DEVICE FOR PERFORMING THE PROCEDURE FOR INTRODUCING THE THREAD Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC A61B17/00 A61B17/06 A61B17/34 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medical equipment, namely to a thread embedding instrument and to a device for performing thread introduction procedure, which provide a combination of electric stimulation procedures and insertion of the introduced thread. Device for thread embedding procedure contains thread embedding tool, including tubular needle, bushing, handle and penetrated thread, first electrode pad and second electrode pad, low-frequency power supply for supply of electric current through wires to the first electrode pad and the second electrode pad. Tubular needle is made of electroconductive material, has one pointed end and cavity. Bushing is located around the external circular surface of the other end of the tubular needle. Outer circular surface of sleeve is made of electrically insulating material. Handle is made of electroconductive material, one part of which is connected to the end of the tubular needle inside the bushing, and the other part projects outward from the bushing. Inserted thread consists of an inner part located in the cavity of the tubular needle and an external part extending outward through the end of the tubular needle connected to the inner part. First electrode pad is applied on operator's skin. Second electrode pad is applied on patient's skin. Device enables the operator to hold the instrument handle to introduce the thread, perform electric stimulation of the patient's skin when the needle thread needle is introduced into the patient's skin.

EFFECT: use of the invention provides a simple realization of the electrical stimulation before, during and after the introduction of the embedded thread.
