[0002] Postpartum mothers often experience discomfort such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the lower extremities and abdominal distension, especially those who underwent a cesarean section. Therefore, doctors recommend that mothers turn over and lie on their side more often. This not only improves sleep quality but also helps speed up bowel movements, prevents various discomforts, and promotes pelvic recovery. Therefore, mothers should avoid staying in the same sleeping position for extended periods and change their sleeping position as appropriate. However, when this is necessary, they often need to seek medical assistance to turn over.
[0003] Currently, turning a mother over often relies on the assistance of medical staff. During this procedure, the medical staff typically stand at the mother's side and have her lie on her back, with her hands resting naturally on her abdomen and her legs bent. The medical staff then uses both hands to support the mother's shoulders and sacrum, while gently applying force to turn her over to a comfortable angle, using pillows to support her back to ensure safety and comfort.
[0004] However, existing methods for turning the mother over require high levels of cooperation from medical staff, and it is difficult to accurately find the right point of support. This not only may damage the mother's wounds but also increases the workload of medical staff. To effectively address these challenges, there is an urgent need to develop a postpartum turning-assistance mechanism to improve the safety and convenience of turning, reduce the burden on medical staff, and improve the comfort and recovery efficiency of the mother.
