Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to an intelligent neck collar. Background technique [0002] Cervical collar is an auxiliary treatment device for cervical spondylosis, which can brake and protect the cervical spine, reduce nerve wear, reduce traumatic reaction of intervertebral joints, and help the disappearance of tissue edema, consolidate the curative effect, and prevent recurrence. The cervical collar can be applied to various types of cervical spondylosis, and it is more suitable for patients with acute attack, especially for patients with cervical disc herniation, sympathetic nerve type and vertebral artery type cervical spondylosis. [0003] Non-surgical treatment of some patients with cervical spondylosis requires cervical collar for braking and protection; clinically, some cervical spine patients need cervical collar for protection and braking after surgery; some patients with cervical trauma also ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0007] (1) For some patients after surgery, because the neck is moved when wearing it, the patient's neck wound is painful and uncomfortable;

[0008] (2) The protection of the posterior occipital prominence is insufficient, and the patient complains of pain and discomfort in the occipital;

[0009] (3) The air permeability is poor, and wearing it for too long will easily cause hygienic problems on the skin surface of the neck;

[0010] (4) It is complicated to wear and has been worn for a long time. Patients are more confused about the wearing and adjustment of the neck collar: the wearing is complicated and the wearing time is long, and it is not easy to master the correct wearing method; they do not know how to adjust the neck collar and to what extent. Lack of instructions and feedback; complex wearing, poor patient compliance, long-term non-standard wearing or even non-wearing of neck collar; clinicians can often see some patients wearing non-standard and loose wearing in outpatient clinics and wards, which does not achieve the medical treatment designed by him On the contrary, wearing too tight can easily cause skin damage

[0011] (5) It is difficult for doctors to truly grasp the real situation of the patient's neck collar wearing time, and the wearing data cannot be obtained. The patient's self-report and estimation are all used for outpatient follow-up, which is not conducive to the treatment of the disease (too much wearing time, too little is harmful) ;

[0012] (6) The neck collar has no feedback and guidance on the patient's wearing posture, time, and wearing method
