Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of medical devices, and in particular to a chest guard. Background Art
[0002] The chest plate uses the fit and rigidity of the chest plate to form a rigid plate-like structure between the fractured ribs and the surrounding normal ribs. The mechanism of action of the chest plate: without restricting the movement of the thorax, the plate can limit the displacement of the fractured ribs during breathing, coughing and other movements, so that there will be no secondary damage locally and the pain will be greatly reduced. This will achieve the purpose of relieving pain, restoring respiratory function and reducing the incidence of lung infection.
[0003] After breast cancer surgery, the patient's surgical wound generally needs to be fixed to reduce wound fluid accumulation, thereby avoiding secondary infection of the wound due to bacterial reproduction and promoting wound recovery.
[0004] However, the current chest shields are designed for the chest ribs, and the fit effect with the breast wound is not good. When the chest shield is worn on the breast wound, there is a gap between the breast and the chest shield, and the fixation and protection effect on the breast is poor. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to improve the fit between the chest guard and the breast, the present application provides a chest guard with the advantages of high fit, high wearing comfort and good fixing effect.
[0006] The chest guard provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A chest guard comprises a fixing belt and at least one fitting plate, wherein the fitting plate has plasticity and a shape of the fitting plate matches the physiological curve of a patient's breast wound, and the fixing belt is used to fix the fitting plate to the patient's wound.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the laminating plate is pressed into a shape that fits the body curve at the part of the patient that needs to be fixed, so that the laminating plate can be closely fitted to the patient's wound. The laminating plate is fixed to the patient's wound with a fixing belt, which can provide continuous and high-fitting protection for the patient's wound, prevent excessive movement of the patient's wound, help the wound to heal quickly, reduce fluid accumulation in the wound, and prevent secondary infection of the wound; at the same time, pressing the laminating plate can compress the breast surgery wound and squeeze out the fluid accumulated in the wound, which, combined with the subsequent continuous laminating of the laminating plate, further improves the protection effect and effectively avoids secondary infection of the wound due to fluid accumulation.
[0009] Optionally, the bonding plate includes a hardening layer, the hardening layer is made of polyester fiber polymer material, and the hardening layer is dipped in polyurethane glue.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the polyurethane glue is dipped into the hardening layer, so that the bonding plate will gradually harden after contacting the moisture in the air, and the unhardened bonding plate is pressed on the wound to form a corresponding shape, and then the bonding plate will gradually harden and be fixed in the shape. The hardened bonding plate can further improve the positioning and protection effect of the wound, reduce the movement of the wound, and reduce the generation of fluid accumulation in the wound.
[0011] Optionally, the laminated plate further includes a separation layer, and the hardening layer is enclosed in the separation layer.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the hardening layer is covered with a separation layer to isolate the internal structure, avoid close contact with the human body, and at the same time improve the comfort of the laminate when in use.
[0013] Optionally, the separation layer is made of non-woven fabric material.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the non-woven fabric material has good air permeability and water absorption, which can ensure that the polyurethane glue on the hardening layer is fully exposed to the air and gradually hardens. At the same time, its texture is light and soft, which avoids excessive increase in the weight of the bonding plate and reduces the burden on patients when wearing it. The soft material can improve the comfort of patients when wearing it and achieve better protection for the wound.
[0015] Optionally, the fixing belt includes a covering portion, a first wrapping belt and a second wrapping belt, the covering portion is provided with pockets corresponding to the number of bonding plates, the pockets are used to place the bonding plates, the first wrapping belt and the second wrapping belt are respectively fixed at two ends of the covering portion, one end of the first wrapping belt passes around the chest cavity and is detachably connected to the covering portion, and one end of the second wrapping belt passes around the chest cavity and is detachably connected to the covering portion.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the covering part together with the fitting plate can be fixed to the wound on the chest by sequentially passing the first wrapping belt and the second wrapping belt around the chest cavity and connecting them to the covering part. The wrapping wearing method has better stability, which can improve the stability of the fitting plate and thus improve the protective effect. At the same time, the wrapping belt has a good fit with the human body, which makes it easier for patients to wear clothes outside the chest guard, thereby improving the convenience of use.
[0017] Optionally, two second winding belts are provided, an interlacing gap is formed between the two second winding belts, and one end of the first winding belt passes through the interlacing gap.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, by interlacing the first wrapping belt and the second wrapping belt, the stability of the wrapping fixation can be improved, and the deviation of the covering part can be avoided, thereby improving the continuous fit between the fitting plate and the patient's body and improving the protective effect.
[0019] Optionally, one end of the first wrapping tape used to connect to the covering portion and one end of the second wrapping tape used to connect to the covering portion are both provided with Velcro, and the Velcro is adhered to the surface of the covering portion.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, Velcro can be used to achieve convenient connection between the wrapping belt and the covering part, thereby improving the convenience and efficiency of wearing the chest guard.
[0021] Optionally, both the first wrapping belt and the second wrapping belt are made of elastic material.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, elastic material is used to enable the first wrapping band and the second wrapping band to be able to expand and contract to a certain extent, and the tightness of the chest guard can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs, which makes the patient more comfortable to wear. At the same time, as the chest expands and contracts during breathing, the first wrapping band and the second wrapping band also stretch and retract accordingly, ensuring that the chest guard always fits the patient's wound, thereby improving the protection effect.
[0023] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0024] 1. Using a fixing belt to fix the laminating board to the patient's wound can provide continuous and highly fitting protection for the patient's wound, prevent excessive movement of the patient's wound, help the wound heal quickly, and reduce wound fluid accumulation to prevent secondary infection of the wound; at the same time, pressing the laminating board can compress the breast surgery wound and squeeze out the fluid accumulated in the wound. With the continuous laminating of the subsequent laminating board, the protection effect is further improved, and the secondary infection of the wound due to fluid accumulation can be effectively avoided;
[0025] 2. By applying polyurethane glue to the hardening layer, the laminated plate will gradually harden after contacting the moisture in the air. The laminated plate that has not yet hardened is pressed on the wound to form a corresponding shape. Then the laminated plate will gradually harden and be fixed in the shape. The hardened laminated plate can further improve the positioning and protection effect of the wound, reduce the movement of the wound, and reduce the generation of wound effusion;
[0026] 3. By sequentially passing the first wrapping strap and the second wrapping strap around the chest cavity and connecting them to the covering portion, the covering portion together with the fitting plate can be fixed to the wound on the chest. The wrapping wearing method has better stability, which can improve the stability of the fitting plate and thus improve the protective effect. At the same time, the wrapping strap has a good fit with the human body, which makes it easier for patients to wear clothes outside the chest guard, thereby improving convenience of use.

[0031] The following is combined with Figure 1-3 This application is described in further detail.
[0032] The present application embodiment discloses a chest guard, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , including a fixing belt 2 and at least one fitting plate 1, the fitting plate 1 has plasticity, and the shape of the fitting plate 1 can fit the physiological curve of the patient's breast wound, and the fixing belt 2 is used to fix the fitting plate 1 on the patient's wound.
[0033] The laminating plate 1 is pressed on the patient's wound to form a corresponding shape, and the laminating plate 1 is fixed on the patient's wound using the fixing belt 2, thereby positioning the patient's wound to prevent the wound from moving significantly when the patient's body moves, thereby improving the protection effect on the patient's wound and avoiding secondary infection due to fluid accumulation in the wound. At the same time, pressing the laminating plate 1 can squeeze out the fluid accumulated in the patient's wound, thereby further reducing the fluid accumulation in the patient's wound.
[0034] In actual use, two fitting plates 1 can be selected according to the actual conditions of the patient, and the fitting plates 1 are also provided with a variety of sizes to match patients of different body shapes and ensure the fitting effect of the fitting plates 1.
[0035] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 The laminated board 1 includes a hardened layer 11, which is composed of a polyester fiber polymer material or a multilayer glass fiber material, and is dipped with polyurethane glue. With the help of the wet heat curing property of the polyurethane glue, when the laminated board 1 is pressed into a corresponding shape, as the polyurethane glue continues to contact with water molecules in the air, the polyurethane glue gradually hardens, and then the hardened layer 11 gradually hardens. The hardened laminated board 1 can provide a more stable protection effect.
[0036] It should be noted that the actual product of the bonding board 1 in the present application is packaged in an aluminum foil bag before use to prevent the polyurethane glue from hardening when exposed to air. When in use, open the aluminum foil bag and take out the bonding board 1, and then press it into the corresponding shape. After a period of time, the bonding board 1 gradually hardens when exposed to air.
[0037] Further, refer to Figure 2 The laminated board 1 further comprises a separation layer 12, and the hardened layer 11 is enclosed in the separation layer 12. The separation layer 12 is used to protect the hardened layer 11 and isolate the hardened layer 11 to prevent the hardened layer 11 from directly contacting the human body.
[0038] Furthermore, the partition layer 12 is made of non-woven fabric. The non-woven fabric has good air permeability and water absorption, which can ensure that the polyurethane glue on the hardening layer 11 is fully exposed to the air and gradually hardens. At the same time, its texture is light and soft, which avoids excessive increase in the weight of the bonding plate 1 and reduces the burden of the patient wearing it. The soft material can improve the comfort of the patient when wearing it, and achieve better protection effect on the wound.
[0039] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The fixing belt 2 includes a covering portion 21, a first wrapping belt 22 and a second wrapping belt 23. The covering portion 21 is provided with pockets 3 corresponding to the number and size of the laminating plates 1. The pockets 3 are used to place the laminating plates 1. The first wrapping belt 22 and the second wrapping belt 23 are respectively fixed at both ends of the covering portion 21. One end of the first wrapping belt 22 bypasses the patient's chest cavity and is detachably connected to the surface of the covering portion 21. One end of the second wrapping belt 23 also bypasses the patient's chest cavity and is detachably connected to the surface of the covering portion 21.
[0040] When in use, take out the bonding plate 1 from the aluminum foil bag, place it on the patient's wound to press out a corresponding shape, then place the bonding plate 1 in the pocket 3, and then stick the bonding plate 1 in the pocket 3 to the corresponding wound, then pass the first wrapping belt 22 and the second wrapping belt 23 around the patient's chest in turn and connect to the surface of the covering part 21, so that the bonding plate 1 can be fixed on the patient's wound.
[0041] Further, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 Two second wrapping belts 23 are provided, and an interlacing gap 4 is formed between the two second wrapping belts 23. One end of the first wrapping belt 22 passes through the interlacing gap 4 and is connected to the covering portion 21. By interlacing the first wrapping belt 22 and the second wrapping belt 23, the fixing effect of the bonding plate 1 can be further improved, the continuous fit between the bonding plate 1 and the patient's body can be improved, and the protection effect can be improved.
[0042] Furthermore, one end of the first wrapping belt 22 connected to the covering part 21 and one end of the second wrapping belt 23 connected to the covering part 21 are both provided with Velcro, which is attached to the surface of the covering part 21. The Velcro can be used to conveniently connect the wrapping belt and the covering part 21, thereby improving the convenience and efficiency of wearing the chest guard.
[0043] Furthermore, the first wrapping belt 22 and the second wrapping belt 23 are both made of elastic material. The elastic material allows the first wrapping belt 22 and the second wrapping belt 23 to be able to expand and contract to a certain extent, and the tightness of the chest guard can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs, so that the patient can wear it more comfortably. At the same time, along with the expansion and contraction of the chest during breathing, the first wrapping belt 22 and the second wrapping belt 23 also stretch and retract accordingly, ensuring that the chest guard is always in close contact with the patient's wound, thereby improving the protective effect.
[0044] The implementation principle of a chest guard disclosed in an embodiment of the present application is: first, determine the number of fitting plates 1 and select an appropriate size according to the actual situation of the patient, take out the fitting plate 1 from the aluminum foil bag after cleaning the patient's wound, place the fitting plate 1 on the patient's wound and press it to form a shape that fits the patient's body curve, then place the fitting plate 1 into the pocket 3, and then fit the fitting plate 1 to the patient's wound, and then wrap the first wrapping belt 22 and the second wrapping belt 23 around the patient's chest cavity in turn, after adjusting the comfortable tightness, adhere the Velcro to the covering part 21, and then flatten the fixing belt 2.
[0045] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
