THE USE OF SURGICAL TELESCOPE IN HEART SURGERIES

 

●     WHAT IS SURGICAL TELESCOPE??

 

A surgical telescope helps in performing the minimally invasive surgeries successfully. 

There are various laparoscopic surgeries which use surgical telescopes for treating and diagnosing the medical condition. 

The surgical telescope helps in providing the clear visualization of the infected area which is inside the body. 

It is very difficult to have a clear view of the diseased area without surgical telescopes.

 A surgical telescope consists of a series or lenses, so that the illuminating light can easily be conveyed and consequently helps in conveying the image successfully.

 These surgical telescopes are used in the rigid endoscopic procedures. There are basically two types of surgical telescopes, Rigid Telescopes and Flexible Telescopes.

 

●     THE IMPORTANCE OF SURGICAL TELESCOPES IN HEART SURGERIES

 

In the surgical procedures of the heart, the use of endoscopy units has been increasing day by day because they help in providing the support of imaging systems through clear images. Due to the increasing popularity of minimally invasive surgical procedures, the surgical telescopes are introduced in open heart surgeries as well for the clear visualization on the surgical monitor and also for performing the surgical procedure effectively and successfully. The surgical telescopes also help in making a recording of the whole surgical procedure for the future purposes. The surgical telescopes are highly demandable due to the increasing application of them in various laparoscopic and endoscopic procedures.

 

The surgical telescopes offer the guarantee of providing the image with the best quality with the right amount of brightness and detailed features. The combination of surgical telescope with endoscopy HD camera system helps in identifying the finest structures during the open-heart surgery and with the help of that, the surgeons perform the surgical procedure with the maximum level of precision and security. For example, if we talk about the surgical procedure of mitral valve along with video assistance, then a 30-degree scope with the diameter of 10mm or 5 mm is used. Similarly, for the endoscopic procedure of atrial ablations a 0-degree scope with the diameter of 10mm or 5 mm is preferred by the surgeons.

 

●     THE TYPES OF SURGICAL TELESCOPES

 

There are basically three types of surgical telescopes which are popularly used in minimally invasive surgical procedures. Let’s take a look at them.

 

❏   0 Degree Scope (Straight Forward Telescope)

 

0-degree scope usually has a diameter of 10mm and length 31cm. It helps you in providing an enlarged view of the infected area. This device is autoclavable and has the ability of fiber optic light transmission. The color code of 0-degree scope is green.

 

❏   30 Degree Scope (Forward Oblique Telescope)

 

The 30-degree scope which is also known as Forward Oblique Telescope has a diameter of 10 mm and the length of 31 cm. It provides you a 30-degree enlarged view of the diseased area. This telescope is also autoclavable and fiber optic light transmission. The color code is red.

 

❏   45 Degree Telescope

 

The 45-degree telescopes help in providing the enlarged view of the infected area at an angle of 45 degree. It has a diameter of 10 mm along with the length of 31 cm. This telescope is autoclavable and incorporated with fiber optic light transmission. Black is the code color of the 45-degree telescopes.

Frequent rhinitis: matter of concern.

Are you chronically suffering from blocked nose, headache, and heaviness of head? Shaking your head may worsen it. It may be due to the polyps of the nasal wall. But these symptoms occur in many other diseases. An only proper diagnosis makes it clear. Its diagnosis and treatment can be made by endoscopy.

What these nasal polyps are?

Nasal polyps are a small, painless, soft and non-cancerous an outgrowth of nasal wall mucosa that occurs in the sinuses and nose. Chronic sinusitis can exist in nasal polyp. It is not clear why it is found in some people while others don't develop polyps.

How does general health get affected by nasal polyp?

Small nasal polyps may not show any symptoms, especially a smaller one. But, larger ones can clog the sinus drainage and results in frequently infected sinuses. Chronic headache with cold and cough like symptoms. It may cause fever after sinus infection.

If they involve olfactory cells, it may cause reduces the sense of smell. Which affects daily life.

What are the symptoms present in nasal poly?

·         Nose block.

·         Heaviness of head.

·         Running nose.

·         Frequent rhinitis.

·         Headache.

·         Shortness of breath.

·         Epistaxis.

How nasal polyp get diagnosed?

Polyp's symptoms can overlap with much other illness many may be diagnosis get overshadowed.

1) Symptomatic diagnosis- on the basis of symptoms doctors can diagnose that it may be due to nasal polyp.

2) radioimaging- PNS x-ray

3) rhinoscopy (nasal endoscopy)- an endoscopy is the confirmatory examination. With the help of endoscopes, the doctor can visualize and locate the place of origin of the polyp. Thus, useful in treating it well.

How one can get rid of it?

1) You can opt for oral medicine also to make the size of polyp small or vanish. Anti-inflammatory, analgesics, antiallergic.

2) Polypectomy- surgical removal of a polyp. It is done by endoscopy.

Polypectomy Surgery:-

The general technique to remove nasal polyps is named as Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS). The surgeon put a narrow tube with a small camera into the nostrils and reach the sinus cavities. After that with an instrument inserted in an endoscope, a polyp is detached from the wall. With the polyp, the surgeon may clear adjacent areas in to maintain proper air entry and drainage of the sinuses. Endoscopy surgery is generally done on an outpatient basis.

Care about endoscopic polypectomy:-

After surgery doctor prescribed some antiinflammatory drugs (steroidal drugs). It is to take care that surgical removal of the nasal polyps doesn't decrease the inflammation completely so to continue the drugs given to you. Thus, improving your sense of smell by reducing inflammation of olfactory sinuses.

Don't suffer more, get your nasal issues diagnosed with rhinoscopy( nasal endoscopy), which is easy and hassle-free diagnostic procedure to cure your worry. For more information and advice consult at our website https://www.diasurge.com/

Why nose bleeds?

Blood in discharge from the nose! Is there any want to worry? Commonly, bleeding nostril is called epistaxis. It is very commonplace medical findings among people and not a disease condition. But it's miles worrisome symptom. It is the most commonplace emergency in Otorhinolaryngology.

Sometimes we may also are lucky in finding the motive or the factor of bleeding however it is not constantly easy. One of the feasible reason is the negative visualization of the curve areas of the nostril, that is situated within the deep inside the nose. But the fantastic news is there! Endoscopes. Endoscopes are actually boon to medical doctors and patients, for the reason that it not simplest helps in a very good visualization, but also presents a direct technique of remedy to the area.

WHAT CAUSES NOSE TO BLEED?

• Deviated nasal septum
• Ulcers
• Congested polyps
• Enlarged adenoids
• Angiofibroma

HOW DIAGNOSIS MADE BY ENDOSCOPY?

• It is carried out on OPD (out-patient department) basis. No admission to health facility required.
• These inflexible nasal endoscopy normally done beneath neighborhood anaesthesia or sometimes mild sedation is used.
• After anaesthesia Endoscope is inserted with the assist of some lubricant gel. Mostly lignocaine gel.
• Visualising the vicinity of bleeding. The first step consists of seeing the nasal vestibule, the nasopharynx, and the inferior nasal meatus.
• Then examining the sphenoethmoidal recess and the superior nasal meatus.
• Followed by means of checking middle nasal meatus.
• It has to be stated that the priority is given to control the bleeding if there is excessive bleeding and not to visualize the cause of bleeding. When the bleeding arrested endoscopy is performed.

CAN IT BE TREATED WITH ENDOSCOPE?

• The answer is yes! Nasal rigid Endoscope can deal with epistaxis with the assist of endoscopic equipment.
• Endoscope also beneficial inside the treatment of epistaxis. The ways by means of which epistaxis get handled consists of,
• Endoscopic nasal packing with gelfoam (blood absorbing agent which gives stress to the bleeder to make forestall bleeding).
• Clotting of bleeders through the usage of endoscopic cautery, it uses electrical energy to clot bleeder( endoscopic cautery or diathermy ).
• Endoscopic polypectomy (surgical treatment to cast off nasal polyps with the aid of endoscopic visualization of the polyp attachment to nasal wall).
• Endoscopic ligation (tie up the bleeders).
• Cryotherapy (low-temperature agent use to stop bleeding with the aid of shrinking the bleeders).

WHY ENDOSCOPY FOR EPISTAXIS?

• Easy, now not strain full. Done under anaesthesia.
• No admission to clinic required. OPD basis procedure. Surgery and treatment may additionally want sooner or later admission.
• Visualisation with endoscopes.
• Easily available at many healthcare centers.

You just want to be freed from worry and visit your doctor for treatment.

DOES LAUGHING OR COUGHING HURTS IN YOUR LOWER ABDOMEN? READ BELOW TO KNOW.

Do you feel pain; bulging and stress in the lower abdomen worsen it? Sometimes, area around the bulge can be sensitive. You may also feel periodic twinges or a pulling sensation. It may be due to a medical condition known as HERNIA. HERNIA involve a protruding internal organ or a body part being pushed through muscle or tissue. There are many types of hernia depending on the site of origin like inguinal, femoral, umbilical, incisional hernia.

ARE ALL HERNIAS PAINFUL?

Yes, hernias are painful and cause discomfort in the site when,

• Forcefully laughing
• Heavy lifting
• Coughing
• Bending over
  

Other symptoms may include,

• Heartburn
• Recurrent vomiting
• Stomach pressure
• Burning sensation
  

HOW TO DIAGNOSE IT

* Usually diagnosis is made by physical examination.

* Ultrasound of abdominal wall

* Endoscopy - to rule out any other disease.

DO HERNIAS NEED TREATMENT?

Hernia is not self-limiting, it keeps on increasing. Binder or supportive braces are also available. There is not any medical treatment rather surgical interventions are possible.

WHAT IF LEFT UNTREATED?

It will get worse if left untreated. Complication are following-

• Pressure on surrounding tissues
• Bowel obstruction
• Strangulated hernia
• Nausea and vomiting
• Bulge turns dark in color
• Inability to pass gas or absent bowel movements
• Chest pain, stomach ulcers

SURGERY! MADE YOU WORRY? 

Let's know about laparoscopic surgery.

 Minimal invasive surgery (endoscopic surgery) is the solution for you. This surgery is done by metallic tube with camera and lenses. Surgery is done with very small incision on abdomen. Easily repairable.

These surgeries are performed by specialized doctors. Minimally invasive surgery, also known as laparoscopy, involves a series of small incisions. A gas is used to inflate the affected area, which makes it easier for the surgeon to see the structures to be treated.

Another tube with a small camera will then be inserted into one of the incisions, with the others serving as entry points for the surgeon’s tools. This procedure is typically performed with general anesthesia. Those eligible for minimally invasive surgery tend to experience less post-op discomfort, as well as less scarring. You may also be able to return to regular levels of activity sooner than those who have open surgery.

Let's contact your doctor about your condition. Get it checked and treated with new, advanced and latest technology. For more information about laparoscopic instrument, different types of endoscopy contact us on our website http://www.diasurge.com

Gallbladder Stones and diagnosis by Endoscopes

Background:-

CHOLELITHIASIS means stones in gallbladder. These days it is a common problem in general population. Gallstones can sometimes come out of the gallbladder and get trapped in common bile duct and obstruct the flow of bile from liver and gallbladder to small intestine (duodenum). Thus leads to severe pain and feeling of fullness in abdomen.

Symptoms:-

Following symptoms may occur in CHOLELITHIASIS.

       - Nausea and vomiting

       - Abdominal pain

       - Indigestion

       - Jaundice (yellowish sclera)

       - Pale stool

       - Anorexia

Diagnosis:-

- Ultrasound of whole abdomen, CT abdomen

-ERCP (Endoscopic Retrogradecholangio Pancreatography)

- Blood reports

Treatment:-

It’s treatment includes surgery after reducing pain with NSAIDs (Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) and antibiotics. Surgery involves removal of gallbladder with stones. Earlier it was done through a large incision on Abdomen (open cholecystectomy). Nowadays, with a help of endoscopic techniques, surgery (Laparoscopic cholecystectomy) become easy and safer. It requires 3 to 4 small holes to perform the procedure.

Preparation before surgery:-

    - You should have your all investigations done as advised by your surgeon.

    - You have to be empty stomach for 6-8 hours.

    - Take a shower nicely with antiseptic soap on your surgery day.

How it is performed?

The surgery is performed by surgeon having specialisation in laparoscopic surgeries.

It involves following steps,

*        Surgery is done under general anesthesia.

*        Sterilization of part (abdomen)

*        Surgeon make a keyhole in your abdomen just below umbilicus. Then, insert a trocar (hallow, tubular metallic instrument) to make a port and inflate you abdomen with carbon dioxide to visualize the internal organs clearly. In the same port, a rigid laparoscope (tubular metallic with lenses and light attached to camera) is inserted, with help of this internal organs can be seen on monitor.

*        Other ports are made guided by camera for the insertion of other surgical instruments like scissors, hook, clamp, suction etc.

*        With the help of surgical instruments gall bladder is removed along with stones.

*        Abdomen is deflated after the procedure to avoid abdominal distension.

*        Repairing of incisions and dressing done.

*        General anesthesia usually lasts less than 2 hours, so you get conscious in 2 hours.

When to resume to normal diet?

Within 6-8 hours you can start with you liquid diet followed by semi-solid diet. By next day you can start with normal diet provided meal have low fat and less spices in it.

After surgery your body can no longer store bile as gall bladder is removed, this has little or no effect on digestion. Some may experience indigestion and heart burn for few days.

Why Laparoscopic surgery is preferred?

*        It require small incisions.

*        Decreases duration of hospital stay.

*        Recovery is faster.

*        Decreases the complication rate.

*        No exposure of internal organ to outside environment.

*        Less use of instruments.

*        Less haemorrhage.

ALL ABOUT DIASURGE MEDICAL ENDOSCOPE | An Overview

An illuminated optical, typically slender and tubular instrument used as a viewing system to look deep into the body and used in procedures as Endoscopy, Biopsy and Surgery is called an endoscope. Specialized instruments are named after their target organ. Examples include the cystoscope (bladder), rhinoscopy (nose), Hysteroscopy(uterus),  nephroscope (kidney), bronchoscope (bronchus), arthroscopy (joints), colonoscope (colon), laparoscope (abdomen or pelvis)

There are two types of endoscope equipment to broadly classify

• Rigid Endoscope
• Flexible Endoscope

A rigid lens or a flexible one is used in direct visualization of a diseased or affected area which employs a series of lens, optic fibers to make path for light to convey the image on the eyepiece.
