摘要:
A device for suctioning material out of an instrument channel during an endoscopic procedure. The device includes a biopsy valve having a first end, a second end, and an outer circumferential surface. The biopsy valve defines an internal passage leading from the first end to the second end, wherein the first end is adapted for connection to an endoscope instrument channel inlet port. Tubing connects the biopsy valve second end to a suction source connector disposed remote from the biopsy valve. A flow controller is fixed to the tubing and disposed between the biopsy valve second end and the suction source connector. The device may include an irrigation port and an instrument entry port.

An endoscope system (1) composed of an endoscope (2) and a treatment device (3), in which first and second conduit systems (20, 30) are formed on the endoscope (2) side. After tissue to be collected is grasped by the treatment device (3), the treatment device (3) is pulled back into a forceps channel (15) and a biopsy cup (79) is opened. After that, water is fed to and sucked from the collected tissue by using the first and second conduit systems (20, 30), and the tissue is recovered to a tissue capture device (17) from a tissue suction conduit (46).

In the endoscope system 1, a tissue recovery device 3 that recovers tissue is directly mounted on an endoscope 2. The tissue recovery device 3 has a filter portion, and the filter portion is inserted so as to traverse the conduit of the suction conduit 20 that passes inside the endoscope operation portion 10. The suction conduit 20 opens to the distal end portion of the endoscope insertion portion 11, and the working channel 23 branches off from the branch portion 22 that is provided further on the distal end side than the insertion location of the tissue recovery device 3. With this endoscope system, it is possible to reduce operational burden of the operator with regard to the endoscope system that includes the tissue recovery device that recovers tissue.

An overtube (14) for an endoscope (12) includes a tube body (72), a balloon (74), a first-communication-path (86), a second-communication-path (96), a first-mouthpiece (82), a second-mouthpiece (92), a first-connection-section (84) which is provided on the first-mouthpiece, and a second-connection-section (94) which is provided on the second-mouthpiece. The balloon is dilatably/deflatably provided on the tube body. The first-communication-path extends from a distal-end-portion toward a proximal-end-portion of the tube body in a state in which the first-communication-path communicates with the balloon. The second-communication-path extends from a hollow-portion toward the proximal-end-portion of the tube body. The first-mouthpiece projects from the tube body and includes a path communicating with the first-communication-path. The second-mouthpiece projects from the tube body and includes a path communicating with the second-communication-path. The first-connection-section is connected to a first-feed-portion (106) of a fluid-feed-mechanism and is prevented from being connected to a second-feed-portion (116) of the fluid-feed-mechanism. The second-connection-section is connected to the second-feed-portion and is prevented from being connected to the first-feed-portion.
摘要:
A surgical system includes a first instrument defining a first channel and a second instrument receivable by the first channel. The second instrument defines a second channel. A valve coupled to the first instrument controls fluid flow through the first channel, such that impedance of fluid flow through the first channel is substantially the same without the second instrument received in the first channel and with the first channel partially blocked by the second instrument. In another aspect, a surgical apparatus includes an outer member and an inner member received within the outer member to define a first channel therebetween. The inner member houses an optical lens and defines a second channel for receiving a surgical instrument. The first and second channels are configured such that a pump having an inflow rate of up to about 0.7 L/min connected to the second channel can maintain fluid pressure inside an organ.

A modular endoscope valve assembly (30) is releasably mounted on the handpiece (12) of an endoscope (10). This valve assembly includes an inlet port (32), an outle port (34), and a valve (36) manually operable selectively to block and to allow the flow of irrigation fluid from the inlet port to the outlet port. The valve assembly is releasably held to the handpiece (12) of the endoscope (10) by a mechanical fastener such as a pressure-sensitive adhesive (40), a strap (42), a snap lock, or otherwise. Once the valve assembly (30) is releasably mounted to the handpiece, the physician using the endoscope can manually control the flow of irrigation fluid, and optionally suction, with the same hand as the one that supports the handpiece, thereby leaving the other hand of the physician free for surgical procedures. The modular valve assembly (30) of this invention can be used with the widest variety of endoscopes, including flexible, rigid and semi rigid ureteroscope as well as various percutaneous endoscopes.

The invention relates to previously known surgical instruments which are provided with a gas delivery device (10) for supplying a rare gas or similar inert gas to a tissue treatment area and a device (20) for rinsing a target zone, especially the tissue treatment area. The aim of the invention is to reduce the technical complexity of such an apparatus. Said aim is achieved by generating the rinsing pressure by means of the inert gas of the gas delivering device (10).

A high-pressure steam sterilization device (41) and a high-pressure steam sterilization method, the device comprising a chamber (42) for storing medical equipment such as an endoscope, a steam feeding device (43), a vacuum pump (44), and a control part (45), wherein the steam feeding device (43) feeds steam into the chamber (42), the vacuum pump (44) depressurizes the inside of the chamber (42), and the control part (45) controls the steam feeding device (43) and the vacuum pump (44); the method comprising a first depressurizing step having a step for depressurizing the inside of the chamber (42), a high-pressure steam sterilizing step for pressurizing the inside of the chamber (42), and a second depressurizing step having a step for depressurizing the inside of the chamber (42), whereby, even if high-pressure steam sterilization is performed, the internal parts of the medical equipment can be prevented from being deteriorated by moisture since the medical equipment stored in the chamber is sterilized by high-pressure steam.
摘要:
An anesthetic laryngoscope with manual controlled oxygen ejection means is provided with oxygen supply tubes down the laryngoscope handle and the laryngoscope blade, the oxygen supply tube in the laryngoscope hand is inserted in the oxygen supply tube in the laryngoscope blade and the former is provided with a manual controlled oxygen blockage valve.
