The new guide-eye feature for ureteral instruments improves safety and effectiveness. This innovation allows for easier instrument access, combination, and placement during urological procedures.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Surgical Instrumentation

Background:

  • Urological procedures require precise instrument manipulation.
  • Existing ureteral instruments have limitations in access and sequential placement.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and evaluate the novel guide-eye feature for ureteral instruments.
  • To assess the impact of the guide-eye on instrument access, combination, and placement.

Main Methods:

  • Development of ureteral instruments equipped with the guide-eye feature.
  • Qualitative assessment of the guide-eye's functional benefits in simulated or clinical settings.

Main Results:

  • The guide-eye facilitates repetitive and coordinated instrument access.
  • It enhances the sequential placement of multiple instruments.
