[0002] Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in women, which seriously threatens the life safety of patients. Surgery is one of the main treatments for breast cancer, which can improve the survival rate and prolong the survival period of patients.

[0003] After traditional mastectomy, the surgical wound is large, and a porous silicone negative pressure drainage tube is placed in the gap between the skin flap and the chest wall, connected to a negative pressure airbag. At the same time, the chest wall is bandaged with a large cotton pad and multiple layers of gauze. Because the doctor wraps the gauze manually and there are large differences in the body shape of patients, the bandaging force is not uniform, there are local gaps, and effective adhesion cannot be formed between the skin flap and the chest wall. The patient may also have incomplete hemostasis after surgery and bleeding may occur. Secondly, the chest wall drainage tube is placed in an improper position after surgery or the material of the drainage tube is too thin or too soft, or the drainage tube is removed too early, resulting in a large amount of fluid accumulation between the skin flap and the chest wall. Thirdly, the gauze is wrapped too tightly, which significantly compresses the patient's chest and affects normal breathing. Finally, when the amount of liquid in the negative pressure drainage device increases, the negative pressure decreases, and the drainage bag needs to be manually squeezed. When the amount of subcutaneous fluid is large, it is not easy to fully drain. Utility Model Content

Figure 2 A schematic diagram schematically shows the inner surface view of a vest body according to an embodiment of the utility model, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the utility model is a device for draining fluid after breast cancer surgery, comprising:

[0031] Vest body 10, chest pad 20 and armpit pad 30;

[0032] The vest body 10 is used to be worn and can fit the skin;

[0033] The vest body 10 has a first mounting position 101 and a second mounting position 102, the first mounting position 101 corresponds to the chest position, and the second mounting position 102 corresponds to the armpit position close to the chest;

[0034] The chest pad 20 is detachably connected to the first installation position 101, and the armpit pad 30 is detachably connected to the second installation position 102. The chest pad 20 and the armpit pad 30 are used for applying pressure to the affected chest and the armpit close to the affected chest.

[0035] A first through hole 1011 is provided at the center of the first installation position 101, and a second through hole 201 is provided at the center of the chest pad 20. When the chest pad 20 is installed at the first installation position 101, the first through hole 1011 corresponds to the second through hole 201. The first through hole 1011 and the second through hole 201 are used for the drainage tube 40 to pass therethrough, so that the drainage tube 40 exposed to the skin is located on the side of the vest body 10 away from the skin;

[0036] The end of the drainage tube 40 away from the skin is sealed and connected to the negative pressure device 50 .

[0037] Specifically, the vest body 10 is made of skin-friendly and elastic material and is worn on the patient's upper body. It is convenient to use. When the patient wears it, the vest body 10 can tightly wrap the patient's upper body and fit the skin, so that the skin flap and the chest wall are fully adhered.

[0038] And when wearing the vest body 10, it is necessary to first wrap a layer of sterile gauze on the wound, and then wear the vest body 10, which can prevent the vest body 10 from adhering to the skin flap.

[0039] The inner side of the vest body 10, i.e., the side in contact with the skin, is provided with a first installation position 101 and a second installation position 102. The first installation position 101 and the second installation position 102 are both provided with two, the first installation position 101 corresponds to the two chests, and the second installation position 102 corresponds to the two armpits;

[0040] The chest pad 20 and the armpit pad 30 are configured as one, which are detachably connected to the first mounting position 101 and the second mounting position 102 respectively. Specifically, they can be configured as Velcro connections, or other connection structures, which can selectively apply pressure to the chest and armpit on one side. With such a configuration, when the vest body 10 is processed and manufactured, there is no need to purposefully change the direction of the first mounting position 101 and the second mounting position 102, which is convenient for mass production. When in use, the chest pad 20 and the armpit pad 30 only need to be installed at the first mounting position 101 and the second mounting position 102 corresponding to the affected side of the chest and armpit, which is convenient for use.

[0041] And when the chest pad 20 and the armpit pad 30 are connected to the first installation position 101 and the second installation position 102 on one side, the first installation position 101 and the second installation position 102 on the other side will be blocked by the blocking structure, so as to prevent the structures for connecting the chest pad 20 and the armpit pad 30 on the first installation position 101 and the second installation position 102 from affecting the wearing comfort of the vest body 10. For example, when the first installation position 101 and the second installation position 102 are Velcro, the blocking structure can be a piece of cloth pasted on the Velcro position to prevent the Velcro from piercing the skin.

[0042] At the same time, the blocking structure can also cover the first through hole 1011 to prevent the skin from being exposed to the outside world.

[0043] The chest pad 20 and the axillary pad 30 are both sterile thickened cotton pads. The chest pad 20 and the axillary pad 30 have a certain thickness, which can give sufficient pressure to the skin and achieve sufficient drainage. The size of the chest pad 20 is set to cover the skin of the affected chest. The coverage range of the axillary pad 30 is from the anterior axillary line in front to the posterior axillary line in the back, from the rib margin down to the junction of the forearm and the lateral chest wall, and is in a "C" shape at the armpit to surround the junction of the upper arm and the armpit.

[0044] A first through hole 1011 is provided at the center of the first installation position 101, and the first through hole 1011 passes through the vest body 10. A second through hole 201 is provided at the center of the chest pad 20, and the second through hole 201 passes through the chest pad 20. When the chest pad 20 is installed to the first installation position 101, the first through hole 1011 corresponds to the second through hole 201. The first through hole 1011 and the second through hole 201 can allow the drainage tube 40 at the wound to extend to the outside of the vest body 10 through the first through hole 1011 and the second through hole 201, so that the drainage tube 40 does not fit the skin, thereby improving the patient's comfort.

[0045] At the same time, due to the different physiques and wound surfaces of patients, the length of the drainage tube 40 can be adjusted by pulling or retracting the drainage tube 40 through the first through hole 1011 and the second through hole 201, thereby improving the comfort and practicality of the device.

[0046] The drainage tube 40 is a porous silicone drainage tube, whose porous end is located inside the skin to facilitate drainage. The end of the drainage tube 40 away from the skin is sealed and connected to the negative pressure device 50, and the negative pressure device 50 can provide negative pressure to drain the patient's internal fluid through the drainage tube 40.

[0047] The surface of the negative pressure device 50 is provided with a scale, which can visualize the volume of the drained liquid. The negative pressure device 50 can be a negative pressure balloon, or can be set as other devices such as a negative pressure drainage bag.

[0048] Furthermore, a zipper structure 103 is vertically arranged at the center of the vest body 10, and the zipper structure 103 is used to put on and take off the vest body 10. With such arrangement, the vest body 10 can be unfolded by the zipper structure 103 to facilitate the putting on and taking off of the vest body by postoperative patients, which is more convenient than the traditional pull-on method and will not cause damage to the wound.

[0049] Furthermore, a negative pressure regulating device 401 is provided on the drainage tube 40 between the vest body 10 and the negative pressure device 50. The negative pressure regulating device 401 is used to adjust the negative pressure of the negative pressure device 50. The negative pressure regulating device 401 has a negative pressure regulating gear. By the doctor or the patient manually turning the negative pressure regulating gear to a suitable gear, the negative pressure in the negative pressure device 50 can be adjusted to ensure the normal drainage of the effusion without manually squeezing the drainage balloon.

[0050] Furthermore, a clamping device 501 is provided at the end where the negative pressure device 50 is connected to the drainage tube 40. The clamping device 501 is used to fix the negative pressure device 50. The clamping device 501 can be set as a clip, and the negative pressure device 50 can be clamped on clothing. There is no need to hold the negative pressure device 50 by hand, and the patient's hands can be freed.

[0051] To sum up, through the scheme of the utility model, the vest body 10 includes a first installation position 101 and a second installation position 102, and the first installation position 101 and the second installation position 102 are set as two, respectively corresponding to two chests and two armpits, the chest pad 20 is detachably connected to the first installation position 101, and the armpit pad 30 is detachably connected to the second installation position 102, and the chest pad 20 and the armpit pad 30 can selectively perform pressure bandage on a certain affected side of the chest wall so that the chest wall is evenly stressed.

[0052] In addition, a first through hole 1011 is provided at the center of the first installation position 101, and a second through hole 201 is provided at the center of the chest pad 20. The first through hole 1011 and the second through hole 201 can allow the drainage tube 40 to pass therethrough, so that the drainage tube 40 is exposed outside the vest body 10, so that the drainage tube 40 does not fit the skin. At the same time, the length of the drainage tube 40 can be adjusted through the first through hole 1011 and the second through hole 201 according to the patient's physique or the size of the wound, so that the patient can wear it comfortably.
