Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical auxiliary equipment, and in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine orthopedic splint and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the medical field, suitable fixation devices play a vital role in the treatment and rehabilitation of plantar fractures. Currently, most of the plantar fracture fixation splints commonly used in clinical practice are made of relatively hard materials, such as plaster, etc. Although this fixation method can provide stable support to a certain extent and help the fracture site to be repositioned and healed, it has obvious disadvantages.

[0003] After plaster fixation, the patient's foot is completely wrapped and lacks flexibility. During the fixation period, the patient can hardly perform any joint activities, which not only leads to complications such as joint stiffness and muscle atrophy, but also seriously affects the patient's quality of daily life; and each patient needs to be molded separately, which takes a long time to make; during the wearing process, the air permeability is usually poor, especially after wearing for a long time, the sole of the foot is prone to sweating, forming a humid environment, which provides a breeding ground for bacteria and increases the risk of skin infection in patients, such as tinea pedis, eczema and other skin diseases; during the treatment of fractures, the fracture site needs to be regularly changed for dressings and other treatments. For patients who use plaster fixation, the plaster needs to be removed each time the medicine is applied, which is not only cumbersome to operate and increases the workload of medical staff, but the frequent removal and re-fixation of the plaster may also affect the stability of the fracture.

[0016] A method for using a traditional Chinese medicine orthopedic splint, applied to any one of the traditional Chinese medicine orthopedic splints described above, comprises the following steps:

[0017] Step 1: First, according to the patient's foot length, turn the damping knob 2 to adjust the distance between the heel panels and the front panels at both ends so that the foot bone splint fits the patient's foot length;

[0018] Step 2: Install the upper cover plate on the upper end of the front panel, and install the Y-shaped air inlet pipe on the right end of the one-way air valve, and press the airbag until the upper and lower airbags fit with the upper and lower ends of the patient's toes;

[0019] Step 3: Tie Velcro strap 2 to the front of the patient's ankle, and tie Velcro strap 1 to the outer periphery of the patient's calf, turn damping knob 1, adjust the inclination angle of the fixed rod to adjust the angle between the patient's foot and calf, and squeeze the airbag through the pressure plate to make the arch airbag fit the patient's arch.

[0020] The invention provides a traditional Chinese medicine orthopedic splint and a method of using the same, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] 1. By designing a set of special metatarsal bone splints for the metatarsal bones, when the patient's metatarsal bone is fractured, the fractured part of the patient's metatarsal bone can be quickly fixed, and it is convenient for the patient and medical staff to observe the recovery of the fractured part. It will not cause the fractured part of the patient's metatarsal bone to be stuffy, improve the patient's comfort, and facilitate the patient's later recovery.

[0022] 2. When using a metatarsal bone splint to fix the fractured metatarsal bone of a patient, first, turn the damping knob 2 to drive the U-shaped plates on both sides to slide out and move away from each other inside the sliding bin through the gear 4 and the teeth on the inner side of the U-shaped plate, thereby driving the heel panel and the front panel to move away from each other until they are adjusted to a suitable size for the patient's foot. Then, stop turning the damping knob 2. By providing a component that can adjust the distance between the heel panel and the front panel, the metatarsal bone splint can be suitable for the metatarsal bones of different patients, thereby achieving the versatility of the metatarsal bone splint.

[0023] 3. After adjusting the distance between the heel panel and the front panel, place the heel panel on the patient's heel and make the front panel located at the front end of the patient's sole. Take out the upper cover plate, align the spine with the inside of the limiting slide and insert it until the lower airbag and the upper airbag are initially fitted with the front of the patient's sole and the front of the instep and then stop. At the same time, the spring rod squeezes the limiting rod to drive the lower end of the ratchet to engage with the periphery of the spine, so that the spine cannot be pulled out from the inside of the limiting slide. After the patient's fracture recovers in the later stage, it is only necessary to press the limiting rod to disengage the ratchet from the spine and then remove the upper cover plate. By setting a set of limiting components that are easy to install and remove, the front end of the patient's sole can be quickly limited when the patient's foot is fractured, and it is easy to remove after the patient recovers in the later stage.

[0024] 4. After initially limiting the front end of the patient's foot, the left end of the Y-shaped air inlet pipe is mounted on the right end of the one-way air valve at the upper and lower ends, and the inflatable bag is pressed. Since the sealing cover blocks the front and rear end openings of the exhaust pipe, the gas enters the one-way air inlet tee and the Y-shaped air inlet pipe, and then enters the upper air bag and the lower air bag through the air inlet elbow. The upper air bag and the lower air bag are inflated, so that the lower air bag and the upper air bag press the front end of the patient's foot, thereby making the front end of the patient's foot unable to move easily, and the fixation effect is better. After the patient's fracture recovers in the later stage, press the buttons on both sides to discharge the gas from the upper and lower ends of the sealing cover and the front and rear ends of the exhaust pipe, which can be quickly deflated. By arranging the lower air bag and the upper air bag inside the front panel and the upper cover plate, the front end of the patient's foot is firmly fixed in the early stage, and the deflation is simple and quick after the patient recovers in the later stage, which is convenient for removing the foot bone splint.

[0025] 5. After fixing the front end of the patient's foot, connect the two Velcro straps on both sides and tie them to the front end of the patient's ankle, adjust the angle of the patient's calf and foot, so that the patient's foot is in a relaxed state, and turn the damping knob one, drive the gear one to rotate through the gear two, and then drive the fixing rod to rotate through the shaft until it fits with the back of the patient's calf, and then tie the Velcro strap one to fix the angle of the patient's ankle. By setting a fixing rod that can adjust the angle, the patient's ankle can be in a relaxed state, and the rotation angle of the patient's ankle can be fixed, which is convenient for the patient's rehabilitation and can be suitable for different patients, further making the patient more comfortable when using the foot bone splint.

[0026] 6. When gear 2 drives gear 1 to rotate, gear 2 synchronously drives gear 3 to rotate, and then drives the pull rod to rotate through the rotating rod, and cooperates with the rotating ear 1 to drive the pressure plate to squeeze the control airbag, so that the gas inside the control airbag enters the arch airbag through the connecting tube, so that when the patient's foot adjusts the angle, the arch part can be effectively fixed, and the fracture of the patient's foot can be effectively limited, which is beneficial to the recovery of the fracture of the patient's foot.

[0041] Specifically, when using the metatarsal bone splint 1 to fix the fractured metatarsal bone of the patient, first, turn the damping knob 2 1022, and drive the U-shaped plates 1023 on both sides to slide out and move away from each other inside the sliding bin 1020 through the gear 4 1021 and the toothed opening 1024 on the inner side of the U-shaped plate 1023, thereby driving the heel panel 101 and the front panel 1025 to move away from each other, until they are adjusted to a suitable size for the patient's foot, then stop turning the damping knob 2 1022, and by providing a component that can adjust the distance between the heel panel 101 and the front panel 1025, the metatarsal bone splint 1 can be suitable for the metatarsal bones of different patients, thereby achieving the versatility of the metatarsal bone splint 1, and after adjusting the distance between the heel panel 101 and the front panel 1025, the heel panel 101 is placed on the patient's heel, and the front panel 1025 is adjusted. The enclosure 1025 is located at the front end of the sole of the patient's foot. The upper cover 1041 is taken out, and the spine 1027 is aligned with the inside of the limiting slide 1026 and inserted until the lower air bag 1033 and the upper air bag 1032 are initially fitted with the front part of the sole and the front part of the instep of the patient and then stop. At the same time, the spring rod 1029 squeezes the limiting rod 1030 to drive the lower end of the ratchet 1031 to engage with the periphery of the spine 1027, so that the spine 1027 cannot be pulled out from the inside of the limiting slide 1026. After the patient's fracture recovers in the later stage, it is only necessary to press the limiting rod 1030 to disengage the ratchet 1031 from the spine 1027, and the upper cover 1041 can be removed. By setting a set of limiting components that are easy to install and remove, the front end of the patient's sole can be quickly limited when the patient's foot is fractured, and it is easy to remove after the patient recovers in the later stage.

[0042] In this embodiment, the lower end of the upper cover plate 1041 is fixedly connected with the upper airbag 1032, the inner bottom wall of the front panel 1025 is fixedly connected with the lower airbag 1033, the middle part of the upper end of the upper cover plate 1041 and the middle part of the lower end of the front panel 1025 are fixedly connected with the intake bend pipe 1034, the middle openings of the front and rear sides of the intake bend pipe 1034 are fixedly connected with the exhaust pipe 1035, the inside of the exhaust pipe 1035 is fixedly connected with the limiting spring 1036, the end of the limiting spring 1036 away from the intake bend pipe 1034 is fixedly connected with the sealing cover 1037, the end of the sealing cover 1037 away from the limiting spring 1036 is fixedly connected with the button 1038, and the right end of the intake bend pipe 1034 is fixedly connected with the one-way air valve 1039.

[0050] Specifically, when gear two 109 drives gear one 108 to rotate, gear two 109 synchronously drives gear three 1012 to rotate, and then drives pull rod 1014 to rotate through rotating rod 1013, and cooperates with rotating ear one 1016 to drive pressure plate 1015 to squeeze control airbag 1017, so that the gas inside control airbag 1017 enters the arch airbag 1019 through connecting tube 1018, so that when the patient's foot is adjusted in angle, the arch part can be effectively fixed, and the fracture of the patient's foot can be effectively limited, which is beneficial to the recovery of the fracture of the patient's foot.

[0051] A method for using a traditional Chinese medicine orthopedic splint, applied to any one of the above-mentioned traditional Chinese medicine orthopedic splints, comprises the following steps:

[0052] Step 1: First, according to the patient's foot length, turn the damping knob 1022 to adjust the distance between the heel panels 101 and the front panels 1025 at both ends, so that the foot bone splint 1 fits the patient's foot length;

[0053] Step 2: Install the upper cover plate 1041 on the upper end of the front panel 1025, and install the Y-shaped air intake pipe 2 on the right end of the one-way air valve 1039, and press the inflatable bag 4 until the upper air bag 1032 and the lower air bag 1033 fit the upper and lower ends of the patient's toes;

[0054] Step 3: Tie Velcro strap 2 1040 to the front of the patient's ankle, and tie Velcro strap 1 107 to the periphery of the patient's calf, turn damping knob 1011, adjust the inclination angle of the fixing rod 106 to adjust the angle between the patient's sole and calf, and squeeze the control airbag 1017 through the pressure plate 1015 to make the arch airbag 1019 fit the patient's arch.

[0055] Specifically, the present invention designs a set of metatarsal bone splints 1 specially designed for the metatarsal bones. When a patient has a metatarsal bone fracture, the fractured part of the patient's metatarsal bone can be quickly fixed, and it is convenient for the patient and medical staff to observe the recovery of the fractured part. It will not cause the fractured part of the patient's metatarsal bone to be stuffy, thereby improving the patient's comfort and facilitating the patient's later recovery.

[0056] Working principle: When using the metatarsal bone splint 1 to fix the fractured metatarsal bone of the patient, first, turn the damping knob 2 1022, and drive the U-shaped plates 1023 on both sides to slide out and move away from each other inside the sliding bin 1020 through the gear 4 1021 and the toothed opening 1024 on the inner side of the U-shaped plate 1023, thereby driving the heel panel 101 and the front panel 1025 to move away from each other, until they are adjusted to a suitable size for the patient's foot, then stop turning the damping knob 2 1022, and by providing a component that can adjust the distance between the heel panel 101 and the front panel 1025, the metatarsal bone splint 1 can be suitable for the metatarsal bones of different patients, thereby achieving the versatility of the metatarsal bone splint 1, and after adjusting the distance between the heel panel 101 and the front panel 1025, the heel panel 101 and the front panel 1025 are moved. The plate 101 is placed on the heel of the patient, and the front panel 1025 is located at the front end of the sole of the patient's foot. The upper cover plate 1041 is taken out, and the spine 1027 is aligned with the inside of the limiting slide groove 1026 and inserted until the lower air bag 1033 and the upper air bag 1032 are initially fitted with the front part of the sole and the front part of the instep of the patient and then stop. At the same time, the spring rod 1029 squeezes the limiting rod 1030 to drive the lower end of the pawl 1031 to bite with the periphery of the spine 1027, so that the spine 1027 cannot be pulled out from the inside of the limiting slide groove 1026. After the patient's fracture recovers in the later stage, it is only necessary to press the limiting rod 1030 to disengage the pawl 1031 from the spine 1027, and the upper cover plate 1041 can be removed. By setting a set of limiting components that are easy to install and remove, the upper cover plate 1041 can be removed from the patient's foot. When a metacarpal fracture occurs, the front end of the patient's sole can be quickly limited, and it is easy to remove after the patient recovers. After the front end of the patient's sole is initially limited, the left end of the Y-shaped air inlet pipe 2 is sleeved on the right end of the one-way air valve 1039 at the upper and lower ends, and the inflation bag 4 is pressed. Since the sealing cover 1037 blocks the front and rear end openings of the exhaust pipe 1035, the gas enters the one-way air inlet tee 3 and the Y-shaped air inlet pipe 2. The gas enters the one-way air valve 1039, and then enters the upper air bag 1032 and the lower air bag 1033 through the air inlet bend 1034, and the upper air bag 1032 and the lower air bag 1033 are inflated, so that the lower air bag 1033 and the upper air bag 1032 press on the front end of the patient's sole, thereby preventing the front end of the patient's sole from moving easily, and the fixation effect is better. , press the buttons 1038 on both sides to discharge the gas from the upper and lower ends of the sealing cover 1037 and the front and rear ends of the exhaust pipe 1035, and the gas can be quickly deflated. By arranging the lower airbag 1033 and the upper airbag 1032 inside the front panel 1025 and the upper cover plate 1041, the front end of the patient's sole is firmly fixed in the early stage, and the deflation is simple and quick after the patient recovers in the later stage, which is convenient for removing the sole bone splint 1. After fixing the front end of the patient's sole, connect the Velcro straps 1040 on both sides to the front end of the patient's ankle, adjust the angle of the patient's calf and sole, so that the patient's sole is in a relaxed state, and turn the damping knob 1011, drive the gear 108 to rotate through the gear 2 109, and then drive the fixing rod 106 to rotate through the rotating shaft 105.Until it fits with the back of the patient's calf, then tie the Velcro strap 107 to fix the angle of the patient's ankle. By setting a fixing rod 106 that can adjust the angle, the patient's ankle can be in a relaxed state, and the rotation angle of the patient's ankle can be fixed, which is convenient for the patient's rehabilitation and can be suitable for different patients, further making the patient more comfortable when using the foot bone splint 1. When the gear 2 109 drives the gear 1 108 to rotate, the gear 2 109 synchronously drives the gear 3 1012 to rotate, and then drives the pull rod 1014 to rotate through the rotating rod 1013, and cooperates with the rotating ear 1016 to drive the pressing plate 1015 to squeeze the control airbag 1017, so that the gas inside the control airbag 1017 enters the inside of the arch airbag 1019 through the connecting pipe 1018, so that when the patient's foot is adjusted in angle, the arch part of the foot can be effectively fixed, and the fracture of the patient's foot can be effectively limited, which is conducive to the recovery of the fracture of the patient's foot.
