  • Publication number: 20150005813
    Abstract: The surgical instrument comprises a forceps tool (5) having a forceps base (21) and at least two forceps fingers (29) guided such that they can move relative to one another on the forceps base (21), and a manual actuation element for opening and closing the forceps element (5). The manual actuation element is connected to the forceps tool (5) via an elongated, flexible actuation cable (3) which comprises a tubular, flexible cable sheath (13) connected to the forceps base (21) and a flexible cable core (15) guided displaceably in the cable sheath (13) and connected to the forceps fingers (29) for opening and closing the forceps tool (5). At least the forceps fingers (29) of the forceps tool (5) are made of a non-ferromagnetic or substantially non-ferromagnetic metal, in particular titanium.

  • Patent number: 8479344
    Abstract: Disclosed is a cleaning wick for a channel of a medical instrument, particularly an endoscope. Said cleaning wick supports at least one, preferably several wiping elements (9) on the elongate, flexible wick (1) that can be inserted into the instrument channel. The wiping elements (9) are designed as flock coating that adheres to the wick (1) in a section of the length thereof. Unflocked zones (11) that are left between the wiping elements (9) absorb substances which are to be discharged from the instrument channel during the cleaning process. An unflocked final region (13) located at the longitudinal ends (3, 5) of the wick (1) makes it easier to introduce the cleaning wick into the instrument channel.

  • Patent number: 7517347
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electrosurgical instrument (5) for an endoscope or a catheter, which can be operated by means of a high-frequency current, contact electrosurgical treatment and non-contact plasma coagulation in an ionisable gas. A stationary electrode (33) is arranged on the distal end of a guiding tube (7) that can be introduced into the instrument channel (1) of an endoscope catheter (3), and when the electrosurgical electrode for the contact treatment is in the retracted position in the guiding tube (7), the stationary electrode is connected to the electrosurgical electrode (11) by means of a contact element (37).The retracted position of the electrode (11) can, but not necessarily, be maintained by an abutment (21) of a handling device (13) and/or by a suitable arrangement and measurement of the contact element (37). The retracted position of the electrode (11) does not need to be optically controlled.

  • Publication number: 20040162527
    Abstract: The invention relates to a sterile sheath for an injection syringe to guarantee sterility for a product which has been taken up by the injection syringe. The sterile sheath includes a sealable casing made of plastic and an output connection piece, the interior of the sheath serving to receive the injection syringe. The injection syringe can be connected to the output connection piece, which is provided with a valve whose direction of flow is exclusively from the injection syringe to the exterior. Owing to the valve, no microorganisms are able to ascend from the exterior into the syringe.
