Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular relates to a rib fracture nursing auxiliary fixation device. Background Art

[0002] Rib fractures refer to the breakage or laceration of the rib bones or shafts. This injury is usually caused by direct external force acting on the chest, such as car accidents, falls, or sports accidents. Rib fractures may bring some dangers and complications: When ribs are fractured, breathing may be affected, especially when taking a deep breath or coughing, you may feel severe pain, which may lead to difficulty breathing. At the same time, rib fractures need to be fixed. If the fracture is not minor or a single rib is fractured, simple fixation or no fixation may be required. However, when the patient has multiple rib fractures, good fixation is required. Because patients with multiple rib fractures lose the complete rib support and soften the local chest wall, abnormal respiratory movements may occur, called flail chest. If the softening range is large, the mediastinum will flutter left and right, affecting ventilation and venous blood return. In severe cases, respiratory and circulatory failure may occur. Therefore, good fixation is necessary.

[0003] However, currently, there are corresponding fixation devices; the current fixation devices use elastic bands to wrap around the patient's fracture site to fix it, preventing the broken ribs from moving back and forth with breathing, but simply tightening the fixation will cause the skin to be squeezed and fixed together with the ribs, and it cannot restrict the ribs while fixing the skin, preventing the softened part from following the movement.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] Example 1

[0022] The present invention discloses a rib fracture nursing auxiliary fixation device, comprising: a rib fracture nursing auxiliary fixation device, comprising: a back plate 1, a transmission device 2; the back plate 1 is a T-shaped structure, and arc plates 12 are movably installed in a linear array on the two side walls of the back plate 1, and the transmission device 2 is fixedly installed inside the back plate 1; the rotating shaft 25 on the transmission device 2 is connected to the arc plate 12, and the transmission device 2 controls the rotation of the hand to control the relative movement of the arc plate 12 to form a clamping effect on the ribs; the upper end of the back plate 1 is fixedly provided with a hanging plate 11, and the hanging plate 11 is in a telescopic fixed form;

[0023] A plurality of adsorption components 13 are installed in a linear array on the arc plate 12, and the adsorption components 13 include an adsorption head 131, a push rod 132, a fixing sleeve 133, an extrusion pore 151, and an adsorption pore 14; the arc plate 12 is a hollow structure, the fixing sleeve 133 is fixedly installed on the inner side wall of the arc plate 12, the pushing rod 132 is movably installed on the upper end of the fixing sleeve 133, and the other end of the pushing rod 132 extends out of the other side of the arc plate 12, and the end of the support is fixedly provided with the adsorption head 131; the inner bottom end of the fixing sleeve 133 is fixedly provided with a spring 136, and the end of the spring 136 A baffle 135 is installed, and a folding airbag 134 is arranged between the baffle 135 and the fixing sleeve 133; an internal extrusion tube 137 is arranged between the folding airbags 134 to communicate with each other, and the upper and lower arc-shaped plates 12 are connected through the internal extrusion tube 137; and the extrusion air hole 151 is connected to the folding airbag 134 to adjust the pressure of the folding airbag 134, so that the adsorption head 131 can be further contracted; the adsorption heads 131 are connected to each other through internal pipes, and the adsorption air holes 14 are connected to the pipes between the adsorption heads 131, and the adsorption air holes 14 and the extrusion air holes 151 can be connected to the external The air filling and deflation device of the part, and the adsorption air hole 14 and the extrusion air hole 151 can be replaced by an air valve head that can be inflated and deflated, which is convenient for inflation or deflation after use; the specific process is: by connecting the adsorption air hole 14 to an external negative pressure device, the adsorption head 131 can adsorb the patient's skin, and then inflate the inside through the extrusion air hole 151. When inflated, the folded air bag 134 expands, and when expanded, it will push the baffle 135 to move outward. At this time, the spring 136 is compressed, and the push rod 132 connected to the push plate will move outward, that is, drive the adsorption head 131 to move , achieving pulling of the skin; the adsorption air hole 14 is arranged at the upper end of the uppermost arc plate 12 and close to the back plate 1, and the extrusion air hole 151 is arranged on the externally interconnected extrusion airway 15; the adsorption air hole 14 is arranged at this position to be effectively hidden, so that the patient can lie on the bed when using it, but in view of the limitation of the back plate 1 in the present device, after wearing it, the thickness of the back plate 1 will still have an impact, therefore, it is necessary to pave the bed surface into a concave shape with a towel blanket, etc., so as to place the back plate 1, which is convenient for the patient's activities and will not cause discomfort to the patient.

[0024] In addition, in the present embodiment, the connecting tube connecting the folding airbag 134 and the adsorption head 131 can be connected separately or simultaneously; when connected simultaneously, one external connection hole can realize the adsorption of all the folding airbags 134 and the adsorption head 131, but it is necessary to fix the entire rib area for connection and adsorption, and when connected separately, multiple adsorption air holes 14 and extrusion air holes 151 are required, which takes up more space volume, but it can fix the fracture site of the patient in a targeted manner; and in actual conditions, the fracture of a rib is one or more on one side, so it is not necessary to adsorb all of them (referring to the patient without clothes), and a single setting can adsorb wherever it is broken, which is more versatile to use, so a separate connection is the better choice in the present embodiment.

[0025] At the same time, the adsorption head 131 is a conical hollow structure and is made of silicone material. The conical setting can increase the contact area to facilitate adsorption. At the same time, the silicone material can not only make the adsorption head 131 close to the patient's skin to achieve better sealing, but also effectively protect the patient's skin.
