Bronchoscopes TRIZ Cases
- Curved Laryngoscope Blade Tongue Control Without Flange
Dual-curvature laryngoscope blades displace the tongue and epiglottis without a flange, preventing teeth damage during intubation.
- Modular Surgical Retactor With Interchangeable Blades
Interchangeable tongue blades and a lockable hinge on a surgical retractor reduce patient trauma by allowing quick adjustment and emergency removal.
- Ultrasonic Endoscope Distal End Unit Tilted Transducer
Tilting the distal end unit improves insertability while maintaining sufficient contact area for reliable ultrasound image visualization.
- Endoscope Flexible Cladding Tube for Steam Sterilization Protection
A flexible vapor-tight cladding tube protects the endoscope image guide from steam corrosion and friction damage while allowing joint articulation.
- Video Laryngoscope Control Button Positioning and Light Shielding
Forward button placement clears the display view while a light-tight wall blocks emitter glare from the image sensor.
- Autonomous Lumen Centering for Endobronchial Access Devices
Processor articulates the drive mechanism to align the distal end with the identified centerpoint, reducing navigation time and tissue damage risk.
- Medical Scope Teleconferencing for Remote ENT Diagnostics
A medical scope with an embedded processor streams real-time video to remote specialists via a network connection.
- Notched Airway Device for Jaw Thrust and Endoscope Guidance
A notched airway device engages patient teeth to maintain mandible position and features a longitudinal channel for endoscope passage.
- Bronchoscope Adapter Integrating Sealing and Locking Functions
A sealing and locking adapter integrates elastomeric valve and clamping mechanisms to resolve device interchange complexity during bronchoscopy procedures.
- Endobronchial Tube with Integrated Image Sensor for Carina Monitoring
Integrating an image sensor into the tube eliminates time-consuming external verification while maintaining airflow patency.
- Sensor-Equipped Laryngoscope for Quantifying Intubation Mechanics
A sensor-equipped laryngoscope measures force and torque applied during intubation to provide objective performance data.
- 3D Bronchoscopy Guidance via Position Sensor Tracking
A flexible endoscope with an embedded position sensor tracks its own orientation to generate a real-time 3D airway model for visual guidance.
- Multispectral Fluorescence Tissue Classification Using Deep Learning
A multispectral fluorescence sensor system analyzes excitation-emission matrices using deep learning neural networks for precise biological tissue characterization.
- Portable Endoscope Testing Kit for Rapid Surgical Readiness Assessment
A portable endoscope testing kit uses an optical test target and magnification loupes to assess device functionality.
- Autologous Dermal Fibroblast Formulation for Vocal Fold Scarring
Cryopreserved autologous dermal fibroblasts regenerate extracellular matrix components in the vocal cord lamina propria layer.
- Pediatric Nasal Endoscope With 2 mm Biopsy Channel
A flexible pediatric nasal endoscope with high-resolution optics and a 2 mm biopsy channel enables unsedated transnasal examinations.
- 3D Physical Model Navigation for Medical Devices Without X-Ray
A processor moves a dummy device in a physical 3D model to mimic internal medical tool positions, eliminating hazardous X-ray radiation during navigation.
- Adaptive Insertion Force Threshold for Flexible Instrument Buckling
A surgical robotic system regulates insertion force using dynamic thresholds to prevent flexible instrument buckling during minimally invasive procedures.
- 2D Scanning Videokymography for Vocal Fold Vibration Analysis
A 2D scanning videokymography system captures and analyzes vocal fold mucosa vibrations in real time.
