Universal lubrication reduced pressure medical surgical suture needle

PendingCN122350789ASuturing needleTissue fluid
This invention discloses a fully lubricated and decompression-reducing medical surgical suture needle, belonging to the field of medical device technology. Existing smooth suture needles easily create a closed negative pressure when penetrating tissue, resulting in high needle insertion resistance and potential tissue compression damage. Traditional locally grooved suture needles cannot achieve full-length drainage, are not designed according to standard needle diameter classifications, and coated lubricated suture needles suffer from performance degradation and failure after repeated sterilization. This invention features a through-type V-shaped groove on the main force-bearing surface of the needle body, configured with four cross-sectional structures, matching the groove depth and layout angle according to the standard nominal diameter of the medical suture needle, and avoiding the needle tip puncture section and the needle tail threading section. During puncture, a small amount of tissue fluid on the surface can be drained to form a dynamic lubrication layer, breaking the puncture negative pressure and achieving fully lubricated and decompression puncture. All parameters of this invention comply with the YY / T 0166-2022 industry standard, exhibiting high structural strength, sterilization resistance, and ease of mass production. It is suitable for clinical use in multiple departments, effectively reducing intraoperative tissue damage and improving surgical suturing quality.
