Abstract

The development of human papillomavirus screening tests is outpacing the introduction of new treatment technologies. In low-resource settings, there is an urgent need for treatment methods that are accessible, affordable, and sustainable in areas with limited medical infrastructure. The gasless CryoPen® Cryosurgical System overcomes the limitations of traditional gas-based cryotherapy and is being adapted specifically for use in low-resource areas. The innovative device demonstrates exceptional portability, durability, and efficiency. The adapted CryoPen® is a simple, safe, and practical option for treatment of cervical precancer in settings that cannot support gas-based cryotherapy.
CryoPen®,一种适用于低资源环境的无气体冷冻治疗系统
人乳头瘤病毒筛查试验的发展速度超过了新治疗技术的引进速度。在资源匮乏的环境中,医疗基础设施有限的地区迫切需要可获得、负担得起和可持续的治疗方法。无气体CryoPen®冷冻手术系统克服了传统气体冷冻疗法的局限性,特别适用于资源匮乏地区。这一创新设备展示了卓越的便携性、耐用性和效率。改良后的CryoPen®是一种简单、安全、实用的宫颈癌前病变治疗方案,适用于不能支持气体冷冻疗法的环境。
