml, 10ml, and 12ml specifications are integrated into the second plate body 1, and three measurement models 2 of 15ml, 20ml, and 25ml specifications are integrated into the third plate body 1. When using, according to the predicted situation, the plate body 1 of the measurement model 2 with the corresponding specification range can be taken for use. Of course, all specifications of the measurement models 2 can also be integrated into one plate body 1, and there is no specific limitation.

[0049] Furthermore, taking the board body 1 as an example of multiple designs, for the convenience of storage, the adjacent board bodies 1 are designed to be foldably connected together through flexible connectors, and the flexible connectors can be hinges. In addition, taking the detachable design of the measurement model 2 as an example, when storing, the various measurement models 2 can be stacked together in sequence according to the size of the measurement recess 21, so as to save space. In the case where no flexible connector is provided, the stacking and storage can also be performed directly, and the setting positions of the measurement models 2 on each board body 1 correspond to each other, and the measurement models 2 on different board bodies 1 can be nested with each other. Those skilled in the art can make appropriate changes in design based on the above scheme without limitation.

[0050] The above is a detailed introduction to a testicular volume measurement board provided by the present application. For a person skilled in the art, according to the idea of ​​the embodiments of the present application, there may be changes in the specific implementation method and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present application.
