[0002] In clinical practice, nurses are required to closely monitor and record time (e.g., the timing of changes in patient condition, the duration of treatment, and even the preparation for pulse measurement). Measuring tools are essential for clinical nursing. In clinical care, especially after orthopedic surgery, patients often require indwelling drainage tubes to remove exudates such as secretions, blood, and pus. These tubes are crucial to patient recovery, making accurate and rapid assessment of tube placement and prevention of unplanned removal crucial clinical tasks. Traditional measurement methods often use a graduated soft or hard ruler to measure the entire exposed length of the drainage tube, then measure the time and record it. This method is time-consuming and labor-intensive, necessitating the development of a versatile measuring tool. Utility Model Content

[0021] See also Figure 1-4 , the utility model provides a technical solution:

[0022] A multifunctional measuring tool includes a measuring tape 1, wherein a connecting piece 2 is fixedly connected to the lower portion of the outer surface of the measuring tape 1, a hanging rope 3 is wrapped around the inner portion of the connecting piece 2, a connecting piece 4 is wrapped around the end of the hanging rope 3 away from the connecting piece 2, a hanging watch 5 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the connecting piece 4, and both the connecting piece 2 and the connecting piece 4 are of "U"-shaped structure.

[0023] In this embodiment, two No. 1 connecting plates 13 are fixedly connected to the upper rear end of the tape measure 1, and the rear ends of the two No. 1 connecting plates 13 are both cambered structures. The ends of the two No. 1 connecting plates 13 close to each other are commonly interspersed and movably connected with a round rod 12, and the left and right outer surfaces of the round rod 12 are fixedly connected to a No. 2 connecting plate 111, and the rear ends of the two No. 2 connecting plates 111 are commonly fixedly connected to a clamping plate 11; a torsion spring 121 is sleeved on the middle part of the outer surface of the round rod 12; the torsion spring 121 is located between the clamping plate 11 and the tape measure 1; the front ends of the two No. 2 connecting plates 111 are both cambered structures, and the right ends of the two No. 1 connecting plates 13 are each provided with a through hole 131, and the round rod 12 passes through the two through holes 131; the two No. 2 connecting plates 111 do not contact the rear end of the tape measure 1, and the four corners of the outer surface of the clamping plate 11 are all cambered structures.

[0024] Through the above scheme: after hanging the tape measure 1 on the nurse's chest pocket through the clamping plate 11, the entire tool is worn on the nurse's uniform.
