[0028] In the prior art, for the treatment of vaginal wounds, mainly the medical staff use their left hand to spread open the vagina to expose the wound and the right hand to suture. For relatively severe and complex wounds inside the vagina, additional assistants are required to use vaginal retractors to expand the vagina to provide an operating space. However, the use of vaginal retractors will cause strong discomfort to the patient, and at the same time, it is easy to have the problem that the wound is not fully exposed, resulting in a long suture time and an unsatisfactory suture effect.

[0029] Based on the above problems in the prior art, the present utility model provides a vaginal wound exposer, as Figure 1As shown, the vaginal wound exposing device includes: a shell 100, the shell 100 is in the shape of a truncated cone, the interior of the shell 100 is provided with an operating cavity 110 penetrating through the two bottom surfaces of the shell 100, and a clearance groove 120 is provided on the side wall of the shell 100. The clearance groove 120 is set along the bottom edge with a larger diameter to the upper and middle part of the shell 100, and the clearance groove 120 is used to expose the vaginal wound.

[0030] The utility model provides a truncated cone-shaped shell 100 and a clearance groove 120 on the side wall of the shell 100. When suturing a vaginal wound, the vagina can be opened by the shell 100 to expose the wound in the clearance groove 120 for suturing. During the operation, the shell 100 can be rotated to check and operate on the wound sites in the vagina one by one. The supporting effect of the shell 100 can provide a better operating space, avoid pulling the vagina to cause discomfort to the patient, and effectively improve the suturing efficiency and suturing effect.

[0031] In the above embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the main body of the vaginal wound exposure device of the utility model is a shell 100. When specifically set, the shell 100 is set in a truncated cone shape, and its interior is hollow. For the convenience of the specification, the hollow part in the shell 100 is called an operation chamber 110 in the following embodiments. The shell 100 is made of non-toxic and harmless materials. When actually used, it is used to be set inside the patient's vagina to form a support for the inner wall of the vagina. The operation chamber 110 is used to provide an operating space for medical staff. In this embodiment, in order to realize the exposure of the internal vaginal wound, A clearance groove 120 is provided on the side wall of the shell 100. The clearance groove 120 is hollowed out and extends along the edge of the bottom surface with a larger diameter on the shell 100 to the upper and middle part of the shell 100, that is, the corresponding part of the bottom surface with a smaller diameter on the shell 100 is still connected, and the overall shape of the shell 100 can be maintained, while the clearance groove 120 can expose the wound part in the patient's vagina. In actual operation, medical staff can rotate the shell 100 to make the clearance groove 120 correspond to different parts in the patient's vagina, thereby achieving suturing of the circumferential wound inside the vagina.

[0032] In this embodiment, according to the different locations of the wound inside the patient's vagina, multiple models of vaginal wound exposers can be preset, wherein the multiple models specifically refer to the differences in the diameter of the shell 100 being divided into multiple models, the differences in the length of the shell 100 being divided into multiple models, and the differences in the depth of the give way groove 120 being divided into multiple models. This application does not limit this, and technical personnel in this field can set it according to actual usage requirements.

[0033] In another feasible embodiment of the present utility model, during the surgical process of suturing the wound inside the patient's vagina, medical staff often also face difficulties in suturing caused by factors such as intrauterine bleeding and vaginal wall bleeding of the patient. Since the present utility model adopts a frustum-shaped housing 100, it covers part of the inner vaginal wall during actual use, thus eliminating the influence of vaginal wall bleeding on the suturing process. Regarding the influence of intrauterine bleeding of the patient on the suturing operation of medical staff, in this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, on the bottom surface of the housing 100 corresponding to the smaller diameter, there is also provided an installation ring 130. The installation ring 130 is specifically an annular structure, whose outer diameter dimension is adapted to the bottom surface of the housing 100 with a smaller diameter. An inner hole is provided inside it. When the installation ring 130 is actually arranged, it is arranged at a predetermined angle. This predetermined angle can be an obtuse angle with the outer wall of the housing 100, so that the installation ring 130 is arranged in the form of a convex head, or the installation ring 130 can be a plane. Correspondingly, in this embodiment, the vaginal wound exposer further includes a hemostatic member 200. The hemostatic member 200 is used to stop the intrauterine bleeding of the patient to ensure a suitable suturing environment. During actual use, as Figure 3 shown, the hemostatic member 200 is detachably arranged on the installation ring 130. Before the operation, medical staff fix the hemostatic member 200 on the installation ring 130. When the housing 100 is inserted into the patient's vagina, the installation ring 130 corresponds to the patient's cervical part, and the hemostatic member 200 abuts against the cervical part, which can achieve a certain hemostatic effect or block the bleeding, thereby creating a better suturing environment.

[0034] In this embodiment, the hemostatic member 200 can specifically use vaginal gauze, hemostatic cotton, hemostatic gauze, etc. in the prior art, and can be used in combination with applying hemostatic agents or used independently. The present application does not limit this, but it should be noted that the hemostatic member 200 should be made of flexible materials to facilitate the installation of the hemostatic member 200 on the installation ring 130 and other operations (as described below).

[0035] Based on the above embodiment, in a specific embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 1 and Figure 3 shown, when the above-mentioned hemostatic member 200 is actually installed, the hemostatic member 200 is wound into an annular structure and sleeved in the inner hole of the installation ring 130. One end of the hemostatic member 200 is detachably connected to the installation ring 130, and the other end of the hemostatic member 200 abuts against the inner wall of the housing 100. After the housing 100 is inserted into the predetermined position in the patient's vagina, the part of the hemostatic member 200 connected to the installation ring 130 corresponds to the circumference of the cervical orifice. At this time, as Figure 4As shown, medical staff can bend a part of the hemostatic member 200 located in the operation cavity 110 towards the inner hole of the mounting ring 130 through tools such as curved forceps, so that this part of the hemostatic member 200 forms a seal for the inner hole of the mounting ring 130, thereby compressing and stopping bleeding at the cervical orifice of the patient, achieving a further effect of preventing blood from flowing.

[0036] In this embodiment, since one end of the hemostatic member 200 is detachably connected to the mounting ring 130, that is, the hemostatic member 200 and the mounting ring 130 are fixedly connected during use, it is also possible to avoid the situation where the hemostatic member 200 remains in the vagina after the operation, achieving a better anti-fooling effect and ensuring the surgical safety of the patient.

[0037] In another feasible embodiment of the present utility model, the above-mentioned mounting ring 130 and the housing 100 can also be set as a detachable connection structure. For example, a plurality of tenons are arranged at intervals on the outer circumferential side of the mounting ring 130, and a slot structure adapted to the tenons is arranged on the inner side of the bottom surface with a smaller diameter of the housing 100. With such a setting, when installing the hemostatic member 200, the hemostatic member 200 can be first combined with the mounting ring 130, and then the mounting ring 130 is pushed in from one side of the bottom surface with a larger diameter of the housing 100 until it forms a snap connection at one end of the bottom surface with a smaller diameter for use. One advantage of such a setting is that it is convenient for medical staff to install the hemostatic member 200, and at the same time, further binding can be carried out when specifically using vaginal gauze or the like as the hemostatic member to prevent the hemostatic member from falling off from the mounting ring 130.

[0038] Based on the above embodiments, more specifically, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the detachable structure of the above-mentioned mounting hole and the hemostatic member 200 can be specifically set as follows: a plurality of engaging holes 131 are arranged on the circumference of the mounting ring 130, and one side of the engaging hole 131 is communicated with the inner hole of the mounting ring 130, so that a plurality of engaging structures are formed in the mounting ring 130. Since the hemostatic member 200 is made of a flexible material, during installation, medical staff can use tools such as tweezers to circumferentially engage the fabric of the hemostatic member 200 in a plurality of engaging holes 131, and then bend the end to form a structural state that fits the mounting ring 130. After the housing 100 enters the patient's vagina, when medical staff bend other parts of the hemostatic member 200 to the inner hole of the mounting ring 130, the engaging effect of the engaging holes 131 on the hemostatic member 200 is further stabilized. Therefore, the situation where the hemostatic member 200 falls off from the mounting ring 130 can be effectively avoided, facilitating the medical staff to remove the hemostatic member 200 after the operation.

[0039] In another embodiment, another installation method can be used, that is, a bonding layer is provided on the side of the mounting ring 130 away from the operating chamber 110, and the bonding layer is specifically a double-sided adhesive tape, which can be detachably bonded to the mounting ring 130 and the hemostatic member 200. In actual use, the bonding layer is provided on the mounting ring 130 in advance, and after the hemostatic member 200 is wound and sleeved on the inner hole of the mounting ring 130, the end of the hemostatic member 200 is bent to form a Figure 1 In the style shown, the bent portion contacts the bonding layer and forms a stable fit, thereby achieving the same fixing effect as in the above embodiment.

[0040] In the above two embodiments, after completing the suturing operation, the medical staff takes out the shell 100 and disassembles the hemostatic device 200 for centralized anti-infection treatment. At the same time, the shell 100 can be cleaned and disinfected for next use. In some embodiments, the shell 100 can also be used as a disposable tool.

[0041] In the above embodiment, in order to prevent the housing 100 and the mounting ring 130 from falling off during actual use, resulting in the hemostatic member 200 and the mounting ring 130 being left inside the patient's vagina, in this embodiment, the mounting ring 130 and the housing 100 are preferably made in an integrated manner. In addition, in the specific setting, it is also preferred that the mounting ring 130 and the housing 100 are made of elastic materials, such as silicone, rubber and other materials. The advantage of such a setting is that it is convenient for medical staff to hold and deform the housing 100 so as to smoothly sleeve the housing 100 in the vagina, and at the same time, it also avoids stress compression on the skin in the vagina, reducing the discomfort of the patient. On the other hand, the outer wall of the housing 100 should be smoothly set so that the medical staff can rotate the housing 100 during the surgical operation so that the clearance groove 120 corresponds to the inner wall of the vagina at different parts. The smooth outer wall of the housing 100 can reduce friction to reduce the pain of the patient.

[0042] In the above embodiment, the utility model does not limit the specific material of the shell 100, but it should be noted that the shell 100 should be made of waterproof material to avoid damage to the shell 100 due to blood or blood infiltration affecting the operating vision of medical staff.

[0043] In the above embodiment, the corner portion of the paving groove 120 should be smoothly transitioned, specifically including the corresponding portion between the paving groove 120 and the bottom surface of the shell 100, and the corresponding portion of the paving groove 120 in the upper middle portion of the shell 100. The smooth transition setting means that these portions are rounded to a certain size to avoid clamping the patient's vaginal flesh when the shell 100 is rotated, thereby avoiding discomfort to the patient caused by the operation.

[0044] Based on the above embodiments, the actual use process of the vaginal wound exposure device of the utility model is as follows:

[0045] First, if Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the medical staff prepares the shell 100 and the hemostatic component 200, and wraps the hemostatic component 200 around the inside of the mounting ring 130, so that one end of the hemostatic component 200 is bent and fits against one side of the mounting ring 130, and the other end of the hemostatic component 200 abuts against the inner wall of the shell 100.

[0046] The installed vaginal wound exposing device is then inserted into the patient's vagina so that one end of the mounting ring 130 of the shell 100 abuts against the corresponding cervical opening of the patient. Then, surgical tools such as tweezers are used to bend the hemostatic component 200 in the shell 100 so that it accumulates toward the inner hole of the mounting ring 130, thereby forming a blockage and compression hemostasis for the patient's cervical opening, thereby providing a suitable environment for the suturing operation.

[0047] Finally, the shell 100 is rotated to determine the wound position and perform suturing through the corresponding position of the groove 120 and the inner wall of the patient's vagina. Due to the operating cavity 110 formed by the supporting effect of the shell 100 and the bleeding-blocking effect of the hemostatic element 200, medical staff can obtain a better operating field of view and operating space, which can improve the efficiency of medical staff in suturing wounds and reduce the discomfort of patients during the operation.

The utility model provides a truncated cone-shaped shell and a clearance groove on the side wall of the shell. When suturing the vaginal wound, the vagina can be opened by the shell, so that the wound is exposed in the clearance groove for suturing. During the operation, the shell can be rotated to check and operate the wound sites in the vagina one by one. It can not only provide a better operating space through the supporting effect of the shell, but also avoid pulling the vagina to cause discomfort to the patient, which can effectively improve the suturing efficiency and suturing effect.

[0049] In summary, the utility model provides a vaginal wound exposure device and a surgical auxiliary instrument, wherein the vaginal wound exposure device comprises: a shell, the shell is in the shape of a truncated cone, the interior of the shell is provided with an operating cavity penetrating the two bottom surfaces of the shell, and the side wall of the shell is provided with a clearance groove, which is provided along the bottom edge with a larger diameter to the middle and upper part of the shell, and the clearance groove is used to expose the vaginal wound.
