[0031] Currently, common patient transport devices, such as stretchers and flip boards, do not consider the issue of pressure injury protection during patient transfer, resulting in unnecessary injuries.
[0032] In view of this, the embodiments of the present disclosure may provide a patient transport device that prevents pressure injury and solves the problems in the related art.
[0033] like Figure 1 , which is a schematic diagram showing the structure of a patient transport device for preventing pressure injury in one embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0034] The patient transport device includes a carrying body 100 and at least one flexible buffer portion 102 having elasticity.
[0035] The carrier body 100 forms a bearing surface for bearing a human body, and the bearing surface may be the upper surface of the carrier body 100. In some embodiments, the carrier body 100 may include a flexible material base pad 101, and the bearing surface is located on the upper surface of the flexible material base pad 101. In some embodiments, the flexible material base pad 101 may be made of cloth or other materials. The deformable flexible material base pad 101 can better wrap the carried human body.
[0036] The at least one flexible buffer portion 102 is disposed at the buttocks position or at a position adjacent to the buttocks on the bearing surface. The flexible buffer portion 102 is disposed at the buttocks position to directly form an elastic support buffering effect on the buttocks of the human body, protecting the pressure injury on the buttocks from being squeezed by hard force. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the flexible buffer portion 102 is disposed at a position adjacent to the buttocks, which may play a role in suspending pressure injuries and protecting.
[0037] In some embodiments, the at least one flexible buffer portion 102 can be made of memory foam, such as polyether polyurethane, which has the characteristics of slow compression and rebound, and plays a good buffering and protective role against pressure injuries.
[0038] In some embodiments, the at least one flexible buffer portion 102 is detachably provided on the bearing surface for easy replacement. In a further example, the structure in which the at least one flexible buffer portion 102 is provided on the bearing surface includes at least one of the following: Velcro bonding; snap connection; sewing; adhesive bonding. For example, a first Velcro is sewn on the bearing surface, and a second Velcro is provided on the flexible buffer portion 102 for contact and connection with the first Velcro. For another example, a first snap-fit portion, such as a buckle, is provided on the bearing surface; a second snap-fit portion, such as an elastic hook, is provided on the flexible buffer portion 102 to snap into the first snap-fit portion. For another example, the flexible buffer portion 102 is fixed to the bearing surface by adhesive.
[0039] In some embodiments, the number of the flexible buffering parts 102 can be multiple and can be arranged at different positions on the bearing surface.
[0040] like Figure 2 , which is a schematic structural diagram of a patient transport device in another embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0041] exist Figure 2 In the embodiment, the at least one flexible buffer portion includes a pair of first flexible buffer portions 102a. The pair of first flexible buffer portions 102a are respectively arranged on both sides of the buttocks position on the bearing surface of the bearing body 100, and can be arranged along the length direction of the human body, so as to suspend the buttocks of the patient with pressure injury to form protection.
[0042] like Figure 3 , which is a schematic structural diagram of a patient transport device in another embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0043] exist Figure 2 In the embodiment, the at least one flexible buffer portion includes a pair of second flexible buffer portions 102b. The pair of second flexible buffer portions 102b are respectively arranged on both sides of the buttocks position on the bearing surface of the bearing body 100, and can be arranged along the width direction of the human body. In addition, the gap between the pair of second flexible buffer portions 102b corresponds to the buttocks seam position, so as to suspend the buttocks seam area with pressure injury of the patient to form protection.
[0044] like Figure 4 As shown, a schematic structural diagram of a patient transport device in yet another embodiment of the present disclosure is shown.
[0045] In some embodiments, in addition to the flexible buffer portion 102, the carrier body 100 may be combined with some lifting structures to carry the patient. Figure 5 and Figure 6 ,exist Figure 1 The lifting structure of the supporting body 100 is exemplified on the basis of the structure.
[0046] like Figure 5 , which is a schematic structural diagram of a patient transport device in another embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0047] exist Figure 5 In the embodiment, the carrier body 100' includes a plurality of lifting handles that cooperate with the flexible material base pad 101. The number of the plurality of lifting handles may be, for example, 4 or more. Exemplarily, the plurality of lifting handles may include: first lifting handles 103a respectively disposed at the four corners of the flexible material base pad 101; and / or, the plurality of lifting handles may include: four second lifting handles 103b disposed in pairs at opposite sides of the flexible material base pad 101. By pulling up the plurality of lifting handles at the same time, the patient on the carrier surface can be lifted.
[0048] For example, Figure 6 , which is a schematic structural diagram of a patient transport device in another embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0049] exist Figure 6 In the embodiment, the carrier body 100" includes a stretcher assembly matched with the flexible material base pad 101. The stretcher assembly may include two stretcher pieces 104, which are respectively positioned and combined with the lateral sides of the flexible material base pad 101, and extend a pair of operating ends at the front and rear sides respectively. Two medical staff can lift the patient by respectively operating the pair of operating ends at their respective positions.
[0050] In some embodiments, the present disclosure may also provide a transport bed, provided with a patient transport device as described in any one of the first aspects. Through the patient transport device, patients can be transferred between different transport beds.
[0051] In summary, the disclosed embodiments provide a patient transport device for preventing pressure injury and a transport bed used therein, the device comprising: a bearing body, forming a bearing surface for bearing a human body; and at least one flexible buffering portion having elasticity, arranged at a breech position or a breech-adjacent position on the bearing surface. During the patient transport process, the flexible buffering portion can protect the pressure injury part of the patient's buttocks, thereby avoiding injury and effectively improving the protection of the patient.
[0052] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. Anyone familiar with the technology may modify or change the above embodiments without violating the spirit and scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or changes made by a person of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit and technical ideas disclosed in the present disclosure shall still be covered by the claims of the present disclosure.
