The Zangemeister method is a surgical method developed by the German gynecologist Wilhelm Zangemeister at the beginning of the 20th century. This method was aimed at treating various gynecological diseases such as uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts and other conditions.
Zangemeister proposed using a special device for removing ovarian cysts, which he called a “conical probe.” The conical probe was a metal tube with a conical tip that made it easy to penetrate the uterine cavity and remove cysts.
The Zangemeister method has been very popular in Germany and other European countries for several decades. However, over time, it was discovered that this method can lead to serious complications such as uterine perforation, bleeding and infections. In addition, the use of a conical probe could lead to damage to surrounding tissue and the development of scars.
Currently, the Zangemeister method is not used in clinical practice due to its high traumatic nature and low efficiency. Instead, more modern treatment methods are used, such as laparoscopy or hysteroscopy, which allow cysts and other tumors to be removed more accurately and safely.
Tsangemeisterna method: Description of the process
The Tsangemistra Method refers to a method of sterilizing surgical instruments by soaking them in a strong alcohol solution and heating them over an open fire. This method was proposed by the German gynecologist Professor W. Zangemeister in 1912, and subsequently became widely used in medical institutions around the world.
The name "zangeist" comes from the German word "zange", which means tweezers, since these are the tools used when processing instruments. The Zangheist method is used for disinfection, sterilization and firing of surgical pinets, caustic instruments and ligatures. It is also used to remove contaminants, adhesives and foreign particles from instruments, reducing their shelf life and optimizing the performance of healthcare workers.
According to the Tsangemistan method, to sterilize instruments you need to perform the following steps:
1. Soak the tools in alcohol or other strong alcohol for about 5-7 minutes. 2. Rinse tools under running water. 3. Heat the tools over an open flame, such as a stove, gas burner, or open fire, for about 5 minutes. This will allow you to clean the instrument and dry it. 4. Ensure that the instrument is treated with additional alcohol solution for 40 minutes before they use it again. 5. Use surgical instruments only in closed instruments or sterilizing containers in accordance with medical safety and handling instructions. 6. In healthcare settings, infectious materials should be stored in separate areas that are located away from other areas (for example, oxygen-sensitive areas or clean rooms). 7. Remember the importance of safe handling of chemicals and regulations regarding the disposal of hazardous waste and materials. 8. Replace outdated or used tools with new ones. Regular sterilization and sterilization of instruments is necessary to prevent the risk of infection
