Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a medical device, and more particularly to a device for collecting waste fluid during knee arthroscopy, specifically a waste fluid collection device for knee arthroscopy. Background Technology

[0002] In knee arthroscopy, several to tens of liters of saline solution are often required as the surgical medium. This saline solution continuously flows within the joint cavity, forming the surgical space. When this fluid flows out of the joint cavity, it mixes with the patient's bodily fluids and blood, becoming waste fluid. This waste fluid often splashes, increasing the risk of occupational exposure for medical staff. Furthermore, improper collection of waste fluid leading to spillage on the operating room floor can corrode the floor, causing cracks and bulges, increasing maintenance costs. The slippery floor also increases the risk of falls and injuries for medical staff, potentially leading to fractures and other serious consequences.

[0003] Currently, conventional waste fluid collection bags are mainly used in clinical practice for shielding or collecting waste fluid. However, these waste fluid collection bags are bag-shaped and made of PE film, with a small shielding area, poor airtightness, and require assistance from other personnel for support. This not only easily affects the surgical process but also increases personnel costs.

[0004] Therefore, improvements are urgently needed to better meet the needs of surgery. Utility Model Content

[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown.

[0027] A waste fluid collection device for knee arthroscopy includes: a support, a collection hood 2, and a collection bag 1.

[0028] The support consists of two rods, both shaped like the number "7", comprising a horizontal bar 5 and a vertical bar 7. Both the horizontal bar 5 and the vertical bar 7 are hollow straight rods and are separate from each other. The length of the horizontal bar 5 is adapted to the surgical area. The length of the vertical bar 7 is approximately 60cm to meet usage requirements.

[0029] A connector 15 is provided at the upper end of the vertical rod 7. This connector 15 is a short cylindrical rod, one end of which is connected to the upper end of the vertical rod 7, and the other end is suspended, making the connector 15 perpendicular to the vertical rod 7. Furthermore, the outer wall of the connector 15 is threaded. Correspondingly, one end of the crossbar 5 is open, and its inner wall is threaded to mate with the connector 15, allowing the crossbar to be screwed onto the connector 15. This allows the bracket to be easily assembled and disassembled, facilitating use and sterilization storage.

[0030] As a standard design, the operating table 6 for knee arthroscopy is typically equipped with a support 8 on its side. This support 8 is an independent component and can be placed anywhere on the operating table's slide rail. Thus, the lower end of the vertical rod 7 can be inserted into the support 8, securing the support to both sides of the operating table and ensuring the horizontal rod is parallel to the operating table.

[0031] The fluid collection cover 2 is a rectangular box-shaped structure with an open top, made of soft material. Its cross-sectional size is approximately equal to the surgical area. Several tethers 3 are provided along the upper edge of its sidewalls for easy attachment to the crossbar 5, facilitating installation and removal. Additionally, connection holes are provided at the apex corners of the front and rear faces of the fluid collection cover 2, allowing the crossbar 5 to pass through and securely suspend the cover. The fluid collection cover 5 is approximately 40cm high, effectively preventing splashing of waste fluid during surgery and eliminating the risk of exposure for medical personnel.

[0032] The front end face of the liquid collection cover 2 is provided with a through-hole-shaped operating hole 12 with a diameter of 25-30cm, so that the patient's surgical limb can be inserted into the liquid collection cover 2 from the outside to the inside through the operating hole 12 to meet the surgical needs.

[0033] A fixing sleeve 4 is provided inside the operating hole 12. The fixing sleeve 4 is a cylindrical shape with open ends, made of rigid materials such as plastic, and has an annular air bladder 13 on its inner wall. The fixing sleeve 4 is fitted into the operating hole 12, with its outer end flush with the outer wall of the collection cover 2, and its inner end suspended within the collection cover 2. The air bladder 13 has an air nozzle 10 for inflation and deflation, allowing air to be inflated through the nozzle to tightly wrap around the patient's surgical limb, enhancing the stability of the collection cover and preventing waste fluid from flowing out of the operating hole. Preferably, the outer end of the fixing sleeve 4 has a flange 14. The outer diameter of the flange 14 is larger than the diameter of the operating hole 12, allowing it to fit snugly against the outside of the operating hole for a more secure connection.

[0034] The air nozzle 10 is a flexible tube with a stop clip 11. The stop clip 11 is sheet-shaped and made of rigid materials such as medical-grade plastic, and has a funnel-shaped through-hole. The larger end of the through-hole is round, with a diameter larger than the diameter of the air nozzle 10. The smaller end of the through-hole is wedge-shaped, which can compress the air nozzle to complete closure. The stop clip 11 is fitted onto the air nozzle 10, and the position of the through-hole can be changed to open or close the air nozzle. Specifically, when the air nozzle is at the larger end, it is open, allowing air to be inflated or deflated into the airbag; when the air nozzle is at the smaller end, it is closed, keeping the airbag in an inflated state.

[0035] The collection bag 1 is rectangular, made of soft material, and open at the top. Its length is approximately the same as the collection cover 2, while its width is less. Two collection bags are placed below each other on either side of the collection cover 2, with their upper ends connected to the bottom of the cover 2. This allows waste liquid collected by the cover 2 to flow into the collection bag 1, preventing contamination of the operating room floor. The distance between the collection bags 1 is approximately the same as the width of the operating table 6, ensuring stable placement on either side. Preferably, each collection bag 1 has an openable / closable discharge hole 9 at its bottom to promptly drain waste liquid and prevent excessive waste liquid from affecting its use.

[0036] When the liquid collection hood 2 and the liquid collection bag 1 are made into one piece and are made of TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) medical film, it is not only convenient for production and use, but also has the characteristics of wear resistance, tear resistance, and resistance to a variety of chemicals. It is suitable for contact with drugs and disinfectants, and can withstand various sterilization methods such as high temperature and radiation, which can fully meet the needs of use.

[0037] The method of using this utility model is as follows:

[0038] After the patient's surgical limb is disinfected and a sterile drape is laid on it, the non-surgical limb is positioned below the drape. After assembling the sterilized support, the lower end of the vertical rod is fixed to the support of the operating table. Then, the radiation-sterilized collection hood is unfolded, and its upper edge is fixed to the crossbar of the support. Simultaneously, the patient's surgical limb is inserted into the collection hood 2 through the operating port 12 from the outside in, and the collection bags are placed on both sides of the operating table. A pad is provided under the surgical limb to ensure it is positioned appropriately for surgery. Subsequently, the air nozzle is connected to an air pump and other equipment, and inflated to ensure the air bladder in the fixing sleeve inflates to an appropriate degree, ensuring a tight fit around the patient's surgical limb. This device effectively encloses the surgical area, without affecting the surgical procedure, and prevents waste fluid from splashing out during surgery, thus effectively eliminating the risk of occupational exposure for medical staff. At the same time, the collected waste fluid flows smoothly into the collection bag below, effectively preventing contamination of the operating room floor and eliminating the risk of medical staff slipping and falling due to a wet floor.

[0039] The parts not covered in this utility model are the same as or can be implemented using existing technologies.
