Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a perioral care mask for critically ill patients, belonging to the technical field of perioral care for critically ill patients. Background Art
[0002] Critically ill patients in hospital wards often need wet compresses, medicated compresses, or cold compresses around their mouths to keep the area around their mouths and lips moist and reduce bleeding. In the existing technology, there is no dedicated device for perioral care of critically ill patients. Usually, paper or cloth materials are used for wiping or temporary application, which are easy to fall off, have poor effects, and are not conducive to nursing operations.
[0003] In the past, there were various masks available for facial care, which were fixed by wetting the mask with water or medicine and applying it to the face. The disadvantage of these masks is that they are often disposable and difficult to fix firmly on the face, making them unsuitable for critically ill patients in hospitals. In addition, there are some special masks that can achieve better fixation, but due to the cumbersome devices, they are difficult to put into clinical use.
[0004] Therefore, providing a perioral care mask for critically ill patients is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently in this field. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a perioral care mask for critically ill patients, which protects the perioral skin and lips of critically ill patients and can be used for wet compresses, medicated compresses, cold compresses and compression to keep the perioral skin and lips moist and reduce bleeding. The mask has a simple structure and is reusable.
[0006] The utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0007] A perioral care mask for critically ill patients comprises a mask body A, a detachable assembly I, and a detachable assembly II; the mask body A is made of cloth and can cover the area around the oral cavity; the mask body A has an opening E in the middle facing the mouth, and a perioral assembly with Velcro is provided around the opening E, and both sides of the mask body A have ear holes C for the ears to pass through; the detachable assembly I is a water-filled sac that can be adsorbed and fixed to the perioral assembly via Velcro, and is used to be pressed against the lips for applying cold compresses, compression to stop bleeding, etc.; the detachable assembly II is made of sponge material, can absorb water alone or spray medicine while absorbing water, and can be adsorbed and fixed to the perioral assembly via Velcro after absorbing water, and is used to be pressed against the lips for moistening the lips or applying medicine.
[0008] Preferably, the detachable assembly I includes a water bag upper lip piece H and a water bag lower lip piece I, each of which has a water inlet J and can be adsorbed together by Velcro to form a ring that is shaped like the lips; the detachable assembly II includes a sponge upper lip piece L and a sponge lower lip piece K, both of which can be adsorbed together by Velcro to form a ring that is shaped like the lips.
[0009] Furthermore, the water bag upper lip piece H and the sponge lower lip piece K are combined and used by Velcro adsorption.
[0010] Furthermore, the water bag lower lip piece I and the sponge upper lip piece L are combined and used by Velcro adsorption.
[0011] Preferably, the perioral assembly comprises an upper lip component F and a lower lip component D which are independent of each other.
[0012] Preferably, the upper portion of the mask body A has a philtrum protection sponge G corresponding to the philtrum below the nose.
[0013] Preferably, the rear portion of the ear hole C has an elastic band B for connecting to the head.
[0014] Preferably, the water-fillable bladder is made of rubber.
[0015] Preferably, the mask body A is elliptical in shape.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0023] See also Figure 1-2 A perioral care mask for critically ill patients comprises a mask body A, a detachable assembly I, and a detachable assembly II; the mask body A is made of cloth and can cover the area around the mouth; the middle of the mask body A has an opening E facing the mouth, and a perioral assembly with Velcro is provided around the opening E, and both sides of the mask body A have ear holes C for the ears to pass through; the detachable assembly I is a water-filled capsule that can be fixed to the perioral assembly by Velcro, and is used to be pressed against the lips for applying cold compresses and stopping bleeding; the detachable assembly II is made of sponge, which can absorb water and then be fixed to the perioral assembly by Velcro, and is used to be pressed against the lips for moistening the lips or applying medicine.
[0024] See also Figure 1 The mask body A has a protective sponge G above the philtrum. E is the opening, B is an elastic band secured behind the ear, and C is the ear hole (where the ear comes out). The perioral assemblies F and D have two detachable parts. The water bladder upper lip H, water bladder lower lip I, and water inlet J form detachable assembly I, while the sponge upper lip L and sponge lower lip K form detachable assembly II. Detachable assemblies I and II are attached with Velcro and can be attached to the Velcro-attached upper lip F and lower lip D of the perioral assembly.
[0025] In this embodiment, the detachable assembly I includes a water bag upper lip piece H and a water bag lower lip piece I, each of which has a water inlet J and can be adsorbed together by Velcro to form a ring that conforms to the shape of the lips; the detachable assembly II includes a sponge upper lip piece L and a sponge lower lip piece K, both of which can be adsorbed together by Velcro to form a ring that conforms to the shape of the lips.
[0026] In this embodiment, the water bag upper lip piece H and the sponge lower lip piece K are combined and used by Velcro adsorption.
[0027] In another embodiment, the water bag lower lip piece I and the sponge upper lip piece L are combined and used by Velcro adsorption.
[0028] In this embodiment, the perioral assembly includes an upper lip member F and a lower lip member D which are independent of each other.
[0029] In this embodiment, the water-fillable bladder is made of rubber.
[0030] In this embodiment, the mask body A is oval in shape.
[0031] The utility model is provided with perioral assembly F (upper lip piece) and D (lower lip piece) with Velcro on the mask body A. A philtrum protection sponge G is provided above the mask body A to reduce the damage of pressure to skin tissue. E is a hollow opening, and the oral cavity of a critically ill patient is aligned with E for ventilation.
[0032] According to the needs of perioral care for critically ill patients, different upper and lower lip assemblies are used in combination. When medicine or water compress is needed, water or medicine can be applied to assembly II. When ice compress, compression, etc. are needed, water can be injected into assembly I, thereby meeting the needs of perioral care for critically ill patients.
[0033] When encountering a critically ill patient requiring perioral care, based on the need for perioral care, using medication as an example, select detachable assembly II and evenly apply the appropriate medication to it. Use the Velcro on the back of the assembly to adhere to the corresponding assemblies F and D on mask A. Align the patient's lips with point E and apply the medication to their lips. Secure the mask to the critically ill patient using elastic band B. Finally, adjust the overall position of the mask to achieve a secure, non-compressive fit, thus achieving the desired perioral care.
[0034] The above are preferred embodiments of the present invention. Ordinary technicians in this field can also make their own changes or improvements on this basis. Without departing from the overall concept of the present invention, these changes or improvements should fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
