  FIG. 1 shows an example of the surgical instrument storage bag of the present invention.

  The surgical instrument storage bag of the present invention is used by a practitioner wrapped around a trunk in a surgical operation. As shown in FIG. 1, a storage bag 100 of the present invention has a bag-like main body 20 having a back surface portion 21 that comes into contact with the body of a practitioner and an opening 23 that opens upward, and the bag-like main body 20. And a waist belt 80 attached to the upper end of the belt.

  The bag-like main body 20 has a bag-like form having an opening 23 having an upper opening. The lower part is closed and preferably has a flat bottom 24. The size of the bag-shaped main body 20 is not particularly limited, but the length of the opening 23 (the length of the upper periphery of the bag-shaped main body 20) is, for example, 50 cm to 80 cm, preferably 55 cm to 70 cm, and the height is For example, the length is 20 cm to 50 cm, preferably 35 cm to 45 cm, and the lower peripheral length (bottom length) is, for example, 40 cm to 60 cm, preferably 45 cm to 55 cm.

  The bag-shaped main body 20 is preferably made of a flexible material such as a non-woven fabric or a fabric such as a woven fabric. Since the storage bag of the present invention is used in an operating room, it is preferable that the bag-shaped main body 20 is made of a material with reduced fuzz. Furthermore, it is preferable that the material which comprises the bag-shaped main body 20 is comprised by what the inner material has heat resistance. Some surgical instruments are heated at the tip of the instrument during treatment. This is because by storing such a surgical instrument, scorching and melting of the bag-shaped main body 20 does not occur. The material constituting the bag-shaped main body 20 may be configured by laminating two or more kinds of materials and drawing out these properties. Furthermore, in this invention, it is preferable that the material which comprises the bag-shaped main body 20 is comprised with what has X-ray permeability. The number of surgical instruments (for example, needles) during surgery is strictly controlled during surgery to prevent accidents caused by misplacement in the patient's body. However, even if the numbers do not match and the needle is accommodated in the accommodation bag of the present invention, it is possible to easily confirm the presence or absence of the needle through X-ray imaging by having such X-ray permeability. Is possible.

  An example of the material constituting the bag-shaped main body 20 will be described. FIG. 2 is a schematic explanatory view showing an example of a laminated structure of the peripheral surface of the bag-shaped main body constituting the surgical instrument housing bag of the present invention, and is in the thickness direction of the bag-shaped main body in which two kinds of materials are stacked. It is a figure which shows a cross section.

  The bag-shaped main body 20 shown in FIG. 2 includes an outer layer 71 having water resistance and an inner layer 72 having heat resistance. The material constituting the outer layer 71 is not necessarily limited, and examples thereof include polypropylene nonwoven fabrics; rayon nonwoven fabrics; cotton nonwoven fabrics; and blended nonwoven fabrics composed of chemical fibers or natural fibers such as polypropylene, rayon, and cotton. . The material constituting these outer layers 71 may also be X-ray transmissive. Although it does not necessarily limit as a material which comprises the inner side layer 72, For example, a polyethylene terephthalate nonwoven fabric and an aramid nonwoven fabric are mentioned. The material making up these inner layers 72 may also be X-ray transmissive. In FIG. 2, the bag-shaped main body 20 is configured by such a two-layer laminate, but the present invention is not necessarily limited to such a form. For example, the bag-shaped main body 20 includes the outer layer 71 and the inner layer 72. Another layer (for example, non-woven fabric) serving as an interlining may be provided therebetween. By arranging such an interlining, the form of the bag-like main body 20 is easily held.

  Referring to FIG. 1 again, the bag-shaped main body 20 can accommodate various surgical instruments (for example, a long instrument, an instrument having a heating means attached to the tip). Examples of surgical instruments that can be accommodated include, but are not necessarily limited to, normal or long tweezers; scissors; forceps for suction or cleaning; energy devices such as electric scalpels; and endoscopes (endoscopy) Mirror scope); In addition, in the bag-like main body 20, the opening 23 facilitates accommodation and removal of the surgical instrument, and the purpose is to increase the visibility inside the bag-like main body 20, that is, the gauze used during the operation is mistakenly bag-like. In order to make it easy to check whether or not it is in the main body 20, it is preferable that the open state is always maintained.

  In the storage bag of the present invention, the state in which the opening 23 is opened can be performed using any means. In the present invention, for example, as shown in FIG. 3, between the outer layer 71 and the inner layer 72 constituting the opening 23, the opening 23 has substantially the same size as that of the opening 23. The elastic member 30 may be included. Examples of the material constituting the elastic member 30 are not particularly limited. For example, plastics such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and silicone; rubbers such as natural rubber and synthetic rubber; metals such as aluminum and brass; And a wire made of an elastic material.

  In the storage bag of the present invention, the shape of the opening 23 is not particularly limited as long as it is open upward and is configured so that the practitioner can easily see the inside. In addition, in the storage bag 100 shown in FIG. 1, the opening part 23 is shape | molded so that it may become high at the back part 21 side, and may become low at the front part 22 side. This is more preferable in that not only the surgical instrument held in the bag-shaped main body 20 can be easily taken out, but also the assistant can easily see the inside of the bag-shaped main body.

  In the storage bag 100 of the present invention, the bag-shaped main body 20 may include a flat bottom 24 so that the inside of the bag-shaped main body 20 can be easily seen. Since the bag-shaped main body 20 has the form of the flat bottom 24, the practitioner can always look over the inside of the bag-shaped main body 20 at a glance over a wide range from the opening 23 of the bag-shaped main body 20. Thereby, not only is it easy to find the target instrument from the stored surgical instrument, but also a case where gauze or the like used during the operation accidentally enters the bag-shaped main body 20 is easily detected.

  FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the surgical instrument storage bag of the present invention shown in FIG. FIG. 5 is a plan view of the surgical instrument storage bag of the present invention shown in FIG.

  As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, a partition 40 is provided inside the bag-shaped main body 20. The inside of the bag-shaped main body 20 is divided by a partition 40, and is configured so that a practitioner can accommodate a surgical instrument in accordance with the purpose in each of the divided sections.

  The structure of the partition 40 is not particularly limited as long as one surgical instrument can be held in each section. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, it is preferable that only the upper part of the bag-shaped main body 20 is divided and the lower part is released. If it does in this way, when a practitioner observes the inside of the bag-shaped main body 20, it will become visible at a glance to the bottom part of the bag-shaped main body 20, without the partition part 40 interrupting | blocking a visual field. In one embodiment of the present invention, it is preferable that the partition portion 40 is provided so that the lowermost portion of the partition portion 40 is positioned at 50% or more of the height from the bottom of the bag-shaped main body 20. More preferably, it is provided at a position of 60% or more. Moreover, in order to make it easy to accommodate a surgical instrument, the partition part 40 is provided so that the uppermost part of the partition part 40 is disposed at a position 2 cm to 10 cm below the edge of the opening 23, for example. More preferably.

  In the storage bag of the present invention, the shape of the partition is not particularly limited. For example, in one embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 4, the opening 40 is configured to be high on the back surface 21 side and low on the front surface 22 side, and the partition 40 is also high on the back surface portion 21 side. Although it is set as the low parallelogram at the front part 22 side, you may have other arbitrary shapes (for example, a rectangle and trapezoid).

  In the storage bag of the present invention, the extending direction of the partition 40 is not particularly limited. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the partitions 40 are arranged so as to be perpendicular to the waist belt 80, so that the sections partitioned by the partition 40 are along the length direction of the waist belt 80. It will be in an aligned state. With such an arrangement, when the storage bag of the present invention is mounted on the body of the practitioner, the surgical instruments can be held side by side along the body surface of the practitioner, and the necessary surgical instruments are selected during the operation. Is even easier. The number of partitions 40 is not particularly limited, and any number can be set by those skilled in the art. In the storage bag of the present invention, any number of partitioning portions can be selected from 1 to 5, for example.

  Although the material which comprises the partition part 40 is not specifically limited, Considering that the used surgical instrument contacts, for example, the material which comprises the said bag-shaped main body 20, especially the material which has heat resistance, for example, the said inner side The layer 72 is preferably made of the same material.

  FIG. 6 is a schematic explanatory view showing an example of a loop-shaped locking portion constituting the surgical instrument storage bag of the present invention.

  In the storage bag of the present invention, a loop-shaped locking portion 50 for locking a surgical instrument as shown in FIG. 6 is provided in the bag-shaped main body 20 instead of the partitioning portion 40 or together with the partitioning portion 40. It may be done. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the loop-shaped locking part 50 has a structure in which a part of a belt-like member attached to the upper side on the back side 21 side of the bag-like main body 20 protrudes in a loop shape, By inserting the surgical instrument inside the loop, the surgical instrument can be locked in the bag-shaped main body 20. If it does in this way, it will become easy to visually recognize what surgical instrument was locked from the outside, and the surgical instrument in the bag-shaped main body 20 accommodated when the practitioner moves will collide with each other and be damaged. Such dangers can be avoided.

  Any shape and size of the loop-shaped locking portion 50 can be selected by those skilled in the art depending on the size of the surgical instrument to be accommodated. In one embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 6, for example, both end portions in the width direction of the belt-like member 51 having a length of 3 cm to 3.5 cm and a width of 1 cm to 3 cm are sewn to the inner layer of the bag-like body. Thereby, the loop-shaped latching | locking part 50 is fixed. A plurality of such loop-shaped locking portions 50 can be fixed with an interval of, for example, 1.5 cm to 2 cm.

  In addition, when using the partition part 40 and the loop-shaped latching | locking part 50 together, although the loop-shaped latching | locking part 50 is normally provided in the division divided by the partition part 40, surgical instruments of various sizes are provided. Two or more loop-shaped locking portions 50 having different sizes may be provided in one section.

  Although the material which comprises the loop-shaped latching | locking part 50 is not specifically limited, Considering that the used surgical instrument contacts, for example, it is the same as that of the material which comprises the said bag-shaped main body 20, especially the said inner layer 72, for example. It is preferable that it is made of a material.

  Referring to FIG. 1 again, in the storage bag 100 of the present invention, the waist belt 80 is attached to the upper end on the back side of the bag-shaped main body 20 by, for example, sewing or pasting via an adhesive. In addition, the dashed-dotted line provided on the waist belt 80 shown in FIG. The waist belt 80 is a band-shaped body made of a flexible material. For example, the waist belt 80 may be attached to the upper side of the back side of the bag-shaped main body 20 as one band-shaped body, or may be separated into two bands. May be attached above the back side of the bag-shaped main body 20 with a gap in the center as necessary. When the waist belt 80 is formed of, for example, a single belt-like body, the size is, for example, a length of 150 cm to 230 cm and a width of 3 cm to 6 cm. When the strip | belt shaped object isolate | separated into 2 is employ | adopted, the magnitude | size of the said strip | belt shaped object is 70 cm-220 cm in length and 3 cm-6 cm in width, for example.

  Although the material which comprises the waist belt 80 is not specifically limited, For example, it is comprised with the material which comprises the said bag-shaped main body 20, especially the material which has water resistance, for example, the material similar to the said outer layer 71, for example. preferable.

  In the surgical instrument storage bag of the present invention, the entire bag is preliminarily dried, sterilized with high pressure steam, sterilized with radiation, sterilized with boiling, gas sterilized (eg, EOG (oxidation)) before use. Ethylene gas) sterilization, formalin gas sterilization, glutaral hydrogen peroxide gas plasma sterilization) and electron beam sterilization (ie, surgical sterilization treatment) are preferably performed. More preferably, EOG sterilization is performed as gas sterilization. The sterilization conditions employed in such a surgical sterilization process are not necessarily limited, and arbitrary conditions are set by those skilled in the art. Furthermore, the surgical instrument storage bag of the present invention is designed for disposable use in order to maintain a high sterilization state. For this reason, after use, it is appropriately discarded for each operation.

  The sterilized surgical instrument storage bag can be stored, for example, as a storage bag package that is packaged with a packaging material and maintains sterility until immediately before use. FIG. 7 is a view schematically showing the surgical instrument storage bag package 110 of the present invention, and is a material (packaging material) that can maintain the sterility of the surgical instrument storage bag 102 that has been subjected to surgical sterilization processing. It is a figure which shows an example which arrange | positions in 104 and comprises the said package. That is, the storage bag package 110 of the present invention is configured by packaging and sealing the surgical instrument storage bag 102 that has been subjected to the above-described surgical sterilization treatment with a material 104 that can maintain sterility as a packaging material. .

  Examples of materials (packaging materials) that can maintain sterility are not particularly limited, but films or sheets made of plastic such as polyethylene and polypropylene, or laminated films of these plastics and metal foils such as aluminum foil. Or a sheet | seat is mentioned. The thickness of the packaging material is not particularly limited, and an appropriate thickness can be selected by those skilled in the art.

  The size of the packaging material or the containing bag package obtained using the packaging material is also not particularly limited. The sterilized surgical instrument storage bag folded up to an appropriate size may be wrapped and sealed with a packaging material.

  In the storage bag package 110 of the present invention, for example, as shown in FIG. 7, a surgical instrument storage bag 102 that has been subjected to surgical sterilization processing is disposed in a packaging material 104 that has been processed into a bag shape in advance, It can be produced by sealing the opening by means known in the art (for example, heat sealing or adhesive) while maintaining sterility.

  The storage bag package of the present invention can be easily stored and transported until immediately before use in surgery while maintaining the sterility of the surgical instrument storage bag disposed therein.

  FIG. 8 is an explanatory view showing an example of a usage mode of the surgical instrument storage bag of the present invention.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the storage bag 100 of the present invention is attached to the practitioner by the practitioner winding the waist belt 80 around his / her waist and tying it. The storage bag 100 of the present invention is handed over to the practitioner in a sterilized state, and the practitioner needs to wear the storage bag with care so as to maintain this sterilized state. A method for attaching the containing bag 100 of the present invention while maintaining the sterilized state is not particularly limited. As a specific method, for example, one end side of the waist belt 80 attached to the bag-like main body 20 is first sterilized. The practitioner should be careful not to come into contact with non-sterile instruments, etc., and then the assistant should have a paper holder 82 (described later) attached near the other end so that it will not come into contact with non-sterile instruments. While moving to the back of the practitioner, finally, the practitioner passes one end side of the waist belt 80 to the assistant, and the assistant ties one end side and the other end side of the waist belt 80 on the back side of the practitioner. .

  As described above, when mounting the storage bag 100 of the present invention, care must be taken to maintain a sterilized state. In the case of the storage bag 100 of the present invention, the waist belt 80 is the floor of the operating room. There is a risk that the sterilized state may be lost due to dripping. As a method for preventing this, a holding mechanism for holding the waist belt 80 may be provided in the bag-like main body 20.

  As described above, the surgical instrument storage bag of the present invention must be sufficiently sterilized until it is used, but has a relatively long waist belt as compared with the size of the bag-like body 20. Since it has 80, it is preferable that the waist belt 80 is folded compactly from manufacture to use. Moreover, it is preferable that this folding is performed in such a manner as to avoid the above-described obstacles when the practitioner is worn.

  FIG. 9 is a schematic explanatory view showing an example of a folding manner of the waist belt constituting the surgical instrument storage bag of the present invention.

  In the example shown in FIG. 9, the central portions of the waist belt 80 provided on both sides of the bag-shaped main body 20 are accommodated in the bag-shaped main body 20, and the distal end side 81 of the waist belt 80 is respectively in the bag-shaped main body 80. The waist belt 80 is folded by the state where it is taken out of the belt. Note that at least one of the two waist belts 80 has a paper holder 82 for assisting the practitioner so that the operator can hand the waist belt to the assistant while the waist belt 80 is maintained in a sterilized state. (For example, a paper tag) may be provided.

  FIG. 10 is a schematic explanatory view showing another example of the folding manner of the waist belt constituting the surgical instrument storage bag of the present invention.

  As shown in FIGS. 10 (a) and 10 (b), in the storage bag of the present invention, in the state before use, the waist belt 80 is zigzag-shaped, that is, folded repeatedly by alternately repeating mountain folds and valley folds. The waist belt 80 folded between the female side 61 and the male side 62 of the hook-and-loop fastener 60 attached to 20 may be held so as to be sandwiched. In this way, the folded waist belt 80 is stretched little by little from the front end side 81 just by pulling the front end side 81 of the waist belt 80 that protrudes from the hook-and-loop fastener 60, and thus is prevented from being released at once over the entire length. can do. Thereby, the danger that the waist belt 80 hangs down from the storage bag can be avoided. In the example shown in FIG. 10 as well, although not particularly shown, a paper holder 82 may be provided at the distal end portion 81 of the waist belt 80 as in the example of FIG.

  As described above, in a mode in which the waist belt 80 is folded in a zigzag shape and is sandwiched and held by the hook-and-loop fastener 60, the waist belt 80 is a female with a hook-and-loop fastener at the tip side of the waist belt 80 as shown in FIG. It is preferably held so as to be in contact with the side 61. On the male side 62 of the hook-and-loop fastener, a hook-shaped protrusion is provided. When the front end side of the waist belt 80 is held in contact with the male side 62, when the practitioner pulls the front end side 81 of the waist belt 80, the waist fastener 60 is pulled while the waist belt 80 is scratched by the hook-shaped protrusion. It will be pulled out from between. For this reason, not only is the frictional force generated and the waist belt 80 difficult to unravel, but there is also a risk that the surface of the waist belt 80 becomes fluffy and dust is generated, and the operating room is unnecessarily contaminated by the dust. In this regard, in one embodiment of the present invention described above, since the loop-shaped protrusion is provided on the female side of the hook-and-loop fastener, when the waist belt 80 is held in contact with the female side, Even if the tip of the waist belt 80 is pulled, the frictional force thereof is weak, and the surface of the waist belt 80 is not scratched, so that generation of dust due to fluffing can be prevented.

  In one embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 10, the female side 61 of the hook-and-loop fastener is sewn to both sides of the bag-like main body 20, and one end of the male side 62 of the hook-and-loop fastener is on the back side of the female side 61. Although the hook-and-loop fastener 60 is provided by sewing, the present invention is not necessarily limited to such a form. For example, a surface is provided at the base end of the waist belt 80 itself (in the vicinity of the attachment portion to the bag-shaped main body 20). A fastener 60 may be attached.

  Furthermore, in the present invention, the function of the hook-and-loop fastener 60 is not limited to such fixing when the waist belt 80 is folded. For example, when a practitioner wears the surgical instrument storage bag of the present invention and performs an operation, the surgical instrument is accommodated by holding the surgical cable with the hook-and-loop fastener 60 in accommodating the surgical instrument to which the electrical cable is connected. The movement in the bag-like main body 20 is further restricted. Thus, the practitioner can concentrate on the operation without paying attention to the state of accommodation of the surgical instrument.
