Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a medical appliance, in particular to a wearable compression vest after pacemaker implantation. Background Art

[0002] After a permanent pacemaker is implanted in a patient, pressure is applied to the sutured skin on the patient's chest to stop bleeding and prevent the suture from cracking or breaking. The commonly used compression method is to let the patient lie on his back without moving, and place a 2kg sandbag on the patient's chest to apply pressure to the sutured skin. However, when the sandbag is applied, the slightest movement of the patient can easily cause the sandbag to shift, and the compression and hemostasis effect is poor; because the sandbag is difficult to press firmly, the patient cannot move his body or get up to go to the toilet, which limits the patient's activities. Utility Model Content

[0003] The utility model aims to provide a wearable compression vest after pacemaker implantation. After the pacemaker implantation, the patient wears the vest and uses a fixing belt to strengthen the fixation of the hemostatic bag to prevent the hemostatic bag from deviating from the pacemaker position. Then, air is injected through the inflation port to make the hemostatic bag compress and stop bleeding on the sutured part of the patient's skin, and the compression and hemostasis effect is better. Moreover, the patient's activities are not restricted, and he can move his body and get up to go to the toilet.

The skin-contacting surface of the garment body is provided with a hemostatic bag with adjustable thickness. The hemostatic bag is arranged at the patient's chest where the pacemaker is implanted. An inflation port is arranged outside the hemostatic bag. The inflation port is used to inject air to expand the hemostatic bag. The expanded hemostatic bag increases in thickness and compresses the sutured opening of the patient's skin to stop bleeding. The two ends of the fixing belt are a buckle end and a fixed end respectively. The fixing belt obliquely passes around the shoulder on the same side of the pacemaker and the armpit on the other side. The fixed end of the fixing belt passes through the buckle and is fixed by Velcro, so that the hemostatic bag is clamped between the fixing belt and the pacemaker.

The hemostatic bag 2 is arranged at the implantation position of the patient's chest pacemaker 4. The hemostatic bag 2 is provided with an inflation port 20. The inflation port 20 is used to inject air to expand the hemostatic bag 2. The inflated hemostatic bag 2 increases in thickness and compresses the sutured opening of the patient's skin to stop bleeding. The two ends of the fixing belt 11 are a buckle end and a fixed end respectively. The fixing belt 11 obliquely passes around the shoulder on the same side of the pacemaker 4 and the armpit on the other side. The fixed end of the fixing belt 11 passes through the buckle and is fixed by Velcro, so that the hemostatic bag 2 is sandwiched between the fixing belt 11 and the pacemaker 4. After the pacemaker 4 is implanted, the patient is asked to wear the clothes 1, so that the hemostatic bag 2 is placed at the patient's chest where the pacemaker 4 is implanted. The medical staff will obliquely pass the fixing belt 11 around the shoulder on the same side of the pacemaker 4 and the armpit on the other side, and then pass the fixed end of the fixing belt 11 through the buckle and fix it with Velcro, so that the hemostatic bag 2 is clamped between the fixing belt 11 and the pacemaker 4, and then inject air through the inflation port 20 to expand the hemostatic bag 2. The thickness of the expanded hemostatic bag 2 increases and compresses the sutured opening of the patient's skin to stop bleeding. The fixing belt 11 strengthens the fixation of the hemostatic bag 2, prevents the hemostatic bag 2 from deviating from the position of the pacemaker 4, and has a better compression and hemostasis effect; moreover, the patient's activities are not restricted, and he can move his body and get up to go to the toilet.

[0031] Among them, medical staff can adjust the thickness of the hemostatic bag 2 and the length of the fixing belt 11 extending out of the buckle according to needs, so that the hemostatic bag 2 can press the patient's skin suture firmly and is suitable for patients of different body shapes.
