Description
DOMAINE DE L’INVENTIONFIELD OF THE INVENTION
La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif de maintien de l’espace péri urétral féminin à l’effort.The present invention relates to a device for maintaining the female peri-urethral space under stress.
ETAT DE LA TECHNIQUESTATE OF THE ART
L’incontinence urinaire d’effort est un désordre fréquent et particulièrement invalidant de la femme dont les causes sont jusqu’à très récemment restées obscures et dont les remèdes sont trop souvent non satisfaisants.Stress urinary incontinence is a frequent and particularly debilitating disorder in women, the causes of which have until very recently remained obscure and the remedies of which are too often unsatisfactory.
Une approche anatomique récente est mentionnée en particulier dans le document US 14924200 A qui décrit un procédé de modélisation de la direction des pressions abdominales incidentes vers la cavité pelvienne féminine et de la direction des pressions réfléchies dans l’espace pelvien.A recent anatomical approach is mentioned in particular in US 14924200 A which describes a method of modeling the direction of incident abdominal pressures towards the female pelvic cavity and the direction of reflected pressures in the pelvic space.
Cette approche constitue une modification du paradigme selon lequel le petit bassin n’est soumis à l’effort que par des forces dirigées verticalement vers le «plancher pelvien».This approach constitutes a modification of the paradigm according to which the lesser pelvis is subjected to effort only by forces directed vertically towards the “pelvic floor”.
Un nouveau paradigme suppose que le petit bassin s’analyse sous la forme physique d’un paraboloïde: les vecteurs résultants sont réfléchis par le «plan du paraboloïde», la direction de ces forces étant la résultante des forces de frottement viscoélastiques locales qui entrainent des déformations quasi statiques.A new paradigm assumes that the small pelvis is analyzed in the physical form of a paraboloid: the resulting vectors are reflected by the "plane of the paraboloid", the direction of these forces being the resultant of the local viscoelastic frictional forces which cause quasi-static deformations.
Ces petits glissements obéissent aux lois de la viscoélasticité et ont pour effet d’accentuer la plicature en zigzag des organes du petit bassin.These small shifts obey the laws of viscoelasticity and have the effect of accentuating the zigzag kinking of the organs of the small pelvis.
Le rectum se plie et s’écrase – ce qui maintient (idéalement) les matières et les gaz au niveau de la partie basse du colon.The rectum bends and collapses – which (ideally) keeps matter and gas at the level of the lower part of the colon.
Le vagin n’est pas rectiligne, et sa plicature empêche l’utérus de descendre: l’urètre se plicature lui aussi (angle uretro vésical).The vagina is not straight, and its kinking prevents the uterus from descending: the urethra also kinks (uretrovesical angle).
L’urètre et la vessie sont mobiles.The urethra and bladder are mobile.
L’étude échographique lors des efforts de poussée a montré que dans un quart des cas environ, on retrouve une «vésicalisation» de l’urètre: sa partie haute se déforme en entonnoir.The ultrasound study during pushing efforts has shown that in about a quarter of cases, there is a "vesicalization" of the urethra: its upper part is deformed into a funnel.
Si la mobilité est trop accentuée, la longueur urétrale restante sous cet entonnoir est trop faible et il se produira des fuites urinaires.If the mobility is too accentuated, the remaining urethral length under this funnel is too small and urinary leakage will occur.
Il a pu être constaté que l’échographie réalisée avec une sonde rigide et plate appliquée fermement contre le périnée empêche l’effet de vésicalisation (ouverture du canal de l’urètre proche de la vessie et raccourcissement de sa partie fermée).It was found that ultrasound performed with a rigid, flat probe applied firmly against the perineum prevents the effect of vesicalization (opening of the urethral canal close to the bladder and shortening of its closed part).
Lorsque la sonde plate et rigide est appliquée sur le périnée lors de l’effort, les parois de l’uretère restent accolées et il n’y a plus d’incontinence lors de la poussée abdominale.When the flat, rigid probe is applied to the perineum during exercise, the walls of the ureter remain close together and there is no longer any incontinence during abdominal thrust.
BUT DE L’INVENTIONPURPOSE OF THE INVENTION
L’invention propose d’utiliser, lors de l’effort, un support souple avec un contre appui rigide.The invention proposes to use, during the effort, a flexible support with a rigid counter support.
EXPOSE ET AVANTAGES DE L’INVENTIONDESCRIPTION AND ADVANTAGES OF THE INVENTION
A cet effet, l’invention a pour objet un dispositif de maintien externe de l’urètre féminin à l’effort, caractérisé en ce qu’il est constitué par un coussin souple fixé à un contre-appui rigide et comportant une partie de support périnéal essentiellement en forme de V comprenant deux bras d’écartement antérieurs se prolongeant par une partie postérieure large, le contre-appui rigide étant relié à au moins une ceinture.To this end, the subject of the invention is a device for maintaining the female urethra externally under stress, characterized in that it consists of a flexible cushion fixed to a rigid counter-support and comprising a support part essentially V-shaped perineum comprising two anterior spreading arms extending by a wide posterior part, the rigid counter-support being connected to at least one belt.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l’invention, le contre-appui rigide comporte des anneaux d’accrochage permettant sa liaison à la ou aux ceinture(s), à savoir deux anneaux d’accrochage antérieurs respectivement situés au niveau de l’extrémité libre des bras d’écartement et un anneau d’accrochage postérieur situé au niveau de l’extrémité libre de la partie postérieure large du coussin souple.According to another characteristic of the invention, the rigid counter-support comprises hooking rings allowing its connection to the belt(s), namely two front hooking rings respectively located at the level of the free end of the spreader arm and a rear attachment ring located at the free end of the wide rear part of the flexible cushion.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l’invention, les anneaux d’accrochage antérieurs sont reliés à la ou aux ceinture(s) par l’intermédiaire de sangles réglables.According to another characteristic of the invention, the front attachment rings are connected to the belt(s) by means of adjustable straps.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l’invention, la zone médiane du coussin souple est convexe vers le haut.According to another characteristic of the invention, the middle zone of the flexible cushion is convex upwards.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l’invention, le coussin souple est réalisé en un matériau thermo-déformable biocompatible.According to another characteristic of the invention, the flexible cushion is made of a biocompatible thermo-deformable material.
Ce coussin souple peut avantageusement être constitué par un sac siliconé rempli d’un gel.This flexible cushion can advantageously consist of a silicone bag filled with a gel.
Le dispositif de maintien rectiligne, conforme à l’invention, est destiné à être porté aux moments de l’effort, en particulier par les sportives qui sont fréquemment victimes d’incontinences urinaires.The rectilinear support device, in accordance with the invention, is intended to be worn during periods of exertion, in particular by sportswomen who are frequently victims of urinary incontinence.
La partie de support périnéal vue de dessus a la forme d’un V avec une partie postérieure large et deux bras antérieurs.The perineal support part seen from above has a V-shape with a wide posterior part and two front arms.
Ses dimensions moyennes sont: longueur en principe de 5 centimètres et sa largeur est de 2 centimètres.Its average dimensions are: length in principle of 5 centimeters and its width is 2 centimeters.
La zone médiane est convexe vers le haut de façon à s’appliquer sur le périnée en avant de l’orifice vulvaire sur le bord inferieur du pubis, et jusqu’en arrière de l’anus vers le coccyx.The median zone is convex upwards so as to apply to the perineum in front of the vulvar orifice on the lower edge of the pubis, and to the rear of the anus towards the coccyx.
Le coussin souple est constitué par un sac siliconé ou biocompatible, rempli d’un gel thermo déformable, qui s’applique au mieux aux reliefs pelviens.The soft cushion consists of a silicone or biocompatible bag, filled with a thermo-deformable gel, which best applies to the pelvic reliefs.
Dans ce sac et à sa partie inférieure, une barrette rigide constituant le contre-appui, est reliée par trois anneaux à des ceintures.In this bag and at its lower part, a rigid bar constituting the counter-support, is connected by three rings to belts.
Ces ceintures sont des bandeaux suffisamment larges sur leur partie postérieure pour se placer sans douleur au-dessus du relief fessier au niveau des ailes iliaques.These belts are sufficiently wide bands on their posterior part to be placed without pain above the relief of the buttocks at the level of the iliac wings.
En avant des sangles reviennent au-dessus du pubis, zone dite de gainage des poussées abdominales.In front of the straps come back above the pubis, the so-called sheathing area for abdominal thrusts.
Deux sangles antérieures, vont des anneaux antérieurs du dispositif vers la partie latérale sus pubienne des sangles postérieures – ou elles s’accrochent par un moyen coulissant.Two anterior straps go from the anterior rings of the device to the suprapubic lateral part of the posterior straps – where they are attached by a sliding means.
Il y a un anneau de maintien postérieur coccygien et deux anneaux antérieurs pubiens, et le dispositif se sépare en deux bras dans la partie antérieure, afin d’éviter les frottements irritatifs au niveau du méat urétral.There is a posterior coccygeal support ring and two anterior pubic rings, and the device separates into two arms in the anterior part, in order to avoid irritative friction at the level of the urethral meatus.
Ce moyen permet d’obtenir un maintien confortable à l’ensemble.This means provides a comfortable fit to the whole.
Il est à noter que les dispositifs fixes actuels, ayant pour but de maintenir l’urètre en place lors des efforts sont des dispositif internes à placer dans le vagin au cours de l’effort; ces dispositifs sont intrusifs, et impossibles à mettre en place chez les trop jeunes filles; de surcroit ils sont peu efficaces.It should be noted that the current fixed devices, intended to keep the urethra in place during efforts, are internal devices to be placed in the vagina during exercise; these devices are intrusive, and impossible to implement in girls who are too young; moreover, they are not very efficient.
L’entrainement musculaire pelvien, est peu efficace dans ses modalités actuelles.Pelvic muscle training is not very effective in its current modalities.
