Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for holding surgical instruments and for the manual control of the electrical supply thereto, particularly for use in minimally invasive surgical operations.
  • the present invention relates to a device of the type indicated above, comprising a body which acts as a grip and has:
  • the at least one terminal being releasably connectible to electrical terminals of complementary profile on the surgical instruments so as to connect them to the device.
  • the aforesaid terminal enables the device of the invention to be connected to several surgical instruments in succession, for example, scalpels, forceps, scissors, and the like, which do not therefore need their own devices for controlling the current supply, with clear economic advantages.
  • the means for selectively cutting off the supply are on the body enables the surgeon safely and at the desired moment to cut off or switch on the flow of electrical current to the surgical instrument which is held by the device at the time in question and is controlled by the hand holding the device.
  • the device of the invention also offers the further advantages of ensuring good manoeuvrability and of having a simple structure.
  • the aforesaid body of the device has a plurality of electrical terminals.
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of the device of the invention and of a surgical instrument, disconnected from one another
  • Figure 2 is a transparent, perspective view of the device of the invention.
  • a device 10 for holding surgical instruments and for the manual control of the electrical supply thereto has a body 12, preferably made of plastics material, acting as a grip.
  • the body 12 is L-shaped and is formed by a first elongate and flattened, substantially parallelepipedal element 14, from one end of which a second substantially parallelepipedal element 16 projects transversely.
  • the device 10 has electrical supply means comprising an electrical cable 18 which has a plug 20 at one end and the opposite end of which is connected to the end of the first elongate and flattened element 14 of the body 12 remote from the second element 16.
  • the cable 18 is connected electrically, by means of electrical circuits of known type, generally indicated 22 in Figure 2, to three electri'cal terminals 24a, 24b, 24c, positioned, respectively, on the face 26 of the second element 16 which faces inwardly of the body 12 and is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the first elongate and flattened element 14, and on the two faces 28a, 28b of the second element 16, which are perpendicular to the inwardly-facing face 26 and to the general plane of the first elongate and flattened element 14.
  • Each terminal 24a, 24b, 24c is formed by a metal bush surrounded externally by the plastics material which constitutes the body 12 of the device 10, and defining internally a cavity 30 which communicates with the exterior.
  • the cavity 30 can house a metal pin 32 which acts as an electrical terminal of a surgical instrument, for example,the scissors 34 shown in Figure 1, scalpels, forceps, or the like.
  • Means for selectively cutting off the electrical supply to the terminals 24a, 24b, 24c are also fitted on the body 12. These selective cut-off means comprise a pair of push-buttons 36a, 36b disposed on a face 38 of the first element 14 of the body 12 facing in the opposite direction to the second element 16.
  • the device 10 is connected to an electrical supply by means of the plug 20 and the surgical instrument to be used first, for example, the pair of scissors 34, is fitted in the cavity 30 of one of the terminals 24a, 24b or 24c by means of its pin 32.
  • the surgical instrument to be used first for example, the pair of scissors 34
  • the terminal is selected on the basis of the type of operation to be carried out, the surgeon's characteristics, for example, whether he is left- or right-handed, and the like.
  • the surgeon can manoeuvre the instrument 34 held thereby and, at the same time, can allow current to flow towards the instrument 34 by pressing the push-buttons 36a, 36b.
  • pressing of the push-button 36a puts the instrument 34 in the cutting condition whereas pressing of the push-button 36b puts the instrument 34 in the condition for causing the blood to coagulate.
