Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to a visual urethra dilation device. Background Art
[0002] Urethral stricture is a common disease in urology, and urethral dilation is an important means of examination and treatment. For patients whose urinary tract stricture makes it impossible to insert a catheter, a urethral dilator is used to dilate the narrow section of the patient's urinary tract. Urinary tract dilators are divided into multiple models from thin to thick. When dilating the patient's urinary tract, the doctor will first use a thinner urinary tract dilator. If it can pass through the narrow section of the patient's urinary tract, the model of the urinary tract dilator will be increased in turn to achieve the purpose of dilating the urethra. In this way, the doctor needs to prepare multiple models of urinary tract dilators before dilating the patient's urinary tract, which requires a large storage space, and the urinary tract dilator needs to be inserted and removed from the patient's urinary tract multiple times during the operation, which makes the steps cumbersome, and the multiple insertions and removals of the urinary tract dilator are likely to cause damage to the patient's urinary tract.
[0003] There is a Chinese patent with application number CN202321543366.4, which discloses a stacked urethral dilator. Through the stacked expansion method, the expansion inner core is first inserted into the patient's urethra for preliminary expansion, and then the expansion outer sheath with a successively thicker cross-sectional diameter is gradually put on from the end of the inserted expansion inner core, and then the patient's urethra is gradually expanded. Compared with the prior art, this expansion process saves the repeated removal of the urethral dilator during the replacement of different urethral dilator models. However, the urethral dilator first inserts the expansion inner core, and then puts the expansion outer sheath on the outside of the inserted expansion inner core to achieve the effect of urethral expansion. During the installation process, the newly installed expansion outer sheath will continue to cause scratches and other compression to the entire inner wall of the urethra, increasing the patient's pain. If multiple layers of expansion outer sheaths are to be installed, the patient will suffer multiple times. Therefore, a visual urethral dilation device is needed. Utility Model Content
