Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to a head fixing device for children with hydrocephalus. Background Art

[0002] Hydrocephalus is a complex neurological disease, usually manifested as abnormal expansion of the ventricular system and / or the subarachnoid space. This expansion is caused by interference with the absorption, circulation or secretion of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain. There are many reasons for the occurrence of hydrocephalus, including but not limited to: congenital malformations, infection, hemorrhage, tumors, etc. Hydrocephalus occurs relatively more frequently in infancy. In medical treatment, the treatment of hydrocephalus mainly involves surgery to relieve obstruction and drain the fluid in the ventricles to reduce intracranial pressure.

[0003] During the operation for hydrocephalus, the patient needs to be cared for and protected. First, the patient's head is suspended and fixed. In the prior art, a pillow is usually used to support the head in the air and fit the patient's neck to facilitate the operation. However, in the prior art of pillow-fixed head operation, the patient's head generally has many tubes. During the operation, the tubes on both sides of the patient's scalp are very easy to bend to the head and the pillow support, resulting in loose tubes and obstruction of drug delivery. In addition, during the operation, the intraoperative flushing fluid and a small amount of bloody cerebrospinal fluid may irritate the ventricular wall of the hydrocephalus patient, especially the third ventricle. Stimulation of the bottom of the ventricle can easily cause a high fever in patients. The current treatment method is to place medical ice packs on both sides of the patient's head or on the shoulders and neck to reduce the patient's body temperature and reduce the damage to the patient's brain caused by the rapid increase in body temperature. However, during the operation, the medical ice pack is unstable and medical staff need to manually press the ice pack to fit the patient's skin surface, which is very time-consuming. In addition, the pillow pad of the prior art is adjusted in width by snap-fitting to accommodate patients with different head sizes, which is troublesome to operate and the snap-fitting adjustment is not flexible enough to achieve true fit to accommodate patients with different head sizes.

[0004] In summary, the problems existing in the head fixing device of the prior art are as follows:

[0005] 1. The head fixing device of the prior art uses a buckle-type method to adjust the width between the two pillows to accommodate patients with different head sizes. The adjustment is troublesome and cannot truly fit the patient's head size.

[0006] 2. The head fixation device of the prior art cannot manage the tubes on the patient's head, which causes the tubes to be easily bent between the patient's head and the pillow during the operation, causing the tubes to loosen and obstruct the drug delivery of the tubes;

[0007] 3. The existing head fixing device lacks a cooling device, and medical staff use hand-held ice packs to fit the patient's head skin to cool down, which wastes manpower;

[0008] Therefore, the present invention discloses a head fixing device for children with hydrocephalus to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0009] In order to solve the drawbacks of the prior art, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0014] Furthermore, the position limiting tube is an open hollow cylindrical tube, and an annular anti-slip pattern is arranged in an array inside the position limiting tube;

[0015] Furthermore, the pillow column is a hollow cylinder, a switch is arranged at the outer periphery of the rear of the pillow column to control the filling and discharge of the liquid inside the pillow column, a drug storage cartridge is arranged at the middle of the rear side of the pillow column, a release member is slidably installed inside the drug storage cartridge, a square plate is integrally formed at the lower part of the pillow column, protrusions are arranged at the front and rear sides of the square plate to be inserted into the slide groove, and a mounting hole is arranged in the middle of the square plate to connect the driving rod; a cover body is arranged at the rear of the drug storage cartridge, and a round hole is arranged in the middle of the cover body to install the release member;

[0016] Furthermore, circular plates are arranged at the front and rear ends of the release member, a cylinder is arranged in the middle of the circular plate, and an annular plate extends from the circular plate at the rear end. By opening the cover on the drug storage cartridge and pulling out the release member, ammonium nitrate particles are added into the drug storage cartridge.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0018] The present invention aims at the drawbacks of the head fixation device for children with hydrocephalus in the prior art, and discloses a head fixation device for children with hydrocephalus, comprising: a pillow pad, a driving rod, and a pillow column, wherein a triangular neck pad is arranged at the front of the pillow pad, a square groove is arranged in the middle of the pillow pad, pillow columns are symmetrically arranged inside the square groove, sliding grooves are arranged at the front and rear sides of the square groove, and a threaded hole penetrating the pillow pad is arranged in the middle of the square groove to install the driving rod; a limiting tube fixing pipeline is arranged in an array at both sides of the pillow pad;

[0019] The existing technology is used to install or directly lay the head fixing device for pediatric hydrocephalus patients on the operating table, and then the patient rests his neck on the triangular neck pad and his head on the pillow column, so that the head of the patient undergoing head hydrocephalus extraction is lifted, and the symmetrically arranged pillow columns can be driven to move closer or farther synchronously by rotating the driving rod, and the distance between the pillow columns can be adjusted to adapt to the head sizes of different patients, thereby solving the problem in the existing technology that the width between the two pillow pads is adjusted in a buckle-type manner to adapt to the patients with different head sizes, the adjustment is troublesome, and the head size of the patient cannot be truly fitted;

[0020] A pillow column and a limiting tube are provided. During the operation, the pipeline support used during the operation can be pressed and clamped into the limiting tube. The movement of the pipeline is limited by the anti-slip grooves provided in the limiting tube, which solves the problem that the pipeline on the patient's head cannot be managed surgically in the prior art, resulting in the pipeline being easily bent between the patient's head and the pillow during the operation, causing the pipeline to loosen and the pipeline drug delivery to be blocked;

[0021] In addition, in view of the problem that during the operation, there is a lack of cooling device, and medical staff use hand-held ice packs to fit the patient's head skin for cooling, which wastes manpower. In the present invention, the release piece is rotated to push the release piece forward, and the ammonium nitrate particles in the release piece come into contact with water in the pillow column. The ammonium nitrate particles dissolve in water and absorb a large amount of heat, thereby quickly cooling the patient's head. This solves the problem that in the prior art, there is a lack of cooling device, and medical staff use hand-held ice packs to fit the patient's head skin for cooling, which wastes manpower.

A drug storage cartridge 301 is arranged in the middle of the rear side of the pillow column 3, and a release member 5 is slidably installed inside the drug storage cartridge 301.

[0034] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention; it is obvious that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] like Figure 1The figure shows the overall structure of the head fixing device for children with hydrocephalus of the present invention. In the present invention, in order to ensure that the distance between the pillow posts 3 can be quickly and accurately adjusted according to different patients and heads of different sizes during the process of lifting and carrying the patient's head, the present invention provides a pillow pad 1, a pillow post 3 and a driving rod 4 for adjustment;

[0037] In this embodiment, a triangular neck pad 2 is arranged at the front of the pillow pad 1, a square groove 101 is arranged in the middle of the pillow pad 1, pillow posts 3 are symmetrically arranged inside the square groove 101, sliding grooves 1011 are arranged at the front and rear sides of the square groove 101, and a threaded hole 103 penetrating the pillow pad 1 is arranged in the middle of the square groove 101 to install the driving rod 4; and limiting tubes 102 are arranged in an array on both sides of the pillow pad 1 to fix the pipeline;

[0038] In this embodiment, a square plate 302 is provided at the lower end of the pillow column 3, and protrusions are provided on the front and rear sides of the square plate 302 to be slidably installed in the slide groove 1011 on the pillow pad 1. A mounting hole 303 is provided in the middle of the square plate 302 to be threadedly connected to the driving rod 4. The threads in the mounting holes 303 on the symmetrically arranged pillow columns 3 have opposite rotation directions and the same pitch.

[0039] In this embodiment, two pillow posts 3 are symmetrically arranged on the pillow pad 1, and the pillow posts 3 are clamped by a slide groove 1011. A threaded hole 103 is opened in the middle of the pillow pad 1 to connect the drive rod 4. The threaded hole 103 on the pillow pad 1 is a flat threaded hole 103.

[0040] In this embodiment, the driving member is a threaded rod with a handle at one end, and the threads on the driving member are symmetrically arranged, with the threads on both sides having opposite rotation directions and the same pitch;

[0041] During actual use, the patient lies flat with his neck fitting on the neck pad 2 and his head resting on the symmetrically arranged pillow posts 3. The driving member is manually controlled to rotate in situ, driving the pillow posts 3 to move closer to or away from each other to adjust the distance between the pillow posts 3 to adapt to patients with different head sizes. This solves the problem in the prior art that the width between the two pillow pads 1 is adjusted by snap-fitting to adapt to patients with different head sizes, which is troublesome to adjust and cannot truly fit the patient's head size.

[0042] Example 2

[0043] like Figure 4 The figure is a partially enlarged structural diagram of a pillow pad 1 of a head fixing device for a child with hydrocephalus according to the present invention; in the present invention, a pillow pad 1 is provided, and a plurality of position limiting tubes 102 are symmetrically arranged in an array on both sides of the pillow pad 1, and the position limiting tubes 102 are open hollow cylindrical tubes, and an annular anti-slipping pattern 1021 is arranged in an array inside the position limiting tubes 102;

[0044] In actual use, during the operation, the pipeline that needs to be fixed on the patient's head can be pressed and clamped into the limiting tube 102, and the anti-slip groove 1021 inside the limiting tube 102 limits the up and down movement of the pipeline, thereby avoiding the problem in the prior art that the pipeline on the patient's head cannot be converged and managed, resulting in the pipeline easily bending between the patient's head and the pillow 1 during the operation, causing the pipeline to loosen and the drug delivery of the pipeline to be blocked.

[0045] Example 3

[0046] In this embodiment, in view of the prior art, during the hydrocephalus removal surgery for children, it is easy to cause fever in the patient, and the current solution is to place a medical ice pack on both sides of the patient's head or on the shoulders and neck to reduce the patient's body temperature and reduce the damage to the patient's brain caused by the rapid increase in body temperature. However, during the operation, the medical ice pack is unstable, and the medical staff needs to manually press the ice pack to fit the patient's skin surface, which is a great waste of manpower and material resources; therefore, in the present invention, a pillow column 3 is provided, and the pillow column 3 is a hollow cylinder, a switch is arranged at the outer periphery of the rear of the pillow column 3 to control the filling and discharge of the liquid inside the pillow column 3, a drug storage cartridge 301 is arranged at the middle of the rear side of the pillow column 3, a release member 5 is slidably installed inside the drug storage cartridge 301, a square plate 302 is integrally formed at the lower part of the pillow column 3, protrusions 3021 are arranged at the front and rear sides of the square plate 302 to be inserted into the slide groove 1011, and a mounting hole 303 is arranged in the middle of the square plate 302 to connect the driving rod 4; a cover body is arranged at the rear of the drug storage cartridge 301, and a round hole is arranged in the middle of the cover body to install the release member 5;

[0047] In actual use, water is added to the pillow column 3 and ammonium nitrate particles are added to the medicine storage cylinder 301 during preoperative preparation. When the patient develops fever symptoms during the operation, the release member 5 in the liquid storage cylinder is pushed forward to make the ammonium nitrate particles in the release member 5 contact with water. The ammonium nitrate particles dissolve in water and absorb a large amount of heat to quickly cool the patient's head. This solves the problem in the prior art that there is a lack of cooling device and medical staff use hand-held ice packs to fit the patient's head skin for cooling, which wastes manpower.

[0048] In summary, the present invention aims at the drawbacks of the head fixation device for pediatric hydrocephalus patients in the prior art, and discloses a head fixation device for pediatric hydrocephalus patients, comprising: a pillow pad 1, a driving rod 4, and a pillow column 3. A triangular neck pad 2 is arranged at the front of the pillow pad 1, a square groove 101 is provided in the middle of the pillow pad 1, and the pillow columns 3 are symmetrically arranged inside the square groove 101. Slide grooves 1011 are provided at the front and rear sides of the square groove 101, and a threaded hole 103 penetrating the pillow pad 1 is provided in the middle of the square groove 101 to install the driving rod 4; and limiting tubes 102 are arranged in an array on both sides of the pillow pad 1 to fix the pipeline;

[0049] The head fixing device for pediatric hydrocephalus patients is installed or directly placed flat on the operating table by using the existing technology, and then the patient rests his neck on the triangular neck pad 2 and his head on the pillow column 3, so that the head of the patient undergoing head hydrocephalus extraction is lifted, and the symmetrically arranged pillow columns 3 can be driven to move closer or farther synchronously by rotating the driving rod 4, and the distance between the pillow columns 3 can be adjusted to adapt to the head sizes of different patients, thereby solving the problem that the width between the two pillow pads 1 is adjusted by snap-fitting to adapt to the patients with different head sizes in the existing technology, which is troublesome to adjust and cannot be truly fitted to the patient's head size;

[0050] A pillow column 3 and a limiting tube 102 are provided. During the operation, the pipeline support used during the operation can be pressed and clamped into the limiting tube 102. The movement of the catheter can be limited by the anti-slip groove 1021 provided in the limiting tube 102, so as to solve the problem that the pipeline on the patient's head cannot be managed surgically in the prior art, resulting in the pipeline being easily bent between the patient's head and the pillow pad 1 during the operation, causing the pipeline to loosen and the pipeline drug delivery to be blocked;

[0051] In addition, in view of the problem that during the operation, there is a lack of cooling device, and medical staff use hand-held ice packs to fit the patient's head skin for cooling, which wastes manpower. In the present invention, the release member 5 is rotated to push the release member 5 forward, and the ammonium nitrate particles in the release member 5 come into contact with the water in the pillow column 3. The ammonium nitrate particles dissolve in water and absorb a large amount of heat, thereby quickly cooling the patient's head. This solves the problem that in the prior art, there is a lack of cooling device, and medical staff use hand-held ice packs to fit the patient's head skin for cooling, which wastes manpower.
