Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical care appliances, and particularly relates to a support tool for patients with lower limb paralysis. Background Art
[0002] Patients with lower limb paralysis, high paraplegia or coma, who are bedridden for a long time, are prone to foot stiffness, and finally joint stiffness and loss of joint function, which brings difficulties to future functional reconstruction and recovery. Through scientific nursing, the situation of joint deformation can be alleviated. For example, the posture maintaining pad disclosed in the Chinese utility model patent No. 200920067572.3, with the authorization announcement date of November 11, 2009, is used for supporting the lying posture. For such a scheme, the nursing staff need to pay long-term attention to the patient's posture and have high professionalism and execution ability. When the patient lies flat, it is placed at the corresponding position, and there are clear requirements for the height of the pad and the pressure of the pad on the human body. The patient's caregivers often lack the corresponding nursing knowledge and cannot execute the support for the patient for a long time and accurately.
[0003] At the same time, the above scheme has no restraint on the feet. Without movement for a long time, the toes in the lying position are in a downward state for a long time. Even if the patient's condition improves, foot drop will still affect the patient's normal walking. Therefore, preventing foot drop is also an important problem in the nursing of paralyzed patients. The Chinese utility model patent No. 201120035870.4, with the authorization announcement date of September 14, 2011, discloses a foot drop prevention bracket, including a bottom frame and a foot frame. The bottom frame is placed flat on the bed, the foot frame is perpendicular to the bed, the bottom frame is placed under the heel, and the foot frame is placed on the side of the sole. The foot frame is used to restrain the posture of the foot to make the sole perpendicular to the leg. The patient needs to change the posture every two hours during nursing. When the patient lies on the back, the toes are upward, and when lying on the side, the toes face left or right. The above scheme bracket cannot follow the movement of the foot, so it can only be used for the supine posture and has great limitations in use. Content of the Utility Model

[0023] The following further illustrates the present utility model in conjunction with embodiments. The purpose is only to better understand the content of the present utility model. Therefore, the examples given do not limit the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] For patients with long - term bedridden due to lower - limb paralysis, both legs fall on the bed. If in a fixed position for a long time, some muscles in a fixed part are in a stretched state for a long time. Especially when in the lateral position, the upper - side leg is stretched more severely and the joint is under greater stress. During nursing, the joint position should be elevated to reduce the joint stress. The hip joint bears a relatively large downward pressure of the body weight and is prone to pressure - induced injury; if only the knee joint is elevated, the ankle joint position of the foot is relatively low and the lateral leg muscles are under greater tensile force; if only the ankle joint is elevated, the knee joint is likely to be suspended and is easily injured.
[0025] The present utility model provides a scheme for overall support of the lower limbs, including a first support body 1 for supporting the knee joint; a second support body 2 for supporting the foot and protecting the shape of the ankle joint. The first support body 1 and the second support body 2 must be used in cooperation to fully achieve the protective effect on the patient.
[0026] See the appendix Figure 4 、 Figure 5 A support device for patients with lower - limb paralysis provided by the present utility model includes
[0027] The first support body 1 includes an A gasket 101 and a B gasket 102, and the sides of the A gasket 101 and the B gasket 102 are connected;
[0028] The second support body 2 includes a sole pad 201 and a foot pad 202. The sole pad 201 is a long strip-shaped soft pad, which is arranged under the lower side of the ankle. There are two foot pads 202, which are respectively arranged at the bottom of the foot. The foot pad 202 is a rectangular plate, and its length and width are adapted to the foot and fixed to the foot. First connecting bands 3 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the foot pad 202, and second connecting bands 4 are symmetrically arranged at the upper and lower ends of the foot pad 202. The foot pad 202 is connected to the sole pad 201 through the first connecting band 3 or the second connecting band 4.
[0029] In this solution, through the relative acting force between the first connecting band 3 or the second connecting band 4 and the sole of the foot, the foot pad is kept upright and pressed on the sole of the foot, so that the sole of the foot is in a state perpendicular to the leg, avoiding foot drop.
[0030] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 , the sole pad 201 is 60 cm long, 10 cm wide and 9 cm thick; circular depressions 203 are respectively arranged at positions close to both ends. The outer skin is a suede cloth made of polyester fiber, the upper layer of the filling core is cotton wadding, and the lower layer is 5 cm high-density sponge. The circular depression 203 is the placement position of the outer ankle of the foot in the lateral position, preventing pressure injury.
[0031] Specifically, the length and width of the foot pad 202 are adapted to the length and width of one foot. The outer cover of the foot pad 202 is a suede cloth made of polyester fiber. A sponge cushion layer is arranged inside the outer cover, and the filling core of the outer cover is a hard board.
[0032] As an option, a pair of first connecting seats 5 and a pair of second connecting seats 6 are arranged on the sole pad 201. The first connecting seat 5 is used to connect with the first connecting band 3 or the second connecting band 4 of the left foot sole pad, and the second connecting seat 6 is used for the first connecting band 3 or the second connecting band 4 of the right foot support pad; a mother-son snap button 7 is also provided, the sub-button of which is connected to the first connecting seat 5, and the mother-button of which is connected to the free end of the first connecting band 3 or the second connecting band 4. The lengths of the first connecting band 3 and the second connecting band 4 can be adjusted, such as setting a figure-eight length adjustment buckle.
[0033] As an option, the first connecting band 3 and the second connecting band 4 can be selected as elastic drawstrings, or a section of spring can be used to replace part of the length of the band, so that the foot pad 202 can have an adaptive effect on the pressure on the foot, fit more stably with the sole of the foot, and is not easy to shift when being impacted.
[0034] As an option, the ends of the first connecting band 3, the second connecting band 4, the first connecting seat 5 and the second connecting seat 6 are connected to the foot pad 202 and the sole pad 201 through rivets and rotate around the rivets.
[0035] As an option, the foot pad 202 is fixed to the sole of the foot through an elastic binding band.
[0036] The second support body 2 is used to constrain the foot posture, mainly for fixing the angle between the foot and the leg. One second support body 2 is provided on one foot. The sole pad 201 of the second support body 2 is always located under the ankle, and the instep pad 202 rotates with the foot.
[0037] For the first support body 1 of the present utility model, circular hollow holes 105 are also provided on the A gasket 101 and the B gasket 102, and the size of the circular hollow holes 105 is adapted to the popliteal fossa position of the human body.
[0038] Optionally, the outer covers of the A gasket 101, the B gasket 102 of the first support body 1 are both flocked fabrics made of polyester fiber, and the filling cores are both cotton wads. The side parts of the outer covers of the A gasket 101 and the B gasket 102 are sewn and fixed.
[0039] Furthermore, the first support body 1 further includes a floating pad, which is composed of a C gasket 103 and a D gasket 104. The outer covers of the C gasket 103 and the D gasket 104 are both flocked fabrics made of polyester fiber, and the filling cores are both cotton wads. The side parts of the outer covers of the C gasket 103 and the D gasket 104 are sewn and fixed to the sewing positions of the A gasket 101 and the B gasket 102.
[0040] The total length of the first support body 1 is 60 cm, the total width is 30 cm, and the total thickness is 9 cm. The A gasket 101 and the B gasket 102 are located in the lower layer, and the thickness is set to 5 cm. The C gasket 103 and the D gasket 104 are located in the upper layer, and the thickness is set to 4 cm. The lower layer is always placed under the body, and the upper layer is designed to be placed between the two legs for supporting the distance between the two knee joints.
[0041] In the supine position,
[0042] For the first support body 1, the A gasket 101 and the B gasket 102 in the lower layer, and the C gasket 103 and the D gasket 104 in the upper layer are unfolded and placed under the two knees, so that the knee joints are slightly bent upward;
[0043] For the second support body 2, the sole pad 201 is placed under the lower leg and is connected to the sole pad 201 by the first connecting band 3. The first connecting band 3 is adjusted so that the instep pad 202 stands upright and abuts against the sole of the foot and pushes the sole of the foot to a vertical state.
[0044] In principle, it is required to change the body position every 2 hours, but it needs to be appropriately adjusted according to the patient's age, nutritional status, etc. When changing from the supine position to the lateral position, first stand up the C gasket 103 and the D gasket 104, push the patient's body to lie on the side, and the popliteal fossa falls on the position of the circular hollow hole 105. The C gasket 103 and the D gasket 104 of the first support body 1 fall to the side with the movement of the two knees and remain between the two knees, so that the distance between the two knees approaches the state when relaxed in the upright state, avoiding the sinking of the upper knee joint and reducing the pulling force on the hip joint and the thigh muscles;
[0045] After the body rotates, the lateral femoral condyle falls into the circular concave pit 203. For the second support body 2, since the foot pad 202 is movably connected to the sole pad 201, when the posture changes, the lower leg rotates on the top of the sole pad 201 and thus always remains on the upper side of the sole pad 201. The foot pad 202 tilts and falls sideways as the sole of the foot rotates, releasing the first connecting band 3 and instead using the second connecting band 4 to connect to the first connecting seat 5 and the second connecting seat 6, and adjusting the length of the second connecting band 4 to keep the foot pad 202 restraining the sole of the foot in a state perpendicular to the leg.
[0046] The first support body supports under the lower side of the body and between the two knees to prevent pressure injuries. The deformation of the support body is convenient, saving the trouble for the caregiver to reposition the cotton pad every time the patient turns over; the second support body 2 can still maintain the restraint on the joint after the posture changes, and the patient can wear it for a long time, which is more practical.
[0047] The above are only the preferred and feasible embodiments of the present utility model, and do not limit the scope of rights of the present utility model accordingly. Any equivalent changes made by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present utility model are included within the scope of rights of the present utility model.
