About Customer  

The N Medical Company is a leading comprehensive and integrated urological surgical device and solution provider.

Their main products include electronic cystoscope image processors, medical pressure-control flush suction systems, electronic uretero-scopes, stone retrieval baskets, ureteral negative pressure guide sheaths, and other related products.

The company's intelligent temperature and pressure-controlled flexible ureteroscope system is the world's first urological surgical product that can simultaneously measure temperature and pressure.

Application 

Incorporating ultrasonic flow sensors into the flow measurement process during the operation of a laparoscopic robot can significantly enhance the efficiency and accuracy of the procedure.

The laparoscopic robot, equipped with a camera for internal exploration, locates and examines diseased areas within the human body.

Upon identification of problematic stones, ultrasound is employed to disintegrate them, followed by the water to flush out the fragmented particles.

Throughout the flushing process, the utilization of a clamped-on ultrasonic flow sensor becomes essential to monitor the liquid flow, ensuring precise control and optimal outcomes in the removal of the stones.

Customer Value 

1. Ensure treatment effectiveness.

By accurately measuring fluid flow, it ensures that the amount of water used during the flushing process achieves optimal results, effectively removing the broken stones and reducing the risk of treatment failure.

2. Improve surgical safety.

Precisely measuring the fluid flow can reduce the occurrence of unexpected situations, ensuring the safety and stability of patients during the surgical process.

3. Optimize surgical procedures.

Accurately monitoring fluid flow helps doctors adjust parameters during the flushing process, improving the efficiency and precision of the surgery, reducing surgical time, and alleviating the workload of medical staff.
