Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a medical appliance, in particular to a fixing device for the head, neck and shoulders of a patient after spinal surgery. Background Art
[0002] After spinal surgery, the patient needs to lie on the back and the neck and spine of the patient need to be braked. The existing method: rice bags are respectively placed on both sides of the patient's head, so that the patient's head is clamped between the two rice bags, thereby preventing the head of the bedridden patient from shifting, and thus protecting the spine from shifting or twisting with the swing of the head.
[0003] Therefore, after spinal surgery, the restriction of the head is a relatively important matter. The Chinese utility model patent of CN218636260U announced on March 17, 2023 discloses an automatic induction type inflatable neck pillow for after cervical vertebra surgery, which includes an outer pillowcase with a square structure and a pillow core A, a pillow core B and an airbag arranged inside the outer pillowcase. The outer pillowcase is integrally arranged and has a left pillow body, a middle pillow body and a right pillow body. The middle pillow body is used to support the human cervical vertebra and head. The middle pillow body has a brain support area and a neck support area connected up and down. The brain support area and the neck support area are both filled with pillow core A; the left pillow body and the right pillow body are distributed on both sides of the middle pillow body. The left pillow body and the right pillow body are both provided with a side sleeping area and an airbag placement area. The side sleeping area is filled with pillow core B, and the airbag is placed in the airbag placement area. This utility model cannot relatively fix the patient's head and torso, and it is difficult to restrict the rotation of the patient's head. Especially when the patient is asleep, it is easy to turn the head to the side, causing the cervical vertebra and spine to twist, which is not conducive to surgical rehabilitation. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a fixing device for the head, neck and shoulders of a patient after spinal surgery. Through clamping by a shell and a pressing plate, the patient's head and torso can be relatively fixed, and the head of the supine patient can be forced to face upward, avoiding the spine from twisting when the patient turns the head to the side during sleep, which is conducive to surgical rehabilitation.
[0005] In order to achieve the above invention purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] A head, neck and shoulder fixation device for patients after spinal surgery, comprising a housing and a pressing plate. The housing includes a head housing and a body housing. The head housing is provided with a head groove on its upper surface. On both sides of one end of the body housing close to the head housing, there are shoulder walls respectively. The patient's head is placed in the head groove and the scapulas are placed on the body housing. The inner peripheral surface of the head groove is provided with a head bladder. The head bladder is in a C shape and wraps around the outer periphery of the patient's head. The two ends of the head bladder are respectively located on both sides of the patient's head. The head bladder is provided with a first inflation port. When inflated through the first inflation port, the head bladder expands, causing the inner diameter of the head bladder to decrease and clamping the patient's head. On both sides of one end of the pressing plate, there are shoulder straps respectively. On the outer sides of the two shoulder walls of the body housing, there are shoulder buckles respectively. The two shoulder straps respectively wind around the shoulders of both sides of the patient, and the two shoulder straps respectively pass through the two shoulder buckles and are fixed by Velcro.

The medical staff adjust the inner diameter of the head bladder 15 through the first inflation port 31 and adjust the height of the neck bladder 17 through the third inflation port 33, which is applicable to patients of different body types.
[0025] Wherein, adjustable-width shoulder bags 16 are respectively provided inside the two shoulder walls 14. The shoulder bags 16 are provided with second inflation ports 32. When the second inflation ports 32 are inflated, the shoulder bags 16 expand, increasing the width of the shoulder bags 16 and pressing against the patient's shoulders. Medical staff adjust the width of the shoulder bags 16 through the second inflation ports 32, so that the shoulder bags 16 are closely attached to the patient's shoulders, playing a fixing role for the patient's shoulders and being applicable to patients of different body types.
[0026] Reference Figure 1 , an elastic axillary pad 23 is provided on the skin-contact surface of the chest strap 22, and the axillary pad 23 is placed under the patient's armpits. The elasticity of the axillary pad 23 can relieve the pressure of the chest strap 22 and prevent the skin under the patient's armpits from being strangled, making the patient feel comfortable when wearing.
[0027] Wherein, the neck bag 17 is formed by connecting a plurality of bag strips arranged along the length direction of the cervical vertebra, and the different bag strips are not connected to each other. The number of the third inflation ports 33 is the same as and corresponds to the number of the bag strips one by one, that is, a plurality of the third inflation ports 33 are respectively connected to a plurality of the bag strips. When the third inflation ports 33 are inflated, the corresponding bag strips increase in height. Medical staff can adjust the inflation position and degree of the airbag according to the needs of the patient's cervical vertebra, that is, different bag strips are adjusted to different heights, more fitting the cervical curvature of the patient, effectively supporting the patient's cervical vertebra and improving the comfort.
[0028] The utility model further includes a headband 24. Head buckles 4 are respectively provided on both sides of the outer wall of the housing 1. The headband 24 winds around the patient's forehead, and both ends of the headband 24 respectively pass through the two head buckles 4 and are fixed by sticking with magic tapes. Medical staff respectively pass both ends of the headband 24 through the two head buckles 4, tighten them and fix them by sticking with magic tapes, so that the headband 24 presses on the patient's forehead, that is, the patient's head is clamped between the headband 24 and the head shell 11, enhancing the fixation of the patient's head and preventing the patient's head from slipping out of the head groove 13.
[0029] Wherein, an elastic head pad 25 is provided on the skin-contact surface of the headband 24, and the head pad 25 is placed on the patient's forehead. The elasticity of the head pad 25 can relieve the pressure of the headband 24 and prevent the skin of the patient's forehead from being pressed, making the patient feel comfortable when wearing.
[0030] Wherein, an elastic plate pad 20 is provided on the skin-contact surface of the pressing plate 2. The elasticity of the plate pad 20 can relieve the pressure of the pressing plate 2 and prevent the skin in front of the patient from being pressed, making the patient feel comfortable when wearing.
[0031] Reference Figure 3, a collector 3 is connected to the outer wall of the housing 1. The first inflation port 31, the second inflation port 32 and the third inflation port 33 are all arranged on the same side outside the collector 3, and the first inflation port 31, the second inflation port 32 and the third inflation port 33 are not communicated with each other.
