Reusable ultrasonic scalpel

Abstract

A reusable ultrasonic scalpel comprising a handle assembly and an ultrasonic waveguide extended to the distal end transmitting ultrasonic mechanical energy. Outside the ultrasonic waveguide is a sheath assembly, and the sheath assembly is detachably connected to the handle assembly by a quick connecting mechanism. The beneficial effects are mainly reflected on: reliable installation, easy to disassemble, easy to clean and disinfect. The sheath assembly serving as a consumable may be quickly replaced, while the remaining parts may be reused, and may undergo cleaning and high temperature steam sterilization. Thus, the cost of surgical consumables is greatly reduced, the burden on patients is reduced, and the risk of cross-infection when using the ultrasonic scalpel bar is also reduced.
