Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical instruments, and in particular relates to a neck support for tracheotomy patients. Background Art

[0002] Tracheotomy patients usually need to raise their necks to fully expose the tracheotomy position and improve the surgical field of view. Most of the existing technologies use cushions to raise the neck, but the cushions are not specially designed and have the following problems: 1. After raising the back of the neck, the cushion will also raise the back of the head, causing the patient to be unable to fully raise his head and unable to fully expose the tracheotomy position; 2. There is a lack of transition between the cushion and the back, so the patient's back lacks support, which can easily cause the patient's back muscle fatigue and cervical joint pain. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the above problems and provide a neck collar for tracheotomy patients. To achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0004] A cervical collar for a tracheotomy patient, comprising a back support portion and a neck support portion, wherein the back support portion is in a step-shaped form, the neck support portion is in a transversely arranged cylindrical form, and one side of the back support portion is fixedly connected to the neck support portion;

[0005] A slope portion is provided on a side of the back supporting portion away from the neck supporting portion.

[0006] As an improvement, the top of the back support portion is a flat surface, and the size of the back support portion gradually increases from top to bottom.

[0007] As an improvement, the back supporting portion has the same height as the neck supporting portion.

[0008] As an improvement, the back support portion is filled with sponge or silica gel.

[0009] As an improvement, a rubber strip is provided in the middle of the neck support portion, and the outer side of the rubber strip is wrapped with a sponge or silicone layer.

[0010] As an improvement, the outside of the neck brace is wrapped with a cotton cloth or a non-woven fabric cover.

[0011] The advantages of the utility model are:

[0012] 1. The neck support part of the utility model adopts a horizontally arranged cylindrical structure, which can provide support for the neck while reserving space for the head to lean back, thereby improving the patient's head tilting effect and fully exposing the tracheotomy position, thereby achieving the purpose of facilitating surgery.

[0013] 2. The back support part of the utility model can provide sufficient support for the patient's shoulder and back, and at the same time, the slope part gradually decreases toward the distal end, which can effectively improve the comfort of the patient when using it.
