Selon l'état de la technique antérieure, la protection des stethoscopes est traditionnellement effectuée selon l'un des quatre procédés qui suivent, dont aucun ne suffit à les garantir en permanence contre les vecteurs des maladies nosocomiales tels l'air recyclé ou les mains des intervenants According to the state of the prior art, the protection of stethoscopes is traditionally carried out according to one of the following four processes, none of which is sufficient to permanently guarantee them against the vectors of nosocomial diseases such as recycled air or the hands of speakers

Soit les personnels font appel à trois procédés d'asepsie: - les lingettes pré-imbibées de solution antiseptique, - les patchs autocollants à usage unique fixés à la membrane lors de l'auscultation, - les protections latex, basées sur le concept du préservatif en latex, à usage Either staff use three aseptic procedures: - pre-soaked wipes with antiseptic solution, - disposable self-adhesive patches attached to the membrane during auscultation, - latex protections, based on the concept of condoms latex, for use
unique, utilisées pendant l'auscultation. unique, used during auscultation.
Les trois procédés antérieurs d'asepsie actuellement utilisés présentent tous trois deux inconvénients. Ils nécessitent d'abord une asepsie active avant chaque auscultation, ce qui réclame de ne jamais oublier d'utiliser à chaque fois une unité antiseptique au risque sinon de rendre l'asepsie illusoire et ce qui interdit toute asepsie continue et permanente. Les trois procédés nécessitent ensuite un récipient de distribution de chaque unité antiseptique, ce qui implique: - que ce récipient soit à portée de main du praticien car l'auscultation en urgence ne tolère pas que l'on cherche à l'autre bout d'un service le distributeur de lingettes et plus généralement le praticien ne perdra pas son temps à chercher ce distributeur (oubli dans la voiture par exemple pour le praticien libéral), - que ce récipient n'encombre pas le praticien déjà suffisamment surchargé, tout en étant accessible sans déplacement ni temps d'attente, que ce récipient ne soit pas volé ou dégradé, le vol de matériel médical The three prior asepsis methods currently used all have two drawbacks. They first require an active asepsis before each auscultation, which requires never to forget to use each time an antiseptic unit at the risk if not to make the asepsis illusory and which prohibits any continuous and permanent asepsis. The three methods then require a dispensing container for each antiseptic unit, which implies: - that this container is close to the practitioner's hand because emergency auscultation does not tolerate that we seek at the other end a service the dispenser of wipes and more generally the practitioner will not waste his time looking for this dispenser (forgotten in the car for example for the liberal practitioner), - that this container does not clutter the practitioner already sufficiently overloaded, while being accessible without movement or waiting time, that this container is not stolen or damaged, the theft of medical equipment
étant fréquent en institution et générant un coût considérable. being frequent in institutions and generating a considerable cost.
Les deuxième et troisième procédés ci-dessus présentent en outre l'inconvénient de créer un interface entre le stethoscope et le corps ausculté, si The second and third methods above also have the disadvantage of creating an interface between the stethoscope and the body being examined, if
bien que le praticien peut y voir un obstacle à la qualité de l'auscultation. although the practitioner may see this as an obstacle to the quality of auscultation.
Enfin, aucun des quatre procèdés susdécrits n'assure une protection physique de l'embout du stéthoscope et notamment de sa fragile membrane Finally, none of the four processes described above provides physical protection for the tip of the stethoscope and in particular for its fragile membrane.
contre les chocs.against shocks.
Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients. The device according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks.
Il comporte en effet selon une première caractéristique un boîtier contenant une mousse indétachable et imbibée de tout produit ou principe antiseptique non corrosif pour l'embout du stéthoscope qu'il a pour objet de contenir, le boîtier étant percé d'un orifice destiné à assurer le passage du tuyau du stéthoscope à travers l'une de ses parois. Le boîtier est muni d'un fermoir ou " clip " en " V " assurant doublement d'une part, en dehors de l'auscultation, la fermeture du boîtier conservant une circulation d'air empêchant la macération de l'embout qu'il contient et d'autre part, pendant l'auscultation, le rattachement au manche du stéthoscope du boîtier vide entr'ouvert According to a first characteristic, it indeed comprises a box containing a non-detachable foam and soaked with any non-corrosive antiseptic product or principle for the tip of the stethoscope which it aims to contain, the box being pierced with an orifice intended to ensure the passage of the stethoscope tube through one of its walls. The casing is provided with a clasp or "clip" in a "V" shape ensuring on the one hand, apart from auscultation, the closure of the casing retaining air circulation preventing maceration of the endpiece which it contains and on the other hand, during the auscultation, the attachment to the handle of the stethoscope of the empty half-opened case
préalablement remonté le long du tuyau. previously reassembled along the pipe.
Selon des modes particuliers de réalisation: - la mousse ou matière équivalente peut être amovible du boîtier (pour changement périodique éventuel), - le boîtier peut être de forme circulaire, parallélépipédique, ou autres, - le boîtier peut être de matière rigide ou souple, - le boîtier peut comporter un clip d'accrochage distinct du fermoir ou clip de fermeture, l'accrochage pendant l'auscultation se faisant au manche du stéthoscope ou sur un vêtement du praticien, - le boîtier peut, sans comporter de clip d'accrochage au tuyau du stéthoscope, être relié par une cordelette ou chaînette de rappel ou par tout système adhésif au manche ou tuyau du stéthoscope ou à tout vêtement ou objet proche pendant l'auscultation, - le boîtier peut ne comporter aucun système de " clip" ou d'accrochage, È5 restant fixé à l'embout hors auscultation mais s'ouvrant du côté de l'orifice avant l'auscultation, étant alors pris en main par le praticien et placé à proximité ou sur lui, - le boîtier peut comporter une ou deux excroissances offrant une préhension des mains propre à permettre plus commodément son ouverture, - la mousse destinée à retenir le liquide antiseptique peut être remplacée par un autre matière textile ou aux propriétés équivalentes, - le produit antiseptique peut être remplacé par une association de tels produits, - le boîtier peut être remplacé par une couche de mousse externe plus rigide According to particular embodiments: - the foam or equivalent material can be removable from the housing (for possible periodic change), - the housing can be circular, parallelepiped, or other, - the housing can be of rigid or flexible material, - the case can include a hooking clip separate from the clasp or closing clip, the hooking during the auscultation being done on the handle of the stethoscope or on a practitioner's clothing, - the case can, without including a hooking clip to the stethoscope tube, be connected by a reminder cord or chain or by any adhesive system to the handle or tube of the stethoscope or to any item of clothing or close object during auscultation, - the case may not include any "clip" system or hooking, È5 remaining fixed to the endpiece outside auscultation but opening on the side of the orifice before auscultation, being then taken in hand by the practitioner and placed close to tee or on it, - the housing may include one or two protuberances providing a grip of the hands clean to allow its opening more conveniently, - the foam intended to retain the antiseptic liquid can be replaced by another textile material or with equivalent properties, - the antiseptic product can be replaced by a combination of such products, - the case can be replaced by a more rigid outer foam layer
entourant la mousse interne imbibée. surrounding the soaked internal foam.
Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention. The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention.
La figure 1 représente de trois-quarts le dispositif de l'invention selon Figure 1 shows three-quarters of the device of the invention according to
la première caractéristique ci-dessus mentionnée et en position ouverte. the first feature mentioned above and in the open position.
La figure 2 représente en coupe le dispositif de l'invention selon une Figure 2 shows in section the device of the invention according to a
combinaison de deux variantes.combination of two variants.
En référence à ces dessins, le dispositif comporte un boîtier (1) contenant une mousse (2) imbibée d'un liquide antiseptique (3) pour l'embout (4) et la membrane (5) du stéthoscope qu'il contient tous deux et dont l'une des faces, opposée à celle d'ouverture, est munie d'un orifice (6) ayant une forme correspondante à celle du manche du stéthoscope (7) le long duquel le boîtier est remonté dans le sens indiqué en (8) avant auscultation durant laquelle il est fixé à ce manche à cette hauteur grâce au clip d'ouverture et de With reference to these drawings, the device comprises a housing (1) containing a foam (2) soaked in an antiseptic liquid (3) for the tip (4) and the membrane (5) of the stethoscope which it both contains. and one of the faces of which, opposite that of the opening, is provided with an orifice (6) having a shape corresponding to that of the handle of the stethoscope (7) along which the casing is raised in the direction indicated in ( 8) before auscultation during which it is fixed to this handle at this height thanks to the opening clip and

fermeture (9) dont la forme en " V " assure une fixation sur le tuyau du stéthoscope sans le serrer ni le plier au point de réduire ou d'altérer la closure (9), the "V" shape of which secures the stethoscope tube without tightening or bending it to the point of reducing or altering the
propagation des sons.propagation of sounds.
Le dispositif garantit une asepsie permanente de la (ou des) membrane(s) fixée(s) à l'embout du stéthoscope et ce, sans interventions actives, mais par une asepsie passive pendant la période o le stéthoscope n'est pas utilisé car la boîte reste alors en permanence fermée sur l'embout, mousse contre membrane. Il garantit une asepsie maximale dans la mesure o une fois l'examen terminé, il suffit à l'utilisateur de fermer la boîte sur l'embout, qui se trouve immédiatement protégé par le contact avec la solution antiseptique, si bien que le stéthoscope ne peut plus être un vecteur d'infection nosocomiale car la membrane est, dès le contact terminé avec la peau du patient, enfermée dans la boîte antiseptique. Il garantit également, du fait de sa fermeture permanente mousse contre membrane, une protection physique contre les chocs de cette membrane de stéthoscope dont on sait qu'elle est très fragile. Il prémunit également des risques d'oubli d'asepsie avant chaque auscultation et offre une commodité d'emploi inconnue des procédés utilisés antérieurement, car lorsque l'utilisateur veut se servir de son outil, il lui faut et lui suffit d'ouvrir la boîte en poussant le clip en " V ", de remonter la boîte ouverte le long du tuyau et, à hauteur d'accrochage, de pousser le " V " pour qu'elle ne tombe pas. Il contribue enfin à réduire les risques de vols, de perte ou de dégradation des unités d'asepsie qu'il faut utiliser aujourd'hui, car l'unité d'asepsie représentée par le dispositif est ici conservée sur le stéthoscope de The device guarantees permanent asepsis of the membrane (s) attached to the tip of the stethoscope, without active interventions, but with passive asepsis during the period when the stethoscope is not used because the box then remains permanently closed on the nozzle, foam against membrane. It guarantees maximum asepsis since once the examination is complete, the user just has to close the box on the tip, which is immediately protected by contact with the antiseptic solution, so that the stethoscope does not can no longer be a vector of nosocomial infection because the membrane is, as soon as contact with the patient's skin is completed, enclosed in the antiseptic box. It also guarantees, due to its permanent foam against membrane closure, physical protection against impact from this stethoscope membrane which is known to be very fragile. It also protects against the risk of forgetting asepsis before each auscultation and offers a convenience of use unknown to the procedures used previously, because when the user wants to use his tool, he needs and he just has to open the box by pushing the "V" clip, reassemble the open box along the pipe and, at hooking height, push the "V" so that it does not fall. Finally, it helps to reduce the risk of theft, loss or deterioration of the asepsis units that must be used today, because the asepsis unit represented by the device is here kept on the stethoscope.

Selon une variante non illustrée, le boîtier peut être de forme According to a variant not illustrated, the housing can be of shape
cylindrique adaptée à l'embout du stéthoscope. cylindrical adapted to the tip of the stethoscope.
A titre d'exemple non limitatif, le boîtier aura des dimensions de l'ordre de 5 à 10 cm pour la largeur et la longueur et de 2 à 5 cm pour la hauteur. Le dispositif selon l'invention est destiné à l'industrie du matériel By way of nonlimiting example, the box will have dimensions of the order of 5 to 10 cm for the width and the length and from 2 to 5 cm for the height. The device according to the invention is intended for the hardware industry
