Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to medical aesthetics auxiliary equipment technology, and in particular to a diabetic foot wound measuring device. Background Art
[0002] Diabetes is a common chronic metabolic disease. Diabetic foot, a serious complication of diabetes, is characterized by foot ulcers, infections, and even gangrene. The incidence of diabetic foot is increasing globally, placing a heavy burden on patients and healthcare systems.
[0003] Accurately measuring diabetic foot wounds is crucial for effective treatment and monitoring of wound healing. Precisely understanding wound size, depth, and area can help physicians develop appropriate treatment plans, assess treatment effectiveness, and predict patient outcomes. For example, larger wounds may require more intensive debridement and dressing changes, while deep, penetrating wounds require careful inspection for potential tissue damage.
[0004] However, current measurement methods for diabetic foot wounds have many limitations. Traditional manual measurement methods, such as using a ruler or caliper, are highly dependent on the operator's experience and skills. Due to the irregular shape of the wound, the measurement results are often inaccurate. In addition, the manual measurement process is time-consuming and may cause discomfort to the patient during the measurement process. Some imaging-based measurement methods, such as X-ray and CT, although they can provide some information about the internal structure of the wound, are not suitable for real-time and repeated measurements of the wound surface due to their high cost, radiation hazards, and the need for complex equipment. Ultrasound-based measurement methods also face challenges in accurately measuring the irregular boundaries of diabetic foot wounds.
[0005] In view of the above-mentioned problems existing in the current diabetic foot wound measurement, there is an urgent need for a new, accurate, convenient and non-invasive measurement device to improve the accuracy and efficiency of wound measurement and provide better support for the diagnosis and treatment of diabetic foot.

[0041] The depth measuring mechanism includes a mounting ring 2024, an observation plate 3, and a marking rod; the mounting ring 2024 is movably mounted on the lower portion of the support rod 1, and an annular groove 401 is provided in the middle of the outer wall of the mounting ring 2024 for movably connecting to the observation plate 3; the observation plate 3 is slidably connected to the support rod 1, and a clamping head 3001 is provided at the lower portion of the observation plate 3 for rotatably connecting to the mounting ring 2024; a chute 301 is provided in the middle of the observation plate 3, an elastic element 303 is provided at the top of the chute 301 for connecting to the marking rod, and a scale line 302 is provided on the wall of the observation plate 3 on one side of the chute 301;

[0043] Furthermore, the trackpad 2 has a built-in calculation module to automatically calculate the motion trajectory of the stylus 201 displayed on the stylus after the stylus 201 moves.
[0044] In this embodiment, one end of the telescopic rod 2021 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the mounting ring 202, and the other end is rotatably connected to the middle of the stylus 201;

[0047] In this embodiment, the lower end of the marking pen 3041 is flush with the lower end surface of the observation plate 3, and a diamond plate 304 is provided on the upper end of the marking pen 3041 to facilitate observation of the movement trajectory of the marking pen 3041;
[0048] How to operate
[0049] The medical staff holds the support rod 1, with the lower end of the support rod 1 touching the skin at the edge of the wound, and gently places the lower end of the soft stylus of the stylus 201 on one end of the wound edge as a starting point. At this time, the upper end of the stylus 201 should maintain good contact with the track touch screen 2001 at the lower end of the trackpad 2.
[0050] Then, slowly and steadily move the stylus 201 along the contour of the wound, ensuring that the lower soft stylus of the stylus 201 is always in contact with the wound edge. During this movement, the upper end of the stylus 201 plots a real-time motion trajectory on the trackpad 2001. The calculation module within the trackpad 2 automatically calculates the wound length and other information based on the stylus 201's motion trajectory and displays it in real time in the display area of the trackpad 2. For example, when measuring an irregularly shaped wound, medical personnel can flexibly adjust the angle of the telescopic rod 2021 by rotating the mounting ring 202, ensuring that the stylus 201 closely conforms to the various curves of the wound, ensuring accurate measurement.
[0051] Rotate the mounting ring 2024 of the depth measurement mechanism so that the observation plate 3 and the marking rod move downward as the mounting ring 2024 rotates. Slowly move the lower end of the observation plate 3 and the lower end of the marking rod closer to the wound surface until the lower end of the observation plate 3 is flush with the skin around the wound. Then gently press the marking rod to make it move downward, overcoming the resistance of the elastic element 303. Stop pressing when the lower end of the marking rod touches the bottom of the wound. At this time, the value of the scale line 302 on the observation plate 3 corresponding to the diamond plate 304 at the upper end of the marking rod is the depth of the wound. Due to the shape design of the diamond plate 304, medical staff can clearly observe the corresponding scale value from different angles, which facilitates and accurately reads the wound depth data. For example, for deeper wounds, medical staff can fine-tune the position of the mounting ring 2024 to more accurately align the observation plate 3 and the marking rod with the center of the wound for depth measurement.
[0052] In summary, the present invention discloses a diabetic foot wound measurement device, comprising: a support rod 1, a depth measurement mechanism, and a length measurement mechanism; the length measurement mechanism is provided; a stylus 201 is manually moved along the edge of the wound, and during the movement, the upper end of the stylus 201 plots the wound length in real time and in proportion on a track touch screen 2001 on a track board 2, and a built-in calculation module can automatically and accurately calculate the wound length based on the track; the device facilitates medical personnel to perform measurement operations according to the contour of the wound, effectively avoids errors caused by irregular wound shapes in traditional manual measurement, greatly improves measurement accuracy, and provides doctors with more reliable wound size information; the device solves the technical problems in the prior art that manual measurement is time-consuming and prone to errors, and that other equipment causes certain damage to the wound, and is suitable for accurate measurement;
[0053] A depth measuring mechanism is set up; by rotating the mounting ring 2024, the marking pen 3041 and the lower end of the observation plate 3 are driven to fit the wound surface, and then the marking rod is pressed. When the marking rod moves to the bottom of the wound, the scale corresponding to the diamond plate 304 is the wound depth. In the present invention, the wound depth can be accurately measured through the scale line 302 on the observation plate 3 and the cooperation with the marking rod, which is convenient and intuitive to read the wound depth value, and the diamond plate 304 at the upper end of the marking rod is convenient for medical staff to clearly observe its movement trajectory, further ensuring the accuracy of the depth measurement.
