Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a device for preventing foot drop and venous thrombosis. Background Art

[0002] If bedridden patients lack exercise or the common peroneal nerve is compressed, foot drop may occur. Clinically, foot drop can generally be prevented through functional exercises and avoiding compression of the fibular head.

[0003] Patients who have lost the function of their lower limbs or have been bedridden for a long time usually lack exercise in their lower limbs. Since their legs are in a stretched-out lying position most of the time, their lower limbs cannot exert force, and their toes will stretch away from the head, resulting in foot drop. Patients who have lost the function of their lower limbs have slow blood flow in the lower limb veins, and blood accumulates in the lower limb veins, leading to lower limb venous thrombosis.

[0004] Patients need to actively perform repeated leg stretching and leg lifting activities, which can not only exercise leg muscle strength but also prevent deep vein thrombosis. During bed rest, they should also actively perform ankle dorsiflexion and plantar flexion exercises, which are also very important for preventing muscle weakness and foot drop. However, the current ankle pump exercise is boring and difficult to count and persist, and it is impossible to quantify the effect of patient exercise.

[0005] Based on the above reasons, there is an urgent need to design a device for preventing foot drop and venous thrombosis that overcomes the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of the problems mentioned in the background technology, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a device for preventing foot drop and venous thrombosis to solve the problems mentioned in the background technology.
