Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical auxiliary equipment, in particular to a device for preventing heel pressure injuries. Background Art

[0002] Pressure injury is caused by long-term pressure on local tissue, resulting in continuous ischemia, hypoxia, and malnutrition, leading to tissue ulceration and necrosis.

[0003] For people who need to stay in bed for a long time, such as cerebral infarction patients, the elderly, and paralyzed patients, pressure injuries are very likely to occur when local tissues are compressed due to blood circulation disorders and decreased sensitivity. The heels of patients are in contact with the bed for a long time and the skin is under severe pressure, which is a high-incidence site of pressure injuries. Currently, pillows are often used clinically to pad under the patient's calves to prevent heel pressure injuries by suspending the heels. The effect is not good because some patients will use heel pressure injury prevention devices. Traditional prevention devices can mostly support and suspend the patient during rest, but are not convenient when walking. Wheelchairs can be used for long distances, but are very inconvenient for short-term use, such as getting out of bed to go to the toilet.

[0004] A Chinese patent document (authorization announcement number CN214761929U) discloses a foot pad that prevents pressure injuries. It is not easy to fall off the patient's legs, can support the patient's soles, prevent foot drop, and keep the patient's heels suspended to avoid pressure injuries. A massage mechanism is provided on the sole of the foot to enhance blood circulation in the foot. However, it is not suitable for use during walking, especially for short-term use, such as getting out of bed to go to the toilet. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to provide a device for preventing heel pressure injuries to solve the problems raised in the background technology.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a device for preventing heel pressure injuries, comprising a foot plate, the top of the foot plate is also connected to a foot pad for supporting the sole of the foot and assisting the heel to suspend in the air, both sides of the foot plate are connected to elastic bands, and the two elastic bands are connected and fixed by Velcro;

[0007] The periphery of the foot plate is connected to three side branches, the side branch plate away from the sole pad is connected to an arc plate for preventing heel injuries, the other two side branches are connected to an arc rod for preventing heel injuries, the arc plate and the two arc rods are connected to a clamp for fixing the ankle, and the periphery of the clamp is connected to a protective sleeve for protecting the ankle.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the top of the foot plate is also connected to a massage airbag, and the massage airbag is arranged on one side of the sole pad.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, a clamping plate for limiting the calf is connected to the side of the arc-shaped plate, and multiple connecting straps for fixing the calf are connected to both sides of the clamping plate, and two adjacent connecting straps are fixed by Velcro.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, a plurality of ventilation channels are opened on the side of the cardboard, a soft pad is connected to the inner wall of the cardboard, and a breathable pad is connected to the outer periphery of the connecting belt.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the bottom end of the foot plate is detachably connected to the sole.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects and advantages of the utility model are as follows:

[0013] The heel pressure injury prevention device, thanks to the design of the elastic band and the clamp, fixes the sole and the calf, making it convenient to wear and walk. The detachable design of the sole and the foot plate makes it convenient to wear and walk when the sole is installed, and after the sole is removed, it is convenient to put it on the bed for use.

[0014] Thanks to the design of the sole pad, the curved plate and the curved rod, the sole pad can support the heel to be suspended in the air, which can prevent pressure injuries. The curved plate and the curved rod can cooperate with the clamp to fix the ankle, so that the ankle and sole can be relatively fixed, improving the comfort when the heel is suspended in the air.

[0015] Thanks to the design of the cardboard and the connecting belt, the cardboard can cooperate with the connecting belt to fix the calf, improve the relative fixation of the calf and the sole of the foot, and improve the comfort when the heel is suspended in the air;

[0016] The heel pressure injury prevention device can not only be used for walking, but also improve the comfort level when the heel is suspended in the air. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
