Description

Auxiliary glove for colonoscope operation

Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of medical instruments, in particular to a colonoscope operation auxiliary glove.

Background

With the increasing health awareness, early screening for cancer will become more popular, and colonoscopy is the most effective method for early screening for colorectal cancer, so it is medically recommended that adults over 50 years of age need colonoscopy every year. Currently, a single-person colonoscope insertion method is generally adopted in colonoscopy, when the colonoscope is operated according to the operation method, the left hand of an operator operates a handle of the colonoscope, the upper and lower angle knobs and the left and right angle knobs are toggled to control the upper and lower and left and right rotation of the tip part where a lens is located, and the right hand operates a colonoscope body to push in or withdraw from an insertion tube part. The left hand of the operator operating the handle needs to use the thumb and ring finger to poke the up-down/left-right angle control knob together while gripping and lifting the handle. Because the handle is heavy and bulky, the angle knobs in the up-down direction and the left-right direction are outwards protruded, and the function control keys at the upper end of the operating handle are too far away from the angle knobs, so that the angle knobs are poked by fingers, and the control of the function keys is difficult to be considered simultaneously, therefore, operators often need to stretch and adjust hands, and effective operation can be realized.

After an operator operates for a long time, the fingers, the palms, the wrist joints and the left forearms of the left hand all have obvious ache feeling; cumulative injuries, such as tenosynovitis, muscle strain and other diseases, commonly occur in operators who perform colonoscopy operations for many years; in addition, the finger pulp of the finger is painful due to long-time repeated pressing; these problems are more severe in the population of operators with smaller palm sizes.

In particular, the stud 4 effectively reduces the instances of instability in the grip handle and angle control knob that occur when the operator wears gloves. The stud 4 may, but need not, be a rubber cleat.

In one embodiment, the outer side of the fingertip extension 2 is provided with a non-slip protrusion 4. In this case, the fingertip extension portion 2 can be prevented from slipping.

In one embodiment, the glove body is provided with a fastening portion 5; the fastening portion 5 is distributed over the second and third knuckles of the thumb, index finger, middle finger, ring finger, and little finger.

In one embodiment, the fastening portion 5 is in the shape of a strip. Specifically, the fastening portion 5 may be in the shape of an ellipse, a rectangle, or the like, and the fastening portion 5 may also be a ring-shaped band that surrounds the knuckle portion.

In one embodiment, the fastening portion 5 is a strip that projects towards the inside of the glove body to increase the fit of the operator's fingers to the glove.

In one embodiment, the fastening portion 5 is arranged laterally, i.e. perpendicular to the finger length, and has contractive elasticity. In this case, the tightness of the glove can be increased, preventing the glove from falling off during handling.

In one embodiment, the fastening portion 5 is provided on a ventral side of the thumb, index finger, middle finger, ring finger, and little finger, which is a side where the palm position of the glove body is located, that is, a side opposite to the dorsum of the thumb, index finger, middle finger, ring finger, and little finger of the glove body.

In one embodiment, the second knuckle of the thumb portion includes two laterally spaced fastening portions 5, the second knuckle and the third knuckle of the index finger portion include three laterally spaced fastening portions 5, the second knuckle and the third knuckle of the middle finger portion include three laterally spaced fastening portions 5, the second knuckle and the third knuckle of the ring finger portion include three laterally spaced fastening portions 5, and the second knuckle and the third knuckle of the little finger portion include two laterally spaced fastening portions 5.

In one embodiment, adjacent fastening portions 5 located at the same knuckle are spaced apart by a distance of 5 millimeters.

In one embodiment, the glove body comprises an inner glove layer 3 and an outer glove layer 1 which are connected into a whole, and the inner glove layer 3 and the outer glove layer 1 are made of different materials. Specifically, the glove outer layer 1 is made of rubber, the glove inner layer 3 is made of rubber, and the glove inner layer 3 and the glove outer layer 1 are connected into a whole in a hot melting mode, for example, the glove outer layer and the glove inner layer can be connected into a whole in a hot melting mode by adopting resin particles. The outer layer 1 of the glove can be made of materials such as polyethylene, nitrile rubber or polyvinyl chloride to enhance the durability of the glove, and the inner layer 3 of the glove can be made of soft materials such as latex, non-woven fabrics and gauze to enhance the comfort of an operator.

In one embodiment, the fingertip extensions 2 comprise an attached end and a free end, the attached end being embedded between the glove inner layer 3 and the glove outer layer 1.

In one embodiment, the first knuckle of the thumb, the first knuckle of the index finger, the first knuckle of the middle finger, the first knuckle of the ring finger and the first knuckle of the little finger are respectively provided with a hard skeleton. In this case, the operator's maneuverability to the first knuckle of the glove can be enhanced and the durability of these locations can be improved. Specifically, the hard frame may be made of a material such as resin.

In one embodiment, a rigid skeleton is embedded between the inner layer 3 and the outer layer 1 of the glove. The hard framework is embedded between the glove inner layer 3 and the glove outer layer 1, so that the fingers of an operator are not easily obstructed and rubbed by the hard framework compared with the condition that the hard framework is connected to the glove inner layer 3; handling of the hard skeleton is improved compared to the case where the hard skeleton is attached to the glove outer layer 1.

In one embodiment, the rigid skeleton is integrally formed with the fingertip extension 2.

In one embodiment, the palm side and the back side of the glove body are symmetrically identical. In this case, the glove is not distinguished by the left and right hands, so that it is easy to sterilize, easy to wear, and suitable for use in a special environment of a hospital.

The use method of the auxiliary glove for colonoscopy operation provided by the embodiment of the invention is similar to that of common medical gloves, and the configuration of the auxiliary glove for colonoscopy operation provided by the embodiment of the invention is suitable for various gloves made of materials used in colonoscopy operation and can be repeatedly used for many times.
