Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Field of industrial application] This invention is a method for stably arranging and storing medical instruments used in surgeries, such as scalpels and scissors, especially sharp surgical instruments, in an easy-to-use condition. The present invention relates to a practical wrapping-type sterilization tray that can be subjected to hot water sterilization, steam sterilization, and chemical sterilization, and which can be brought into an operating room or the like after sterilization and used as is.

[Conventional technology and technical issues to be solved]

As is well known, scalpels, scissors, and other necessary instruments that doctors use when performing medical procedures such as surgeries are arranged on a tray called a tray near the operating table. This requires a very tedious process of wrapping the instruments in gauze etc. and sterilizing them with hot water or steam, or sterilizing them with a chemical solution, and then arranging them on the tray again. In addition to being efficient, there is a risk of contamination each time the equipment is transferred, and the equipment itself is placed unstable on the tray, so there is a risk of it being dropped. It was very inconvenient.

Under these circumstances, the applicant has provided end bumps on opposite sides of the silicone sheet, provided adhesive cross ties (sleepers) in the corresponding areas sandwiched between these end bumps, and created adhesive cross ties. A wrapping-type sterilization tray has been proposed in which sterilization can be performed by wrapping medical instruments so that they do not slide around by taking advantage of the properties of the tray (Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 1-120844). Furthermore, the wrapping tray constructed in this manner is convenient to use when sterilizing surgical instruments or when used at a surgical site after sterilization, and is welcomed by doctors.

However, this object cannot be moved or
Even though adhesive cross ties are used to prevent sliding during sterilization, if large inertial resistance is applied, adjacent instruments may collide with each other and damage the cutting edge. However, there was a problem in the maintenance of the equipment that needed to be improved.

This invention was devised in view of the above-mentioned drawbacks of the wrapping sterilization tray proposed in Utility Model Application Publication No. 1-120844. It is effective for equipment maintenance because even if a large shock is applied during handling, adjacent equipment will never collide with each other and the shock will be soft and cushioned to prevent damage. We provide wrapping type sterilization trays.

Another technical challenge of this invention is that it is a practical device that can perform hot water sterilization, steam sterilization, and even chemical sterilization on scalpels, scissors, and especially sharp surgical instruments that are stored and wrapped for ease of use. The technical problem is to provide a wrapping type sterilization tray.

[Means adopted to solve the problem]

The means adopted by the present inventor to solve the above technical problem will be explained with reference to the attached drawings.
It is as follows.

That is, in the present invention, end bumps 2 and 3 to cover both ends of the medical device T are provided oppositely over a required width on two opposing sides of a heat-resistant and chemical-resistant soft synthetic resin sheet 1, The remaining two open sides of the sheet 1 are folded over the end bumps 2 and 3 as flap parts 11 and 12 to make it possible to wrap the area defined by the end bumps 2 and 3 as an instrument accommodating part. A wrapping type that can accommodate medical instruments in a cushioning manner, characterized in that a large number of flexible polyp-like protrusions 4, 4... are arranged in a row on the upper surface of the accommodating part, and through holes 5 are appropriately opened in the sheet 1. This led to the realization of a sterile tray.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in more detail based on embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. Note that FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an outline of an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a partially enlarged perspective explanatory view of the embodiment in a state where the flap portions are engaged.

In the drawing, the reference numeral 1 is a heat-resistant and chemical-resistant soft synthetic resin sheet that forms the base of the product in this example, and transparent silicone resin is adopted in this example. It has been done. Both sides of the sheet 1 have flap portions 11 and 12 that are folded inward and hung together, and an end vamp (described later) is provided in the intermediate region sandwiched between these flap portions 11 and 12. . Note that the reference numeral 13 is a thin wall portion formed to improve the combination of the flaps 11 and 12.
They are formed at regular intervals in the bent portions of the flap portions 11 and 12.

Reference numerals 2 and 3 refer to end bumps integrally protruding from both sides of the intermediate region of the synthetic resin sheet 1, and each end bump has an internal space inside. Partition walls 21, 21, . . . and 31, 31, .
Both ends of the medical instrument T, such as scissors, will be inserted.

Reference numeral 4 designates flexible polyp-like protrusions that are arranged in multiple rows at regular intervals in the instrument accommodating section defined by the end bumps 2 and 3, and serve as cushioning members for instruments T. It acts as a.

Reference numeral 5 denotes through holes 5 formed in the soft synthetic resin sheet 1, and a large number of holes are formed especially in the instrument housing section.

The product of this example is generally constructed as described above, but
The present invention is by no means limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and may be modified in various ways within the scope of the claims for utility model registration. synthetic resin sheet 1
It is also possible to use fluorocarbon rubber or acrylic rubber as the material for the flaps, and it is also possible to provide an adhesive part on the mating surfaces of the flaps to prevent the flaps from unraveling easily during the sterilization process. It must be said that design changes naturally fall within the technical scope of the present invention.

[Effects of this invention]

As explained above with the examples, the product of the present invention has an end bump into which the end of the medical device is inserted onto a sheet made of heat-resistant and chemical-resistant soft synthetic resin, and an end bump for inserting the end of the medical device into the sheet. It is equipped with flexible polyp-like protrusions that should prevent sliding movement, so even if the cutting blade of a scalpel, scissors, etc. received in this is hit by a single shot due to inertial resistance, the cushioning effect of the polyp-like protrusions will prevent it from sliding. This prevents collisions with adjacent instruments and prevents damage such as broken blades, and also prevents medical instruments from moving carelessly during surgeries and other medical procedures, ensuring that the right instruments are placed in the right places. It is possible to keep the instruments fixed in an array, and since the stored instruments do not come into contact with each other, a quiet working environment is created without making loud noises during transportation or handling. When sterilizing instruments, the instruments can be placed in a high-temperature sterilizer (hot water/steam) while wrapped, or in a chemical solution, and even after sterilization is completed, they can be sterilized as before. It is very easy to use, as there is no need for the troublesome work of transferring it to the tray one by one.
Moreover, it can be said that there is no risk of making unhygienic mistakes such as dropping equipment carelessly.

As described above, according to the present invention, the sterilization and disinfection of medical instruments and treatment preparation work can be made convenient, and it will be extremely useful for medical personnel such as doctors and nurses.
