Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to medical instrument technical field especially relates to a medical ruler. BACKGROUND
[0002] Arteriovenous fistulization is a common clinical method, which is a common surgical method for establishing an arteriovenous pathway artificially by using vascular surgery, usually including autologous vascular fistulization (AVF) and artificial vascular fistulization (AVG). Doctors need to perform vascular ultrasound or angiography on patients before the operation, and preliminarily confirm the vascular pathway form to be established and the appropriate length of the graft.
[0003] At the present stage of clinic, the surgeon usually uses gentian violet water-based pen to outline the vascular pathway establishment pre-form, vascular pre-anastomosis position and graft pre-length at the patient's operation site. This method not only requires the surgeon to have skilled vascular suturing technology, but also needs to have a large amount of and rich vascular fistula transplantation clinical experience, and has the ability to estimate the accuracy of vascular implant length, which increases the limitation on the surgeon. In addition, due to the three-dimensional form of the human body and the large individual differences of patients, the operation site is not a standard plane or straight line type but a three-dimensional curved surface form. Even if the surgeon has the above conditions, most patients still need to be further adjusted and trimmed by the doctor during the operation. This increases the complexity and operation time of the surgical method, and brings higher risk to the patient. Especially for patients who need AVG fistulization, the artificial vascular products have different specifications and models, and the length is different. If the length of the vascular graft required by the patient cannot be determined before the operation, the doctor cannot accurately select the specification of the artificial vascular implant required by the patient, which increases the difficulty of selection or replacement of the artificial vascular implant, and further increases the economic burden of the patient.
[0004] The existing clinical medical ruler is regular or standard in shape, such as metal ruler and orthopedic ruler, which cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the differences of patients. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT
