Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device for electrocardiogram monitoring instruments. Background Art

[0002] An electrocardiograph or an electrocardiogram monitor is a commonly used instrument for monitoring and recording the electrocardiogram activities of patients. It is connected to electrodes through lead wires, and the electrodes are fixed at specific parts of the patient's body according to the intercostal positioning of the patient to achieve electrocardiogram measurement or electrocardiogram monitoring. In actual operation, the electrodes are usually directly adsorbed and fixed on the patient's body. Since the patient generally cannot maintain the same posture for a long time during measurement, when the patient moves, the electrodes are likely to be displaced or fall off. And when the contact between the electrodes and the skin is poor, for example, if the body part of the patient where the electrodes are fixed has scars, the electrodes cannot be adsorbed firmly, so the patient needs to be adsorbed repeatedly, which not only leads to low measurement efficiency, but even delays the treatment time when rescuing patients. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device for electrocardiogram monitoring instruments to solve the problem that the electrodes are likely to be displaced or fall off relative to the patient's skin in the prior art.

When the wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device is in the expanded state, the plurality of hollow parts of the wearable chest-binding body are expanded by force, and the plurality of electrode patches respectively pass through the hollow parts at corresponding positions and are fixed on the patient's skin; when the wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device is in the monitoring state, the plurality of hollow parts of the wearable chest-binding body rebound, and the wearable chest-binding body covers the plurality of electrode patches.

[0005] Wherein, openings are provided at both ends of the wearable chest-binding body, and the openings penetrate through the wearable chest-binding body longitudinally.

[0008] Among them, the number of the plurality of electrode sheets is 6 or 12.

[0009] Among them, the lead wire passes through the hollow portion of the wearable chest binder body and is connected to the electrocardiogram monitoring instrument.

[0010] Among them, when the wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device is in a monitoring state, the hollow portion penetrated by the electrode sheet covers the edge portion of the electrode sheet through the elastic fabric around the hollow portion.

[0011] According to the technical solution of the present invention, by using an elastic fabric to make the wearable chest binder body and arranging a plurality of hollow portions on the wearable chest binder body, the electrode sheets can pass through the hollow portions and be fixed on the patient's body, and the wearable chest binder body covers the electrode sheets, so as to fix the electrode sheets on the patient's body more tightly and stably.

[0012] The drawings described herein are used to provide a further understanding of the present invention, and constitute a part of this application. The schematic embodiments of the present invention and their descriptions are used to explain the present invention, and do not constitute an improper limitation of the present invention. In the drawings:

[0014] Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of the other side of the wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device worn on a patient according to an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Description of the Embodiments

[0015] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the specific embodiments of the present invention and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0016] The following will detail the technical solutions provided by each embodiment of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings.

[0017] According to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device for an electrocardiogram monitoring instrument. The electrocardiogram monitoring instrument forms 12 leads or 18 leads through the limb leads plus the chest leads to comprehensively and three-dimensionally present the heart condition of the patient. Among them, the exploration electrodes of the chest leads need to be fixed at specific positions on the patient's chest. However, due to different skin conditions of the patient's chest, electrode aging, or the patient's inability to maintain the same posture for a long time, etc., the exploration electrodes are extremely likely to fall off the patient, and need to be fixed repeatedly, which leads to low efficiency of electrocardiogram monitoring and even delays the treatment time of the patient. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device that can fix the electrode patches on the patient and can adjust the position of the electrode patches according to the patient's body shape to avoid the problem of low work efficiency caused by frequent detachment of the electrode patches.

[0018] Combined with reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes: a wearable chest-binding body 1 and a plurality of electrode patches 2. The wearable chest-binding body 1 can be generally in a tubular shape that penetrates up and down and is worn on the chest position of the patient, and it can cover all the electrode patches of the chest leads while avoiding affecting other medical devices arranged on the upper body of the patient. Specifically, the wearable chest-binding body 1 is made of elastic fabric or elastic textile. The wearable chest-binding body 1 includes an upper edge 11 and a lower edge 12. According to the trunk shape of the upper body of the human body, the wearable chest-binding body 1 is designed to be wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, that is, the circumference of the upper edge 11 is greater than the circumference of the lower edge 12, and the wearable chest-binding body 1 gradually converges along the direction from the upper edge 11 to the lower edge 12. In the embodiment of the present application, the wearable chest-binding body 1 can be a chest binder provided with an opening. An opening that longitudinally penetrates the wearable chest-binding body 1 is provided on the wearable chest-binding body 1. At the opening near the left and right ends or both sides of the wearable chest-binding body 1, mutually adapted fixed connection structures 14 are relatively arranged. The fixed connection structure 14 can be a magic tape, a repeatedly adhesive patch, a snap structure, a zipper structure, etc., which can be fixed on the fabric and realize the repeated fixed connection between fabrics. During actual wearing, the wearable chest-binding body 1 wraps the chest position of the patient, the upper edge 11 is located above the patient's chest, the lower edge 12 is located below the patient's chest, and the opening can be arranged on the side of the patient's back where there are no chest lead electrode patches to avoid affecting the fixation of the electrode patches. In other embodiments of the present application, the wearable chest-binding body 1 can also be a pullover chest-binding structure without an opening.

[0019] The wearable chest binder body 1 is also provided with a plurality of hollowed-out parts 13 evenly distributed on its surface. The number of the hollowed-out parts 13 is greater than the number of the electrode patches 2. The hollowed-out parts 13 can also be referred to as mesh structures. Since different patients have different body shapes, the positions of the electrode patches set according to intercostal positioning are also different. Therefore, after the patient wears the wearable chest binder body 1, appropriate hollowed-out parts 13 can be selected according to the actual body shape and intercostal positioning of the patient, and the electrode patches 2 can pass through the selected hollowed-out parts 13 and be fixed on the patient's body. Specifically, both the hollowed-out parts 13 and the wearable chest binder body 1 have elasticity. When stretching the wearable chest binder body 1, the hollowed-out parts 13 can be expanded by force. At this time, the electrode patches 2 can pass through the selected hollowed-out parts 13 and be fixed on the patient's skin. When releasing the wearable chest binder body 1, the hollowed-out parts 13 can automatically rebound, and the elastic fabric around the hollowed-out parts 13 covers the edge parts of the electrode patches 2, thereby fixing the electrode patches 2 on the patient's body and making the electrode patches 2 closely fit the patient's skin. In the embodiment of the present application, the shape of the hollowed-out parts 13 is rectangular, and in other embodiments of the present application, the shape of the hollowed-out parts 13 can also be circular, triangular, hexagonal, octagonal or other shapes.

[0020] The plurality of electrode patches 2 are connected to an electrocardiogram monitoring instrument (not shown in the figure) through lead wires (not shown in the figure). Since the number and positions of the hollowed-out parts 13 are not set on the wearable chest binder body 1 according to a specific lead mode, this wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device can be applicable to any lead mode, such as 12-lead electrocardiogram or 18-lead electrocardiogram. That is, the number of the electrode patches 2 for chest leads can be 6 or 12. The electrode patches 2 can be patch electrodes or adsorption electrodes. When the adsorption electrodes are selected as the electrode patches, this wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device can be reused after disinfection to be applicable to patients with conventional diseases; when the patch electrodes are selected as the electrode patches, this wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device can be discarded as medical waste after use to be applicable to patients with skin infections or severe respiratory infectious diseases, thereby reducing cross-infection among patients.

[0021] In actual use, the wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device includes an expanded state and a monitoring state. First, the wearable chest binder body 1 is worn on the patient's chest position, so that the wearable chest binder body 1 is closely attached to the patient's skin; then, according to the different body types of the patient and the actual intercostal positioning, a suitable hollow part 13 is selected, and the wearable chest binder body 1 is stretched to make the wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device in the expanded state. At this time, the hollow part 13 is expanded by force, and each electrode patch 2 passes through the selected hollow part 13 and is fixed on the patient's skin. The lead wire connected to the electrode patch 2 passes through the hollow part 13 and is connected to the electrocardiogram monitoring instrument; then, the wearable chest binder body 1 is loosened to make it closely attached to the patient's skin again. The hollow part 13 automatically rebounds with the wearable chest binder body 1, and the wearable chest binder body 1 covers and fixes the electrode patch 2 fixed on the patient's skin. At this time, the wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device is in the monitoring state and can be used to monitor the patient's heart condition. After the monitoring is completed, the electrode patch 2 can be removed from the patient by stretching the wearable chest binder body 1 again.

[0022] According to the embodiments of the present application, by providing a wearable chest binder body with a plurality of hollow parts, the electrode patches can pass through the hollow parts and be fixed on the patient's skin. At the same time, the elastic fabric around the corresponding hollow parts can cover the electrode patches to further fix the positions of the electrode patches. Without considering problems such as different intercostal positioning or skin conditions caused by different body type differences among different patients, the displacement or detachment of the electrode patches during electrocardiogram monitoring is avoided, and the monitoring efficiency is improved. This wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device can be applied to any lead method for electrocardiogram monitoring, avoiding the need to use a corresponding wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device after selecting a lead method, and enhancing the versatility of the wearable electrocardiogram monitoring device.
