Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lithotripsy medical equipment, in particular to a lithotripsy cooling and stone-taking net basket. Background Art
[0002] Stones in the human body are often found in the gallbladder and urinary system. Common methods of clinical lithotripsy are laser lithotripsy and electrohydraulic lithotripsy. Laser lithotripsy breaks stones by burning them at high temperatures instantly. The result of its energy conversion is thermal energy, and the core temperature exceeds 4700°C. The principle of electrohydraulic lithotripsy is to use the principle of high-voltage oscillation waves generated by piezoelectricity to energize the positive and negative electrodes in a liquid environment to induce a high voltage between the two electrodes. When the voltage difference between the two electrodes exceeds the resistance of the insulating layer, sparks and shock waves are generated between the electrodes. The shock waves cause the water to vibrate in a short period of time to produce tiny bubbles, which act on the stones to achieve the purpose of stone crushing.
[0003] Thermal laser lithotripsy is the most common lithotripsy method for urinary stones and is widely used clinically. During the lithotripsy process, local instantaneous high temperatures are encountered. A part of the laser pulse energy causes the injected water to vaporize instantly and directly burn the ureter or kidney tissue, leading to ureteral stenosis / occlusion and loss of renal function. Therefore, during the lithotripsy and stone removal process, it is necessary to cool down in time to avoid continued high temperature and damage to human tissues, and the high-temperature steam and liquid must be able to be extracted from the body in time.

In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, a stone crushing and cooling stone removal net basket comprises an outer sheath tube 1, a slidable inner tube 2 is provided inside the outer sheath tube 1, one end of the inner tube 2 is connected to a stone removal net 3 and can be extended from the end of the outer sheath tube 1, the other end of the outer sheath tube 1 is connected to an adapter 4, the adapter 4 is connected to a hand clamp assembly, the other end of the inner tube 2 passes through the adapter 4 and is connected to the hand clamp assembly; a liquid extraction channel 5 is provided inside the outer sheath tube 1, one end of the liquid extraction channel 5 close to the adapter 4 is connected to a liquid extraction hose 6, the other end of the liquid extraction channel 6 passes through the end of the outer sheath tube 1, the inner tube 2 is located at the hand clamp assembly and is provided with a liquid inlet hose 7, the liquid extraction hose 6 and the liquid inlet hose 7 are both connected to a cooling host 8.
[0031] The lithotripsy and cooling stone removal net basket improves the outer sheath 1 and the inner tube 2 to form a liquid circulation system therein, and can quickly and / or continuously cool the stone removal net 3 at the end of the inner tube, thereby reducing the adverse effects of local high temperature generated during laser or electrode lithotripsy on body tissues and improving the safety of the lithotripsy process.
[0032] On the one hand, the inner tube 2 is used as a component for connecting the stone removal net, and can control the stone removal net to extend or retract into the outer sheath tube. On the other hand, the internal channel of the inner tube 2 can be used as a liquid channel, and the inner tube 2 can be used to inject liquid medicine, cooling liquid, etc. to the end where the stone removal net is located to assist in stone crushing and stone removal. The setting of the liquid inlet hose 7 allows cooling liquid to pass into the inner tube 2, and the cooling liquid can usually be water; other hoses or branch joints can be connected to the inner tube separately to facilitate liquid medicine injection.
[0033] The setting of the outer sheath 1, on the one hand, can protect the inner tube 2, making it convenient to introduce the entire pipeline into the human body to reach the lesion location; on the other hand, the liquid extraction channel 5 set therein can be used to extract the cooling liquid that has entered the vicinity of the stone removal net, and bring out the liquid after heat exchange, thereby achieving the purpose of local cooling; during the injection of the drug solution, the liquid extraction function can be turned off to avoid affecting the effect of the drug solution.
[0034] The liquid extraction hose 6 is connected at the outer end to facilitate connection with the cooling host 8. The cooling host can provide low-temperature liquid and form a circulating cooling system. The cooling host can directly select mature products available on the market.
[0035] The setting of the adapter 4 can be connected to the outer sheath tube 1 and the hand forceps assembly respectively. The hand forceps assembly can be used to control the movement of the outer sheath tube 1 and the movement of the inner tube 2, which is convenient for medical staff to perform stone removal operations.

[0041] Normally, the outer sheath 1 has a smaller diameter, while the pliers assembly has a larger diameter for the convenience of the operator to hold it. The adapter 4 with this structure can connect the two well without affecting the use of both. The outer sheath and the pliers assembly can be disassembled to facilitate replacement of parts and cleaning.
[0042] Furthermore, the inner circumference of the inner tube 2 is provided with a plurality of guide grooves, which have a guiding function and facilitate the flow of liquid to the inner end; a plurality of limiting slip rings are also provided between the outer circumference of the inner tube 2 and the inner circumference of the outer sheath tube 1, which have a limiting and guiding function and do not affect the relative movement between the inner tube and the outer sheath tube; the limiting slip rings can also adopt miniature bearings.
[0043] Furthermore, the pliers assembly includes a pliers rod body 11 connected to the adapter 4, a pair of first handle rings 12 are provided on the pliers rod body 11, and a second handle ring 13 is provided at one end of the pliers rod body 11 away from the adapter 4, and a ring seat of the second handle ring 13 is connected to the inner tube 2 passing through the pliers rod body 11.
[0044] The first handle ring 12 can control the entire hand pliers assembly and the outer sheath 1, and the second handle ring 13 can independently control the movement of the inner tube 2. In some embodiments, the ring seat can also be connected to a sliding sleeve, which is inserted into and connected to the hand pliers rod body.

[0047] In some embodiments, the internal space of the inner tube 2 can be used to allow an electrode guide wire for lithotripsy to pass therein to reach the lesion, or an axial channel can be opened in the outer sheath to set the electrode guide wire.
[0048] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
