Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of premature infant care, and in particular to a premature infant multi-sensory stimulation care device. Background Art

[0002] Because the various organ systems and functions of premature infants are not fully developed, they generally need to grow or be treated in the NICU (neonatal intensive care unit) for a period of time after birth. This period happens to be the critical period for the rapid development of the brain of premature infants. On the one hand, premature infants are separated from the familiar maternal uterine environment, such as the sense of uterine boundaries, the sound of amniotic fluid, and the mother's verbal comfort. The special monitoring environment of the NICU also greatly limits the sensory stimulation such as care and caress provided by the mothers and relatives of premature infants to premature infants. Medical staff are also unable to provide more and longer sensory stimulation due to the nature and content of their work, causing premature infants to lose a variety of normal sensory stimulations during the critical period of brain development. On the other hand, environmental stimulations such as medical operation touch and pain, olfactory stimulation of disinfectants, instruments and non-verbal noises received by premature infants in the NICU will bring adverse sensory experiences to premature infants and affect their physical and mental development. Therefore, during the period of premature infants' hospitalization in the NICU, it is particularly important to reduce inappropriate or harmful sensory stimulations, increase appropriate and positive sensory experiences, and promote or improve the all-round sensory experience and healthy brain development of premature infants.

[0003] Multisensory stimulation was originally developed for children and adults with intellectual and sensory disabilities, and has been introduced in recent years to promote the neurodevelopment of premature infants. Multisensory stimulation for premature infants refers to a series of intervention measures that stimulate two or more senses, such as hearing, touch, and vision, for premature infants at the same time. Domestic and foreign studies have confirmed that multisensory stimulation for premature infants can promote the development of premature infants' nervous and sensory systems, relieve pain in premature infants, maintain the stability of blood pressure, heart rate, and blood oxygen saturation, improve the sleep-wake behavior of premature infants, and promote the comprehensive physical and mental development of premature infants in the long term. Existing studies have proposed several clinical implementation plans for multisensory stimulation. The more classic plan is to conduct auditory, tactile, and visual stimulation three times a day for 15-20 minutes each time, followed by 5 minutes of vestibular stimulation. At present, there is no nursing device that can provide multisensory stimulation, and it is impossible to provide multi-directional sensory stimulation to infants.

After the second transmission wheel 503 rotates, it drives the second transmission shaft 504 coaxial with it to rotate. After the second transmission shaft 504 rotates, it drives the first gear 505 on its periphery to rotate. After the first gear 505 rotates, it drives the second gear 506 meshing with it to rotate. After the second gear 506 rotates, it drives the third transmission shaft 507 above it to rotate. After the third transmission shaft 507 rotates, it drives the third transmission wheel 508 on its periphery to rotate. After the third transmission wheel 508 rotates, it drives the fourth transmission wheel 510 on its side to rotate through the second transmission belt 509.
