Zusammenfassung: | The present invention relates to needle inserter assembly, particularly an assembly including a needle mounted to a support member for engaging a base member The assembly includes: a support member including a body portion and a needle, wherein the needle includes a lumen, a distal portion having a tip configured to facilitate insertion into a soft tissue of a patient, and a proximal portion mounted to the body portion so that the proximal portion extends along a longitudinal axis of the body portion. The assembly also includes a base member including a receiving portion configured to receivingly engaging the support member as the support member is moveable from a first position, in which the tip engages a first guide element within the base member, to a second position in which the tip extends out of an opening provided through the base member. In the second position, the support member is mounted to the base member with the longitudinal axis extending in a first direction. The first guide element is configured so that, as the support member moves from the first position towards the second position, the first guide element contactingly engages the needle to guide the tip towards the opening in a second direction, wherein the second direction is at an angle to the first direction. The invention also relates to a method of inserting a needle into soft tissue of a patient.
La présente invention concerne un ensemble d'insertion d'aiguille, en particulier un ensemble comprenant une aiguille montée sur un élément de support pour venir en prise avec un élément de base. L'ensemble comprend : un élément de support comprenant une partie corps et une aiguille, l'aiguille comprenant une lumière, une partie distale ayant une pointe conçue pour faciliter l'insertion dans un tissu mou d'un patient, et une partie proximale montée sur la partie corps de telle sorte que la partie proximale s'étend le long d'un axe longitudinal de la partie corps. L'ensemble comprend également un élément de base comprenant une partie de réception conçue pour venir en prise en réception avec l'élément de support lorsque l'élément de support est mobile depuis une première position, dans laquelle la pointe vient en prise avec un premier élément de guidage à l'intérieur de l'élément de base, vers une seconde position dans laquelle la pointe s'étend hors d'une ouverture disposée à travers l'élément de base. Dans la seconde position, l'élément de support est monté sur l'élément de base avec l'axe |
