Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of auxiliary gastric lavage devices, and particularly to an emergency gastric lavage nursing auxiliary device. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of emergency medicine, cases of accidental poisoning by patients occur frequently, becoming a critical issue that urgently needs to be properly handled in emergency work. Timely and effective gastric lavage after accidental poisoning plays a crucial role in removing the poison from the stomach, reducing its absorption, alleviating poisoning symptoms, and improving the patient's survival rate and quality of recovery.

[0003] Currently, traditional gastric lavage methods have certain limitations in actual emergency gastric lavage procedures. When rinsing a patient's stomach, existing techniques primarily rely on injecting lavage fluid into the stomach through a tube, followed by suctioning out the stomach contents using negative pressure. However, this conventional method can only effectively clean toxins from the stomach's surface. Due to the complex anatomical structure of the human stomach, with its numerous folds, toxins can hide within these folds, making it difficult to thoroughly flush them out. This significantly reduces the effectiveness of gastric lavage, failing to completely remove toxins from the stomach and potentially affecting the patient's treatment outcome and prognosis.

[0004] Clinical studies have found that adjusting the patient's position can effectively improve the outcome of gastric lavage. Adjusting the patient between supine, left lateral, and right lateral positions allows the lavage fluid to more comprehensively reach all parts of the stomach, thus cleaning the gastric folds and improving the removal rate of toxins. However, in actual emergency gastric lavage care, this crucial step of position adjustment is primarily performed manually by medical staff. Medical personnel need to expend considerable physical and mental energy to assist patients in changing positions, especially when dealing with severely ill patients who are unable to cooperate independently, making the procedure even more challenging.

[0005] In conclusion, developing a device that can assist in adjusting the patient's position during emergency gastric lavage is of great practical significance. It can help improve the quality and efficiency of emergency gastric lavage, reduce the workload of medical staff, and better protect the life and health of patients. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The present invention aims to provide an emergency gastric lavage nursing auxiliary device, which solves the problem of inconvenience in adjusting the patient's position during gastric lavage.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows: an emergency gastric lavage nursing auxiliary device, comprising:

[0008] The bed frame has grooves formed on it;

[0009] A water storage tank, the top of which has an opening, is rotatably connected to a groove;

[0010] A drive motor is disposed in the groove and is fixedly connected to the side wall of the water storage tank;

[0011] A flexible pad is sealed to the opening of the water storage tank. The surface of the flexible pad has multiple limiting grooves. An appropriate amount of clean water is filled between the flexible pad and the water storage tank.

[0012] Multiple buoyancy rods float on the surface of clear water, and the buoyancy rods can resist the flexible pad when the water tank is kept horizontal;

[0013] A traction assembly capable of moving the position of the constraint buoyancy bar;

[0014] Two limiting plates are provided, and the two limiting plates are set in corresponding limiting grooves.

[0015] Furthermore, the traction assembly includes a flexible traction plate, which is connected to both sides of the bottom of the flexible pad. The flexible traction plate covers all the buoyancy rods between the flexible traction plate and the flexible pad. A gravity block is connected to the bottom of the flexible traction plate. The gravity block is slidably connected to the bottom of the water storage tank. Sliding grooves that are slidably connected to the gravity block are provided on two opposite side walls of the water storage tank.

[0016] With the above setup, the water tank is rotated by the drive motor, and the water and gravity block inside the tank rotate accordingly. The flow of water and the movement of the gravity block cause the flexible traction plate to deform, thereby changing the enclosure angle between the flexible traction plate and the flexible pad on the side opposite to the rotation direction. The buoyancy rod then pushes out the flexible pad on that side, allowing the patient to maintain the corresponding position.

[0017] Furthermore, the water storage tank is equipped with two traction motors, and each traction motor has a traction rope connected to its output shaft. The two traction ropes are respectively connected to the flexible traction plates on both sides of the gravity block. The drive motor and the traction motor are electrically connected to a controller, which is installed on the bed.

[0018] With the above settings, the controller can turn the drive motor and traction motor on or off. The traction motor and traction rope can move the corresponding side of the flexible traction plate, further changing the shape of the flexible traction plate, thereby adjusting the position of the buoyancy rod inside, and thus making appropriate adjustments to the patient's position.

[0019] Furthermore, the cross-sectional shape of both the limiting groove and the lower side of the limiting plate is trapezoidal.

[0020] With the above settings, the trapezoidal limiting groove can make the limiting plate connection tighter and maintain the stability of the limiting plate.

[0021] Furthermore, a sponge pad is provided on the opposite side of both limiting plates.

[0022] With the above setup, when using the limiting plates to maintain the patient's position, the sponge pad makes the patient more comfortable, and the two limiting plates can clamp and limit the patient more stably.

[0023] Furthermore, the buoyancy rod adopts a hollow structure, and a first magnet is embedded at both ends of the buoyancy rod. Second magnets that attract each other are embedded on opposite sides of the water storage tank.

[0024] With the above configuration, the hollow buoyancy bar can more easily change its position quickly by using the buoyancy of water. At the same time, the mutual attraction between the first and second magnets can keep the relative positions of the two ends of the buoyancy bar from deviating, effectively maintaining the reliability of the buoyancy bar's movement.

[0025] Furthermore, a cover plate is provided between the bed and the water tank. The cover plate is located directly above the drive motor. An elastic fabric is provided in the area between the cover plate, the water tank, and the bed. The elastic fabric is connected between the water tank and the bed and only abuts against one side of the cover plate.

[0026] With the above-mentioned design, the gap between the water tank and the bed can be covered by the cover plate and elastic cloth, making the appearance of the device simpler and preventing other objects from falling into the groove of the bed during movement.

[0027] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this solution are:

[0028] 1. This solution uses a drive motor to rotate the water tank, which, in conjunction with the flow of water, the movement of the gravity block, and the control of the flexible traction plate by the traction motor and traction rope, enables automatic adjustment of the patient's position. This eliminates the need for manual operation by medical staff, greatly reducing their workload and allowing them to devote more energy to other key nursing care aspects.

[0029] 2. This solution utilizes the limiting grooves and plates on the flexible pad, the buoyancy of the buoyancy rod on the surface of clean water, and the constraint of the buoyancy rod's position by the traction component. This allows for precise adjustment of the patient to different positions, such as supine, left lateral, and right lateral decubitus, according to the actual needs of gastric lavage. The limiting grooves, with their trapezoidal cross-section, ensure a tight connection and stability of the limiting plates. The sponge pad provides greater comfort and stable positioning during patient adjustment. Simultaneously, the buoyancy rod rapidly changes position using the buoyancy of the water, while the mutual attraction between the first and second magnets keeps their ends aligned, ensuring reliable position adjustment. The traction motor and traction rope further modify the shape of the flexible traction plate and flexibly adjust the position of the buoyancy rod, achieving precise adjustment of the patient's position to better meet the requirements of different positions during gastric lavage for removing toxins from the folds of the stomach.

[0030] 3. This protocol effectively adjusts the patient's position, allowing the gastric lavage solution to more comprehensively reach all parts of the stomach. This overcomes the limitation of traditional gastric lavage methods, which can only clean toxins from the surface of the stomach and cannot fully remove toxins from the folds within the stomach. Allowing the patient to adjust between different positions enhances the effectiveness of the gastric lavage, contributing to improved treatment outcomes and prognosis. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0043] The present invention will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments:

[0044] Example 1

[0045] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, an emergency gastric lavage nursing aid device includes:

[0046] The bed body 1 has a groove on its upper surface and a through hole with the same shape as the bottom of the water storage tank 2 at its bottom.

[0047] A water storage tank 2 has an opening at its top and is rotatably connected to a groove. A rotating shaft 3 is connected to the side of the water storage tank 2 away from the drive motor 9, and the rotating shaft 3 is rotatably connected to the groove of the bed body 1. In this embodiment, a cover plate 4 is rotatably connected between the water storage tank 2 and the bed body 1. The cover plate 4 is positioned directly above the drive motor 9. An elastic fabric 5 is adhered to the area between the cover plate 4, the water storage tank 2, and the bed body 1. The elastic fabric 5 is connected between the water storage tank 2 and the bed body 1, and only the side of the elastic fabric 5 closest to the cover plate 4 abuts against the side of the cover plate 4.

[0048] The water inlet pipe 6 and the water outlet pipe 7 are connected to the side wall of the water storage tank 2 and located outside the drive motor 9. During the movement of the water storage tank 2, the water inlet pipe 6 will not interfere with the drive motor 9. There are two water outlet pipes 7, which are symmetrically connected to the bottom of the water storage tank 2.

[0049] Three switching valves 8 are installed on the inlet pipe 6 and the outlet pipe 7 respectively. The switching valves 8 can control the opening and closing of the inlet pipe 6 or the outlet pipe 7. In this embodiment, the switching valves 8 are existing products and this solution does not improve them.

[0050] The drive motor 9 has a support frame 10 connected to its bottom by screws. The support frame 10 is welded into the groove of the bed 1 and located outside the water storage tank 2. The drive motor 9 is fixedly connected to the center of the side wall of the water storage tank 2.

[0051] A flexible pad 11 is attached to the opening of the water storage tank 2, which can seal the opening of the water storage tank 2. The upper surface of the flexible pad 11 has multiple spaced limiting grooves 12, and an appropriate amount of clean water is filled between the flexible pad 11 and the water storage tank 2.

[0052] Multiple buoyancy rods 13 float on the surface of the clear water. In this embodiment, the buoyancy rods 13 adopt a hollow internal structure with closed ends to enhance buoyancy. This allows the buoyancy rods 13 to move quickly on the water surface when the water tank 2 tilts, improving adjustment efficiency. Each end of the buoyancy rod 13 has a first placement groove, and each first placement groove contains a first magnet 14. The opposite side walls of the water tank 2 have second placement grooves, and each second placement groove contains a second magnet 15 that attracts the first magnet 14. When the water tank 2 is horizontal, the buoyancy rods 13 can abut against the flexible pad 11.

[0053] The traction assembly is capable of moving and constraining the position of the buoyancy rods 13. In this embodiment, the traction assembly includes a flexible traction plate 16, the two ends of which are attached to the sides of the bottom of the flexible pad 11. The flexible traction plate 16 covers all the buoyancy rods 13 between the flexible traction plate 16 and the flexible pad 11. A gravity block 17 is attached to the bottom center of the flexible traction plate 16. The gravity block 17 has a density greater than that of water and cannot float in water. The gravity block 17 is slidably connected to the bottom of the water storage tank 2. Sliding grooves 18 are provided on two opposite side walls of the water storage tank 2, which are slidably connected to the gravity block 17. Sliding rods 19 located in the sliding grooves 18 are attached to both ends of the gravity block 17.

[0054] Two limiting plates 20 are disposed within corresponding limiting grooves 12. In this embodiment, the lower cross-sectional shape of both the limiting groove 12 and the limiting plate 20 is trapezoidal, which ensures the stability of the connection between the limiting groove 12 and the limiting plate 20. A sponge pad 21 is adhered to the opposite side of each of the two limiting plates 20. The sponge pad 21 improves the patient's comfort during position adjustment and also makes the clamping and limiting of the patient by the two limiting plates 20 more stable.

[0055] The working process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0056] Before adjusting the patient's position to assist with the gastric lavage procedure, the patient should first lie flat on a flexible board, with the board and buoyancy bar 13 providing support. Then, two limiting plates 20 are inserted into the corresponding limiting slots 12, using the limiting plates 20 and sponge pads 21 to limit the patient's position, ensuring that the sponge pads 21 are in contact with the patient.

[0057] After the above preparations are completed, the drive motor 9 is started via the controller 24. Once the drive motor 9 starts working, it will rotate the water tank 2 within the groove of the bed body 1 because it is fixedly connected to the center of the side wall of the water tank 2. During the rotation of the water tank 2, the water inside the water tank 2 will flow. Simultaneously, the gravity block 17 at the bottom of the flexible traction plate 16, being denser than water, cannot float and will slide along the slide groove 18 at the bottom of the water tank 2. The direction of movement of the water and the gravity block 17 is the same as the direction of rotation of the water tank 2. Under the combined action of the water flow and the movement of the gravity block 17, the flexible traction plate 16 will deform. As the rotation angle of the water tank 2 changes, the enclosing angle between the flexible traction plate 16 and the flexible pad 11 on the side opposite to the rotation direction of the water tank 2 will decrease. At this time, the buoyancy rod 13 floating on the surface of the water will move towards the area enclosed by the deformation of the flexible traction plate 16 (moving in the opposite direction to the rotation direction of the water tank 2) under the action of the water and its own buoyancy. As the included angle in this area gradually decreases, the buoyancy rod 13 will gradually accumulate here. At the same time, the weight of the patient's body will gradually be poured onto the limiting plate 20 on the rotating side of the water tank 2, so that the water on the rotating side of the water tank 2 will not push the flexible plate out. On the other side, the buoyancy rod 13, under the combined action of its gradual accumulation and the water, can push the flexible pad 11 out on that side. Because a limiting groove 12 is provided on the upper surface of the flexible pad 11, and a limiting plate 20 is provided in the limiting groove 12, and a sponge pad 21 is on the opposite side of the limiting plate 20, when the flexible pad 11 is pushed out by the buoyancy rod 13, the patient's body will change position as the flexible pad 11 deforms, so that the patient's position can be changed at any time according to actual needs.

[0058] During the movement of the buoyancy rod 13, its hollow interior and closed ends enhance buoyancy, thus improving its movement efficiency. The first magnet 14 embedded at both ends of the buoyancy rod 13 attracts the second magnet 15 embedded on the opposite side walls of the water tank 2, ensuring the buoyancy rod 13 remains in the correct position and guaranteeing reliable body positioning. During gastric lavage, the controller 24 can control the drive motor 9 to rotate the water tank 2 at different angles and directions, automatically adjusting the patient to different positions such as supine, left lateral, and right lateral decubitus, allowing the lavage fluid to more comprehensively contact all parts of the stomach and improving the lavage effect. When water needs to be changed or the device needs cleaning, the inlet and outlet valves 8 on the inlet and outlet pipes 6 and 7 can be controlled to perform water inlet and outlet operations.

[0059] Example 2

[0060] like Figures 8 to 11 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is only that: in this embodiment, two traction motors 22 are bolted to the water storage tank 2, and each traction motor 22 has a traction rope 23 connected to its output shaft. The other ends of the two traction ropes 23 are respectively connected to the flexible traction plates 16 on both sides of the gravity block 17. The drive motor 9 and the traction motor 22 are electrically connected to a controller 24, which can control the start or stop of the drive motor 9 and the traction motor 22. The controller 24 is installed on the bed body 1.

[0061] The working process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0062] When it is necessary to adjust the body position of the patient for emergency gastric lavage to assist the gastric lavage operation, the preparation is the same as in Example 1. The patient first lies flat on the flexible board, and the body is supported by the flexible board and the buoyancy bar 13. Then, two limiting plates 20 are inserted into the corresponding limiting slots 12. The patient's body is limited by the limiting plates 20 and the sponge pad 21, ensuring that the sponge pad 21 is against the patient.

[0063] Once preparation is complete, the drive motor 9 is activated via the controller 24 on the bed 1. The method and process of rotating the water tank 2 via the drive motor 9 are the same as in Example 1. The difference is that when the drive motor 9 rotates the water tank 2 to the predetermined position, if the patient's position is not properly adjusted due to the flexible pad 11 being pushed out on the other side, the traction motor 22 moves the corresponding traction rope 23 and flexible traction plate 16 to adjust the distance the buoyancy bar 13 is pushed out of the flexible pad 11. When the flexible pad 11 is pushed out excessively, the patient's position exceeds the predetermined position. At this point, the controller 24 activates the traction motor 22 on the opposite side of the water tank 2's rotation direction. The traction motor 22 moves the flexible traction plate 16 on that side, thereby widening the angle between the flexible pad 11 and the flexible traction plate 16, allowing the accumulated buoyancy bar 13 to spread out appropriately, thus reducing the amount of the flexible pad 11 being pushed out. Conversely, when the flexible pad 11 is pushed out too little, the controller 24 controls the traction motor 22 on the rotating side of the water tank 2 to start, thereby reducing the angle between the flexible pad 11 on the other side and the flexible traction plate 16, thereby increasing the amount of buoyancy rod 13 pushed out.

[0064] During gastric lavage, the controller 24 can control the drive motor 9 to rotate the water tank 2 at different angles and directions according to the lavage needs. Simultaneously, the traction motor 22 adjusts the tension of the traction rope 23, thereby more precisely controlling the deformation of the flexible traction plate 16. This allows the patient to more accurately adjust to different positions such as supine, left lateral, and right lateral decubitus, ensuring the lavage fluid reaches all parts of the stomach more comprehensively and improving the lavage effect. When water needs to be changed or the device needs cleaning, the inlet and outlet valves 8 on the inlet pipe 6 and outlet pipe 7 can be controlled to perform water inlet and outlet operations.

[0065] The above are merely embodiments of the present invention, and common knowledge such as specific structures and / or characteristics in the solutions are not described in detail here. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the structure of the present invention, and these should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention. These modifications and improvements will not affect the effectiveness of the implementation of the present invention or the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection claimed in this application should be determined by the content of its claims, and the specific embodiments described in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
