The Valero Tip and Attachment for Cooper Surgical Rumi Uterine Manipulator

Abstract

<h3>Study Objective</h3> To produce a Stainless-Steel surgical degree tip and attachment that works with uterine manipulator and allows the use of cervical cup for different types of surgeries. - Plastic pollution continue to be a serious problem for human health and environment, it's estimate that for 2030, 53 million tonnes of plastic could end up in rivers, lakes and oceans. One example of how changing consumption patterns can improve the environment is the use and disposal of plastics. The global theme of World Environment Day is "Beat Plastic Pollution". It aims to change consumer behaviour with the challenge, "If you can't reuse it, refuse it." In OR we don't have exception, for reducing Medical Waste and optimizing our ORs for the future, we design a stainless-steel surgical degree tip and attachment for the uterine manipulator. <h3>Design</h3> We produce a 3-D Model plastic tip as a prototype, subsequently a stainless-steel tip and attachment <h3>Setting</h3> Like it adapts to a uterine manipulator, patient position is lithotomy, the Tip attaches by a "ring" then allows the use of a cervical cup that adapts to the ring. <h3>Patients or Participants</h3> N/A. <h3>Interventions</h3> N/A. <h3>Measurements and Main Results</h3> The design patent pending through the School of Medicine and Engineer, attach to the three types of uterine manipulator also it allows to use the cervical cup and provides the ability to use it in hysterectomy or other procedures without the cervical cup. Base on this we present the prototype guide and assemble. <h3>Conclusion</h3> The reestirilization of the tip allows us not promote the use of plastic waste.
