[0024] In order to make the technical problems solved by this application, the technical solutions adopted, and the technical effects achieved more clearly, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are further described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0025] In the description of this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connected", "connected", and "fixed" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0026] In the present application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may include that the first and second features are in direct contact, or may include that the first and second features are not in direct contact but are in contact through another feature between them. Moreover, a first feature being "above", "above" and "above" a second feature includes that the first feature is directly above and obliquely above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being "below", "below" and "below" a second feature includes that the first feature is directly below and obliquely below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.
[0027] like Figure 1-Figure 5As shown, the present embodiment provides a fixing patch for a neonatal skin temperature probe, comprising: a main body layer 1, an adhesive strip 2, a buffer layer 3 and an elastic layer 4, wherein a fixing groove 101 of adjustable size is provided at the center of the main body layer 1, and the fixing groove 101 is used to place a skin temperature probe 5, the adhesive strip 2 is connected around the outer edge of the main body layer 1, and the adhesive strip 2 is used to be adhered to the skin, the buffer layer 3 is connected to the lower part of the main body layer 1, and is staggered from the position of the fixing groove, the elastic layer 4 is connected to the upper part of the main body layer 1, and the elastic layer 4 is provided with a plurality of hollow holes, and the skin temperature probe 5 can pass through the hollow holes and be placed at the fixing groove 101, and be fixed to the fixing groove 101 through the elastic layer 4.
[0028] Based on the above scheme, as the basis of the fixing patch, the main layer 1 needs to be strong enough to support other layers and soft enough to adapt to the skin of the newborn. The fixing groove 101 is designed to be adjustable in size to adapt to skin temperature probes 5 of different models to ensure that the probes are placed stably. The adhesive strip 2 surrounds the outer edge of the main layer 1 and is used to stick the fixing patch on the skin of the newborn. It needs to have appropriate viscosity to keep the fixing patch from shifting. The buffer layer 3 is located below the main layer 1 and staggered with the fixing groove 101 to provide additional comfort and reduce direct pressure on the skin. The elastic layer 4 is located above the main layer 1 and allows the skin temperature probe 5 to pass through and be fixed through the hollow holes. The elasticity of the elastic layer 4 helps to adapt to newborns of different sizes. In this solution, by avoiding repeated tearing and sticking of medical tape, the risk of pressure injury to the newborn's skin and skin injury related to medical adhesives is reduced. The design of the buffer layer 3 and the elastic layer 4 provides better adaptability and softness, which improves the comfort of the newborn. The adjustable fixing groove 101 and the adhesive strip 2 make the use of the fixing patch more convenient, and medical staff can place the probe quickly and accurately. The design of the elastic layer 4 helps to fix the skin temperature probe 5 and reduce the monitoring error caused by the displacement of the probe. The reasonable design of the buffer layer 3 and the adhesive strip 2 helps to protect the delicate skin of the newborn and avoid discomfort caused by long-term sticking.
[0029] Furthermore, the side of the buffer layer 3 away from the main layer 1 is in an arc shape. This design is not arbitrary, but is based on in-depth considerations and practical needs in many aspects. First, the arc-shaped buffer layer 3 can better adapt to the natural curve of the newborn's body, especially the axillary area, which helps to reduce the gap between the fixing patch and the skin, thereby improving the stability and measurement accuracy of the skin temperature probe 5. Secondly, the arc design can evenly disperse the pressure of the skin temperature probe 5 on the newborn's armpit, reduce the sense of oppression, and improve the comfort of the newborn. It can also fit the newborn's body more closely, improve the fixing effect of the fixing patch, and reduce displacement caused by activities. In addition, the arc-shaped buffer layer 3 can reduce the friction between the fixing patch and the skin, reduce the irritation of the skin, and help protect the delicate skin of the newborn. When designing the arc-shaped buffer layer 3, factors such as the elasticity, thickness, durability of the buffer material and the connection method with the main layer 1 need to be considered to ensure that the buffer layer 3 can play the expected effect in actual use. In addition, actual tests are required to verify the performance of the arc-shaped buffer layer 3 under different conditions.
[0030] Furthermore, the side of the buffer layer 3 facing away from the main body layer 1 is in a continuous wave shape. Such a design has many advantages and potential benefits: Pressure dispersion: The wavy design can more effectively disperse the pressure of the skin temperature probe 5 on the armpit of the newborn, reduce local pressure points, and thus reduce the risk of skin damage. Improved breathability: The grooves naturally formed by the wavy structure can increase air circulation, improve the breathability under the fixing patch, and help reduce the occurrence of skin moisture and rashes. Enhanced adaptability: The wavy buffer layer 3 can better adapt to the slight changes in the bodies of different newborns and provide a more personalized fit. Reduced displacement: The wavy structure increases the contact points between the fixing patch and the skin, which helps to improve the stability of the fixing patch on the skin of the newborn and reduce displacement caused by activities. Improved comfort: The wavy design can provide a softer and more comfortable touch, reducing the discomfort of the newborn. Promoted heat transfer: The wavy structure may help heat to be transferred more evenly between the skin temperature probe 5 and the skin of the newborn. Reduced skin irritation: The wavy design reduces the contact area between the fixing patch and the skin, which may reduce friction and skin irritation. Easy to manufacture: If the appropriate manufacturing process is adopted, the wavy cushioning layer 3 can be produced efficiently while maintaining consistent quality and performance. Provide additional cushioning: The wavy structure can provide additional cushioning between the skin temperature probe 5 and the newborn's skin, absorbing the shock generated by the newborn's activities.
[0031] Optionally, a contraction band is provided on the periphery of the fixing groove 101, and the contraction band is used to reduce or expand the size of the fixing groove 101. The contraction band allows medical staff or parents to easily adjust the size of the fixing groove 101 according to the body shape of the newborn or the size of the skin temperature probe 5 to ensure the best fixing effect. Through the adjustment of the contraction band, the fixing patch can adapt to newborns of different body shapes, increasing the versatility of the product; the contraction band can help the fixing groove 101 to fit the skin temperature probe 5 more closely, reduce the displacement of the probe during use, and improve the accuracy of monitoring. In addition, the fixing groove 101 of appropriate size can reduce the pressure on the skin under the armpit of the newborn and improve the comfort of wearing. At the same time, the design of the contraction band simplifies the process of adjusting the size of the fixing groove 101, allowing medical staff to quickly adjust and save time.
[0032] Preferably, the outer peripheral edge of the elastic layer 4 is sealed and connected to the outer peripheral edge of the main body layer 1. By sealing and connecting the edges of the elastic layer 4 and the main body layer 1, it is ensured that the elastic layer 4 can be effectively and stably covered on the main body layer 1, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing the skin temperature probe 5.
[0033] Specifically, the buffer layer 3 is silicone, foam rubber or medical grade gel, and the adhesive strip 2 is medical grade acrylic glue, hydrogel or silicone. Silicone has good biocompatibility, little skin irritation, high temperature resistance, easy to clean and disinfect, and generally has good durability. It is often used in medical devices and baby care products, and is favored for its softness and transparency. Foam rubber is light, soft, can provide good cushioning effect, and is cost-effective. It is widely used in products that require cushioning and shock absorption, including medical equipment. Gel materials generally have good cooling effects and soothing properties, can provide additional comfort for newborns, and are often used in products that need to provide additional skin care. Medical grade acrylic glue has good viscosity, little skin irritation, and is not easy to damage the skin when removed. It is widely used in medical tapes and dressings because of its mildness to the skin and good adhesion. Hydrogel has good moisture retention, can provide additional moisture for the skin of newborns, and is often used in medical products that need to provide a moist environment, such as burn dressings. In the actual design process, the material can be selected according to different needs to ensure that the material is friendly to the skin of newborns and does not cause allergies or irritation.
[0034] In addition, a plurality of ventilation holes are provided on the main body layer 1 and the buffer layer 3. The ventilation holes allow air to circulate, reduce moisture and heat accumulation under the skin, and help prevent skin moisture and rashes. The improvement of ventilation performance can increase the comfort of newborns and reduce discomfort caused by long-term sticking. Good air circulation helps maintain normal breathing of the skin and reduces the risk of skin problems. In addition, the ventilation holes help reduce bad odors caused by a closed environment and can also reduce material degradation caused by moisture, thereby improving the durability of the fixing patch.
[0035] Furthermore, the main body layer 1 is provided with a wire groove 102 for placing the connecting wire 6 of the skin temperature probe 5. The wire groove 102 can neatly store the connecting wire 6 of the skin temperature probe 5, avoid the wires being messy, and reduce the risk of entanglement and pulling. The design of the wire groove 102 can make the fixing patch look neater and more orderly, improve the appearance of the product, and simplify the cleaning and maintenance of the fixing patch because the wires are no longer scattered.
[0036] At the same time, a transition slope is provided at the connection position between the wire groove 102 and the fixed groove 101. The transition slope can make the transition of the connecting wire 6 of the skin temperature probe 5 from the fixed groove 101 to the wire groove 102 smoother, reduce the bending stress of the line, and avoid damage to the wire. The slope design can reduce the pressure of the wire at the edge of the fixed groove 101, which helps to protect the insulation layer and internal wire of the wire. In addition, the slope can serve as a natural guide to help users more easily guide the wire into the wire groove 102, thereby improving the overall assembly efficiency.
[0037] In some embodiments, the main body layer 1 is circular. The circular main body layer 1 can better adapt to the natural curve of the newborn's body, especially the armpit area. The circular design helps to more evenly disperse the pressure of the fixation patch on the newborn's skin. In addition, the circular main body layer 1 is relatively smooth, which can reduce the pressure on the newborn's skin. It is also convenient for medical staff to quickly identify the position of the fixing groove 101 and speed up the placement and fixation process of the skin temperature probe 5. In addition, compared with other shapes, the circle is more economical in material use because the edges have no sharp angles or complex contours, which is easier to produce by stamping or other manufacturing processes, improving production efficiency. At the same time, the symmetry of the circle helps to maintain the balance of the fixation patch, whether in use or in storage.
