[0018] The following embodiments further illustrate the content of the present utility model, but should not be construed as limiting the present utility model. Without departing from the spirit and essence of the present utility model, any modification or replacement of the methods, steps or conditions of the present utility model shall fall within the scope of the present utility model.

[0019] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 shown, a supine support device for postoperative clavicle fracture, the supine support device for postoperative clavicle fracture includes: a wearing and fixing part, the wearing and fixing part includes a front piece 1 and a rear piece 2, the front piece 1 and the rear piece 2 are fixedly connected into one body at the shoulder and upper arm parts on the surgical side, and a fixing belt 3 is detachably connected to the side of the front piece and the rear piece away from the surgical side;

[0020] A support airbag, the support airbag is sewn in the rear piece, including a first airbag 201 and a second airbag 202, the first airbag 201 is arranged at the shoulder, the second airbag 202 is adjacent to the first airbag 201 and is arranged on the back within the range from the shoulder to the spine, and the support airbag is connected with a manual air pump 4. The front piece and the rear piece surround the clavicle and shoulder on the surgical side of the patient;

[0021] By setting up the wearable fixing part and the supporting airbag, this supine support device after clavicle fracture surgery provides comfortable and effective support for patients during the postoperative recovery process. The design of the wearable fixing part enables the device to fit closely to the patient's body, ensuring its stability when lying flat. The front piece and the back piece are fixedly connected as a whole at the shoulder and upper arm on the surgical side, effectively supporting and protecting the surgical area and reducing pain and discomfort caused by movement.

[0022] The detachable connection design of the fixing belt makes it simple and convenient to wear and take off the device, and also facilitates adjustment according to the patient's body shape and comfort. This flexibility ensures that the device can be applied to patients with different body shapes and needs, improving the comfort and practicality of use. The introduction of the supporting airbag adds an additional supporting function to the device. The first airbag 201 is set at the shoulder, providing direct support for the clavicle and shoulder, which helps to relieve postoperative swelling and pain. The second airbag 202 is set on the back within the range from the shoulder to the spine, further enhancing the supporting effect and enabling the entire upper body to be effectively supported.

[0023] By connecting a manual air pump, the patient can adjust the inflation degree of the airbag at any time according to their own needs, thereby adjusting the supporting strength and comfort. This personalized adjustment method ensures that the device can adapt to the needs of different patients, improving patient satisfaction and rehabilitation effects.

[0024] In some embodiments, the first airbag and the second airbag are interconnected. In this way, only one manual air pump is needed to control the inflation degree of the first airbag and the second airbag at the same time, simplifying the operation process and improving the convenience of use. The patient can, according to their own feeling, adjust the manual air pump to make the two airbags achieve the best supporting effect, thereby effectively relieving the discomfort when lying flat after clavicle fracture surgery.

[0025] In some embodiments, the thickness of the first airbag 201 is greater than the thickness of the second airbag 202.

[0026] This is because after clavicle fracture surgery, patients often curl their hands in front of their chests to relieve the discomfort at the clavicle fracture site. When lying flat, the shoulders will be more suspended than the back. Therefore, a thicker first airbag 201 is needed to provide sufficient support to ensure good protection of the patient's shoulders and avoid increasing the discomfort at the clavicle fracture site due to the action of gravity. The thickness design of the second airbag 202 is relatively thin, aiming to adapt to the back curve and provide necessary support. In this way, when the patient lies on this specially designed support device, both their back and shoulders can be properly supported, thereby reducing the discomfort caused by clavicle fracture.

[0027] In addition, preferably, the material of the support airbag is medical-grade silicone. This ensures that they are both soft and durable, capable of maintaining their shape and elasticity for a long time, providing long-lasting and comfortable support for the patient. At the same time, this design also takes into account the characteristics of breathability and easy cleaning, ensuring that the patient can stay dry and clean during use, further enhancing the user experience.

[0028] Furthermore, the fixing strap includes a connecting strap and an adjustment buckle. The two ends of the connecting strap are respectively connected to the front piece and the rear piece, and the adjustment buckle is provided at the free end of the connecting strap.

[0029] The adjustable adjustment buckle enables the patient to conveniently adjust the tightness of the fixing strap according to their body shape and comfort level. The setting of the connecting strap enables the fixing strap to firmly connect the front piece and the rear piece, while ensuring the comfort and stability of wearing. The patient can easily adjust the length of the fixing strap through the adjustment buckle according to their own situation to achieve the best fixing effect. This design not only improves the practicality of the device but also ensures that the patient can obtain a personalized comfortable experience during use.

[0030] In addition, in some embodiments, ventilation holes are provided on the front piece and the rear piece of the wearing and fixing part to improve breathability during wearing and reduce the discomfort of the patient. The setting of the ventilation holes enables air to circulate inside the device, effectively preventing the generation of stuffiness and dampness, and improving the comfort of the patient. At the same time, the design of the ventilation holes also takes into account aesthetics and practicality, making the device more fashionable and generous in appearance, and also facilitating cleaning and maintenance.

[0031] In some embodiments, the manual air pump is connected to the support airbag through a long hose. The long hose enables the patient to adjust the manual air pump more conveniently by themselves without having to move their body or adjust the position of the device. This design fully considers the actual needs of the patient, making the use of the device more convenient and user-friendly. At the same time, the long hose also has a certain flexibility and can adapt to the adjustment requirements of different angles and positions, further improving the practicality and flexibility of the device.

[0032] In addition, considering that when the patient lies flat, the long hose and the manual air pump 4 are pressed, the long hose and the manual air pump 4 are arranged under the patient's armpit or in front of the patient to ensure that when the patient lies flat, the long hose and the manual air pump will not be pressed by the body, thereby ensuring the stability of the air pressure in the support airbag and avoiding damage to the long hose and the manual air pump.

[0033] In addition, in some embodiments, the front and rear pieces of the wearable fixing part are made of lightweight materials, such as medical-grade nylon or polyester fiber. These materials are not only lightweight and durable, but also have good breathability and comfort, ensuring that the patient can still maintain a sense of comfort when wearing the device for a long time. At the same time, the use of lightweight materials also makes the overall device lighter and more convenient for the patient to move and carry out daily activities.

[0034] In addition, soft pads are provided on the inner sides of the front and rear pieces to reduce the friction and pressure of the device on the skin. The material of the pads is usually selected as skin-friendly and breathable materials, such as medical-grade cotton or sponge, to ensure that the patient can feel a soft and comfortable touch when wearing the device and reduce skin discomfort or injury caused by friction.

[0035] In summary, the design of the supine support device after clavicle fracture surgery in this application aims to provide comfortable and effective support for patients. Through the combination of the wearable fixing part and the support airbag, the device can closely fit the patient's body and provide necessary support and protection for the clavicle and shoulder. At the same time, the device also takes into account multiple aspects such as breathability, comfort, and adjustability to ensure that the patient can obtain the best user experience during the postoperative recovery process. This practical and user-friendly design will help improve the rehabilitation effect and quality of life of patients.

[0036] Although the present utility model has been described in detail above with general descriptions, specific embodiments and tests, based on the present utility model, some modifications or improvements can be made to it, which are obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, these modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model all fall within the scope of protection required by the present utility model.
