What is a endoscopic sampling forceps
Sampling forceps are commonly used in the medical field for sampling tissues or samples during surgical procedures. There are many types of sampling forceps, which can have different shapes and sizes depending on their purpose and design. One time biopsy forceps are used for sampling live tissues of the stomach, duodenum, and respiratory tract under endoscopy, and are used for gastroscopy and colonoscopy.
The biopsy forceps enter the digestive tract to extract mucosal tissue and come into direct contact with blood. Reusable biopsy forceps must be cleaned and disinfected after each use, and the complex structure of biopsy forceps poses significant difficulties in cleaning and disinfecting. If the cleaning and disinfection is not complete, it is easy to cause the spread of infectious diseases (such as hepatitis, AIDS, etc.), and there is a hidden danger of cross infection.
Sampling pliers typically consist of the following parts:
Clamp body: a part used to clamp and fix tissue or cell samples, usually made of metal, with different shapes and sizes to accommodate different sampling sites and purposes.
Handle: The part used to grip and operate the sampling forceps, usually made of metal or plastic, with a certain degree of gripping performance.
Core rod: A part used to support and fix the clamp body, usually made of metal, with a certain degree of hardness and elasticity.
Cable: The part used to control the opening and closing of the clamp body and the gripping force, usually made of metal or plastic, with certain toughness and durability.
Are biopsy forceps and sampling forceps the same thing
Biopsy forceps are biopsy forceps, which are the same type of instrument commonly used in gastroscopy and colonoscopy. If doctors find any abnormalities during the examination, they will use this instrument to clamp them out for testing. The differences lie in terms of functionality, materials, and usage scenarios. In most countries and regions around the world, disposable live sampling forceps have been widely accepted and used by doctors. Mainly used for biopsy samples such as gastroscopy, colonoscopy, bronchoscopy, etc., suitable for gastroenterology and respiratory medicine.
