Ultrasound-Guided Needle Puncture Device with Adjustable Guide Hole
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current medical ultrasound systems struggle to precisely insert injection needles due to two-dimensional imaging, leading to potential errors in targeting veins or arteries, especially for unskilled operators, which can result in inaccurate treatments and safety risks.
Innovation Solution
A guide device for injection needle puncture that includes a body with a guide hole tilted at a specific angle, a sliding member to adjust the distance from the ultrasound apparatus, and a scales part to measure the separation distance, allowing for precise adjustment of the needle's entry path and angle, facilitating precise insertion even by unskilled personnel.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If a guide device with fixed angle guide hole is used, then insertion angle precision is improved, but adaptability to different target positions deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The guide hole is made rotatable relative to the body, allowing the insertion angle to be dynamically adjusted according to different target positions while maintaining precise angle control during the actual insertion process
Solution Approach 2:
The guide device is divided into a body and a rotatable guide part, allowing independent adjustment of the guide hole angle while maintaining the structural integrity and precision guiding function of the overall device
2Adaptability or versatility
If the guide hole is made rotatable to adjust insertion angle, then adaptability to different target positions is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The guide device is segmented into a body and a rotatable guide part, allowing angle adjustment functionality to be added without redesigning the entire device structure
Solution Approach 2:
The guide hole angle is adjusted preliminarily before needle insertion based on the target position, allowing the device to adapt to different positions without requiring complex real-time adjustment mechanisms during the procedure

AI summary
Provided is a guide device for injection needle puncture. The guide device for needle puncture according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises: a body; a guide part which has a guide hole provided therein so as to be tilted at a certain angle along the height direction, the guide hole allowing an injection needle to pass therethrough so that during injection needle puncture, the insertion angle of the injection needle can be constantly maintained; and a sliding member which is coupled to the body so as to be slidingly movable, wherein the spaced distance between the guide hole and a medical ultrasound apparatus is adjusted through relative movement of the body or the sliding member so that a target location into which the distal end of the injection needle is inserted can be located on entrance path of the injection needle.
