Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical nursing equipment, in particular to a novel lower limb lifting pad. Background Art

[0002] Postoperative rehabilitation training is crucial for a successful hip replacement. Swelling of the affected limb is common, and elevating the affected limb can improve blood circulation and venous return, thereby alleviating postoperative swelling. Currently, tools such as pillows and trapezoidal cushions are commonly used to elevate the affected limb, but these tools are limited in function and fail to meet clinical needs. They can also sometimes lead to adverse effects, such as pressure ulcers and foot drop.

[0003] In recent years, the development of lower limb lifting devices has been continuously improved, focusing on the elevation of the affected limb and maintaining the abduction of the thigh and calf, but ignoring that hip adduction and external rotation are also the main causes of joint dislocation after hip replacement surgery. In view of this, it is very necessary to provide a new type of lower limb lifting pad. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the fact that the existing equipment for raising the affected limb is simple, has a single function, is difficult to meet clinical needs, and ignores the technical problems of hip adduction and external rotation during the raising process, the utility model provides a new lower limb raising pad.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A new lower limb lifting pad includes a support pad, a support block, a placement plate and a traction rope. The cross-section of the support pad is a right-angled trapezoid. The support block is fixedly arranged at the top of the right-angled trapezoid. The placement plate is arranged vertically and the bottom surface of the rear end is connected to the support block. The left and right sides of the placement plate are connected with straps. The front ends of the left and right sides of the placement plate are provided with traction holes. The left and right sides of the support pad are provided with traction hooks. One end of the traction rope is tied to the traction hole, and the other end of the traction rope is sleeved on the traction hook.

[0007] Compared with the existing technology, the new lower limb lifting pad provided by the present invention is a pad that fixes a support block on the top of a support pad with a right-angled trapezoidal cross-section, and connects a vertically arranged placement board to the support block. When the patient's legs are placed on the support pad, the feet can be placed on the placement board at the same time and wrapped and tied with straps connected to the placement board, effectively achieving the lifting and fixation of the affected limb, promoting blood circulation and muscle function training, and effectively eliminating swelling and alleviating pain. At the same time, by connecting traction ropes on the left and right sides of the placement board and the support pad, the placement board can always keep the affected limb in a neutral position with the toes pointing upward after the affected limb is lifted and fixed, avoiding adduction and external rotation of the hip joint during the lifting of the affected limb. The present application has a simple structure and can meet clinical needs.

[0008] Furthermore, the cross-section of the support block is L-shaped, and a protrusion extends from the middle of the vertical side of the L-shaped support block, and a mounting hole is provided on the protrusion. A fixing hole is provided on the rear end bottom surface of the placement plate, and screws are inserted into the mounting hole of the protrusion and the fixing hole of the placement plate. A locking nut is sleeved on the outer end of the screw, and the horizontal side of the L-shaped support block is fixedly connected to the top of the right-angled trapezoid.

[0009] Furthermore, ventilation holes are provided through the upper and lower surfaces of the placement plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the placement board is made of hard foam or sponge.

[0011] Furthermore, the strap is a Velcro strap. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0018] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a new lower limb lifting pad, including a support pad 1, a support block 2, a placement plate 3 and a traction rope 4. The cross-section of the support pad 1 is a right-angled trapezoid, the support block 2 is fixedly arranged at the top of the right-angled trapezoid, the placement plate 3 is arranged vertically and the rear end bottom surface is connected to the support block 2, the left and right sides of the placement plate 3 are connected with straps 5, the straps 5 are used to tie and fix the affected limb to the placement plate 3, the front ends of the left and right sides of the placement plate 3 are provided with traction holes, the left and right sides of the support pad 1 are provided with traction hooks 6, one end of the traction rope 4 is tied to the traction hole, and the other end of the traction rope 4 is sleeved on the traction hook 6.

[0019] Compared with the existing technology, the new lower limb lifting pad provided by the present invention is a pad that fixes a support block on the top of a support pad with a right-angled trapezoidal cross-section, and connects a vertically arranged placement board to the support block. When the patient's legs are placed on the support pad, the feet can be placed on the placement board at the same time and wrapped and tied with straps connected to the placement board, effectively achieving the lifting and fixation of the affected limb, promoting blood circulation and muscle function training, and effectively eliminating swelling and alleviating pain. At the same time, by connecting traction ropes on the left and right sides of the placement board and the support pad, the placement board can always keep the affected limb in a neutral position with the toes pointing upward after the affected limb is lifted and fixed, avoiding adduction and external rotation of the hip joint during the lifting of the affected limb. The present application has a simple structure and can meet clinical needs.

[0020] As a specific example, please refer to Figure 2 As shown, the cross section of the support block 2 is L-shaped, and a protrusion 22 extends from the middle of the vertical side 21 of the L-shaped support block.

A screw 7 is inserted into the mounting hole of the protrusion 22 and the fixing hole of the placement plate 3, that is, the screw 7 is threadedly connected to the mounting hole of the protrusion 22 and the fixing hole of the placement plate 3. The outer end of the screw 7 is sleeved with a locking nut 8. The horizontal side 23 of the L-shaped support block is fixedly connected to the top of the right-angled trapezoid. The fixed connection between the horizontal side and the support pad 1 can also be achieved by connecting the vertical side 21 to the placement plate 3. The connection method of the support block 2 and the placement plate 3 in this embodiment is simple, reliable, convenient and fast, and is very suitable for use in clinical treatment.

[0021] As a specific example, please refer to Figure 2 As shown, the upper and lower surfaces of the placement board 3 are provided with ventilation holes 31. When the patient's feet are placed and fixed on the placement board 3 for a long time, the soles of the feet can be ventilated through the ventilation holes 31, which effectively improves the patient's comfort.

[0022] As a specific embodiment, the placement board 3 is made of existing hard foam or hard sponge, and the placement board 3 made in this way has the characteristics of being insect-proof and antibacterial, having a high rebound rate, and being wear-resistant and durable.

[0023] As a specific embodiment, the strap 5 is a Velcro strap, which includes a female Velcro strap and a male Velcro strap. Through the adhesion and cooperation of the female Velcro strap and the male Velcro strap, the foot can be quickly tied and fixed to the placement board 3.
