Temperature control system and method for preventing pressure injury and hypothermia

Abstract

The invention discloses a temperature control system and method for preventing pressure injury and hypothermia, the system comprises a pressure injury prevention pad which is in close contact with a patient, a plurality of inflatable airbags are designed on the pressure injury prevention pad, and the inflatable airbags can be controlled to rise at different time in a staggered manner, so that the patient is supported, due to the fact that the supporting face of the patient can be changed by changing different inflatable airbags, pressure of the area making contact with the patient is redistributed, intermittent pressure reduction is achieved on the body of the patient, and pressure injury is effectively prevented. In order to realize the function of keeping constant temperature or heating or cooling when the inflatable air bag is contacted with a patient, air can be input into the inflatable airbag after being heated, so that the effect of keeping the patient warm by blowing hot air through the airbag which is directly contacted with the patient is achieved, the condition of hypothermia in an operation is prevented, so that doctors are more effectively assisted in performing deep hypothermia extracorporeal circulation operations on patients, and rehabilitation of the patients is promoted.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a pressure injury prevention and hypothermia temperature control system and method. Background technique [0002] Pressure injury itself is not a primary disease. Most of it is caused by long-term pressure during surgery or bedridden patients without good care. It will bring a series of harms, increase the pain of patients, aggravate the basic condition, prolong the course of the disease, and may even cause life-threatening sepsis. [0003] Pressure injuries mostly occur at bony prominences that are under pressure and lack adipose tissue protection, no muscle wrapping, or a thin muscular layer. Avoid long-term pressure on the same part, and decompression is the basic preventive care measure. Bedridden patients should turn over once every 2-3 hours, alternate left and right lying or supine positions, and use soft pillows, air pillows, water pillows, sponge rings, etc. to...
