[0029] Bone marrow is the body's hematopoietic tissue, located within the medullary cavity. Bone marrow aspiration is the procedure of using a specialized needle to insert into the medullary cavity from a selected bone site and extract a small amount of bone marrow fluid for laboratory testing. The principle behind this procedure is based on the fact that bone marrow contains abundant hematopoietic stem cells and various blood cell precursors. Changes in the morphology, quantity, and function of these cells can reflect the body's hematopoietic function and the presence of disease.
[0030] Bone marrow aspiration is a common and important medical examination procedure that plays a crucial role in the diagnosis, treatment monitoring, and prognostic assessment of hematological diseases and various systemic diseases. It provides doctors with direct sample data to gain a deeper understanding of the physiological and pathological state of human bone marrow, which is of great significance for precision medicine.
[0031] Bone marrow aspiration, a classic medical examination method, has provided crucial information for the diagnosis and treatment of countless patients over the past few decades. With the continuous development of medical technology, bone marrow aspiration techniques are constantly being improved and refined. For example, the development of new aspiration instruments and intelligent assistance systems for the procedure further enhance the accuracy and safety of the procedure. Simultaneously, combining bone marrow aspiration with other advanced detection technologies (such as gene sequencing and flow cytometry) can provide more comprehensive and accurate information for disease diagnosis and treatment, leading to better treatment outcomes and quality of life for patients. In the future, bone marrow aspiration is expected to play a vital role in more fields, making a greater contribution to medical development and human health.
[0032] I. Structure and Principle of Bone Marrow Biopsy Needles
[0033] (I) Basic Structure
[0034] Bone marrow biopsy needles typically consist of a core, an outer sheath, and a handle. The core has a sharp cutting edge at its tip for penetrating bone and cutting bone marrow tissue; the outer sheath protects the core, holds the obtained bone marrow tissue, and controls the puncture depth. The handle is ergonomically designed for easy gripping and manipulation by the physician, ensuring stability and accuracy during the puncture process. Different types of bone marrow biopsy needles may vary slightly in their specific structure, but they are all generally designed around these core components.
[0035] (II) Working Principle
[0036] Its working principle is based on mechanical cutting and tissue acquisition. After the doctor inserts the bone marrow biopsy needle into the bone marrow cavity, the cutting edge of the needle core cuts the bone marrow tissue through rotation and advancement. The cut bone marrow tissue is then collected in the outer cannula. This method of directly obtaining bone marrow tissue can completely preserve the tissue structure of the bone marrow, providing more comprehensive and accurate information for pathological diagnosis. Compared with simply aspirating bone marrow fluid through bone marrow puncture, the sample obtained by the biopsy needle is more conducive to observing the distribution and arrangement of bone marrow cells and the bone marrow microenvironment.
[0037] (III) Maintenance and Care of Bone Marrow Biopsy Needles
[0038] 1. Cleaning: After use, the bone marrow biopsy needle should be cleaned promptly to remove contaminants such as blood and tissue residue from the surface. Generally, rinse with clean water first, then soak and scrub with a special instrument cleaning agent to ensure that the inside and outside of the needle core, outer cannula, and other components are thoroughly cleaned.
[0039] 2. Disinfection and Sterilization: After cleaning, the biopsy needle must undergo strict disinfection and sterilization to prevent cross-infection. Common disinfection methods include high-temperature autoclaving and ethylene oxide sterilization. Before sterilization, ensure the biopsy needle is completely dry to avoid affecting the sterilization effect due to residual moisture.
[0040] 3. Inspection and Maintenance: Regularly inspect the bone marrow biopsy needle to check for sharpness of the core, deformation or damage to the outer sheath, and sturdiness of the handle. If any problems are found, repair or replace the affected parts promptly. Store the biopsy needle properly to avoid impact and damage.
[0041] Bone marrow biopsy plays an irreplaceable role in clinical diagnosis, providing crucial histological evidence for the diagnosis of hematological diseases (such as leukemia, lymphoma, and myelodysplastic syndrome), certain infectious diseases (such as malaria and leishmaniasis when pathogens invade the bone marrow), and bone metastases from malignant tumors. Through pathological examination of bone marrow tissue, doctors can determine the type, stage, and progression of the disease, thereby developing precise treatment plans.
[0042] With the continuous development of medical technology, bone marrow biopsy needles are also constantly being improved and innovated. In the future, more intelligent and precise bone marrow biopsy needles may emerge, making the operation simpler and safer, obtaining higher-quality tissue samples, and causing less trauma to patients. At the same time, combined with advanced imaging technologies (such as ultrasound guidance and CT guidance), the accuracy of bone marrow biopsy needle puncture will be further improved, providing stronger support for clinical diagnosis and treatment, and making a greater contribution to human health.
[0043] Please see Figure 1-3As shown, this embodiment provides a bone marrow biopsy needle with a handle, including: a needle handle 1 and a puncture tail column 3. A biopsy needle core 2 is provided at one end of the needle handle 1, and one end of the biopsy needle core 2 is threaded into the needle handle 1. A puncture needle 4 is connected to the end face of the puncture tail column 3 away from the needle handle 1. Both the puncture tail column 3 and the puncture needle 4 are located on the periphery of the biopsy needle core 2. A handle 16 is sleeved on the periphery of the puncture needle 4.
[0044] The biopsy needle core 2 is fitted with a central connecting post 5 and a movable connecting post 6 on its periphery. Both the central connecting post 5 and the movable connecting post 6 are located between the needle handle 1 and the puncture tail post 3. The movable connecting post 6 is located on the end face of the central connecting post 5 near the needle handle 1. A transmission gear ring 7 and four driven gear rings 8 are rotatably fitted inside the central connecting post 5. The transmission gear ring 7 is fitted around the four driven gear rings 8. The four driven gear rings 8 are evenly distributed around the periphery of the biopsy needle core 2. The driven gear rings 8 mesh with the inner wall side of the transmission gear ring 7. A rotating part is rotatably fitted on the side of the central connecting post 5. The rotating part meshes with the outer wall side of the transmission gear ring 7. A screw 9 corresponding to the driven gear ring 8 is installed on the end face of the movable connecting post 6 near the central connecting post 5. The screw 9 is slidably fitted inside the central connecting post 5 and around the threaded side of the driven gear ring 8. The movable connecting post 6 is slidably fitted around the periphery of the biopsy needle core 2.
[0045] One application of this embodiment is as follows: In use, firstly, adjust the distance between the intermediate connecting post 5 and the movable connecting post 6 according to the patient's condition. During this process, first rotate the rotating component clockwise, causing the rotating component to drive the transmission gear ring 7 to rotate. Simultaneously, the transmission gear ring 7 drives the four driven gear rings 8 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the driven gear rings 8 drives the screw 9 to slide. The sliding of the screw 9 pushes the movable connecting post 6 away from the intermediate connecting post 5. When the distance between the movable connecting post 6 and the intermediate connecting post 5 reaches the appropriate position, release the rotating component. Then, holding the needle handle 1, sequentially pass the biopsy needle core 2 through the movable connecting post 6, the intermediate connecting post 5, the puncture tail post 3, and the puncture needle 4 to perform the subsequent bone marrow retrieval operation. It should be noted that all electrical equipment involved in this application can be powered by a storage battery or an external power source.
[0046] By rotating the rotating component, the transmission gear ring 7 drives the driven gear ring 8 to rotate, thereby driving the screw 9 to slide within the intermediate connecting post 5. This facilitates the adjustment of the distance between the intermediate connecting post 5 and the movable connecting post 6 according to the patient's condition, improves the accuracy of the overall length adjustment of the intermediate connecting post 5 and the movable connecting post 6, reduces the need to prepare multiple intermediate connecting posts 5 of different lengths, and lowers the cost of use. Through the cooperation between the transmission gear ring 7 and the four driven gear rings 8, the rotating component can drive the four screws 9 to slide synchronously, improving the stability of the movable connecting post 6 during sliding.
[0047] like Figure 2As shown, the intermediate column 5 in this embodiment is provided with an annular groove 12 and four annular grooves 23. The annular grooves 213 are connected to the annular groove 12. The transmission gear ring 7 is rotatably engaged in the annular groove 12, and the driven gear ring 8 is rotatably engaged in the corresponding annular groove 213. The annular grooves 12 and 213 facilitate the provision of movement space for the transmission gear ring 7 and the driven gear ring 8, and facilitate the meshing of the driven gear ring 8 and the transmission gear ring 7, reducing the probability of disengagement between the driven gear ring 8 and the transmission gear ring 7.
[0048] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown, in this embodiment, one end face of the intermediate connecting post 5 is provided with four sliding grooves 15, and the second annular groove 13 is located on the periphery of the corresponding sliding groove 15. The second annular groove 13 is connected to the sliding groove 15, and the screw 9 is slidably engaged in the corresponding sliding groove 15. The sliding groove 15 facilitates the movement of the driven gear ring 8 to drive the screw 9 to slide in the intermediate connecting post 5, and provides storage space for the screw 9.
[0049] like Figure 3 As shown, the rotating component in this embodiment includes a throttle 10. One end of the throttle 10 extends into the interior of the intermediate column 5. A bevel gear 11 is mounted on one end face of the throttle 10. The bevel gear 11 is rotatably engaged in the intermediate column 5. The bevel gear 11 meshes with the outer wall side of the transmission gear ring 7. The transmission gear ring 7 includes an inner gear ring. A bevel gear 2 is provided on the periphery of the inner gear ring. The bevel gear 11 meshes with the bevel gear 2. By rotating the throttle 10, the bevel gear 11 is driven to rotate, thereby causing the bevel gear 11 to rotate and drive the bevel gear 2 and the inner gear ring to rotate, and causing the inner gear ring to rotate and drive the driven gear ring 8 to rotate.
[0050] like Figure 3 As shown, the intermediate connecting column 5 in this embodiment is provided with a movable groove 14, and the bevel gear 11 is rotatably engaged in the movable groove 14. The movable groove 14 is connected to the annular groove 12. The side of the intermediate connecting column 5 is provided with a rotating hole that is connected to the movable groove 14. One end of the handle 10 is rotatably engaged in the rotating hole. The movable groove 14 provides a space for the bevel gear 11 to move, reducing the probability of the bevel gear 11 disengaging from the transmission gear ring 7.
[0051] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the movable connector 6 has an annular groove 1 on one end face, and the puncture tail column 3 has an annular groove 2 on one end face. The annular groove 1 and the annular groove 2 have the same diameter, and the inner diameter of the annular groove 1 and the annular groove 2 is larger than the outer diameter of the biopsy needle core 2. The needle handle 1 has an annular post 1 on one end face that is adapted to the annular groove 1 and the annular groove 2. The annular post 1 is located on the periphery of the biopsy needle core 2. By the annular post 1 cooperating with the annular groove 1 or the annular groove 2, it is convenient to connect the needle handle 1 with the movable connector 6 or the puncture tail column 3, thereby reducing the probability of misalignment between the needle handle 1 and the movable connector 6 or the puncture tail column 3.
[0052] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the annular post is provided with an external thread 17 on one circumference, the annular groove is provided with an internal thread 18 that matches the external thread 17 on one circumference, and the annular groove is provided with an internal thread 20 that matches the external thread 17 on the other circumference. In use, the external thread 17 and the internal thread 18 cooperate to fix the needle handle 1 and the movable connector 6 together, thereby limiting the length of the biopsy needle core 2 through the puncture needle 4. The external thread 17 and the internal thread 18 cooperate to fix the needle handle 1 and the puncture tail post 3 after they are separated from the biopsy needle core 2 together, thereby facilitating the use of the puncture needle 4 to perform puncture operations on the patient.
[0053] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the end face of the intermediate connecting post 5 away from the movable connecting post 6 is provided with an annular post 2 that is adapted to the annular groove 2. The annular post 2 is located on the periphery of the biopsy needle core 2. The periphery of the annular post 2 is provided with an external thread 2 19. The external thread 2 19 is the same as the external thread 1 17. In use, the needle handle 1 and the puncture tail post 3 are first connected together by threads. Then, the puncture needle 4 is inserted into the bone marrow. Then, the needle handle 1 and the puncture tail post 3 are separated. The needle handle 1 and the biopsy needle core 2 are first connected and fixed. Then, the needle handle 1 and the movable connecting post 6, the intermediate connecting post 5 and the puncture tail post 3 are connected together, so that the biopsy needle core 2 passes through the puncture needle 4 to remove the bone marrow. The external thread 2 19 and the internal thread 2 20 are matched to make it easy to fix the movable connecting post 6 and the puncture tail post 3 together, so that the entire biopsy needle is fixed, making it easy for the biopsy needle core 2 to pass through the puncture needle 4 to remove the bone marrow.
