Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to a device for braking an affected limb and compressing a wound to protect it. Background Art

[0002] Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in women. Every year, there are about 4 million new breast cancer patients worldwide and about 500,000 people die from breast cancer every year. Currently, surgical treatment is the preferred method for breast cancer. However, radical mastectomy may damage the pectoralis major and pectoralis minor muscles, nerves, blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, etc., leading to lymphatic reflux and blood flow disorders, which can easily cause upper limb edema and functional disorders. The shoulder joint cannot be abducted within 7-10 days after surgery to prevent flap movement and affect healing. Therefore, postoperative care of the affected limb is very important. After the patient undergoes mastectomy + axillary lymph node dissection, compression and hemostasis of the axillary wound and braking of the ipsilateral affected limb are equally important. Therefore, we have launched a new affected limb braking and wound compression protection device. Utility Model Content
