Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical care, and in particular to an adjustable postoperative cervical fixation pillow. Background Art

[0002] Cervical spine diseases, cervical spine trauma, especially cervical spine surgery and postoperative rehabilitation require protection and immobilization of the neck. Especially in the early postoperative period, neck immobilization is the key to ensuring the success of the operation. The cervical spine immobilization currently used in clinical practice mainly includes single-piece type, front and back two-piece type, complete neck circumference, Halo head ring vest, and some hospitals’ homemade 3-pound rice bags on both sides of the head. Although they can meet the basic requirements for neck protection, their uses are relatively single and there are still many problems. For example, some can only maintain the functional position of the patient when lying flat, restricting the patient's activities; some have poor comfort and affect the patient's rest; some bring economic burden to the patient; some cannot meet the patient's head and neck height requirements when lying flat or lying on the side. Summary of the invention

[0003] In order to overcome the problems of existing cervical fixation pillows with single functions and poor comfort, which affect patients' rest, the present invention provides an adjustable postoperative cervical fixation pillow, which, by combining a headrest and a neck pillow, can be used for postoperative braking, anti-rotation, and maintaining neck function when lying on the back or side.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve its technical problems is: an adjustable postoperative cervical vertebrae fixation pillow, comprising a neck pillow and a headrest connected to the neck pillow for supporting the back of the head, characterized in that: support bodies that can be horizontally rotated to adjust the distance are respectively installed on the left and right sides of the neck pillow, and the headrest can adjust the position by shaking back and forth, an inflatable airbag is connected to the side of the neck pillow away from the headrest, a trapezoidal fixing bracket is installed inside the neck pillow, the left and right ends of the fixing bracket are connected to the supporting body through a spherical joint, and the front end of the fixing bracket is connected to a plurality of spherical joint connecting rods, and the spherical joint connecting rods extend to the inside of the headrest.

[0005] Furthermore, the neck pillow is in a slope shape with a lower front and a higher back.

[0006] Furthermore, the outer layers of the headrest and the neck rest are both wrapped with memory foam.

[0007] Furthermore, an inflatable air pillow is detachably connected to the upper surface of the headrest.

[0008] Furthermore, the outer surface of the support body is wrapped with memory foam.

[0009] Furthermore, the support body is elliptical.

[0010] Furthermore, the spherical joint connection of the spherical joint connecting rod is a non-smooth spherical surface.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: by installing a fixing bracket inside the neck pillow, the left and right ends of the fixing bracket are respectively connected to the supporting body through a spherical joint, and the supporting body can rotate around the spherical joint to change the distance between the two supporting bodies, so as to adapt to the requirements of different neck circumferences and fix the cervical vertebrae; a plurality of spherical joint connecting rods are connected to the front end of the fixing bracket, and the spherical joint connecting rods extend to the inside of the head pillow, and the position of the head pillow can be adjusted forward and backward by shaking the spherical joint connecting rods back and forth, so as to facilitate the patient to adjust to the most suitable and comfortable position; an inflatable airbag is connected to the end of the neck pillow away from the headrest, and the inflatable airbag can fill the gap between the neck and the neck pillow after being inflated, so as to better fix the cervical vertebrae.

[0016] 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 below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0017] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the adjustable postoperative cervical vertebra fixation pillow of the present invention comprises a cervical pillow 1 and a headrest 2 connected to the cervical pillow 1 for supporting the back of the head.

[0018] Support bodies 3 that can be horizontally rotated to adjust the distance are installed on both sides of the neck pillow 1, and the support bodies 3 are preferably elliptical. A trapezoidal fixed bracket 5 is installed inside the neck pillow 1. The left and right ends of the fixed bracket 5 are connected to the support body 3 through a spherical joint. The support body can rotate around the spherical joint to change the distance between the two support bodies, and the two support bodies can be slightly tilted to the left and right respectively to adapt to the requirements of different neck circumferences and fix the cervical spine.

[0019] The front end of the fixed bracket 5 is connected to a plurality of ball joint connecting rods 6, which extend to the inside of the headrest 2. The headrest 2 can be adjusted by shaking it back and forth to facilitate the patient to adjust to the most suitable and comfortable position. The ball joint connection of the ball joint connecting rod 6 is designed to be a non-smooth spherical surface, which has a certain damping feeling. The headrest 2 can only be shaken back and forth under the action of a certain external force. The neck pillow 1 is in a slope shape with a low front and a high back. When the patient lies on his back, the position of the headrest 2 can be adjusted backward by the force of the head, and the position of the headrest 2 can also be adjusted forward by external force to meet the various position requirements of the patient.

[0020] An inflatable airbag 4 is connected to the side of the neck pillow 1 away from the headrest 2. After being inflated, the inflatable airbag can fill the gap between the neck and the neck pillow to better fix the cervical spine.

[0021] In order to further improve the comfort of patients using the adjustable postoperative cervical fixation pillow, the outer layers of the headrest 2 and the cervical pillow 1 are wrapped with memory foam, the outer surface of the support body 3 is also wrapped with memory foam, and the upper surface of the headrest 2 is detachably connected to an inflatable air pillow 7.

[0022] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
