  • Such samples are used for example in cytological examination.
  • hypodermic needle Typically this is achieved by the use of a hypodermic needle and
  • the technique requires medical staff to insert the needle at the correct location
  • sample of cellular material is drawn up (aspirated) into the needle.
  • the material can be any material that can be used to release and the needle withdrawn from the patient.
  • the material can be any material that can be used to release the needle withdrawn from the patient.
  • the target is usually either a visible or palpable mass or lesion seen
  • US-A-2460641 describes a system in which a previously evacuated flask is
  • the present invention seeks to enable the single handed operation of a device
  • the present invention therefore provides apparatus comprising a sample receiving chamber connectable to a source of suction via a valve within the chamber, and an externally accessible operating mechanism linked to the valve thereby to permit selective connection between the chamber and the source.
  • the source of suction is preferably a previously evacuated vessel. This will ideally have a wall section made of a penetrable membrane such as rubber.
  • a cannula or other sharp tipped conduit will thus be able to gain access to the vacuum.
  • the evacuated vessel could be integrated into the apparatus if desired.
  • the valve preferably comprises a resilient member normally biased to rest in a sealing fashion against an outlet of the source of suction.
  • the operating mechanism is preferably operable by squeezing the apparatus.
  • a suitable mechanism is a compressible portion of the apparatus within which at least one substantially rigid rod members is attached at one end to the interior of the compressible portion and at the other to the valve and disposed at an angle to the compression direction. This arrangement results in the valve being displaced when the compressible portion is compressed.
  • a preferred arrangement is one in which the apparatus is elongate with an annular thinned region thereabout to enable local compression.
  • the valve can be located within the chamber to selectively seal a conduit leading to the chamber from the source of suction.
  • Figure 1 is a cross section through the example of the invention prior to use
  • Figure 2 is a cross section corresponding to figure 1 , showing the example in use;
  • Figure 3 is a cross section on Ill-Ill of figure 1 ;
  • Figure 4 shows the manner of expulsion of a sample from the example.
  • figure 1 shows an apparatus 10 according to the invention which comprises an elongate barrel 1 2.
  • the barrel has an open rear end 14 and a front end 1 6 which tapers to a conventional fitting 1 8 for a hypodermic needle 8, such as a Luer fitting.
  • a disposable reservoir 20 is pre-evacuated and in the form of a cylinder sized to fit within the barrel.
  • One end of the reservoir is sealed with a membrane 22 which extends across that end and attaches to the outer face of the cylinder.
  • Sealing fins 24 extend outwardly to take up the tolerance between the outside of the reservoir and the inside of the barrel.
  • an interior wall 26 divides the interior of the barrel into a sample region 28 and a reservoir-receiving region 30.
  • the interior wall 26 is solid except for a central flow passage 32 extending into the reservoir-receiving region 30 and ending in a spike 34.
  • a valve member 36 is located in the sample region 28 and has a tapered tip adapted to fit into the flow passage 32 in a sealing manner.
  • the valve member 36 is held in place by a plurality of substantially rigid rod members 38 which are attached at another end to internal faces of the barrel. These rod members are shown in more detail in figure 3 and form spokes about the valve member 36 in order to support it without preventing fluid flow in its vicinity.
  • the rod members are disposed within the barrel 1 2 at an acute angle to the radial dimension.
  • the barrel wall is locally thinned in the region 40 where the rod members 38 are attached. This allows the barrel to be compressed in this region, deflecting the rod members due to the angle between them and the radial compression direction. This lifts the valve member 36 from the flow passage 32.
  • FIG. 1 A hypodermic needle 8 is fitted onto the fitting 1 8.
  • the reservoir is pushed home onto the spike 34, piercing the membrane 22.
  • the valve member 36 prevents loss of the vacuum within the reservoir.
  • the operator holds the apparatus as in the manner of a pencil, with thumb and forefinger lying gently on the locally thinned region 40, and the hypodermic is inserted into the appropriate area of the patient.
  • the operator squeezes with thumb and forefinger, lifting the valve member from the passage 32 and allowing fluid communication between the reservoir 20 and the sample region 28.
  • This evacuates the sample region 28 and a sample from the patient is drawn in the manner of US 2,460,641 .
  • the pressure on the thinned region 40 is relaxed allowing the valve member to return to the a sealing position on the passage 32. Flow then stops and the hypodermic can be removed from the patient.
  • the hypodermic 8 can (if desired) be removed, and the reservoir is removed and re-inserted in the barrel in a reversed orientation as shown in figure 4.
  • the rear end of the reservoir is for this purpose formed with a sealing ring 42 about its outer edge to seal against the interior of the barrel 1 2, and a recess 44 adapted to accommodate the spike 34 when fully home.
  • a suitably positioned receptacle can then be employed to collect the sample.
  • the present invention permits the extraction of a sample from a patient with only single-handed operation at all material times.
  • the reservoir could be replaced with a switchable source of vacuum or gas.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil (10) destiné à aspirer un échantillon. Cet appareil comprend une chambre de réception d'échantillon (28) pouvant être reliée à une source d'aspiration (20) par l'intermédiaire d'une soupape (36) située à l'intérieur de la chambre (28), ainsi qu'un mécanisme d'actionnement accessible par l'extérieur (40) et relié à la soupape (36), d'où la possibilité de réaliser un raccordement sélectif entre la chambre (28) et la source (20). Ledit appareil (10) permet d'effectuer une aspiration à l'aiguille fine de spécimens cytologiques avec une seule main.
