Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical clothing, more specifically to an improved patient clothing for chest surgery. Background Art

[0002] Now all patients admitted to the hospital need to wear the patient gowns and pants prepared by the hospital, especially those who need to undergo some surgical operations. However, the patient clothes prepared by the hospital now only play a simple shielding role, protect the privacy of patients, and facilitate medical staff to conduct inspections or place medical equipment for inspections or treatments. However, for different types of surgical operations, the same patient clothes are used, which has many inconveniences in actual use. For patients with chest surgery or rib fractures, the chest of the patient needs to be fixed after surgery to relieve the patient's pain and promote the patient's recovery. In clinical work, the hospital's patient gowns are not equipped with chest straps. Usually, a chest strap needs to be put on the basis of the original patient gown, and the chest strap needs to be purchased by the patient himself. This way of wearing is inappropriate. The chest strap is put on the outside of the patient gown, which is easy to shift and affect fixation. First, the chest straps are of different sizes and materials, and are not breathable or soft enough, which will affect the patient's comfort. Second, the patient's burden is increased and he or she has to purchase a chest strap separately. Third, conventional patient gowns and chest straps do not have reserved positions for the use of ECG monitoring chest lead electrodes and lead wires, so that the lead wires are directly pressed on the chest skin, which can easily cause instrumental skin damage. At the same time, the lead wires are messy and difficult to organize. Fourth, after chest surgery, patients have indwelling closed chest drainage tubes. Conventional patient gowns are tightly connected to the chest tubes without openings, so the chest tubes are easily folded and compressed. At the same time, the chest tubes are wrapped in patient gowns, which makes it inconvenient for nurses to observe the tubes and record the drainage fluid.

[0003] In order to facilitate postoperative patients to wear while protecting their privacy and to facilitate medical staff to perform nursing operations, a Chinese patent (authorization announcement number: CN216627576U) discloses a multifunctional postoperative patient suit. The utility model includes a patient suit body, which includes a patient suit top and patient suit pants. Arc-shaped openings are provided on both sides of the front of the patient suit top at the arm and shoulder positions, and upper and lower openings are provided on the left and right sides of the front end of the patient suit top from top to bottom. Upper pockets and lower pockets are sewn on the upper and lower sides of the inside of the patient suit top, respectively, and the upper pockets and lower pockets are located directly behind the upper opening and the lower opening, respectively. Elbow openings are provided in front of the elbows of the two sleeves of the patient suit top, and both sides of the front of the collar of the patient suit top are fixedly connected with neck-fixed Velcro strips. The patient suit promotes patients to get out of bed early, reduces the risk of tube slippage, and facilitates medical care operations.

[0004] This solution still has some shortcomings in application. Due to the different needs of different surgical patients, for patients with chest surgery or rib fractures, the chest of the patient needs a chest strap to fix it after surgery. The existing patient clothes usually do not come with a chest strap, and need to be put on extra. This easily leads to the chest strap and the patient's clothes not being suitable for size, affecting the fixation of the chest; secondly, after the chest surgery, the patient needs to use an ECG monitor to place electrodes on the chest to facilitate the connection of the wires. If there is no reserved opening, it needs to be placed from the collar, which causes pressure damage to the patient's chest skin and is not conducive to the arrangement of the lead wires; after the chest surgery, the patient has a closed chest drainage tube. The conventional patient clothes are tightly connected to each part of the chest tube without an opening, and the chest tube is easily folded and compressed. At the same time, the chest tube is wrapped in the patient clothes, which is not convenient for nurses to observe the pipeline and record the drainage fluid. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the structure of the patient's top to overcome the above-mentioned limitations, so that it is more suitable for the use of patients undergoing chest surgery and more practical.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, an improved patient suit for chest surgery comprises a patient suit body 1, a chest strap 2 is provided at the chest position of the patient suit body 1, and elastic bandages 3 are provided on the left and right sides of the chest strap 2, and the elastic bandages 3 are connected to the armpit of the patient suit body 1, and a first Velcro 4 is provided at the end of the left elastic bandage 3, and the chest strap 2 on the left side is movably connected to the patient suit body 1, and shoulder straps 5 are provided at the left and right shoulder positions of the patient suit body 1, and the shoulder straps are connected to the top of the chest strap 2, and a second Velcro 6 is provided at the end of the left shoulder strap 5, and the left shoulder strap 5 is movably connected to the patient suit body 1, and the chest strap 2 is opened from the left side of the patient suit body 1 through the first Velcro 4, and the second Velcro 6 can be opened upwards. By fixing the chest strap 2 on the patient suit body 1 to form an integrated design, it is more suitable for patients to wear. At the same time, the elastic bandage 3 and the shoulder strap 5 on the left side of the chest strap 2 are respectively provided with a first Velcro 4 and a second Velcro 6, so that the chest strap 2 can be opened from the left side to the right side of the patient suit body 1, which is convenient for patients to wear and also convenient to adjust the width according to the patient's body shape.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the left front side of the chest strap 2 is provided with a first circular opening 7 with a diameter of 5 cm, and the first circular opening 7 is used to place the ECG chest lead electrode and lead wire. The chest strap 2 is cut out with a length of 10 cm and a width of 3 cm under the armpits on both sides, and the opening is sewn with a binding Velcro 8, and the binding Velcro 8 is used to fix the drainage tube. The chest strap 2 is made of elastic bandage material, and the chest position of the patient clothing body 1 is provided with a second circular opening (due to the viewing angle, the schematic diagram is not marked), and the second circular opening is connected with the first circular opening 7.
