Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to a prone head support device. Background Art
[0002] Prone position as a method of improving ventilation was first proposed by Bryan in the 1970s as a method for treating severe hypoxemia in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). In recent years, prone position has become an important clinical treatment method. According to the recommendations of the ARDS treatment guidelines, the patient's prone ventilation time must be more than 12 hours to achieve a good therapeutic effect. However, during long-term prone ventilation treatment, the face is prone to pressure injuries, and the eyes are under pressure for a long time and there is a risk of blindness. Patients also have endotracheal tubes, gastric tubes and other tubes, which have a greater risk of slipping and bending. Utility Model Content

[0023] Example 1
[0024] A head support device for prone position, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, the support 1 includes a retractable support 1, the support 1 includes a support body 101, a gas pressure rod 102 is fixedly connected to the top of the support body 101, and an adjustment rod 103 for adjusting the overall height of the support is provided on the gas pressure rod 102, and the bracket 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the gas pressure rod 102. The adjustment rod for adjusting the height of the gas pressure rod belongs to the prior art and will not be repeated here. For details, please refer to Chinese patent CN211154675U or other prior art. The gas pressure rod 102 can easily adjust the height so that the entire head support device can more easily maintain the patient's comfortable functional position.
[0025] The bracket 2 is a circular structure, with a head pad 3 fixed on the top and a gap between the head pad 3. Specifically, three fixing rods 6 are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the bracket 2. The three fixing rods 6 play a fixing role and provide space for the oral and nasal endotracheal tube to ensure that it is not bent. The top of the fixing rod 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the head pad 3. The head pad 3 is a square structure, and four corners are provided with anti-collision corner guards (not shown in the figure). The anti-collision corner guards can be installed or not according to specific usage conditions. A C-shaped hollow part 4 is provided in the middle of the head pad 3. The C-shaped hollowing ensures that fragile parts such as eyes, nose and lips are not oppressed. A flexible headrest 5 (the headrest is also a C-shaped structure) is provided at the edge of the hollow part 4. The filling of the flexible headrest 5 is polyurethane. The fabric of the flexible headrest 5 uses 93% polyester fiber and 7% spandex. The soft material can well prevent pressure injuries on compressed parts of the face. The flexible headrest 5 is detachably connected to the edge of the hollow part 4. Specifically, the edge of the hollow part 4 is provided with a hook surface of Velcro, and the flexible headrest 5 is provided with a fur surface of Velcro, so that the C-shaped headrest is easier to fix in place.
[0026] The bottom of the pillar body 101 is fixedly connected with a support leg 7 for supporting the overall structure. There are five support legs 7 and they are evenly distributed around the pillar 1. The bottom of the support legs 7 is provided with a universal wheel 8 with a self-locking structure. The five-claw fixing device (five support legs) is equipped with a universal wheel with a self-locking function, which allows the device to be easily moved on the basis of stability, and the self-locking structure is opened when in use to prevent the entire device from moving.
