Further, the material, thickness, and configuration of tissue guard 100 is selected such that tissue guard 100 is configured to withstand cutting and puncturing by surgical knives, scalpels, pencils, and the like, thereby protecting surrounding tissue and/or access device 250 from being cut or punctured. Tissue guard 100 may additionally or alternatively be configured to inhibit transfer of thermal and/or electrical energy therethrough to protect surrounding tissue and/or access device 250 from thermal and/or electrical energy. [0037] Referring to FIGS.
- tissue guard 100 includes a tubular body 110, a collar 120 coupled to a proximal end portion 114 of tubular body 110, and an inlet 130 and an outlet 140 extending from the collar 120 and configured to couple to the vacuum source 15.
- Tubular body 110, collar 120, inlet 130, and outlet 140 may be monolithically formed as a single component, e.g., via injection molding, or may be distinct attached components.
- Tubular body 110 defines an open proximal end portion 114, an open distal end portion 116, and a passageway 118 extending between open proximal and distal end portions 114, 116, respectively. Passageway 118 is configured to receive one or more surgical instruments (not shown) therethrough.
- Proximal and distal end portions 114, 116 of tubular body 110 may each flare outwardly from an intermediate portion 122 of tubular body 110. More specifically, tubular body 110 may have an hourglass shape with a diameter of the open proximal and distal end portions 114, 116 being greater than a diameter of tubular body 110 at intermediate portion 122. In aspects, proximal end portion 114 of tubular body 110 may assume a funnel-shape and may extend at an angle from about 15 degrees to about 50 degrees, and in some aspects about 17 degrees, from a longitudinal axis “X” defined by passageway 118.
- Distal end portion 116 of tubular body 110 includes a plurality of segments 116a, 116b, 116c extending distally from intermediate portion 122.
- Each of segments 116a, 116b, 116c tapers (e.g., gradually narrow) in a distal direction, such that adjacent segments (e.g., segments 116a, 116b) define a cutout or gap 124 therebetween that increases in width in a distal direction.
- cutout 124 defined between adjacent segments 116a, 116b has a rounded proximal end portion 124a whereas a remaining distal end portion 124b of cutout 124 has a generally triangular shape.
- distal end portion 116 of tubular body 110 may be uninterrupted along its circumference, such that distal end portion 116 is without segments 116a, 116b, 116c or cutouts 124. Cutouts 124 facilitate flexion of distal end portion 116, e.g., to facilitate insertion into an opening in tissue and/or engagement within access device 250 (FIGS. 4 and 5).
- Each of segments 116a, 116b, 116c has an outer surface having a plurality of horizontally-extending ribs 126 configured to resist backing-out of tissue guard 100 from a surgical opening and/or access device 250 (FIGS. 4 and 5.)
- Collar 120 of tissue guard 100 has a ring-shape and defines an annular channel 128 extending circumferentially about passageway 118 of tubular body 110.
- Annular channel 128 has a circular transverse cross-sectional shape (FIG. 3) having a diameter “DI.”
- Collar 120 includes an outer annular half-section 120a and an inner annular half-section 120b integrally formed with one another and together defining annular channel 128.
- Outer annular half-section 120a extends directly from proximal end portion 114 of tubular body 110.
- Inner annular half-section 120b of collar 120 extends directly from outer annular halfsection 120a and into overlapping alignment with proximal end portion 114 of tubular body 110. Inner annular half-section 120b is spaced from proximal end portion 114 of tubular body 110. More specifically, inner annular half-section 120b has a bent inner edge 142 facing proximal end portion 114 of tubular body 110 to define a first annular gap “Gl” therebetween. First annular gap “Gl” extends circumferentially about passageway 118 and fluidly interconnects passageway 118 of tubular body 110 and annular channel 128 of collar 120.
- inner annular halfsection 120b may define a plurality of oval-shaped openings (not shown) circumferentially spaced from one another along collar 120.
- the openings are configured to establish fluid communication between passageway 118 and annular channel 128 and to reduce turbulence/noise.
- Collar 120 further includes a lip 144 extending radially inward from bent inner edge 142 of inner annular half-section 120b of collar 120.
- Lip 144 may extend perpendicularly relative to longitudinal axis “X” of passageway 118. In aspects, lip 144 may extend relative to longitudinal axis “X” at any suitable angle.
- Lip 144 extends circumferentially about passageway 118, thereby defining an outer perimeter of passageway 118.
- Lip 144 defines a circumferential inner edge 146 that is spaced (in a direction generally parallel with longitudinal axis “X” of passageway 118) from proximal end portion 114 of tubular body 110 to define a second annular gap “G2” therebetween.
- First annular gap “Gl” is sized to be less than diameter “DI” of annular channel 128 of collar 120 and second gap “G2.”
- first annular gap “Gl” less than second annular gap “G2” and diameter “DI,” the Venturi Effect dictates that tissue guard 100 establishes a pressure differential in first annular gap “Gl” upon application of suction through tissue guard 100, thereby making for a smoother and faster transition from passageway 118 to outlet 140 with minimal disruption of the flow of evacuated smoke.
- Collar 120 may further include a plurality of hooks 132 projecting outwardly and ultimately distally from outer annular half-section 120a of collar 120.
- Each of hooks 132 has a proximal end portion 132a defining an arcuate aperture 134 configured to receive a proximal rim 252 (FIGS. 3 and 4) of access device 250, and a distal end portion 132b having an inwardly- projecting claw 136 configured to engage an undersurface or overhang 262 of proximal rim 252 of access device 250.
- tissue guard 100 may be without hooks 132 and/or hooks 132 may be detachable from collar 120 for instances where tissue guard 100 is to be placed within a tissue opening without utilizing access device 250 (FIGS. 4 and 5).
- Inlet 130 and outlet 140 of tissue guard 100 define tubular configurations, are formed with outer annular half-section 120a of collar 120, and extend radially outward from collar 120 on opposing ends of collar 120.
- outlet 140 may extend proximally from collar 120 or may assume a helical configuration.
- Outlet 140 defines an inner channel 150 and has a first end portion 140a in fluid communication, e.g., via an aperture 148 defined through collar 120, with annular channel 128 of collar 120.
- Outlet 140 has a second end portion 140b configured to connect to an inlet 340 of a flow device (FIG. 6) and ultimately to tubing (not shown) of a vacuum source 15 to enable smoke to be evacuated from an internal surgical site through a fluid path “F” (FIG.
- a system 200 provided in accordance with the present disclosure includes tissue guard 100 and access device 250.
- Access device 250 may be configured as a tissue retractor, an access port, or other suitable access device configured for positioning within an opening in tissue, e.g., a surgical incision or a naturally-occurring orifice, to provide access therethrough into an internal surgical site.
- Access device 250 includes proximal rim 252 configured for positioning on an external side of the opening in tissue, a distal rim 254 configured for positioning on an internal side of the opening in tissue, and a body 256 extending between proximal and distal rims 252, 254, respectively.
- Body 256 is configured to extend through the opening in tissue and defines a passageway 258 extending longitudinally therethrough to permit access to an internal surgical site through the opening in tissue. At least a portion of body 256 of access device 250 may be flexible to facilitate insertion and positioning of access device 250 within the opening in tissue. In aspects, body 256 is formed from a flexible sleeve of material including one or more layers of material. Further, access device 250 may be selectively adjustable, e.g., by rolling proximal rim 254 distally about body 256, to retract tissue and/or secure access device 250 within the opening in tissue. Access device 250 further defines overhang 262 between proximal rim 254 and body 256.
- access device 250 is positioned within an opening in tissue such that distal rim 254 is disposed on an internal surface of tissue on the internal side of the opening in tissue, body 256 extends through the opening in tissue, and proximal rim 252 is disposed on an exterior surface of tissue on the external side of the opening in tissue.
- Access device 250 may be adjusted to conform access device 250 to a patient’s anatomy, retracting tissue and/or securing access device 250 within the opening in tissue.
- tissue guard 100 With access device 250 disposed within the opening in tissue, tissue guard 100 is inserted into passageway 258 and hooks 132 of tissue guard 100 are flexed or otherwise manipulated to permit proximal rim 252 to be received in aperture 134 of hooks 132 and claw 136 of hooks 132 to engage overhang 262 of proximal rim 252, thereby locking tissue guard 100 in engagement within access device 250.
- surgical instrumentation may be inserted through passageway 118 of tubular body 110 of tissue guard 100 into the internal surgical site to, for example, extract a tissue specimen therefrom.
- Tissue guard 100 protects tissue as well as access device 250 during the insertion, manipulation, use and withdrawal of any such surgical instrumentation.
- a ratio of the area of the first annular gap “Gl” to the area of the second annular gap “G2” to the cross-sectional area of the annular channel 128 may be about 1:2:4, and in some aspects, about 1:2.1:3.8.
- additional airflow may be provided through the tissue guard 100 via the incorporation of an in-line flow device 30, which provides a means of enhancing the overall reduction in smoke plume escaping the tissue guard 100.
- the flow device 30 optimizes positive and negative airflow to ensure that the maximum volume of smoke plume is captured and filtered out of the surgical setting.
- the flow device 30 uses the vacuum generated by the vacuum source 15 to power a spindle assembly 370 that provides positive airflow, while also allowing the vacuum to pass through the flow device 30 for removal of smoke plume at the operating site.
- the additional positive airflow generated by the flow device 30 is directed at the tissue guard 100 towards the suction points in the tissue guard 100, thereby limiting dissipation and escape of smoke plume.
- Flow device 30 includes a housing 320 with an inlet 340, a first outlet 345, and a second outlet 346 extending from the housing 320, and a spindle assembly 370 disposed within the housing 320.
- the inlet 340 of the flow device 30 is configured to operably couple to the outlet 140 of the tissue guard 100 (e.g., directly thereto or via an intermediate tube) and the first outlet 345 is configured to operably couple to the vacuum source 15 (FIG. 1) (e.g., directly thereto or via an intermediate tube).
- the second outlet 346 is configured to operably couple to the inlet 130 of the tissue guard 100 (e.g., directly thereto or via an intermediate tube).
- the housing 320 defines a first chamber 350 and a second chamber 360.
- the first chamber 350 is in fluid communication with both of the inlet 340 and the first outlet 345 such that airflow may pass from the inlet 340 into the first chamber 350, then from the first chamber 350 to the first outlet 345.
- the housing 320 also defines an opening 325 enabling ambient air to flow from the outside of the flow device 30 and into the second chamber 360.
- the spindle assembly 370 includes a post 375, which is aligned with a longitudinal axis “L” of the flow device 30, and which is rotatable about the longitudinal axis “L” of the flow device 30.
- the spindle assembly 370 also includes a first fan 355 and a second fan 365 fixed to the post 375 such that rotation of the post 375 about the longitudinal axis “L” (e.g., in the direction of arrow “A”) causes corresponding rotation of the first fan 355 and the second fan 365.
- the first fan 355 is disposed within the first chamber 350 of the housing 320 and the second fan 365 is disposed within the second chamber 360 of the housing 320.
- suction pressure applied by the vacuum source 15 (FIG. 1) to the first outlet 345 causes fluid to flow into the first chamber 350 from the inlet 340 against the blades of the first fan 355, thereby propelling the first fan 355 in the direction of arrow “A” within the first chamber 350.
- the rotation of the first fan 355 in the first chamber 350 causes rotation of the post 375 about the longitudinal axis “L”, which in turn, causes the second fan 365 to rotate within the second chamber 360.
- Rotation of the second fan 365 in the second chamber 360 causes ambient air to flow through the opening 325, into the second chamber 360, and from the second chamber 360 to the second outlet 346.
- the positive airflow pressure is applied to the inlet 130 of the tissue guard 100 and into a portion of the collar 120 (e.g., annular channel 128) to provide additional, positive, airflow thereby ensuring that smoke plume does not escape the tissue guard 100 and assisting the suction of smoke plume through the annular channel 128 and ultimately out of the outlet 140 of the tissue guard 100.
