LAPAROSCOPE AND ENDOSCOPE CLEANING AND DEFOGGING DEVICE

摘要

A laparascope and endoscope cleaning and de-fogging device with a port located horizontally that is used to warm the scope prior to insertion into the body cavity/surgical site. The scope punctures the initial membrane and enters the cavity between two bodies of absorbent material that contain fluid. The absorbent material is arranged such that the passage of a scope would be accommodated for different sizes of surgical scopes. A circuit board is located on the bottom of the chamber that has a design element used to warm the liquid to a temperature equal to or greater than the temperature of the proposed surgical environment. When the scope is located between the two absorbent bodies, the heat generated by the circuit board is transferred via the liquid and contacts the scope, warming it in preparation for surgery.
