Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular relates to a thoracolumbar vertebrae fixation brace. Background Art

[0002] Thoracolumbar fixation braces are auxiliary fixation medical tools worn by patients with thoracolumbar injuries after surgery. They play a very important role in the patient's postoperative recovery. Most existing thoracolumbar fixation braces are made of one-piece rigid plates. They support and fix the patient's affected area by surrounding the patient's torso over a large area. The tightness of the brace is difficult to adjust. Thoracolumbar postoperative wounds are usually accompanied by symptoms such as swelling and fever. During the recovery process, as the wound changes, the swelling degree and limb temperature of the affected limb will also change. Since the tightness of the brace is difficult to adjust, the brace tends to become loose after the wound swelling subsides, and the brace becomes tighter as the wound swelling increases. If the tightness of the brace cannot be adjusted in time according to the changes in the affected limb, it will affect the surgical effect and the postoperative rehabilitation process: if the brace is too tight, it will affect the blood return of the limb and cause swelling of the limb distal to the brace. If the compression cannot be relieved in time, the tissue edema will continue to worsen and cause necrosis of the muscle, blood vessels and nerves; if the brace is too loose, it cannot effectively fix the patient and cannot create stable conditions for wound healing. In severe cases, it may even cause increased inflammation, collision and friction leading to severe pain, muscle atrophy, etc. During the use of existing thoracolumbar braces, the affected limb will be wrapped by the brace and cannot be disassembled at will. The tightness of the brace cannot be adjusted in time, affecting the patient's comfort. Summary of the invention

[0041] The present invention provides a modular intelligent monitoring thoracolumbar adjustable brace with pressure sensing and temperature sensing, which solves the problem that the affected limb cannot be monitored in real time after wearing the brace, and can send out an alarm signal when the brace is too tight, too loose, or the temperature of the affected limb is abnormal, and timely adjust the brace fixation state by means of airbag inflation and deflation, so as to realize 24-hour real-time monitoring of the healing and change of the postoperative wound of the thoracolumbar spine. The specific working principle is as follows:

[0042] (1) Sensor detection: First, it is necessary to integrate pressure and temperature sensors into the thoracolumbar fixation brace to monitor information such as the pressure between the brace and the thoracolumbar spine.

[0043] (2) Data processing: The data collected by the sensor is sent to the control module 3, which analyzes the patient's condition to determine whether to inflate or deflate.

[0044] (3) Inflation control: Once the control module 3 determines that inflation is needed to provide additional support or stability, it will send a signal to the inflation and deflation device to increase the gas pressure in the brace.

[0045] (4) Deflation control: When the patient needs to reduce support or release pressure, the control module 3 will send a signal to the inflation and deflation device to reduce the gas pressure in the brace.

[0046] (5) Feedback and adjustment: The control module 3 has a feedback mechanism that can adjust the degree of inflation and deflation according to the patient's response and the doctor's instructions to ensure that optimal support and comfort are provided.

[0047] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0048] (1) Personalized support: Each airbag can provide personalized support based on the patient's specific needs and activity level. By adjusting the inflation level of the airbag, the brace can provide appropriate support and stability to help patients perform daily activities comfortably.

[0049] (2) Dynamic adjustment: The inflation level of each airbag can be adjusted in real time according to the patient's posture and activity. This dynamic adjustment ensures that the brace always maintains the best support effect, whether at rest or during activity.

[0050] (3) Improved treatment effect: Each airbag can help treat thoracic and lumbar spine diseases and injuries by providing customized support and promoting the recovery process.

[0051] (4) Enhanced comfort: Each airbag can adjust the inflation state of the brace according to the patient's comfort needs. This personalized adjustment can improve the patient's comfort, reduce discomfort, and enhance the patient's desire and ability to wear the brace.

[0052] (5) Monitoring function: Each airbag is integrated with a sensor that can monitor the patient's information. This monitoring function can provide important data to help doctors understand the recovery status.

[0053] (6) The present invention avoids the shortcomings of existing thoracolumbar braces, such as the inability to standardize the tightness of the brace during wearing, resulting in poor wearing comfort and inability to ensure the fixation effect. For example, if the brace is too tight, the patient will feel uncomfortable wearing it, which may affect the blood circulation of the affected limb; if the straps are too loose, the brace cannot be effectively fixed, which may affect the surgical treatment effect and slow down the recovery process.
