Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical devices, specifically relating to a body position maintenance device. Background Technology

[0002] In operating room nursing, proper patient positioning is crucial for ensuring successful surgery and postoperative recovery. For example, the lateral decubitus position is commonly used in surgery, providing ample exposure of the surgical field and facilitating surgical procedures. However, patients under anesthesia often struggle to adjust and maintain their position independently. Surgical positioning pads are frequently used to help stabilize the patient's body and prevent complications caused by prolonged pressure. However, traditional surgical positioning pads typically lack height and position adjustment, failing to meet the needs of different patients and procedures.

[0003] Utility model patent CN222075493U discloses an inflatable surgical positioning pad, including a base plate. An inflatable structure for supplying air is provided on the inner side of the base plate. Two air cushion strips for support are connected to the top of the inflatable structure. Two movable cavities for providing movement space are opened at the bottom of the base plate. A bidirectional screw for driving is passed through the inner side of each movable cavity. Two driving blocks are screwed to the outside of the bidirectional screw. A support rod is hinged to the top of each driving block. The bidirectional screw drives the two driving blocks to move. The two driving blocks can cause the air cushion strips at the top of the support frame to bend through the two support rods, thus changing the local support height of the air cushion strips by the support frame.
