    A novel urethral instrument system utilizes an elongated hollow guide and slipover attachments for enhanced safety and versatility. This innovative design simplifies procedures involving catheters, cystoscopes, and urethrotomes.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Medical Device Innovation
    • Surgical Instrumentation

    Background:

    • Current urethral instruments often rely on threaded locking mechanisms, which can pose safety challenges.
    • There is a need for improved instrumentation that enhances safety and procedural efficiency in urology.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce an innovative urethral instrument system designed for improved safety and versatility.
    • To demonstrate the compatibility of various urological instruments with the new guide system.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of an elongated hollow guide system.
    • Design of slipover urethral instruments, including a follower and sound, to replace traditional threaded instruments.
    • Testing the system's versatility by passing a Councill catheter, cystoscope, and direct vision urethrotome over the guide.
