Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of medical rehabilitation equipment, and more specifically to a special neck position fixer. Background Art

[0002] In clinical work, we often encounter cases where special body positions need to be maintained after cervical surgery. For example, when cervical tracheal stenosis is caused by cervical tracheal tumors or other lesions, the surgeon will perform tracheal sleeve resection and end-to-end anastomosis to completely remove the diseased tissue and reconstruct the airway. After cervical tracheal sleeve resection, patients are required to maintain a semi-recumbent position with the head tilted forward, or cough and eat in a head-down position or neck-flexed position. Improper body position and excessive traction can easily cause complications such as anastomotic dehiscence.

[0003] To prevent the patient from excessively swinging and pulling the neck, reduce the tension of the anastomosis, and avoid causing anastomotic dehiscence, sutures are required between the patient's mandible and the anterior chest wall after surgery. The patient needs to maintain the central forward flexion position of the head and neck for about two weeks. During this period, the patient should minimize head movement and avoid raising the head or tilting the head back.

[0004] Due to intolerance to this forced posture, patients easily feel fatigue in the cervical joints and muscles, resulting in irritability and inability to cooperate with treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to design a device to assist patients in fixing their necks. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a special neck position fixator, which has the advantage of helping the patient maintain the position, making it impossible for the patient to lift his head, avoiding wound tearing, and making treatment easier.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] A special neck position fixator comprises a back plate, a fixing belt is arranged on the back plate, the back plate is fixed to the patient's back through the fixing belt, a head plate is obliquely arranged on the top of the back plate, the head plate is used to fit with the back of the patient's head, and positioning plates are arranged on both sides of the head plate, the positioning plates are used to fit with both sides of the patient's head.

[0008] The utility model is further configured as follows: the head plate comprises a plurality of sub-plates which are rotatably connected to each other, and a fixing component for fixing the rotation angle of the sub-plates is provided at the connection between adjacent sub-plates.

[0009] The utility model is further configured as follows: a rotating shaft is provided at the bottom end of the sub-board, and the left and right ends of the rotating shaft respectively penetrate into the inner walls of adjacent sub-boards, and the fixing component includes a threaded groove opened on the side wall of the sub-board, and a knob is threadedly connected in the threaded groove, and the knob penetrates into the threaded groove and presses against the rotating shaft, thereby realizing the fixing of the rotation angle of the sub-board.

[0010] The utility model is further configured as follows: the fixing belt is fixed by means of Velcro or buckles.

[0011] The utility model is further configured as follows: the fixing belts are provided with a plurality of groups, and the plurality of fixing belts are arranged along a vertical direction.

[0012] The utility model is further configured as follows: a soft cushion is arranged on the side of the head plate facing the patient.

[0013] The utility model is further configured as follows: the soft cushion is one of an air-filled bag, a memory silica gel and a cotton pad.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has at least the following advantages:

[0015] 1. The headboard is fixed to the patient through the fixing belt and the backboard. The tilted headboard prevents the patient's neck from lifting up, while the positioning plates on both sides of the headboard play the role of fixing the head to prevent excessive swinging of the patient's head. The patient passively maintains the body position through the fixator to avoid wound tearing, and can focus on other things, making treatment easier.

[0016] 2. By setting up sub-plates and fixed components that are rotatably connected to each other, the head plate can be bent into any shape according to the patient's head and neck shape, body position requirements, etc., and has a wider range of applications. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0020] Description of reference numerals:

[0021] 1. Back panel; 2. Fixing strap; 3. Head panel; 4. Positioning plate; 5. Fixing assembly; 501. Threaded groove; 502. Knob; 6. Rotating shaft; 7. Clearance groove; 8. Velcro; 9. Cushion. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0023] A special neck position fixator, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, it includes a backboard 1, a fixing belt 2 is arranged on the backboard 1, and the backboard 1 is bound to the patient's back through the fixing belt 2. A headboard 3 is obliquely arranged on the top of the backboard 1, and the headboard 3 is inclined toward the front of the patient. The headboard 3 is used to fit with the back of the patient's head to prevent the patient from lifting his head. Positioning plates 4 are arranged on both sides of the headboard 3, and the positioning plates 4 are used to fit with both sides of the patient's head to prevent the patient's head from swinging excessively.

[0024] The head plate 3 includes three sub-plates which are rotatably connected to each other. A fixing component 5 for fixing the rotation angle of the sub-plates is arranged at the connection between adjacent sub-plates. The lowermost sub-plate is fixedly connected to the back plate 1. The positioning plate 4 is arranged on the middle sub-plate, and the positioning plate 4 is perpendicular to the sub-plates.

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a rotating shaft 6 is provided at the bottom end of the sub-board, and a clearance groove 7 for connecting with an adjacent sub-board is provided at the top end of the sub-board. The left and right ends of the rotating shaft 6 are respectively inserted into the left and right inner walls of the clearance groove 7 of the adjacent sub-board, thereby realizing a rotational connection with the adjacent sub-board, and there is a reserved gap between the adjacent sub-boards so that the sub-board will not be stuck when rotating.

[0026] The fixing component 5 includes a threaded groove 501 opened on the side wall of the sub-board, and the threaded groove 501 is threadedly connected to a knob 502. The knob 502 is inserted into the threaded groove 501 and abuts against the end of the shaft 6, thereby fixing the rotation angle of the sub-board. After the knob 502 is screwed outward and separated from the shaft 6, the sub-board can be rotated to adjust the angle.

[0027] The fixing belts 2 are arranged on both sides of the back plate 1, and Velcro 8 is arranged at the ends of the fixing belts 2. The fixing belts 2 on both sides are wrapped around the patient and fastened by the Velcro 8 to achieve fixation, or buckles are arranged at the ends of the fixing belts 2, and the fixing belts 2 on both sides are connected by the buckles to achieve fixation.

[0028] In this embodiment, three groups of fixing belts 2 are specifically provided, and the three groups of fixing belts 2 are arranged in the vertical direction, so that the back plate 1 is bound more firmly and is not easy to fall off.

[0029] A soft cushion 9 is provided on the side of the head plate 3 facing the patient. The soft cushion 9 is fixed to the head plate 3 by glue. The soft cushion 9 can be one of an inflatable bag, memory silica gel and a cotton pad. The present embodiment specifically uses an inflatable bag.

[0030] The use process of the utility model is as follows:

[0031] The backboard 1 is placed against the patient's back, and the fixing straps 2 on both sides are wrapped around the front of the patient and fixed. The patient's head is located between the two positioning plates 4. When the shape of the head plate 3 needs to be adjusted, the knob 502 is loosened outwards and the sub-plate is rotated. After the adjustment is completed, the knob 502 is tightened.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the design concept of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
