  • This invention relates generally to medical aspiration equipment, and to methods for preparing such equipment for proper surgical use. The invention will find particular application in uterine aspiration such asfor vacuum abortions or sampling of tissue for endometrial cancer detection.
  • the technique described in the Kerslake and Casey article is to aspirate the conceptus from the 'uterus using a tube which has a flexible connection to a source of suction.
  • a typical apparatus as described in the article includes a suction curette having an oval mouth at its end, or on one side, and an air hole at the other end to control the suction.
  • a rubber suction tubing connects the curette to a glass container which in turn is connected to a source of suction.
  • Aspiration of the uterine contents usually takes less than 2 minutes and the fetal material can readily be seen as it appears in the glass container.
  • the method employed may be very briefly reviewed. The perineum, vagina, and cervix are disinfected. The cervis is then drawn forward with atenaculum.
  • the direction of the cervical canal and the depths of the uterine cavity are determined with a uterine sound. It is a common practice to dilate the cervix to allow easy insertion of the suction curette. When dilation is required, preferably a local anesthesia is administered. General anesthesia is rarely used.
  • the suction curette of appropriate diameter and design is inserted carefully through the cervix into the uterus. The suction is then started. in a few seconds the suction reaches a working level which, according to the Kerslake and Casey article, is at a mean level of 18 inches of mercury (relative).
  • the suction curette is moved gently up and down over all aspects of the uterine cavity. The products of conception pass visibly into the glass container either whole or piecemeal.
  • the degree of suction can be controlled with some aspirators by putting a thumb over an airhole at the base of the curette as well as by using a pressure control device on the pump.
  • the uterus reacts by contracting and decreasing in volume. Aspiration usually takes less than a minute or two. his thought to be complete when the uterine wall fells smooth and no further remnants emerge.
  • a TYPI- CAL PRIOR ART APPARATUS used for uterine aspiration consists of a curette connected by a hose to a collection bottle which in turn is connected by a second hose to a vacuum source.
  • Uterine aspiration is not limited to abortions, but is a general technique with a further application in diagnostics.
  • the technique of aspiration curettage was recommended for routine use in collecting tissue for endometrial diagnosis and other diagnostic purposes.
  • the curette is of a small outside diameter, typically 3mm, welded to a plastic cap of a tubular chamber which in turn is connected to a suction pump.
  • the plastic chamber contains a perforated'plastic cylinder that serves as a filter and arrests mucosa] fragments which are to be laboratory tested for either polyps, endometrial atypia, or an adenocarcinoma.
  • the technique employed in the diagnostic aspiration curettage is similar to that employed for the abortions by vacuum curettage.
  • the vagina and portico are cleaned, typically with soap.
  • the portico is gripped with a tenacucoum forceps; a uterine sound is passed in the cervix and without further dilation the eurette is advanced into the fundus.
  • Suction is introduced and the curette is passed over the entire uterine walls; tissue and some blood is scraped from the uterine wall and aspirated by suction.
  • the tissue is trapped in the tubular chamber and a histopathological examination is subsequently done on the aspirated and trapped tissue.
  • a high vacuum is used, e.g., 28 to 30 inches of mercury, which is applied with full strength at the very beginning of the procedure.
  • this high vacuum it is possible to construct an aspiration system in which the collection bottle, source of vacuum, and handle for the. curette are all' one. This does away with a separate source of suction, whether that be an electric pump (which is commonly used in the United States), or a vacuum jar (as used in China). It might be noted that electric pumps are subject to failure due to electrical interuptions, or to accidental carry-over of fluids from the collection bottle --'with the very serious consequence that the procedure is interupted and has to be completed by sharp D & C or in extreme cases by a hysterectomy.
  • the system of the invention does away with the prior art hoses which connect the curette to the collection bottle and the collection bottle to the suction source. These hoses encumber the physician. Furthermore, if the curette is not provided with a handle and swivel, which are heavy, it is difficult to rotate the curette in the uterus. This feature is considered very desirable by many surgeons. In the present invention there are no encumbering hoses, and the surgeon may rotate the curette easilywithout heavy swivels or other attachments.
  • a high vacuum is induced in a transparent'bottle typically less than one-half liter in volume.
  • a cap with a valve is mounted on'this bottle and a cannulaor'curette rigidlyfits into a seat on the valve.
  • the cannula is introduced into the uterus, the valve is then opened and thefull vacuum rapidly sucks the products of conception from theinterior of the uterus.
  • the surgeon may grasp the bottle in one or both of his hands and enough to be conveniently held in a surgeons hand.
  • a further advantage of the system of the present invention is that the aspirated products may be easily observed by the physician because the collection bottle is attached directly to the cannula and is in this hand during the procedure.
  • the collection bottle In prior art abortion systems the collection bottle is remotely positioned.
  • the collection bottle When connected by a hose, the collection bottle in order to avoid being accidentally toppled over when the hose was pulled on is securely mounted onto a stable platform 1 which is usually some distance away and the physician has to look up and away from the patient and the point of operation to see the aspirated material.
  • the doctor applies his sense of touch to the collection bottle, and also concentrates visually on the collection bottle to observe the products of conception being removed.
  • a further advantage of the present invention is lack of dependence on the electric vacuum pump.
  • the pump In addition to mechanical failure, possible contamination, and electric power failure, the pump has the further drawback in that its noise is psychologically upsetting and stress-producing on the patient. It has been observed that when the'pump is turned on and running, the patient reacts with an undesirable tension, complicating the emotional, as well as the physical completion of the operation. The system of the present invention it will be noted is completely silent.
  • this embodiment of the invention has the further advantages of being compact in that it occupies but a small volume, and it is simple-to assemble, disassemble and clean as well as to operate.
  • the initial vacuum in the bottle of this system may be induced by an electric pump, or by any other mechanical means.
  • a preferred method according to the present invention of producing a very high vacuum, e.g., 28-30 inches of mercury in the collection bottle itself includes the steps of placing a small amount of water inside the bottle, heating the water so as to cause it to boil and fill the jar with saturated steam, thereby driving the entrapped air out of the bottle, then closing the valve on the bottlecap to trap the steam, and then cooling the steam and bottle.

  • the novel trap has the advantage of both a flexible trap, as well as a rigid trap. The advantages of the former are that it can be easily emptied so that the solid parts may be spread out in a pan to perform the fetal parts count.
  • the novel trap may be disconnected and set aside should the surgeon decide that he does not wish to use a trap.
  • the novel trap is particularly useful with the high vacuum available with the apparatus of this invention in that the solid and liquid parts are drawn into the collection bottle at a high velocity, thereby moving the solid parts into the bottom of the trap and away from the entrance to the collection bottle.
