Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of surgical suture storage technology, and in particular to a surgical suture fixing box. Background Technology

[0002] Surgical sutures, also known as surgical sutures or surgical threads, are special sutures used in surgical procedures or trauma treatment for ligation and suturing to stop bleeding and for tissue repair.

[0003] Surgical sutures come in various thicknesses, and the most basic principle for selecting sutures is to use the thinnest sutures possible while maintaining high tensile strength and minimizing tissue reaction. The thickness of each suture is indicated by a number followed by zeros; a higher number indicates a thicker suture. The diameter of the suture is measured in millimeters.

[0004] These surgical sutures are packaged in sterile, sealed bags and are only opened for use during surgery. There are various sizes of surgical sutures, each packaged into bundles. Each time a suture of the required size is used, one bundle is taken out. Each surgical procedure may require several sutures, and different areas of the wound require different sizes. Furthermore, the suture size must be selected based on the specific condition of the wound during each suturing operation. Therefore, a package typically contains several sutures of the same size bundled together, and only one is pulled out when needed.

[0005] During actual surgery, surgical sutures need to be soaked in saline solution. This serves several purposes: disinfection, cleaning the suture ends, and adjusting tension. After soaking, the sutures need to be drained before reuse. Currently, a sterile container filled with saline solution is typically used. The sutures are then pressed into the saline solution, but they tend to float on top, making the process inconvenient and requiring continuous pressing. Furthermore, there is currently no separate draining device; the sutures are placed directly on a sterile drape, which absorbs the saline solution, hindering subsequent procedures.

[0006] If the surgical sutures are not used up, they will be used again later. However, once the suture bundle is pulled out, it is difficult to distinguish with the naked eye. This means that the corresponding surgical sutures must be re-inserted into the suture needle each time a different wound is sutured, which is a cumbersome operation and will also affect the operation time.

[0007] Based on this, the present invention designs a surgical suture fixing box to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0008] The purpose of this invention is to provide a surgical suture fixing box. This device includes a soaking pool to hold physiological saline for soaking surgical sutures, and a suture reel to wind and store the surgical suture bundle. The reel can be secured to a rotating shaft for winding or unwinding. A mesh frame is added to allow the surgical sutures on the reel to be immersed in the soaking pool along with the sutures, while also allowing them to be lifted and hung on a hanging groove to drain. This prevents the saline on the surgical sutures from being absorbed by other pads, ensuring that the surgical sutures remain moist throughout the surgical procedure. Furthermore, this device can pre-stretch and stretch the surgical sutures, and can also classify and store surgical sutures and needles, making it convenient to use. Therefore, this device integrates multiple functions and solves various problems encountered in suturing surgery.

[0040] Please see Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model provides a surgical suture fixation box. To better understand the above technical solution, the following will describe the above technical solution in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0041] In a specific embodiment of the technical solution of this utility model:

[0042] Includes box body 1, wire frame 2, box lid 3, and needle threader 4;

[0043] The box body 1 is a stable base. The top of the box body 1 is recessed downward to form a soaking pool 11 and a hanging groove 12. The soaking pool 11 is a closed groove with an opening at the top, and the hanging groove 12 is a long groove with an opening at the top. The soaking pool 11 is located on the front side of the top of the box body 1, and the front side of the soaking pool 11 is located at the front edge of the top of the box body 1, that is, the soaking pool 11 is set against the front side wall of the box body 1. The hanging groove 12 is located on the rear side of the soaking pool 11, and the hanging groove 12 is located outside the rear edge of the soaking pool 11. The hanging groove 12 is not connected to the soaking pool 11.

[0044] The hanging groove 12 is a long, narrow groove arranged in the left-right direction, with the front edge of the hanging groove 12 parallel to the rear edge of the soaking pool 11. This parallel alignment design allows for easy hanging of the hooks 21 of the mesh frame 2, thus enabling the mesh frame 2 to be suspended for drainage, and also makes it easy to place it into the soaking pool 11 for immersion.

[0045] The mesh frame 2 is open at the top, and its sides and bottom are all flat and isolated. The bottom of the mesh frame 2 is a mesh plate, ensuring that the mesh frame 2 is not sealed, but allows water from the soaking pool 11 to pass through the bottom mesh plate into the mesh frame 2. The sides of the mesh frame 2 can also be mesh plates. A hook 21 is also provided on the top rear side of the mesh frame 2, and the mesh frame 2 is stably hung on the hanging groove 12 through the hook 21. The height of the mesh frame 2 is less than half the depth of the soaking pool 11, that is, ensuring that when the mesh frame 2 is hung in the hanging groove 12, the bottom of the mesh frame 2 is above the surface of the saline solution in the soaking pool 11. When the mesh frame 2 is placed inside the soaking pool 11, the entire spool 24 can be immersed below the liquid surface, and when suspended by the hook 21, the line on the spool 24 does not come into contact with the liquid surface, thus effectively draining water.

[0046] The hook 21 has a U-shaped groove structure with an opening at the bottom and is long and narrow, which makes it easy to hang the wire mesh frame 2.

[0047] Multiple mesh frames 2 are sequentially spliced ​​together in the left-right direction to form an integral long strip structure. Each mesh frame 2 is isolated from each other. A bearing 23 is set in the vertical side wall inside each mesh frame 2. The bearing 23 can only be installed on the left or right side wall of the mesh frame 2, and cannot be installed on the front side wall. It is necessary to ensure that the bearing 23 rotates in the front-back direction to facilitate the pulling of the surgical suture during the operation and to make it easy to hang the stretched surgical suture on the suture hanger 13. A rotating shaft 22 is horizontally inserted on the bearing 23. A suture spool 24 is also stably installed on the rotating shaft 22. A suture spool 24 is installed in each mesh frame 2 through the bearing 23 and can rotate.

[0048] A locking bead 25 is also provided on the side wall of the rotating shaft 22. The locking bead 25 is a spring plunger. The winding drum 24 is stably locked onto the rotating shaft 22 by the locking bead 25. When the locking bead 25 is pressed back, the winding drum 24 can be removed from the rotating shaft 22. The elastic force of the locking bead 25 is designed to have a small supporting force. Under normal circumstances, if the winding drum 24 is pulled forcefully, the locking bead 25 can retract, and the winding drum 24 can be easily pulled off the rotating shaft 22.

[0049] The top of the box 1 is also equipped with multiple suture hangers 13 and a needle threader 4; the needle threader 4 has a curved guide tube 41, which has the same shape and curvature as the surgical suture needle. While conventional needle threaders 4 have a straight guide tube for the needle tip, this device is designed for surgical needles, so the guide tube is a curved tube that matches the surgical needle, ensuring the needle is positioned at the threading point. The needle threader 4 is a commonly used device for threading needles; this device simply adapts the shape of the needle threader 4 to match the needle tip shape. This device is an existing addition.

[0050] The number of suture hangers 13 is the same as the number of mesh frames 2. Each mesh frame 2 has a suture hanger 13 on its back side. The suture hangers 13 need to be aligned with the mesh frame 2 to ensure that the surgical suture in the suture spool 24 inside the mesh frame 2 can be pulled to the suture hanger 13 and hung there to prevent the surgical suture from falling off and flying away. The suture hanger 13 has a sheet-like structure. A V-shaped groove is opened at the top of the suture hanger 13. The V-shaped groove can hold the surgical suture to ensure that it is firmly hung and to prevent the suture end from slipping off.

[0051] Each suture holder 13 is also equipped with a marking mark 14 on the front side. The marking mark 14 is a number engraved on it, and the number marked on the marking mark 14 is the same as the specification number of the surgical suture. For example, there are No. 1, No. 4 and No. 7 surgical sutures, etc. The marking mark 14 of this device can be marked with the same number as the surgical suture. Each marking mark 14 is different.

[0052] The lid 3 is a lid with an opening at the bottom. The top plate of the lid 3 is a top plate 31 with a magnet inside. The magnet can be directly embedded inside the lid 3. The lid 3 is magnetically attracted to the top of the box body 1 by the magnet of the top plate 31, thus covering the top of the box body 1.

[0053] The bottom of the top plate 31 is also provided with multiple crisscrossing partitions 32, which divide the bottom of the top plate 31 into multiple different sections. The height of the partitions 32 is no more than 2mm. This height makes it easy to clamp or manually hold the surgical needle, and also makes it easy to position the surgical needle to prevent it from moving around on the top plate 31.

[0054] The top plate 31 is divided into rectangular sections of the same size by partition strips 32, and the width of the shortest side of each section is not less than 3cm;

[0055] The box cover 3 is divided into multiple sections by the partition strip 32, each section is marked with a number, i.e., 1, 2, 3, etc., to count the number of suture needles. After the operation, the needles can be counted to avoid omissions.

[0056] The side wall of the lid 3 also has multiple cable trays 33. These cable trays 33 are U-shaped and open at the bottom of the side wall of the lid 3. Each section of the top plate 31 has a corresponding cable tray 33. The cable trays 33 are evenly distributed on the side wall of the lid 3, with adjacent cable trays 33 spaced evenly and in contact with each other. A surgical suture on a surgical needle is pulled along one cable tray 33 to prevent unused suture ends from tangling.

[0057] It should be noted that:

[0058] 1. During suturing surgery, multiple surgical sutures are required, especially for surgeries in the abdominal and thoracic cavities. Different skin thicknesses require different types of surgical sutures, and different opening sizes also require different lengths of surgical sutures. Generally, the length of surgical sutures varies depending on the type, ranging from 5 to 15 cm per suture. When suturing the abdominal cavity, thinner sutures may be used at the thinner edges of the incision, while thicker sutures are needed for the thicker middle sections. Unused thin sutures do not need to be removed from the suture needle; they can be stretched and hung in the partition strip 32 on the back of the top plate 31. The unused sutures are then stretched through the suture groove 33 to prevent tangling and knotting. When the incision is sutured to a thinner section and the same type of surgical suture needs to be reused, it can be directly removed. Unused surgical sutures can only be reused when different parts of the same patient's body need to be used in the same surgery.

[0059] 2. Surgical sutures are usually in bundles, which are easily pulled and caught when laid out on the operating table, causing inconvenience during the operation. This device can wind and store the surgical sutures through the suture reel 24. When needed, one suture can be pulled out and stretched on the suture holder 13. It is simple to operate, convenient to use, and does not require a lot of space for sterile cloth.

[0060] In use, the surgical sutures need to be removed from the packaging first, and then wound onto the suture spool 24. At this time, a complete bundle of surgical sutures of the same type is wound and stored on the same spool 24. Then, the spools 24 formed by each different type of surgical suture are placed in the corresponding mesh frame 2 at the front of the suture holder 14.

[0061] Next, immerse the mesh frame 2 in the soaking pool 11, which is pre-filled with physiological saline, just enough to submerge the suture reel 24. After the surgical suture is soaked, remove the mesh frame 2 from the soaking pool 11 and hang the entire mesh frame 2 in the hanging groove 12 using the long U-shaped hook 21, so as to facilitate the drainage of the surgical suture on the suture reel 24.

[0062] Then, take one of each different type of surgical suture and pull it on the suture holder 13. When needed, insert the surgical needle into the needle tube 41 and then thread the surgical suture through the needle threader 4.

[0063] This design facilitates suturing by doctors. Once a suture of each type is removed and used, a new suture must be pulled from the spool 24 and hung on the suture holder 13. Therefore, only new sutures are pulled on the suture holder 13, with one end of the suture secured to the holder 13 and the other end still wound on the spool 24.

[0064] Unused surgical sutures after suturing require the surgical needle to be attracted to the partition 32 on the bottom surface of the top plate 31, and the remaining unused suture ends to be pulled into the suture tray 33 for reuse. Ensure the box cover 3 and unused suture ends are on the sterile drape of the operating table to avoid contamination. This allows used needles to be magnetically positioned at the bottom of the top plate 31, and unused surgical sutures to be pulled out, facilitating the surgeon's ability to change needles during suturing and making the procedure more flexible. All components of this device must be placed on the sterile drape of the operating table to ensure a clean environment. The device also requires sterile packaging, with one set used per patient to prevent cross-infection.

[0065] The top of this device refers to the top of the box 1 when it is stably placed; while the bottom refers to the side of the box 1 with the lid 3 covering it, facing downwards. The indicated orientation or positional relationship is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and is only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description. It does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0066] While specific embodiments of the present invention have been described above, those skilled in the art should understand that the specific embodiments described are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Equivalent modifications and variations made by those skilled in the art in accordance with the spirit of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
