DISPENSER EQUIPPED WITH TUBE FOR ENDOSCOPE Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC A61B1/00 

FIELD: medical equipment.

SUBSTANCE: endoscope protector contains dispenser and flexible tube. Dispenser is furnished with inlet and outlet holes detecting pass-through for endoscope. At least part of flexible tube is folded up nearby dispenser. Tube has closed distal end and open proximal end fixed on dispenser so that endoscope forwarding in distal direction by pass-through reaching the tube through proximal end contacting with tube distal end, thus making unfolding of tube part covering distal part of endoscope going out through outlet hole. Related device contains endoscope and tube design. Endoscope is applied for introduction to patient's body. Tube design includes dispenser and flexible tube. Dispenser is equipped with inlet and outlet holes detecting pass-through for endoscope. At least part of flexible is folded up nearby dispenser. Tube has closed distal end and open proximal end fixed on dispenser so that endoscope forwarding in distal direction by pass-through reaching the tube through proximal end contacting with tube distal end, thus making unfolding of tube part covering distal part of endoscope going out through outlet hole. Method of endoscope protection from dirtying includes: - provision of flexible tube furnished with closed distal end and open proximal end, and at least part of tube is folded up within compaction area; - introduction of distal part of endoscope through specified proximal end to folded part of tube contacting with distal end; and - introduction of endoscope to patient's body through hole with unfolding of tube part to cover distal part of endoscope going through opening to related duct.

EFFECT: inventions provide prevention of dirtying of operator's hands and endoscope control and diagnostic table.
