Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a decompression protection device for diabetic plantar ulcers. Background Art

[0002] Diabetes often leads to many complications as the disease worsens, and diabetic foot is one of them. Patients with diabetic foot suffer from ulceration at the original stress points of the feet, which makes their walking gait unbalanced, leading to increased pressure on the soles of the feet and the formation of ulcers on the soles of the feet.

[0003] Therefore, in order to promote the patient's foot rehabilitation, it is urgent to design a foot protection device for diabetic foot patients that can adjust the patient's gait and reduce the plantar pressure. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a diabetic plantar ulcer decompression protection device which helps to maintain a stable gait of a patient and reduce the pressure on the plantar wound surface.

[0007] Preferably, the soft material protective gear is made of elastic thermoplastic sheet material.

[0008] Preferably, the supporting insole is made by sewing woven fabric, and is covered with a supporting material layer.

[0009] Preferably, the supporting material layer is multiple layers of linen sheets or rubber sheets stacked together.

[0010] Preferably, the opening of the avoidance groove gradually narrows from the top to the bottom.

[0011] Preferably, the thickness of the supporting insole is 0.5 cm-1.0 cm.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0013] When the utility model is used, the decompression protection device for diabetic plantar ulcer is firstly removed from the woven soft pad at the corresponding position of the supporting insole according to the ulcer position on the sole of the patient's foot, and then the soft material protective device is worn on the patient's calf and foot, and the sole of the patient is placed on the supporting insole, so that only the sole of the foot with the ulcerated wound is in contact with the woven soft pad, and the sole of the foot with the ulcer is placed in a suspended state in the avoidance groove, and finally the soft material protective device is fastened to the patient by Velcro straps.

[0014] Obviously, the diabetic plantar ulcer decompression protection device of the present invention supports the patient's calf and ankle through soft material protectors, and uses Velcro straps to assist in adjusting the patient's foot gait, so as to reduce the pressure on the foot ulcer surface; at the same time, the provision of the woven cushion enables the patient's sole to be decompressed by the elasticity of the internal cotton wool ball, thereby avoiding direct pressure contact between the plantar wound and the supporting insole, reducing the pressure load of wound healing, and promoting the recovery of the plantar wound; in addition, when the patient's plantar wound has already developed an ulcer, the woven cushion can be removed from the avoidance groove, so that when the patient uses the diabetic plantar ulcer decompression protection device of the present invention, the sole of the foot is placed in the avoidance groove in a suspended state, thereby promoting the recovery of the plantar ulcer surface without contact and pressure.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0025] In addition, in the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, “plurality” means two or more.

[0026] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The utility model provides a decompression protection device for diabetic plantar ulcers, comprising a soft material protector 1 and a support insole 2. The soft material protector 1 is provided with a wearing groove (not shown in the figure) that can accommodate the patient's calf and foot at the same time, and the soft material protector 1 is fixed with Velcro straps 3 in sequence at the instep wearing position, ankle wearing position and calf wearing position of the wearing groove, the support insole 2 is arranged at the sole position of the foot in the wearing groove, and the support insole 2 is provided with avoidance grooves 4 at the contact position with the sole of the foot at the sole position and the contact position with the sole of the foot at the heel position, respectively, and the avoidance groove 4 is removably filled with a woven soft pad (not shown in the figure), and the woven soft pad is filled with cotton wool balls.

[0027] When using the diabetic plantar ulcer decompression protection device of this embodiment, first remove the woven pad at the corresponding position on the supporting insole 2 according to the ulcer position on the patient's sole, then wear the soft material protector 1 on the patient's calf and foot, and make the patient's sole be located on the supporting insole 2, so that only the sole of the foot with the ulcerated wound is in contact with the woven pad, and the ulcerated sole is placed in the avoidance groove 4 in a suspended state, and finally the soft material protector 1 is fastened to the patient by the Velcro strap 3.

[0028] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2Obviously, the diabetic plantar ulcer decompression protection device of the present embodiment supports the patient's calf and ankle through the soft material protector 1, and assists in adjusting the patient's foot gait with the help of the Velcro strap 3 to reduce the pressure on the foot ulcer surface; at the same time, the setting of the woven cushion enables the patient's sole to be decompressed by the elasticity of the internal cotton wool ball, avoiding direct pressure contact between the sole wound and the supporting insole 2, reducing the pressure load of wound healing, and promoting the recovery of the sole wound; in addition, when the patient's sole wound has ulcers, the woven cushion can be removed from the avoidance groove 4, so that when the patient uses the diabetic plantar ulcer decompression protection device of the present embodiment, the sole of the foot is placed in the avoidance groove 4 in a suspended state, thereby promoting the recovery of the sole ulcer surface without contact and pressure.

[0029] Preferably, the soft material protective gear 1 is made of an elastic thermoplastic sheet to ensure that the material strength and durability of the soft material protective gear 1 are sufficient while reducing the weight of the soft material protective gear 1, so that the patient can save more effort when wearing and walking; at the same time, based on the elastic characteristics of the material of the soft material protective gear 1 itself, the patient can have a better experience when wearing and walking.

[0030] Preferably, the support insole 2 is made of woven fabric and is coated with a support material layer. In extreme cases, diabetic foot patients will have ulcers on the soles of the soles and heels. At this time, the soles of the arches will bear the main walking pressure. The support insole 2 is made of woven fabric to improve the comfort of the sole skin when it contacts the support insole 2, and the support material layer in the support insole 2 can better withstand the pressure from the arches and ensure the patient's gait stability.

[0031] Preferably, the supporting material layer is multiple layers of linen sheets or rubber sheets stacked together.

[0032] Preferably, see Figure 2 The opening of the avoidance groove 4 is gradually narrowed from the top to the bottom, so that after the patient's sole presses down the textile cushion to completely flatten the cotton wool ball, it can contact the sloped side of the avoidance groove 4 to improve walking comfort.

[0033] Preferably, the thickness of the supporting insole 2 is 0.5 cm-1.0 cm.

[0034] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principle of the present invention. These improvements and substitutions should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
