Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, and particularly relates to a pressure-applying device for parotid gland postoperative incisions. Background Technique
[0002] Parotid gland tumors are a common maxillofacial disease. Surgical resection is the preferred treatment method for parotid gland tumors, and the incidence of postoperative salivary fistula is relatively high. After parotid gland tumor surgery, pressure dressing is used to reduce the occurrence of salivary fistula.
[0003] Currently, most of the pressure-applying methods used clinically are pressure headgear. It uses an elastic bandage to wrap the whole head for pressure application. Although the pressure application effect is achieved, the disadvantages are also obvious: ① There is too much unnecessary pressure application area, which affects the comfort and aesthetics of patients after surgery; ② The pressure application duration is 2-3 weeks after surgery, which affects the patient's return to normal social life and makes it difficult for the patient to adhere to use, thus increasing the incidence of postoperative complications; ③ When using the pressure headgear during eating, it causes limited mouth opening, and there is a risk of nutritional imbalance after surgery. If not used, the continuity of pressure dressing is lost, and the incidence of complications increases; ④ The pressure headgear is affected by the face shape and head shape, and there is a risk of uneven force, and the ideal pressure application effect cannot be achieved.
[0004] With the development of technology, there is a need for a new pressure-applying method in clinical practice to solve the disadvantages of the pressure headgear without affecting pressure application and reduce the occurrence of postoperative complications. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] 1. Aiming at the above technical problems, the utility model provides a pressure-applying device for parotid gland postoperative incisions.
[0006] 2. Technical solution:
[0007] A pressure-applying device for parotid gland postoperative incisions includes a housing that covers the entire parotid gland area of the patient. A cavity is provided inside the housing. An inflation port connecting to its internal cavity is provided on the front of the housing. A one-way inflation valve is provided on the inflation port. A plurality of connection holes communicating with the cavity are evenly distributed on the back of the housing. A small airbag or a hole plug can be inserted into the connection holes. According to the position to be pressure-applied in the parotid gland area of the patient, small airbags are inserted into the connection holes in the corresponding area, and hole plugs are inserted into the non-pressure-applied areas. A flexible pad is provided on the outer circle of the housing. The flexible pad contacts the facial skin of the patient. The flexible pad is connected to a binding and fixing mechanism, and the binding and fixing mechanism fixes the housing on the patient's face.
[0008] Further, the binding and fixing mechanism includes a head-mounted gauze net. Fixing belts are provided at both ends of the head-mounted gauze net. The fixing belt near the housing side is connected to the middle upper position of the flexible pad. The other fixing belt is connected to one end of a traction belt. The other end of the traction belt bypasses the patient's chin position and is connected to the lower right position of the flexible pad.

[0015] 3. Beneficial effects:
[0016] The parotid gland postoperative incision pressure-applying device of the present utility model uniformly arranges a plurality of detachable small airbags on the housing. The small airbags can be installed on the back of the housing corresponding to the area to be pressurized in the patient's parotid gland area. The plug holes on the back of the housing in the areas that do not require pressurization are blocked. The housing is inflated through a one-way inflation valve, and the small airbags will bulge to apply pressure. In this way, it avoids skin damage, pressure sores and other possible postoperative complications caused by pressurizing the areas in the patient's parotid gland area that do not need to be pressurized. In addition, multiple small airbags are used to apply pressure, which fits the facial features better, the pressure application is more uniform, and it is less affected by the shape of the airbag. The restraint and fixation mechanism adopted has a small facial coverage area, is more beautiful, and has less influence on the patient's mouth opening, which is convenient for the patient to eat.

[0022] The present utility model will be specifically described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0023] As shown in the attached Figure 1 to the attached Figure 5 ,
[0024] Embodiment 1:
[0025] A parotid gland postoperative incision compression device includes a housing 1 that covers the entire parotid gland area of the patient. The housing 1 can be made of lightweight plastic material, and can be a rigid material or a flexible material, but the flexibility should not be too soft. There is a cavity inside the housing 1. An inflation port 2 connecting to its internal cavity is provided on the front of the housing 1. A one-way inflation valve is provided on the inflation port 2. A plurality of connection holes 3 communicating with the cavity are evenly distributed on the back of the housing 1. A small airbag 4 or a hole plug 5 can be inserted into the connection holes 3. According to the position to be compressed in the patient's parotid gland area, the small airbag 4 is inserted into the connection holes 3 in the corresponding area, and the hole plug 5 is inserted into the non-compression area. A flexible pad 6 is provided on the outer ring of the housing 1. The flexible pad 6 contacting the patient's facial skin can avoid rigid extrusion. The flexible pad 6 is connected to a binding and fixing mechanism 7, and the binding and fixing mechanism 7 fixes the housing 1 on the patient's face.
[0026] During actual operation, due to the differences in facial features of different patients, the patient first tries on the parotid gland postoperative incision compression device of the present utility model, which is convenient for the doctor to understand the area to be compressed in the patient's parotid gland area corresponding to the housing 1. The doctor installs the small airbag in the area to be compressed, and the connection holes 3 that do not need to install the small airbag are blocked with the hole plug 5. The housing 1 is inflated through the one-way inflation valve. After the small airbag 4 bulges, pressure is applied. Since the detachable small airbag is adopted, the doctor can adjust the size of the compression area according to the actual situation, avoiding damage to the parts that do not need to be compressed.
[0027] Embodiment 2:
[0028] The binding and fixing mechanism 7 includes a head-mounted mesh 71. Fixing bands 72 are provided at both ends of the head-mounted mesh 71. The fixing band 72 close to the housing 1 is connected to the upper middle position of the flexible pad 6, and the fixing band 72 on the other side is connected to one end of a traction band 73. The other end of the traction band 73 bypasses the patient's chin position and is connected to the lower right position of the flexible pad 6. The head-mounted mesh 71, the traction band 73 and the flexible pad 6 form an annular structure that fits around the patient's head and chin positions for fixation. It has high stability, small facial area occlusion, and is more beautiful.
[0029] Preferably, a first through hole 74 for the patient's ear to pass through is provided on the fixing band 72, and a second through hole 75 for the patient's chin to pass through is provided on the traction band 73.
[0030] Example 3:
[0031] The restraint and fixation mechanism 7 further includes a first reinforcement strap 76 and a second reinforcement strap 77. One end of the first reinforcement strap 76 is connected to the upper right position of the flexible pad 6, and the other end is connected to the traction strap 73 after passing above the patient's nose (bridge of the nose position) or below (between the upper lip and the nose); one end of the second reinforcement strap 77 is connected to the lower left position of the flexible pad 6, and the other end is connected to the traction strap 73 after surrounding the back of the patient's head. The first reinforcement strap 76 and the second reinforcement strap 77 reinforce the housing 1. The main reason is that the specific surgical positions of each patient are different, and the positions that need to be pressurized are different. When the housing 1 is designed, it needs to cover the entire parotid region of the patient, so the area is relatively large and multi-directional fixation is required to be more stable.
[0032] Example 4:
[0033] A connection ring 78 is provided on the traction strap 73, and the first reinforcement strap 76 passes through the connection ring 78 and is adhered firmly by Velcro. The traction strap 73 can be fixed by Velcro to adjust the tightness.
[0034] In addition, a through groove for the drainage tube 8 to pass through is provided at the lower left position of the flexible pad 6, which is convenient for placing the drainage tube 8 at the surgical site.
[0035] Example 5:
[0036] The housing 1 is detachably connected to the flexible pad 6 through a zipper, and the housing 1 can be disassembled to facilitate the installation of the small airbag 4 or machine cleaning.
[0037] Example 6:
[0038] The small airbag 4 is a spring-type airbag, and a socket that can be inserted into the connection hole is provided at the end. The spring-type airbag can only expand and contract unidirectionally and will not cause extrusion to other small airbags 4 around it.
