Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of scrapers, in particular to a ring-type cervical canal scraper. Background Art
[0002] As one of the major threats to women's health worldwide, early detection of cervical cancer is crucial to improving treatment success rates and reducing mortality. Endocervical curettage (ECC), as a key diagnostic method, plays an indispensable role in the screening and diagnosis of cervical cancer. ECC directly obtains cell or tissue samples from the endocervical canal, providing an important material basis for pathological examination. Especially when the cervical transformation zone is not obvious or the results of cervical cytology screening are unclear, ECC can reveal early lesions or cancers in the endocervical canal. Studies have shown that ECC can significantly improve the detection rate of cervical lesions, especially in cases of abnormal cytology, HPV16 / 18 infection, and unsatisfactory colposcopy. The additional detection rate of ECC is particularly important. In addition, ECC results are of great clinical significance for guiding subsequent treatment decisions, such as surgery, radiotherapy or chemotherapy.
[0003] At present, the tool used for endocervical curettage is the cervical curette. Although it plays an important role in the early diagnosis of cervical cancer, it is also accompanied by a series of problems and limitations. First, the cervical curette is a ring-shaped scraper made of metal. The material is hard and it is easy to damage the cervix and cause bleeding. The use of the cervical curette may cause pain and discomfort to the patient, especially those who are more sensitive to pain. Secondly, the cervical curette is repeatedly used after disinfection. If the operation is improper or the instrument is not thoroughly disinfected, there is a risk of infection. In addition, the quality and quantity of the samples obtained may be affected by the operation technique, the selection or use of the curette, which in turn affects the accuracy of pathological examination. Due to its fixed and rigid shape, the cervical curette may not be able to reach all areas of the cervical canal, and there is a risk of missing lesions, especially in patients with long cervical canals or special morphologies. In addition, the effectiveness of the use of the cervical curette is highly dependent on the experience and skills of the operator. For inexperienced doctors, it may not be possible to effectively obtain the required samples. Patients may feel anxious or nervous due to their fear of invasive operations, which affects the operation process and results. Finally, for pregnant women, using a hard cervical curette can stimulate uterine contractions and increase the risk of miscarriage or premature birth. Utility Model Content

Specific embodiments
[0033] The following will describe in detail the implementation of the present utility model in combination with implementation cases, but they do not constitute a limitation to the present utility model and are only for examples. At the same time, the advantages of the present utility model will become clearer and easier to understand by description.
[0034] Such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, a ring-shaped cervical canal curette includes a scraping handle 1 and a sleeve 2 sleeved on the scraping handle 1 and axially movable relative to it. The sleeve 2 is a hollow cylindrical structure, and the length of the sleeve 2 is less than the length of the scraping handle 1.
[0035] Such as Figure 3 shown, the scraping handle 1 has an operating end 11 and an introducing end 12, and an introducing head 13 is provided at the introducing end 12 of the scraping handle 1. The introducing head 13 has an arc spherical surface 131 and an abutting surface 132, and the abutting surface 132 of the introducing head 13 is fixed to the introducing end 12 of the scraping handle 1. The size of the abutting surface 132 of the introducing head 13 is larger than the size of the first socket 31 and / or the second socket 32 of the elastic annular scraping head 3. The introducing head 13 performs axial limit on the elastic annular scraping head 3, which can prevent the elastic annular scraping head from slipping out of the scraping handle.
[0036] Such as Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown in the figure, one end of the sleeve 2 is provided with an elastic annular scraping head 3 with a non-closed enclosure. The elastic annular scraping head 3 is sleeved on the scraping handle 1 and arranged in contact with the guiding head 13. The operating end 11 of the scraping handle 1 drives the guiding head 13 to press against the elastic annular scraping head 3 under the action of an external pulling force, so that the elastic annular scraping head 3 is forced to expand. The elastic annular scraping head 3 forms an elliptical spherical structure under the action of the pressing force of the guiding head 13. An adjustable locking mechanism 4 is also arranged between the scraping handle 1 and the sleeve 2. After the locking device is locked, the elastic annular scraping head can be expanded into a 360° elliptical spherical scraping head with different diameters, which can fully fit the elliptical cervical canal and gently scrape the mucosal tissue cells from the cervical canal mucosa.
[0037] As Figure 1 and Figure 6 shown in the figure, the locking mechanism 4 includes a plurality of locking teeth 41 arranged on the scraping handle 1 and a locking hole 42 arranged on the sleeve 2. The locking hole 42 cooperates with the locking teeth 41 to lock the scraping handle 1 and the sleeve 2 to each other. The locking tooth 41 has a protruding pointed head 411, and the pointed head 411 can be inserted into the locking hole 42 for limiting. During operation, pull out the operating end 11 of the scraping handle 1 and push the end of the sleeve, and the locking teeth 41 on the scraping handle 1 can be fixed in the locking hole 42. According to actual needs, the locking teeth 41 at different positions on the scraping handle 1 can be locked with the locking hole 42. The locking hole 42 and the locking teeth 41 are used to lock the scraping handle 1 to prevent misoperation of the scraping handle, and at the same time, the annular scraping head can be fixed to expand into a 360° elliptical spherical scraping head with different diameters.
[0038] As Figure 7 to Figure 10 shown in the figure, the elastic annular scraping head 3 includes a first sleeve 31 and a second sleeve 32. A plurality of elastic scraping strips 33 are arranged between the first sleeve 31 and the second sleeve 32. A gap 34 is left between two adjacent elastic scraping strips 33. The cross-section of the elastic scraping strip 33 is in an arc structure. The elastic scraping strip 33 has an inner arc surface 331 and an outer arc surface 332, and the arc length of the inner arc surface 331 is less than the arc length of the outer arc surface 332.
[0039] The using method of the annular cervical canal scraper of the present utility model includes the following steps:
[0040] When sampling the cervix, first hold the scraping handle 1 and insert the expandable part of the elastic annular scraping head 3 of the device into the cervical canal 6, push the locking mechanism, adjust the expansion diameter of the elastic annular scraping head 3 so that the outer side fully fits the cervical canal wall, rotate the scraping handle 1 with moderate force, operate the scraping handle to rotate 3 to 5 circles in the clockwise direction, then release the locking mechanism of the scraping handle 1, shrink the elastic annular scraping head 3 to make it detach from the cervical canal, and the operator can easily put the elastic annular scraping head 3 into a vial containing a preservation solution, and the sampling is completed. Since the elastic annular scraping head 3 can form a 360° elliptical spherical annular scraping surface that is completely consistent with the surface of the cervical canal mucosa, the sampling operation can be completed by inserting the cervical canal scraper into the cervical canal and applying appropriate pressure to rotate the brush handle, which can quickly, comprehensively and accurately obtain more specimens on the surface of the cervical canal mucosa, improve work efficiency, and facilitate standardized and normalized operations, and easy to train technical personnel for operation.
[0041] The above are only specific implementation methods of the present invention. It should be pointed out that any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by technicians familiar with the field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention, and the rest not described in detail are prior art.
