Detailed Implementation
[0030] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

Furthermore, features defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.
[0032] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0033] In the preoperative preparation process, it is necessary to sort and classify the surgical sutures. Sorting and classifying the surgical sutures can ensure smooth suture removal and efficient operation during the operation.
[0034] In existing technologies, during the preoperative preparation process, the drape is usually folded to form multiple different layers. Surgical sutures of different thicknesses are placed in different layers of the drape, with only a small section of the head suture protruding outside the drape. A sterile drape covers the sutures on both sides above and below, using the friction between the sutures and the drape to fix the sutures in place, preventing them from being lost or misplaced. The sterile drape also protects the sutures from bacterial contamination from the external environment.
[0035] Using folded sheets to create different layers for suture classification has several drawbacks. First, to ensure convenient suture access, the folded sheet must meet various requirements, such as forming a stepped shape, covering the tray below, and ensuring that sutures in other layers remain within the sheet's constraints when one layer is opened. This makes the suture sorting process inconvenient and inefficient. Furthermore, because different nurses use different methods to sort and place sutures, there is a lack of unified standards and norms, which can easily lead to deviations and misunderstandings during handover between nurses. Moreover, there are no fixed sections on the sheet for different types of sutures, making handover between nurses difficult.
[0036] Furthermore, sutures need to be soaked in water before use to keep them moist. In existing technology, after the sutures are soaked in water, the sheet covering the sutures will also be soaked, which can easily breed bacteria, making it difficult to maintain a sterile environment in the operating room and increasing the risk of surgical infection.
[0037] Therefore, this utility model embodiment designs a surgical suture sorting clip 100 that can classify and limit different types of sutures 200 and can wet the sutures 200 so that the sutures 200 are in a moist state after being removed. This ensures that different types of sutures 200 can be stably fixed in their respective fixed areas, forming a unified standard and specification for suture 200 sorting. It also reduces the likelihood of deviations and misunderstandings during handover between nurses, simplifies the handover process, and prevents bacterial growth at the sutures 200 when they are not in use, thus improving surgical safety.
[0038] The surgical suture sorting clip 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0039] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the surgical suture sorting clip 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a first clip body 1 and a second clip body 2.
[0040] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the second clamp 2 is connected along the first direction (e.g., Figure 1 The rotating shaft 3, extending in the direction shown in Figure A, is connected to the first clamping body 1, and the second clamping body 2 is in the direction shown in Figure A. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The clamping position shown is similar to that shown in the figure. Figure 3 The open position shown is rotatably set in the first clamp 1. Under the action of external force, the surgical suture sorting clamp 100 drives the second clamp 2 to rotate to the open position. When the second clamp 2 of the surgical suture sorting clamp 100 is in the open position, the part of the structure to be clamped can be moved between the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 through the clamping opening 101 of the surgical suture sorting clamp 100. After the external force is removed, the second clamp 2 rotates from the open position to the clamping position under the action of the restoring force. After contacting the part of the structure to be clamped, it is limited. The first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 clamp and fix the part of the structure to be clamped. In this way, the surgical suture sorting clamp 100 can be fixedly set on the structure clamped by it, ensuring the stability of the surgical suture sorting clamp 100.
[0041] Furthermore, the surface of the first clamp 1 facing away from the second clamp 2 is formed with a second direction perpendicular to the first direction (e.g., Figure 1Multiple sorting slots 113 extending in the direction shown in B and open at both ends are spaced apart in the first direction to store different types of sutures 200. Thus, the multiple sorting slots 113 can be used to limit and store different types of sutures 200 respectively. Different types of sutures 200 can have corresponding partitions for storage and limiting. Different types of sutures 200 can be stably fixed in their respective fixed areas, which is convenient for nurses to operate.
[0042] Furthermore, multiple sorting slots 113 are spaced apart in the first direction, which can limit the suture 200 in the sorting slots 113 to gradually thicken from the first side of the first direction to the second side of the first direction, or directly limit the suture 200 in each sorting slot 113 and mark it at the corresponding position to unify the standard and specification of suture 200 sorting. When nurses hand over their sutures, it is less likely to cause deviations and misunderstandings, and the handover process between nurses is simplified.
[0043] Furthermore, an absorbent sponge 4 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the sorting groove 113. During preoperative preparation, the absorbent sponge 4 can be soaked first, and a portion of the suture 200 is placed inside the sorting groove 113, contacting the absorbent sponge 4 on the inner wall of the sorting groove 113. The suture absorbs the liquid stored in the absorbent sponge 4, forming a moist suture 200. The remaining portion of the suture 200, when not in use, is placed outside the sorting groove 113, not in contact with the absorbent sponge 4, and remains in a dry state to prevent bacterial growth. When retrieving the suture 200, medical staff can pull the suture 200 outward from one side of the sorting groove 113 in a second direction, so that each part of the suture 200 passes through the sorting groove 113 in sequence, contacting and being soaked by the absorbent sponge 4 inside the sorting groove 113, so that the entire suture 200 is moist after being removed.
[0044] According to the surgical suture sorting clip 100 of this utility model embodiment, the surgical suture sorting clip 100 can classify different types of sutures 200, and different types of sutures 200 can be stably fixed in their respective fixed areas. It can also wet the sutures 200 so that the sutures 200 are in a moist state after being removed, thereby improving surgical safety.
[0045] In some embodiments, the surgical suture sorting clip 100 is a disposable device to ensure sterility during the surgical procedure.
[0046] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the first clamping body 1 is provided with a first limiting structure 111 and a second limiting structure 112. The first limiting structure 111 and the second limiting structure 112 are arranged opposite to each other in a first direction, and a sorting groove 113 is defined between the first limiting structure 111 and the second limiting structure 112. The first limiting structure 111 and the second limiting structure 112 limit the seam 200 on both sides in the first direction. The first clamping body 1 is also limited by the seam 200 on one side in a direction perpendicular to the first clamping body 1. The seam 200 is disposed in the sorting groove 113. The sewing thread 200 located in the sorting groove 113 can move along the second direction or move away from the first clamp 1 along the direction perpendicular to the plane where the first clamp 1 is located. The end of the second limiting structure 112 away from the first clamp 1 and the end of the first limiting structure 111 away from the first clamp 1 define the inlet 114. In other words, the sewing thread 200 extending along the second direction can move towards the first clamp 1 along the direction perpendicular to the plane where the first clamp 1 is located through the inlet 114 and enter the sorting groove 113.
[0047] The suture 200 extending along the second direction can also enter or leave the sorting groove 113 through the openings at both ends of the sorting groove 113 in the second direction by moving along the second direction.
[0048] Therefore, during the process of storing the sewing thread 200, a portion of the sewing thread 200 enters the sorting groove 113 through the thread inlet 114 and comes into contact with the absorbent sponge 4 in the sorting groove 113, forming a moist sewing thread 200. The remaining portion of the sewing thread 200 is placed outside the sorting groove 113 and does not come into contact with the absorbent sponge 4, thus keeping it in a dry state and preventing bacterial growth.
[0049] When taking out the suture 200, medical staff can pull the suture 200 outward along the second direction from one side of the sorting groove 113, so that each part of the suture 200 passes through the sorting groove 113 in sequence and comes into contact with the water-absorbing sponge 4 in the sorting groove 113. The suture 200 is moistened by the water-absorbing sponge 4 in the sorting groove 113, so that the entire suture 200 is wet after being taken out.
[0050] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the inner wall of the sorting groove 113 formed by the first limiting structure 111 extends inclined away from the second limiting structure 112 in the direction close to the first clamp 1, and the inner wall of the sorting groove 113 formed by the second limiting structure 112 extends inclined away from the first limiting structure 111 in the direction close to the first clamp 1. Thus, the sorting groove 113 gradually widens in the direction close to the first clamp 1 and gradually narrows in the direction close to the thread inlet 114. The suture 200 stored in the sorting groove 113 can be more stably limited by the first limiting structure 111 and the second limiting structure 112, and the suture 200 stored in the sorting groove 113 is not easy to leave the sorting groove 113 through the thread inlet 114.
[0051] like Figure 4 As shown, the absorbent sponge 4 includes a first part 41 and a second part 42. The first part 41 and the second part 42 can be two independent parts, or the first part 41 and the second part 42 can be an integral structure. The first part 41 is fixed to the first limiting structure 111, and the second part 42 is fixed to the second limiting structure 112. A gap is formed between the side of the first part 41 away from the first limiting structure 111 and the side of the second part 42 away from the second limiting structure 112. This gap is used to accommodate the suture 200. By utilizing the gap between the absorbent sponges 4 to accommodate the suture 200, on the one hand, the absorbent sponges 4 can replenish water to the suture 200, ensuring that the suture 200 is wetted by the liquid after passing through the absorbent sponges 4. On the other hand, the absorbent sponges 4 can also be used to fix the suture 200. In some embodiments, the absorbent sponges 4 can clamp the suture 200 on both sides of the suture 200, based on the pressure and friction of the suture 200, to prevent the suture 200 from falling out of the sorting groove 113.
[0052] Specifically, there is a first gap 43 and a second gap 44 between the first part 41 and the second part 42. The width of the first gap 43 in the first direction is narrower than the width of the second gap 44 in the first direction. The second gap 44 is connected to the thread inlet 114 through the first gap 43. The second gap 44 is mainly used for fixing and storing the suture 200. The second gap 44 has enough space to store enough sutures 200. The first gap 43 is mainly used to guide the suture 200 during the process of placing it into the sorting slot 113. The suture 200 is guided to the second gap 44. After the suture 200 enters the sorting slot 113 through the thread inlet 114, it will first enter the first gap 43 and move along the first gap 43 towards the first clamping plate until the suture 200 moves into the space defined by the second gap 44 and is stored there.
[0053] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5The distance between the end of the first limiting structure 111 and / or the second limiting structure 112 away from the first clamping body 1 and the first clamping body 1 is H, where H is greater than 0.5cm and less than 1.5cm, to ensure the limiting effect of the first limiting structure 111 and the second limiting structure 112 on the sewing thread 200, and to ensure that the first limiting structure 111 and the second limiting structure 112 can define a sorting slot 113 with sufficient space to accommodate the sewing thread 200.
[0054] Furthermore, the connection between the first limiting structure 111 and the first clamp 1 and the connection between the second limiting structure 112 and the first clamp 1 extend in the same direction, and the distance between the two connection points is M, which is greater than 0.5cm and less than 1.5cm. This is to ensure that the first limiting structure 111 and the second limiting structure 112 can define a classification slot 113 with sufficient space to accommodate the sewing thread 200, while avoiding the classification slot 113 being too wide and affecting the limiting effect.
[0055] Furthermore, the length of the first limiting structure 111 and / or the second limiting structure 112 is L, which is greater than 4cm and less than 8cm, to ensure that the classification groove 113 contains a suture 200 of sufficient length. The suture 200 contained in the classification groove 113 is long enough to ensure that the suture 200 is not easily tangled during extraction, which is more conducive to improving surgical efficiency.
[0056] like Figure 5 As shown, the ends of the multiple sorting slots 113 are respectively provided with different suture specification markings 103. During the preoperative preparation process, the nurse can directly process the sutures 200 according to the different suture specification markings 103 set at the ends of the sorting slots 113, and place the sutures 200 of the corresponding specification into the corresponding sorting slots 113.
[0057] As a result, different types of sutures 200 can be stably fixed in their respective fixed areas, forming a unified standard and specification for suture 200 arrangement. This reduces the likelihood of deviations and misunderstandings during handover between nurses, simplifies the handover process, and improves surgical efficiency.
[0058] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a clamping opening 101 is defined between one end of the first clamping body 1 in the second direction and one end of the second clamping body 2 in the second direction, and a pressing opening 102 is defined between the other end of the first clamping body 1 in the second direction and the other end of the second clamping body 2 in the second direction. Without the action of external force, the first clamping body 1 and the second clamping body 2 move closer to each other in the direction close to the clamping opening 101.
[0059] Specifically, without external force, the end of the first clamp 1 near the clamp opening 101 is in contact with the end of the second clamp 2 near the clamp opening 101, and the end of the first clamp 1 near the pressure opening 102 is far away from the end of the second clamp 2 near the pressure opening 102. When the user needs to fix the surgical suture sorting clip 100 to the edge of the tray, pressure needs to be applied to the surface of the first clamp 1 facing away from the second clamp 2 and the surface of the second clamp 2 facing away from the first clamp 1 on the side of the surgical suture sorting clip 100 near the pressure opening 102. This drives the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 on the pressure opening 102 side of the surgical suture sorting clip 100 to move closer to each other, thereby separating the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 on the clamp opening 101 side of the surgical suture sorting clip 100. This allows the edge of the tray to be inserted between the separated first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 on the clamp opening 101 side of the surgical suture sorting clip 100, and then the application of external force to the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 is stopped.
[0060] A reset member 5 is also provided between the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2. The reset member 5 is located on the side of the rotating shaft 3 near the pressure port 102. The reset member 5 provides a force to the second clamp 2 away from the first clamp 1. Thus, when the user applies pressure to the surface of the first clamp 1 away from the second clamp 2 and the surface of the second clamp 2 away from the first clamp 1, driving the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 on the pressure port 102 side of the surgical suture sorting clip 100 to move closer to each other, the reset member 5 is compressed and continues to have elastic potential energy. When the pressure is removed, the reset member 5 releases elastic potential energy, driving the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 on the pressure port 102 side of the surgical suture sorting clip 100 to move away from each other, thereby causing the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 on the clamping port 101 side of the surgical suture sorting clip 100 to move closer to each other. The first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 on the clamping port 101 side of the surgical suture sorting clip 100 move closer to each other and clamp the edge of the tray, thus fixing the surgical suture sorting clip 100.
[0061] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the sorting groove 113 is located in the suture storage area 11 on the first clamp 1. The suture storage area 11 is located on the surface of the first clamp 1 near the clamp opening 101 and spaced apart from the pressure opening 102. The part of the first clamp 1 near the pressure opening 102 needs to withstand external force, that is, the user needs to press this part with their fingers to apply external force to the first clamp plate, driving the second clamp plate to rotate relative to the first clamp plate around the rotating shaft 3. The suture storage area 11 and the pressure opening 102 are spaced apart to ensure that the part of the user applies pressure is flat, easy to apply external force, and will not come into contact with the suture 200, reducing the frequency of contact with the suture 200 and ensuring sterility.
[0062] Reference Figure 5The suture 200 includes a storage portion 201 housed within a sorting slot 113, a head 202 extending from the side of the sorting slot 113 near the pressure port 102 to the outside of the sorting slot 113, and a tail 203 extending from the side of the sorting slot 113 near the clamping port 101 to the outside of the sorting slot 113. When the suture 200 needs to be retrieved during surgery, medical personnel need to extract the corresponding suture 200 from the head 202 and pull it outwards in a second direction. Corresponding to the suture 200, part of the suture 200 in the sorting groove 113 is pulled out through the opening on the side of the sorting groove 113 near the pressure port 102. The tail 203 of the suture 200 outside the sorting groove 113 enters the sorting groove 113 through the opening on the side of the sorting groove 113 near the clamp 101, is soaked by the water-absorbing sponge 4, and is then pulled out through the opening on the side of the sorting groove 113 near the pressure port 102. The extracted suture 200 is the wet suture 200 after being soaked by the water-absorbing sponge 4.
[0063] The tail section 203 is much longer than the storage section 201 to ensure that when the suture 200 is not removed, enough suture 200 is kept dry outside the sorting slot 113 to prevent bacterial growth. The storage section 201 is longer than the head section 202, and the suture 200 of the head section 202 is exposed to the outside to ensure that the suture 200 of the head section 202 is short enough to ensure the sterility of the suture 200.
[0064] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the surgical suture sorting clip 100 further includes a tray and a sheet, with at least a portion of the sheet covering the tray. Thus, during the suture 200 storage and sorting process, in order to ensure the sterility of the suture 200 and prevent external splashes from contaminating the suture 200, a sterile sheet is required to cover and protect the suture 200. The tray is used to store and sort the suture 200, the sheet, and other surgical instruments placed on the sheet. The first clip 1 and the second clip 2 are respectively clamped to the edge of the tray and the upper and lower sides of the sheet covering the edge through the clamping opening 101. The first clip 1 is located above the tray, so the suture 200 stored on the first clip 1 can also extend to the top of the tray, be carried and stored by the tray, and be covered and protected by the sheet placed on the tray. The tail 203 of the suture 200 extends to the top of the sheet covering the tray, and the sheet is folded to cover the tail 203 of the suture 200.
