Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of electrosurgical instruments technology, specifically a surgical electrode pre-packaged. Background Technology

[0002] Surgical electrodes, as disposable sterile instruments, are generally sterilized using ethylene oxide, plasma, or irradiation after packaging. Their initial packaging typically consists of a blister pack and dialysis paper. During the sterilization process after packaging, the sterilization medium can easily penetrate the packaging material, killing microorganisms on the product surface; the heat-sealed blister pack and dialysis paper further prevent external microorganisms from entering the packaging, thus ensuring the sterilized product is sterile before unpacking and use. Figure 1 This diagram illustrates the traditional initial packaging of surgical electrodes. The blister pack has different locking mechanisms designed to secure the electrodes inside, preventing damage during transport and ensuring the sterile barrier function of the packaging. Problems with traditional blister pack locking mechanisms include: if the locking mechanism is too tight, the electrodes are securely held, but difficult for doctors to remove; if the locking mechanism is too loose, the electrodes can easily detach, and the sharp tip of the electrode can easily puncture the packaging, compromising the sterile barrier. Therefore, the traditional packaging structure places high demands on the design of the locking mechanisms inside the blister pack.

[0003] On the other hand, when changing instruments after unpacking, operators require a safe and sterile placement location for the surgical electrodes to ensure they are not easily dropped, thus maintaining their sterility. Currently, the surgical electrodes are placed directly on the sterile surgical sheet on the operating table without being secured, posing a risk of them falling off and becoming contaminated. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the above problems, this utility model provides a patent subject name to solve the problems of improper storage of surgical electrodes, easy puncture of the packaging by the tip of the surgical electrode, and inability to temporarily fix the surgical electrode during surgery.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A surgical electrode initial packaging includes a blister pack, an electrode storage box, and dialysis paper. The blister pack has a placement cavity. The end of the blister pack is sealed by the dialysis paper. The electrode storage box is located in the closed space formed by the placement cavity of the blister pack and the dialysis paper. The electrode storage box is used to hold the surgical electrode.

[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a fixing post is provided at the bottom of the placement cavity; a positioning hole is provided on the electrode storage box; the position of the positioning hole matches the position of the fixing post, and the size of the positioning hole matches the size of the fixing post.

[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the electrode storage box includes a storage compartment and a bendable fixing piece. The bendable fixing piece is disposed at one end of the electrode storage box, and a horizontal card is disposed in the middle of the storage compartment. A fixing hole for fixing the surgical electrode is disposed in the middle of the horizontal card.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the flexible fixing plate is provided with a cable fixing groove on its side; the cable fixing groove is used to fix the cable of the surgical electrode; and the end of the flexible fixing plate is provided with a fixing buckle.

[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the electrode storage box has an opening on its side wall, which cooperates with a bendable card to hold the movable end of the bendable card.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a cleaning groove is provided on the side wall of the electrode storage box. The cleaning groove is Y-shaped, and the width of the bottom opening of the cleaning groove is consistent with the thickness of the surgical electrode to the end.

[0012] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the blister pack and the dialysis paper are connected by heat sealing.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] The addition of an electrode storage box to the blister pack simplifies the blister pack's structure and reduces the design requirements for the blister pack's fixing clips. It also reduces the risk of the traditional blister pack being punctured by the surgical electrode tip. This effectively solves the problem of surgical electrodes easily falling off during surgery due to the lack of a fixed, sterile placement location, and also addresses the issue of cleaning the surgical electrode tip after it adheres to scab tissue during surgery.

[0025] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments. The description in this part is only exemplary and explanatory, and should not be used to limit the protection scope of this utility model in any way. Example

[0026] like Figure 1-9As shown, a surgical electrode 4 initial packaging includes a blister box 1, an electrode storage box 2, and dialysis paper 3. The blister box 1 has a placement cavity; the end of the blister box 1 is sealed by the dialysis paper 3. The electrode storage box 2 is located within the closed space formed by the placement cavity of the blister box 1 and the dialysis paper 3, and is used to place the surgical electrode 4. A fixing post 11 is provided at the bottom of the placement cavity; a positioning hole 21 is provided on the electrode storage box 2; the position of the positioning hole 21 matches the position of the fixing post 11, and the size of the positioning hole 21 matches the size of the fixing post 11. The electrode storage box 2 includes a storage compartment 23 and a bendable fixing piece 24, which is disposed at one end of the electrode storage box 2. A horizontal card 28 is provided in the middle of the storage compartment 23; a fixing hole 29 for fixing the surgical electrode 4 is provided in the middle of the horizontal compartment; a cable fixing groove 26 is provided on the side of the bendable fixing piece 24; the cable fixing groove 26 is used to fix the cable of the surgical electrode 4; a fixing buckle 27 is provided at the end of the bendable fixing piece 24; an opening is provided on the side wall of the electrode storage box 2, the opening cooperates with the bendable card 25 to lock the movable end of the bendable card 25; a cleaning groove 22 is provided on the side wall of the electrode storage box 2, the cleaning groove 22 is Y-shaped, and the width of the bottom opening of the cleaning groove 22 is the same as the thickness of the surgical electrode tip; the blister box 1 and the dialysis paper 3 are connected by heat sealing.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, the blister box 1 is generally made of PETG / APET material through a blister forming process. Its internal placement cavity structure is simplified to a flat structure. A fixing post 11 is set at the bottom of the placement cavity to position the electrode storage box 2. The fixing post 11 is a raised feature with a height H of 5~10mm and a diameter D that matches the diameter of the positioning hole 21 on the electrode storage box 2.

[0028] like Figure 2 or Figure 4 As shown, the electrode storage box 2 is made of PE / PVC material and has a one-end sealed structure. A horizontal card 28 is provided in the middle, and the horizontal card 28 has a fixing hole 29. The fixing hole 29 serves as a fixing hole for the electrode handle, a cleaning groove 22, a plug and cable storage compartment 23, and a bendable fixing piece 24. The diameter of the fixing hole 29 is determined according to the diameter of the surgical electrode 4 handle, ensuring that the electrode tip does not touch the bottom of the electrode storage box 2 after the front end of the surgical electrode 4 handle is locked in the fixing hole 29. The cleaning groove 22 facilitates cleaning of the electrode tip by the user during surgery, and its upper part has a tapered design, such as... Figure 6-7 As shown, the lower dimensions are designed as follows: the width of the cleaning tank 22 is T=t+0.5mm, and the height is H≥w+1mm, where t is the electrode tip thickness and w is the electrode tip width t.

[0029] A bendable card 25 is provided above the storage compartment 23. Before the surgical electrode 4 is inserted, the bendable card 25 is in a vertical position. After inserting the handle and plug cable of the surgical electrode 4 into the plug cable storage compartment 23, the bendable card 25 is bent 90° and inserted into the corresponding opening on the side wall of the electrode storage box 2. This fixes the handle and plug cable of the surgical electrode 4 inside the electrode storage box 2.

[0030] The specific working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0031] During the production and packaging of surgical electrode 4, the handle and cable of surgical electrode 4 are first placed in electrode storage box 2. Then, electrode storage box 2 containing surgical electrode 4 is placed inside blister box 1. Ensure that the positioning hole 21 on electrode storage box 2 fits into the positioning post 11 inside blister box 1. Finally, heat-seal dialysis paper 3 to blister box 1. The initial packaging of surgical electrode 4 is then complete. This packaging structure effectively secures the position of surgical electrode 4 within blister box 1, preventing the surgical electrode 4 tip from puncturing blister box 1 or dialysis paper 3 during transportation, and also facilitates easy access during use.

[0032] Before using surgical electrode 4, remove it from electrode storage box 2 and secure it to the sterilized surgical sheet using clips or straps via the bendable fixing piece 24 on the electrode storage box 2. Simultaneously, place the cable into the cable fixing slot 26 for easy access. Figure 8 As shown, during the use of surgical electrode 4, if tissue scabs adhere to the electrode tip, affecting its cutting ability, the surgical electrode 4 tip can be placed in the electrode tip cleaning slot 22 of the electrode storage box 2. Dragging the electrode tip will cause the two side walls of the cleaning slot 22 to scrape away the scabs on the electrode tip surface. Figure 9 As shown, when it is necessary to replace other instruments during use, the operator can insert the surgical electrode 4 handle into the handle positioning hole 21 to avoid the risk of the surgical electrode 4 falling off and causing contamination.
