Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular relates to an ice stick fixing rack for alleviating the thirst of critically ill patients. Background Art

[0002] Thirst is common in critically ill patients and is intense and painful. 70.8% of critically ill patients believe that thirst is the most common symptom of ICU discomfort. The thirst of critically ill patients has its own particularity. The thirst caused by electrolyte imbalance, fasting and water restriction, special medication, endotracheal intubation, mechanical ventilation, CRRT treatment, etc. cannot be relieved by drinking water. Therefore, menthol popsicles are used in the department to relieve the thirst of patients.

[0003] For patients who are restricted in water, fasting, or undergoing gastrointestinal decompression, a popsicle contains approximately 5 ml of water, which places little burden on volume control and is effective in relieving thirst. Low temperature and menthol can activate the cold-sensitive channel receptors of the trigeminal nerve in the oropharynx and reduce thirst.

[0004] The current situation of using menthol popsicles to relieve patients' thirst is that for ICU patients, even if they are conscious and can cooperate, their limbs are very weak and they cannot use popsicles independently and need the assistance of nursing staff. However, in clinical practice, one nursing staff member takes care of multiple patients at the same time and cannot accompany them throughout the whole process, resulting in the patient's inability to use popsicles independently, thus failing to achieve the intended purpose. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the problems existing in the background technology, the inventor designed a popsicle holder for relieving the thirst of critically ill patients. The designed holder clamps the popsicles and can adjust the position of the popsicles. It is flexible to use and does not require the assistance of nursing staff, completely overcoming the problem of critically ill patients' inability to use popsicles.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:

[0007] A popsicle fixing rack for relieving the thirst of critically ill patients, the fixing rack comprising a connecting seat and a fixing seat, a first universal ball being embedded in the connecting seat, a second universal ball being embedded in the fixing seat, the first universal ball and the second universal ball being connected by a connecting rod, a fixing hole being provided on the fixing seat, and the fixing hole being used for fixing the popsicle.

[0008] Furthermore, the middle of the connecting seat is a U-shaped groove, and the first universal ball is embedded in the U-shaped groove to achieve damped rotation.

[0009] Furthermore, the fixing seat is provided with a universal ball groove, the second universal ball is embedded in the universal ball groove, and a fastening bolt is provided on the side of the fixing seat to apply pressure to the second universal ball.

[0010] Furthermore, the fixing hole on the fixing seat adopts an internal thread, and the wooden handle of the popsicle is slightly smaller than the fixing hole. The round wooden handle can be screwed into the fixing hole of the internal thread, and is firmly fixed without falling off.

[0011] Furthermore, the connecting seat is connected to the bedside bracket or the movable arm, and the rear portion of the connecting seat can be connected with various bedside brackets or movable arms, thereby improving the versatility of the product of the utility model.

[0012] Furthermore, the connecting rod adopts a telescopic rod or a soft material, which can adjust the distance between the connecting seat and the fixing seat and also meet the need for distance adjustment. The soft material is easy to bend.

[0013] The following beneficial effects can be obtained through the above technical solution:

[0014] The utility model is installed on a bedside bracket or a movable bracket, and the wooden handle of the popsicle is inserted into the fixing seat, and the distance and angle between the connecting seat and the fixing seat are adjusted so that the popsicle is just in the patient's mouth. In this way, the critically ill patient can eat the menthol popsicle when the patient is weak in limbs and does not need help from others. The utility model uses the menthol popsicle to relieve the patient's thirst with the best effect.

[0015] The utility model has the advantages of simple overall structure, flexible use, strong versatility, and is suitable for promotion and transformation. Currently, it has been applied in departments to good effect and is welcomed and praised by patients. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0022] The following is combined with Figure 1-4 The utility model is further described with embodiments:

[0023] Example 1: Figure 1As shown, a popsicle fixing frame for relieving thirst of critically ill patients, the fixing frame includes a connecting seat 1, the middle of the connecting seat 1 is a U-shaped groove, the first universal ball 2 is embedded in the U-shaped groove, and can achieve damped rotation, that is, it needs a little force to rotate, and can reach a stable state after rotation, preventing the first universal ball 2 from rotating by itself, and playing a good stability. The first universal ball 2 is connected to the second universal ball 4 through a connecting rod 3. The length of the connecting rod in this embodiment is about 20-30cm. The second universal ball 4 is embedded in the groove of the fixing seat 6. The side of the fixing seat 6 is provided with a bolt through hole, and the fastening bolt 5 is screwed into the bolt through hole. The fastening bolt 5 has a handle. Turning the handle makes the front end of the fastening bolt 5 press on the second universal ball 4, so as to constrain and fix the second universal ball 4; a fixing hole 7 is provided on the fixing seat 6, and the wooden handle of the popsicle 8 is inserted into the fixing hole 7.

[0024] Based on the above embodiment: the connecting rod 3 can adopt a telescopic rod, which can adjust the distance between the connecting seat and the fixing seat and also meet the need for distance adjustment.

[0025] Based on the above embodiment: the fixing hole 7 is internally threaded, and its inner diameter is the same as the wooden handle of the popsicle, so that the wooden handle is screwed into the fixing hole 7, which is more secure than direct insertion.

[0026] Embodiment 2: Figure 2 As shown, on the basis of Example 1, fixing holes 7 are set at both ends of the fixing seat 6, and the fixing holes can extend all the way to the surface of the second universal ball 4. In this way, after the wooden handle of the popsicle 8 is inserted into the fixing hole 7, the tightening bolt 5 applies pressure to the second universal ball 4, which also allows the second universal ball 4 to squeeze the wooden handle of the popsicle 8, thereby better ensuring that the popsicle 8 is firm and stable.

[0027] Based on Examples 1 and 2, Figure 3 As shown, the connecting seat 1 of the utility model is connected to the movable bracket at the head of the bed, and the bracket is clamped on the edge of the bed or the head of the bed by a clamp. The movable bracket shown in this embodiment and the accompanying drawings is connected to the utility model. In actual applications, all kinds of brackets can be used in conjunction with the utility model.

[0028] The product of the utility model is designed by the inventor based on the problems of the prior art, and the product has a good use effect and is feasible for transformation. The product has been partially applied in the department. The connecting seat 1 of the utility model is connected to the movable bracket at the head of the bed. The connection method can be threaded docking or plug-in. The wooden handle of the menthol popsicle is inserted into the fixing hole 7, and the angles of the connecting seat and the fixing seat are adjusted so that the menthol popsicle 8 is close to the patient's mouth, so that the patient can eat the menthol popsicle.

[0029] The above are all preferred implementations of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this technical field, without departing from the principle of the present invention, various equivalent modifications to the present invention belong to the protection scope of the claims attached to this application.
