Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical auxiliary equipment, in particular to a post-operative rehabilitation device for breast cancer. Background Art

[0002] After breast cancer surgery, patients usually have two drainage tubes, one in the chest wall and one in the armpit, with a negative pressure drainage bulb connected to the end of the drainage tube. Before the drainage tube is removed and the wound recovers after surgery, if the patient clamps his arm, it will not only squeeze the drainage tube, resulting in obstruction of the flow of fluid in the drainage tube, but also cause tissue adhesion and scar contracture at the axillary wound, which will lead to difficulty in raising or abducting the arm after surgery and arm dysfunction. If the patient abducts the arm excessively, the skin flap at the chest wall wound will not fit easily, and subcutaneous fluid will easily accumulate, affecting wound healing. If the patient's arm is drooping for a long time, blood return to the upper limb will be obstructed, and lymphedema complications are likely to occur.

[0003] Typically, breast cancer surgery patients place a gauze-wrapped pillow on their surgical side, abducting their arm and placing it on the pillow at a certain angle. However, when the patient's arm rests on the pillow, it can easily compress the pillow, causing it to squeeze the drainage tube. Furthermore, any movement of the arm on the pillow can easily cause the arm to become pinched, abducted, or even slide down and droop. Therefore, currently used pillows are not conducive to wound healing and the prevention of complications. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a breast cancer postoperative rehabilitation device to solve the above problems existing in the prior art.

[0007] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: when the patient is recovering after surgery, the forearm can be stably placed on the support plate, and the diaphragm can prevent the patient from clamping the upper arm, and the tube groove of the diaphragm facing the chest wall of the human body can protect the drainage tube to prevent the drainage tube from being squeezed.

[0008] On the basis of the above technical solution, the present invention can also be improved as follows.

[0009] Furthermore, a plurality of ridges are vertically arranged at equal intervals on the side of the spacer facing the chest wall of the human body, and the tube groove for placing the drainage tube is formed between adjacent ridges.

[0010] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further solution is that the septum and the ridges are an integrally formed structure made of sponge material, which ensures that the septum is comfortable when placed on the chest wall of the human body and that space for the drainage tube is ensured.

[0011] Furthermore, the binding device includes a waist belt with fixing rings arranged on the supporting plate and the side wall of the spacer, and a shoulder strap fixed on the waist belt.

[0012] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the device is stably set on the patient's waist through the waist belt, while the shoulder strap is further improved to ensure the stability of the device setting, and the two share the force, thereby improving the patient's wearing comfort; at the same time, the fixation of the waist belt avoids excessive abduction of the arms after the device is moved at will.

[0013] Furthermore, the spacer and the support plate are provided with restraint belts.

[0014] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further solution is that the patient's upper arm can be fixed on the septum by the restraint of the restraint belt, thereby preventing the upper arm from moving arbitrarily and causing the upper arm to be clamped or excessively abducted, thereby affecting the healing of the wound.

[0015] Furthermore, the support plate includes a support plate and a sponge pad, the support plate is fixedly arranged on the spacer, and the sponge pad is laid on the outer side of the support plate.

[0016] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further solution is that the support plate and the sponge pad effectively take into account both the support of the support plate to the forearm and the comfort of the forearm placement.

[0017] Furthermore, a placement bag is fixedly installed on the bottom of the spacer.

[0018] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further solution is that the placement bag is used to place the negative pressure drainage ball connected to the end of the drainage tube, avoiding the drainage ball being placed too far and causing accidental detachment of the tube after being pulled.
