Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical sheath technology, and in particular to an active flexible guiding sheath. Background Technology
[0002] In the clinical treatment of urinary tract stones, the ureteral guiding sheath is an essential instrument. During surgical procedures, the ureteral guiding sheath dilates the ureter before inserting the endoscope and other instruments, creating a channel for continuous manipulation. It also protects the ureter during instrument exchanges, reducing the possibility of trauma. Furthermore, the sheath not only serves as an instrument channel but also as a pathway for the removal of fragmented stones. After lithotripsy, the fragments can be aspirated through the negative pressure interface of the guiding sheath, while simultaneously protecting delicate instruments and flexible endoscopes from damage, reducing costly repairs.
[0003] Due to the complex structure of the urinary tract, to minimize damage to the urinary tract during the insertion of the guiding sheath, clinical practice typically employs a flexible ureteroscope combined with a flexible guiding sheath and related lithotripsy equipment for stone removal. However, current flexible guiding sheaths often use distally passively bendable sheaths, whose bending direction and degree are not adjustable by the surgeon, making it difficult to access the lesion area, requiring a high level of skill from the surgeon, and easily leading to unsatisfactory suction results.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, existing technologies typically incorporate a bending control mechanism into the guide sheath. For instance, Chinese utility model patent application number CN202323310844.X discloses a ureteral guide sheath capable of large-angle bending. This guide sheath features a control handle on its sheath body, connected to the distal end of the sheath body via a pull line. This allows urologists to actively change the bending direction of the distal end of the sheath body by pulling the pull line, facilitating the distal end of the sheath's approach to the lesion area and effectively preventing damage to the urinary tract during insertion. However, the aforementioned ureteral guiding sheath only has two bending directions: the rotation of the turntable can only pull the distal end of the sheath upwards or downwards via two pull lines, thus limiting the bending direction. For stones located in special positions in the renal pelvis or calyces, there are situations where the sheath cannot reach these special positions, making it difficult to attract or remove the fragments. In particular, for special cases of calyx stenosis, the distal end of the sheath cannot pass through the calyx and remove the stones within it due to the limited bending direction. Although the bending direction of the distal end of the sheath can be further fine-tuned by rotating the entire ureteral guiding sheath, rotating the entire ureteral guiding sheath can easily damage the urinary tract and requires a high level of skill from the operator.
[0005] How to solve the above problems has become an urgent technical issue. Utility Model Content
