Upper limb supporting pad applied after flap surgery

Abstract

The invention relates to a medical apparatus, and in particular relates to an upper limb supporting pad applied after a flap surgery. The upper limb supporting pad applied after a flap surgery comprises a bag body, a concave plate of which the shape is matched with the shape of the upper limb, an inflation pipe, a deflation valve and an inflation ball. The upper limb supporting pad applied after the flap surgery is characterized in that the concave plate of which the shape is matched with the shape of the upper limb is arranged on an upper surface of the bag body; one end of the concave plate is hinged with the bag body, and the other end is a free end capable of changing a fixed position with the bag body. The upper limb supporting pad is original and convenient to use, and is not only capable of regulating height of the supporting pad but also can regulate a bending angle of the upper limb through a patient, so as to keep the upper limb in an appropriate inclination angle; the upper limb supporting pad can prevent the flap from being drawn, avoid root erosion of the flap and wound infection, and can promote rapid healing of the wound and survival of the flap.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical device, in particular to an upper limb support pad after skin flap surgery. Background technique [0002] After the flap operation, in order to ensure the survival of the flap, the pedicle of the flap must be stretched to prevent twisting and folding. After the operation, the affected limb must be kept fixed in the abdomen for 3-4 weeks before the pedicle can be broken for the second-stage operation. . Improper fixation of the affected limb often leads to stiffness, muscle atrophy, and even folded and avulsed skin flaps, resulting in failure of the operation. Traditionally, cotton pillows are usually used as pads under the affected limbs. Because the cotton pillows are soft and cannot be adjusted in height, they cannot maintain an effective fixed state for a long time. The pedicles of the flaps often fold or even tear off, and the comfort is low. [0003] The authorized announcement number is CN201123858Y, and the a...

Improper fixation of the affected limb often leads to stiffness, muscle atrophy, and even folded and avulsed skin flaps, resulting in failure of the operation

Traditionally, cotton pillows are usually used under the affected limb. Because the cotton pillow is soft and its height cannot be adjusted, it cannot maintain an effective fixed state for a long time. The pedicle of the flap often folds or even tears off, and the comfort is low.

[0003] The authorized announcement number is CN201123858Y, and the announcement date is October 1, 2008. The Chinese utility model patent discloses a support for the affected limb of a patient after iliac and abdominal flap surgery. device, although the support device realizes the function of adjustable height, it fails to solve the problem of increasing patient comfort
