Definitions

  • the invention relates to a safety container for the removal of blades, needles and other disposable objects of the type used in surgery and the final recount thereof.
  • Suture needles and hypodermic needles which are defined as sharp risk instruments
  • a sterile cloth is laid where the various surgical instruments necessary for the operation are placed.
  • the containers currently on the market are basically “disarmers” for removing scalpel blades, absolutely inefficient for such a purpose, since they only serve to disarm the blade of the scalpel and because they also risk the percutaneous injury of the operators upon the detachment of the blade (not being provided with any protective shielding, as on the other hand the container has) and do not allow an efficient counting of the suture needles, not having any instrument for counting the gauze pads, for storing the blade covers and the needle covers, no support for positioning a possible hypodermic syringe, drainage needle, scalpels and other devices and also no container for the final disposal of scalpels, hypodermic syringes, and other possible devices.
  • the invention provides a protected disengagement channel in which to insert the handle and remove the blade in total safety and reliability.
  • a first object of the invention is to allow the storage and recount of a large number of disposable objects used in the operating theatre in a simple and reliable manner, minimizing the margins of counting error.
  • a further object is to obtain the simple and protected removal of the disposable blade from the scalpel handle, significantly reducing percutaneous occupational wounds.
  • the present invention is intended to provide a safety container for the removal, storage and final counting of cutting edges, sharp objects and other disposable objects which allows to overcome the drawbacks of the already known solutions.
  • a first advantage is the ease of use and reliability of the final count of all the disposable objects, whether cutting edges, sharp objects or other objects which can be used in surgery.
  • a second advantage is that the container object of the invention shows an efficiency and an extremely improved safety with respect to the known systems and also induces a better and safer “modus operandi” of the operators, to whom it allows to find all the aforementioned instruments positioned in an extremely intuitive system.
  • a further advantage is that the container allows to ergonomically position the devices in use and also, not secondary, to minimize the danger of percutaneous occupational wounds from cutting edges and points.
  • a further advantage is that the removal manoeuvre of the disposable blade of the scalpel is much simpler and above all protected with respect to the known systems.
  • a further advantage is that the container is low cost.
  • a further advantage is that it is possible to flexibly compose the container using one or more types of alternative shelves for storing the suture needles depending on the type of surgery and the number of needles to be safely stored.

  • figure 15 shows a detail of a preferred embodiment of the container closure.
  • a safety container for the removal, storage and final count of cutting edges, sharp objects and other disposable surgical material such as needle covers, hypodermic syringes, blade covers and gauze pads.
  • the container comprises a box 1 in a sterilizable material, preferably a plastic material, comprising a main compartment 2 and a lid 3 which is foldable with respect to the main compartment, for example by means of a hinged joint 32.
  • a sterilizable material preferably a plastic material
  • the compartment 2 can have on the support surface an adhesive layer 48, for example a double-sided adhesive tape, to allow the device to be fixed on the serving table during use.
  • an adhesive layer 48 for example a double-sided adhesive tape
  • the container is obtained by moulding transparent or coloured plastic in a single or multiple footprint, comprising the compartment 2, the lid 3 and the joint hinge 32.
  • the container further comprises fixing means 4, 5 for the stable closure of the main compartment with the lid, consisting for example of a tab 4 of the lid 3 which engages with a tooth 5 of the compartment 2.
  • the fixing means 4, 5 for the stable closure of the main compartment with the lid can be reopened in order to allow additional recounts after the closure of the container.
  • the fixing means comprise first reopenable pressure closing means 51 in order to allow additional recounts after the closure of the container, second irreversible pressure closing means 52 in order to prevent the accidental opening of the container, in which the second closing means are activatable by exerting a greater pressure with respect to the pressure necessary to activate the reversible closing means, so as to ensure that the irreversible closure occurs with a voluntary operation by the operator.
  • the first and second reversible and irreversible closing means comprise raised teeth 51, 52 of increasing height, capable of engaging with a corresponding slot 57 of the closing element 4.
  • the main compartment comprises a first plurality of well sections 8-12 separated by respective walls 33-36 to contain a corresponding number of different disposable objects to be removed and means for releasing disposable blades from scalpels and the containment thereof in one of said separate sections.
  • the lid 3 also comprises at least one section, preferably three sections 14-16 separated by respective walls 37-38, possibly provided with a retention bottom, for example adhesive, 17, 18 for containing and retaining needle covers, blade covers and gauze pads.
  • the bottom of the section will therefore be adhesive, while the bottom of a section of the compartment 2 intended for the containment of metal objects such as disposable blades and suture needles can be either magnetic or adhesive.
  • the well sections of the compartment 2 are deep, for example from 3 to 5 centimetres, to limit the risk of accidental operator contact with hazardous disposable objects stored in the sections, such as used cutting edges or sharp objects.
  • the sections of the lid 3, if included, can be less deep, for example 0.5 centimetres, because they are used for the storage and final recount of objects which are unable to cause percutaneous occupational wounds, such as gauze pads, needle covers and blade covers.
  • one of the sections of the lid 3 can also be used to house an explanatory prospectus for the use of the device.
  • the main compartment comprises one or more notches 21 , 30 arranged at the respective sections 8, 12 made for example by the front wall of the compartment 2 on the side of use (fig.1 ), or of the side walls (fig.10), shaped to engage with corresponding surgical instruments for example syringes, scalpels, trocars, cardiac catheters, drainage needles and other devices and facilitate the stable support thereof during use, for example a notch 21 shaped like a semicircle for the stable support of a syringe and a second notch 30 of quadrangular shape for the stable support of a scalpel.
  • a notch 21 shaped like a semicircle for the stable support of a syringe and a second notch 30 of quadrangular shape for the stable support of a scalpel.
  • the shelf 14 is provided with multiple, horizontally or vertically positioned, parallelepiped-shaped retention channels 50 which can be provided in the inner walls thereof with longitudinal reliefs or hooks for an improved, stable retention of gauze pads prior to use and final storage after use. Accordingly, in order to retain the pads, such a compartment can also lack double-sided adhesive.
  • Another variant relates to the storage of needle covers in the compartment 8, the same as the positioning of the hypodermic syringe.
  • the blade cover of the disposable scalpel is also stored in compartment 12, the same as the positioning of the disposable scalpel.
  • the steel scalpel can be positioned in compartment 12, which also has an additional positioning in compartment 10 by means of the notch 22.
  • the lid 3 can comprise tabs 6, 6’ of shape and size corresponding to said support notches 21 , 30 so as to reconstitute the continuity of the wall of the compartment 2 in the closing configuration.
  • the blade release system 20 comprises a slit 27 accessible from the outside of the compartment 2 for the insertion of a disposable blade in a closed release channel consisting of a first contrast wall 23 integral with the compartment 2 and arranged at a section 10 and a second contrast wall 24 integral with an element 26, possibly movable with respect to the compartment 2 and superimposable on the first wall 23 in an operating release position.
  • the movable element 26 has at least the visible upper wall 56 in transparent material to allow viewing the release manoeuvre by an operator and, in the embodiment of figures 1-8, comprises an elongated body articulated at one end 25 with respect to the compartment 2 to pass from a projecting position to the operating release position superimposed on the wall 23 and the section 10 and further comprising stable fixing means 29, 40 for fixing in said operating position.
  • the means 29, 40 can comprise a harpoon shape of the end 29 to be interlocked or coupled in a hole 40 integral with the compartment 2.
  • the mobility of the element 26 allows to produce the container by moulding in a single footprint with the element 26 projecting from the compartment 2 and then fold it into an operating position to create the closed release channel, whose upper wall (in the use position) acts as a barrier if during the detachment of the blade from the scalpel it can disperse outside the box or, even worse, injure the healthcare operator.
  • the contrast walls of the release means can be shaped in various manners with reference to figure 9a, preferably the slit 27 is provided with means for disengaging the blade comprising a first contact surface 24 placed on the movable part 26 and a second contact surface 23 placed on the container.
  • the scalpel blade including the handle
  • the inclination of the handle causes the reliefs 23 to flex the rear part of the blade, which during the extraction of the handle from the slit 27 goes in contrast in the wall 24a, disengages from the handle and falls into the section 10, as shown in figure 9c.
  • disposable devices are shown which can be safely removed (cutting edges and sharp objects), as well as other objects (needle cover, blade cover, gauze pads) and effectively prepared for the final recount, by virtue of the invention.
  • the needle covers of hypodermic syringes and the blade covers of disposable scalpels are stored in section 14 with possible adhesive.
  • the used gauze pads are stored in section 16 with possible adhesive.
  • the package leaflet with instructions for use is inserted, for example, in section 15, for example glued.

  • Used suture needles are stored in spaces 9 and 11 ; it should be noted that there are two spaces as such risk instruments are by far the most used in the operating theatre, so much so that in cardiac surgery tens and sometimes more than a hundred are used.
  • the shelves 43 have raised edges 45 and a relief 46 placed in the centre of the shelf to facilitate gripping, which must be carried out with surgical clamps.
  • the disposable blades of the scalpels are detached and any individual hypodermic needles are stored in section 10.
  • the bottom 41 of the portion of the section 10 below the release system means is inclined to facilitate the sliding of the blades in the section itself, making it more visible in the final recount.
  • Disposable scalpels, used disposable syringes including the needle, any trocars and other devices, such as cardiac catheters are positioned for the recount in compartment 13, separated from the remaining sections by a wall 39.
  • the tab 4 has been extended throughout the width of the compartment 2 in order to increase the support surface in an open configuration and to cover the notches 21 , 30 without the need to include the tabs 6, 6’;
  • the lid 3 comprises only the section 15 with the instructions for use and must not contain any objects.
  • the bottom of the section will therefore not be adhesive or magnetic.
