Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a medical correction device, in particular to a device for treating pectus excavatum. Background Art

[0002] The best way to treat pectus excavatum in medicine today is to use ultra-minimally invasive pectus excavatum correction surgery under pediatric thoracoscopic surgery. Its advantages are short operation time, fast postoperative repair, and no large scars after surgery. However, considering that some patients with pulmonary embolism have different autonomy and disease severity, and there are also contraindications and refusal of surgical correction, from the perspective of pain control and prevention of complications, a less invasive conservative treatment is still needed to assist or replace it. Since the advent of vacuum bell therapy (VBT) in 2005, many research groups have successively proved its role in the treatment of pectus excavatum. After years of clinical use, VBT has been proven to be effective in patients with pulmonary embolism who have undergone non-invasive surgical correction, showing great development potential. The vacuum bell therapy is to select a suitable suction cup according to the range of chest wall depression. The suction cup fits tightly with the edge of the chest wall depression, and the negative pressure is generated in the suction cup to raise the sternum, thereby correcting the pectus excavatum. However, the current vacuum suction cup pectus excavatum treatment device has a relatively simple function, which is not conducive to the monitoring and follow-up of treatment, and has affected the treatment effect and experience summary.
