Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to an improved external fixation splint for children's forearm fractures. Background Art

[0002] At present, the splints used for external fixation of forearm fractures in children are mostly small adult splints. There is no splint specifically designed for the special characteristics of children. Due to low compliance, children often have reduced finger movement after forearm fracture splint external fixation treatment, resulting in prolonged edema at the injured part, which seriously affects fracture healing and is not conducive to children's rehabilitation. Therefore, inventing a splint that can be used by children's affected limbs will help reduce edema in the affected limbs and promote fracture healing and rehabilitation. Summary of the invention

After external fixation of the pediatric forearm fracture splint, the child is encouraged to actively move the fingers of the affected limb, promote the disappearance of edema of the affected limb and fracture healing, improve the compliance of children during use, and facilitate wide promotion and use.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve its technical problem is: an improved external fixation splint for children's forearm fractures, comprising a long wooden board, grooves are respectively arranged in parallel at the ends of the wooden board along the length direction, steel meshes are inlaid in the grooves, and first magnets are embedded and fixed between the steel meshes.

[0005] It is further defined that in the above technical solution, the lower end of the steel mesh is flush with the bottom end surface of the wooden board, and the upper end of the steel mesh protrudes from the steel mesh by 2 to 3 cm; this design is to embed and clamp the magnet through the part of the steel mesh that protrudes from the wooden board.

[0006] It is further defined that in the above technical solution, one side of the first magnet also adsorbs the hand-grasping toy, and a second magnet is arranged on the side wall of the hand-grasping toy for adsorbing and fixing the first magnet; the hand-grasping toy can be quickly adsorbed by the first magnet.

[0007] It is further defined that, in the above technical solution, the groove on the side of the groove close to the wooden board is 2 to 3 cm away from the wooden board; this can improve stability during use.

[0008] It is further defined that, in the above technical solution, the length of the hand-grabbing toy is 2 to 5 cm, the width is 3 to 6 cm, and the height is 3 to 10 cm.

[0009] It is further defined that, in the above technical solution, the wire mesh is made of stainless steel material with a diameter of 1.2 mm.

[0010] It is further defined that, in the above technical solution, a protective sleeve is provided on the outer side of the wooden board, so that the wooden board can be effectively protected.

[0011] It is further defined that in the above technical solution, the protective sleeve is made of knitted cotton or nylon material; it is easy to replace and provides effective external protection.

[0012] It is further defined that, in the above technical solution, the wooden board is made of willow, walnut or oak material; thereby increasing the service life of the wooden board.

[0018] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0019] In the description of the present invention, it is necessary to understand that the terms "one side", "the other side", "both sides", "middle", "inner side", "upper end face", "lower end face", "upper part", "lower part", "top" and the like indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the referred device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0020] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "disposed" and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0021] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The figure shows an improved external fixation splint for children's forearm fractures, which comprises a long wooden board 1, grooves 2 are respectively provided at the ends of the wooden board 1 in parallel along the length direction, steel meshes 3 are embedded in the grooves 2, and first magnets 4 are embedded and fixed between the steel meshes 3.

[0022] Among them, the lower end of the steel mesh 3 is flush with the bottom end surface of the wooden board 1, and the upper end of the steel mesh 1 protrudes from the steel mesh by 2 to 3 cm. One side of the first magnet 4 also absorbs the hand-grasping toy 5, and the side wall of the hand-grasping toy 5 is provided with a second magnet 6 for adsorbing and fixing the first magnet 4. The groove 2 in the groove 2 close to the side of the wooden board 1 is 2 to 3 cm away from the wooden board. The hand-grasping toy 5 is 2 to 5 cm long, 3 to 6 cm wide, and 3 to 10 cm high. The steel mesh 3 is made of stainless steel with a diameter of 1.2 mm. A protective cover 7 is provided on the outer side of the wooden board 1. The protective cover 7 is made of knitted cotton or nylon. The wooden board 1 is made of willow, walnut or oak.

[0023] The principle of use of this improved pediatric forearm fracture external fixation splint is as follows:

[0024] First, the operator can fix the device on the child's affected limb, and then adsorb the hand-grasping toy 5 on the first magnet 4 through the second magnet 6. In this way, the child's fun is increased by the separation and adsorption of the hand-grasping toy 5, which encourages the child's affected limb fingers to grasp the toy and increase the interest in moving the fingers, thereby accelerating the swelling of the affected limb. The operation is convenient and quick.

[0025] The present application solves the problem that after external fixation of forearm fracture with splint, children are unwilling to actively move the fingers of the affected limb due to pain, which makes the swelling of the affected limb difficult to subside and the pain worsens, thus forming a vicious circle and seriously affecting the healing of the fracture and rehabilitation exercises.

[0026] The beneficial effects produced by the present application are as follows: to promote children to actively move the fingers of the affected limb after external fixation of forearm fracture splint, and further to promote the disappearance of edema of the affected limb and the healing of fracture.

[0027] What has been described above are only preferred specific implementations of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field, within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solutions and inventive concepts of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
