Special support for preventing webbed scar after healing from axillary burns

Abstract

The invention discloses a special support for preventing webbed scar after healing from axillary burns, wherein the support comprises an L-shaped support main body; a regulating pad is arranged in a groove on the corner of the support main body; the regulating pad is arranged at the upper end of a regulating screw rod; the support main body is erected on upper limb and the side of a body, the upper limb is located in a transverse support arm and one side of the body is supported by a vertical support arm, and a fastening strap is fixedly arranged on the upper limb and the body, so that the upper limb stretches fully and is kept on a functional position; by rotating a regulating bolt, the regulating pad is ejected into the axilla upwards, so that pressure generates on the axilla through the regulating pad, and the rotating length of the bolt is changed according to the pressure value of a sensor, so as to regulate local pressure. Therefore, the special support can be used for effectively preventing skin shrinkage and controlling webbed scar hyperplasia as well as dysfunction due to the webbed scar hyperplasia. The special support has the characteristics of being accurate in functional position, reliable in fixation, obvious in local pressurizing effect and adjustable in pressure.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular relates to a special brace for preventing webbed scars after axillary burns heal. Background technique [0002] Scarring is a common sequelae after burns. When the scar grows beyond a certain limit, various complications will occur, such as the destruction of the shape and the dysfunction of the function. Webbed scars are often formed after armpit burns, resulting in upper limb movement disorders, seriously affecting normal study and life, and requiring multiple plastic surgeries, which are relatively difficult. Local compression is the most effective way to prevent local scarring. In the past, when preventing axillary burn scars, pressure garments and local pressure pads were often used, combined with L-shaped braces to maintain their functional positions. However, there are still serious deficiencies in this method: although the L-shaped brace can temporarily mainta...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, there are still serious deficiencies in this method: although the L-shaped brace can temporarily maintain the functional position of the limbs, it is difficult for the pressure garment and the local pressure pad to exert local pressure on the armpit, and cannot control the growth of the scar, which will eventually lead to webbing. The formation of scars seriously affects the appearance and brings great difficulty to the later plastic surgery
