Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a wearable medical device for treating inverted nipples. Background Technology

[0002] The typical symptom of inverted nipples is that the nipple is lower than the areola and cannot be easily squeezed out by hand. Depending on the degree of inversion, it can be classified as mild, moderate, or severe. Treatment methods for inverted nipples include non-surgical and surgical treatments.

[0003] Non-surgical treatment mainly uses traction and negative pressure suction therapy, which is suitable for mild and some moderate patients. Long-term adherence is required to achieve good results.

[0004] There are already negative pressure orthodontic devices on the market for mild and some moderate patients. However, all of these medical devices require patients to hold them by hand. During long-term orthodontic treatment, this wastes a lot of time and energy for patients, seriously affecting their quality of life and work efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a wearable medical device for treating inverted nipples, which allows patients to perform other tasks during the nipple inversion correction process without holding the correction device.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution: This application discloses a wearable medical device for treating inverted nipples, including a wearable main body and an orthodontic assembly. The wearable main body is worn on the chest area of ​​a patient and has a left chest area, a right chest area, and a storage pocket. The left chest area and / or the right chest area have a perforation hole. The orthodontic assembly includes a main unit and an orthodontic cover. The orthodontic cover has a first suction cavity in the shape of a suction cup and an air extraction port communicating with the first suction cavity. The orthodontic cover is built into the left chest area and / or the right chest area. The main unit is detachably built into the storage pocket. The main unit includes an air pump and an integrated circuit board. The integrated circuit board includes a microcontroller module and a network module. The air pump is electrically connected to the network module through the microcontroller module. The air inlet pipe of the air pump passes through the perforation hole and communicates with the air extraction port. The air outlet of the air pump communicates with the outside of the main unit.

[0007] In one embodiment, the host also includes a liquid pump and a liquid storage tank. The correction hood is provided with a spray nozzle that communicates with the first adsorption chamber. The liquid pump is electrically connected to the network module through the microcontroller module. The first inlet pipe of the liquid pump is connected to the interior of the liquid storage tank. The outlet pipe of the liquid pump passes through the through-hole and is connected to the spray nozzle. The liquid storage tank is used to contain lidocaine solution, and its second inlet pipe is connected to the exterior of the host. The end of the second inlet pipe away from the liquid storage tank is provided with a detachable cap.

[0008] In one embodiment, an observation window is provided on the side of the main unit corresponding to the liquid storage tank.

[0009] In one embodiment, the host also includes a conduit extending from the inside of the host to the outside of the host. The conduit passes through a through-hole and is connected to an air intake port and a liquid spray port. An air inlet pipe and a liquid outlet pipe are built into the inside of the conduit.

[0010] In one embodiment, the correction cover further includes an adsorption cover, the negative pressure cover is built into the first adsorption chamber, the negative pressure cover is shaped like a suction cup and has a second adsorption chamber, and the air extraction port and the liquid spraying port are respectively connected to the second adsorption chamber.

[0011] In one embodiment, the integrated circuit board also includes a Bluetooth module, and the air pump and liquid pump are electrically connected to the microcontroller module via the Bluetooth module.

[0012] In one embodiment, the integrated circuit board also includes a charging module, and the host also includes a battery.

[0015] In one embodiment, the opening of the storage pocket is provided with a connecting part, which is used to close the opening.

[0016] Analysis reveals that this invention discloses a wearable medical device for treating inverted nipples. During use, the patient wears the main body of the device on their chest area and, depending on their condition, chooses to use the corrective cover within the left and / or right chest area to enclose the nipple to be corrected, thus placing the nipple within the cover. After adjusting the position of the corrective cover, the patient places the main unit inside the storage pocket of the main body and communicates with the main unit's network module via a mobile phone. This allows the patient to control the start, stop, suction time, and suction flow rate of the air pump inside the main unit via their mobile phone. The air pump creates a negative pressure environment inside the corrective cover, which in turn attracts the nipple to be corrected, ultimately achieving negative pressure suction treatment for inverted nipples. This wearable medical device is worn close to the patient's body throughout the entire process, with the main unit placed in the storage pocket, eliminating the need for the patient to hold it, effectively reducing the negative impact of long-term treatment on the patient's daily work and life.
