Description

A MOBILE CAUTERY
Technical Field
The invention relates to a mobile cautery developed for use in sectors such as medical, defense industry, veterinary and medicine.
Prior Art
Cauterization is to stop bleeding by burning. The cautery is a device used for cutting and coagulation processes by burning the tissue. In the state of the art, there are 5 types of cautery: heat cautery, electro cautery, plasma cautery, ultrasonic cautery and argon cautery. Electrocautery devices perform thermal cauterization using electrical energy (alternative or direct current). An electrocautery device can create a temperature of 100-1200°C. The cautery pens have thin, thick, long, short, loop-shaped tips and they can be changed. There are two main types of electrocautery: unipolar (monopolar) and bipolar. The soldering iron of the battery-operated heat cautery used in another state of the art offers insufficient treatment opportunity.
Since the electrocauteries used in the current technique are quite large and do not have battery systems, they cannot be used in the military field.
On the other hand, not all cautery listed above can be used with long-life batteries in order to provide adequate intervention on-site. In other words, there are no cautery which offers sufficient working time and offers mobile cauterization intervention on-site and in a short time to the bleeding wound, for example, in the first aid need of soldiers, security forces, law enforcement officers or any living thing which may suffer from injury.
Therefore, it is necessary to develop new devices in order to eliminate the said disadvantages listed in the state of the art.
Summary of the Invention
The object of the invention is to produce a mobile cautery developed for use in sectors such as medical, defense industry, veterinary and medicine. The invention is a device which offers mobile cauterization intervention to the bleeding wound in a short time on-site in the first aid need of soldiers, security forces, law enforcement officers or any living thing which may suffer from injury and exhibits sufficient working time due to the efficiency of the battery it has.
The most important feature which distinguishes the device of the present invention from other cauteries is that it can start mobile intervention during injury, thanks to its being charged. Since the device is compact and single-piece in design, it can be carried easily and can also work without being plugged in. The fact that similar electrocauteries are not mobile causes a delay in the intervention of our security forces, who are injured in the field. Early cautery intervention prevents blood loss, saves the patient's life and has the potential to minimize gangrene-related arm, foot, etc. losses.
The mobile cautery of the present invention is a device with both bipolar and unipolar (monopolar) outputs, as in industrial devices. Thus, the user can choose the desired output. Thus, the device can perform cutting and coagulation process etc.
The most important feature which distinguishes the mobile cautery of the present invention from the five types of cautery listed in the state of the art is that it is rechargeable, mobile and can provide its energy needs from its battery. The mobile cautery of the present invention does not need any mains power line for surgical cauterization. Thus, it can be used easily in a mobile way. The dimensions of the device are also quite suitable for being mobile, that is, it is portable.

Detailed Description of the Invention
The mobile cautery (1) of the present invention comprises at least one charging connector (1.1) to be charged via sources such as phone adapters, solar panels etc., at least one power switch (1.2) which turns the power on and off, at least one first monopolar connector (1.3) to which at least one cut cautery pen tip is connected, at least one second monopolar connector (1.4) to which at least one coagulation cautery pen tip is connected, at least one cautery plate connector (1.5) to which at least one cautery plate is connected, at least one bipolar connector (1.6) to which at least one bipolar electrode is connected, at least one button (1.7) by which mode selection is performed during use, at least one pot (1.8) by which power selection is performed during use, at least one display (1.9) which is the interface of the device (1), at least one driver circuit (1.10), at least one battery (1.11) which provides energy to the device (1), at least one battery management system (1.12) which fast-charges the said battery (1.11) with balanced or alternative methods, at least one DC/DC converter (1.13) connected to said battery management system (1.12) with the desired voltage via buck/boost or alternative method. In the device (1) of the present invention, mode selection and/or power selection can be performed by using the button (1.7) and/or the pot (1.8). With the power selection, intermittent, pulsed and sinusoidal pulses can be given to the tissue at the desired intensity.
The mobile cautery (1) (or electrocautery) performs surgical procedures such as cutting and coagulation by passing electric current through the patient's body under the control of a doctor at predetermined energy and frequency values, preferably at frequencies of 300kHz- 450kHz.
The invention is designed to be mobile to provide immediate intervention in any operation, war and various field injuries. It has a system which minimizes the bleeding of the wound. Unlike the current technique, the most important feature of the device (1) is that it provides the energy required for surgical cauterization from the battery (1.11) it contains. Said battery (1.11) is made of Li-ion, Lipo, NiCd, NiMH, NiZn etc. and should not be considered to be limited to these in practice. A phone charging adapter or equivalents can be used to charge the invention from the charging connector (1.1).
Thanks to the unipolar and bipolar connectors on the mobile cautery (1), it ensures the most efficient use of the cautery probe according to the injury situation and procedure. Bipolar and/or monopolar outputs can be used according to the choice of the user (or doctor or physician).
All industrial cautery modes required for cutting, burning etc. procedures are available in the device (1) of the present invention.
The operating mode of the mobile cautery (1) is as follows: During use, the product is turned on/off by using the power switch (1.2) (i.e. on-off switch). Probes with monopolar or bipolar outputs are attached to the first monopolar connector (1.3) and/or to the second monopolar connector (1.4) and/or to the bipolar connector (1.6). The desired operating mode is selected and the power level is adjusted.
Thus, the device (1) is ready for intervention in a few seconds. The device (1) operates at high frequency and high voltage. If there are combustible and flammable materials in the environment during operation, it should be protected from sparks which may occur during application. When flammable liquids are used, before using the mobile cautery (1), sufficient time must be waited for them to evaporate completely and the surrounding materials must be prevented from absorbing these liquids. In addition, it should be noted that oxygen- impregnated gauze and cotton will easily ignite with sparks from the mobile cautery (1).
Industrial Applicability of the Invention
The invention is a mobile cautery (1) developed especially for use in sectors such as medical, defense industry, veterinary and medicine, and is industrially applicable.
The invention is not limited to the above-mentioned exemplary embodiments, and one skilled in the art can easily come up with different embodiments of the invention. These should be considered within the scope of the protection sought by the claims of the invention.
