Description
Summary:This paper investigated the mechanical behavior of the contact between the oblique tip puncture needle and the tracheal tissue during pathological examination for the diagnosis of respiratory diseases. By analyzing the force of the oblique tip puncture needle, this paper established a theoretical model of the contact mechanics between the needle and the tracheal tissue. With the material characteristics, needle diameter and puncture angle of trachea tissue as the loading conditions, the biomechanical simulation of piercing process was carried out by using the finite element simulation method, and realistic puncture experiments on isolated porcine tracheal tissue were performed by electronic universal testing machine. The results showed that the puncture needle was mainly subjected to the combined effect of cutting force, clamping force and frictional force on the needle shaft. When the needle diameter was 22G, penetrating the tracheal tissue vertically, the force on the needle was minimal. Meanwhile, it was found that the error between the experimental and theoretical values of the puncture force did not exceed 10%, thus verifying the feasibility of the hypothetical model of the puncture force in the tracheal tissue rupture stage. It provided a theoretical basis for the intervention of surgical instruments and reduced surgical risks.
