Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical instruments, in particular to the field of surgical navigation instruments, and specifically is a navigation handle for convenient operation of reduction nails. Background Art

[0002] Currently, many surgeries are performed using navigation systems to ensure the accuracy of the surgical process. This is especially true for fracture surgeries of long bones such as the femur and humerus. Because the entry direction and angle of each instrument are extremely dependent on the doctor's experience, the surgery is difficult and prone to reduction deviations, resulting in poor patient recovery.

[0003] In the prior art, the patient reference frame fixed to the patient plays the role of assisting in tracking the patient's surgical position by being recognized by the navigation system and displayed in the imaging system. In the case of long bone fractures, because there are two broken bones, two corresponding patient reference frames are required to ensure accurate tracking. If the above method is still used, the patient reference frame will occupy space, affecting the operator's manual reduction operations.

[0004] How to find an effective way to achieve navigation reset operation in a space-saving manner is the key to solving the above problems. The utility model provides a navigation handle that is convenient for operating the reset pin around the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] When using a reduction pin comprising an insert and an operating grip to reduce a fractured bone, a patient reference frame identified by a navigation system must be coupled to the reduction pin. This combination of the two allows for navigational surgery on long bone fractures, effectively reducing the space required for instruments during reduction. This utility model addresses the issue of how to combine the patient reference frame with the reduction pin.

[0006] A navigation handle for convenient operation of a reduction nail, the reduction nail comprises an insertion portion and a central rod connected thereto, the navigation handle comprises

[0007] An operating handle is provided inside the operating handle, and a non-circular hole with the same cross section as the center rod is provided. The operating handle is sleeved on the outside of the center rod.

[0008] The locking structure includes a locking threaded rod and a locking cap. A locking threaded hole corresponding to the locking rod is provided on the center rod. The locking threaded rod and the locking threaded hole are combined. The locking cap is rotated to lock the operating handle on the center rod.

[0009] The reference frame setting rod extends from the operating handle and is used to set the patient reference frame.

[0010] When in use, first put the operating handle on the center rod, rotate the locking cap to lock the operating handle on the center rod, then set the patient reference frame on the reference frame setting rod, and then insert the insertion part into the broken bone of the long bone. Complete the reduction action by holding the operating handle by hand, and understand the position changes of the broken bone under the tracking action of the navigation system.

[0011] Furthermore, the reference frame setting rod is arranged perpendicular to the central axis of the operating handle. This arrangement facilitates the reference frame setting rod to extend through the gap between the gripping fingers, and avoids the tilted setting affecting the hand gripping operation.

[0012] Furthermore, a hard tube is provided in the center of the operating handle, a hand-held sleeve with good friction is provided outside the hard tube, and blocking disks are provided at both ends of the hard tube to prevent the rubber sleeve from sliding; and one of the blocking disks is a detachable blocking disk, which facilitates the setting of the hand-held sleeve and can effectively reduce the overall size of the device; in addition, the detachable blocking disk is provided to facilitate the removal of the blocking disk for the setting of the hand-held sleeve; or the hand-held sleeve is a structure with a longitudinal through-slit, and the hand-held sleeve is elastically pulled open and connected to the hard tube. The hand-held sleeve is made of rubber or soft silicone material. Under the above settings, it is still necessary to consider the non-3D printing method.

[0013] Furthermore, how to set the operating reference frame on the operating handle; the specific setting method is to set a setting hole on the hand-held sleeve that exceeds the non-circular cross-section and penetrates to the edge of the handle, and correspondingly set a combination block that is combined with the setting hole; a channel for the hard tube to pass through is set on the combination block, and the combination block is made of high-strength material. The combination block and the setting hole are combined to form a smooth hand-held sleeve; a reference frame setting rod extends from the combination block, and the setting hole is set in the middle of the hand-held sleeve; the assembly method of the operating handle is to first set the combination block in the combination hole, remove the blocking disk at one end of the hard tube, insert the hard tube into the assembled hand-held sleeve, and then install the removed blocking disk, thus completing the assembly of the operating handle; after the assembly of the operating handle is completed, it is sleeved on the center rod, and then the operating handle is locked in the appropriate position by rotating the locking cap.

[0014] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the combination block is a rectangular surface, and the corresponding hole is also a rectangular surface. The combination of the two rectangular surfaces can prevent the combination block from shaking after assembly, thereby ensuring the stability of the patient reference frame position.

[0015] Furthermore, the non-circular shape is a quadrilateral, further a square, and each corner of the square is rounded.

[0016] Furthermore, a limiting structure is provided between the central rod and the insertion portion, wherein a limiting ring extends outward from the central rod or the insertion portion, and the limiting structure includes a limiting plane, and the operating handle is limited above the limiting plane. This arrangement can effectively fix the operating handle in an accurate position.

[0017] Furthermore, in order to meet the hand holding length requirement, the length of the center rod part is 10-15 cm. This distance setting can facilitate the hand holding operation.

[0018] Furthermore, to prevent the operator from interfering with the operating area during operation, the operating grip is guided into an area away from the skin by the insertion portion. The length of the insertion portion is set to 10-15 cm, which ensures that it can be inserted through the body surface while also being away from the skin to ensure easy insertion of the anti-rotation nail.

[0019] Technical Effects

[0020] The use of reduction nails to complete the reduction of long bone fractures can effectively save the operating space when directly operating the leg for reduction;

[0021] By effectively setting the patient reference frame on the operating handle and designing the locking structure and non-circular hole through the locking structure, the patient reference frame can be effectively and firmly set on the reset pin without any relative position change with the reset pin, thereby ensuring the accuracy of navigation system tracking.
