Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of measurement technology, and in particular to a bedside measurement tool. Background Technology
[0002] Outpatient surgeries involve a heavy workload and rapid patient turnover. During these surgeries, staff often lack sufficient time for thorough physical examinations. Furthermore, some critically ill patients are unable to cooperate with doctors during these examinations. Previously, surgeons performing outpatient surgeries such as port-a-cath implantation typically obtained patient height information verbally, while neck length was roughly estimated visually. Existing height charts on the market were mostly telescopic, requiring additional measurement time and manpower, thus slowing down outpatient surgery turnover.
[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a bedside measurement tool to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a bedside measuring tool that allows surgeons to perform measurements while performing surgical procedures without moving the patient.

[0034] To enable surgeons to perform measurements during surgical procedures without moving the patient, this embodiment provides a bedside measurement tool, which is described below in conjunction with... Figures 1 to 5 The specific content of this embodiment will be described in detail.
[0035] like Figure 1 Combination Figure 2 As shown, the bedside measuring tool in this embodiment includes a mounting component 1, a first rotating component 2, a second rotating component 3, and a first counting band 4 with graduated lines. The mounting component 1 has a plate-like structure, extends along a first direction, and can be detachably connected to the side of the bed. The first rotating component 2 is rotatably disposed at the head end of the mounting component 1. The second rotating component 3 is rotatably disposed at the tail end of the mounting component 1, and the first rotating component 2 and the second rotating component 3 are spaced apart along the first direction. The first counting band 4 is wound around the first rotating component 2 and the second rotating component 3.
[0036] In summary, the bedside measuring tool provided by this invention has a first rotating component 2 and a second rotating component 3 spaced apart along a first direction on a mounting component 1, and a first counting belt 4 with scale lines is wound around the first rotating component 2 and the second rotating component 3. The surgeon can rotate the first rotating component 2 or the second rotating component 3, thereby rotating the first counting belt 4 to change the zero point position on the scale line, so that the zero point position on the scale line corresponds to the patient's head. The surgeon can quickly read physical examination data such as the patient's height and neck length. In cases where some patients can only lie in bed and have difficulty getting out of bed, the mounting component 1 can be installed on the side of the bed, allowing the surgeon to perform measurements while performing surgery without moving the patient.
[0037] For example, in some application scenarios, the bedside measuring tool also includes at least two hanging rings 11, which are spaced apart on the mounting member 1 along a first direction. The hanging rings 11 facilitate the connection of the hook to the side of the outpatient operating bed. Understandably, at least two cantilever beams can be provided on the side of the bed to facilitate the suspension of the hook. Furthermore, the hanging rings 11 allow the bedside measuring tool to be flipped relative to the side of the bed, making it convenient for medical staff to read the measurements.
[0038] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, in some application scenarios, the bedside measurement tool also includes at least two magnetic attachments 12, which are spaced apart along a first direction on the back of the mounting component 1. Understandably, the side of the hospital bed is made of metal steel, which facilitates the attachment of the magnetic attachments 12 to the side of the hospital bed.
[0039] For example, such as Figure 3 As shown, in some application scenarios, the bedside measuring tool also includes at least two fasteners 5. The mounting component 1 has at least two connecting holes 13 spaced apart along a first direction, through which the fasteners 5 can pass to connect to the side of the bed. Installing the mounting component 1 to the side of the bed using the fasteners 5 helps improve the stability of the connection. Optionally, the fasteners 5 include bolts or screws.
[0040] For example, such as Figure 4 As shown, in some application scenarios, at least two slots are spaced apart along the first direction on the side of the hospital bed, and at least two protrusions 14 are spaced apart along the first direction on the back of the mounting component 1. The protrusions 14 can engage with the corresponding slots. By using the interlocking method between the protrusions 14 and the slots, the installation and disassembly of the bedside measuring tool are simplified, making it convenient for users.
[0041] For example, such as Figure 5As shown, in some application scenarios, hooks 15 are provided at opposite ends of the mounting component 1. Two hooks 15 can be used to attach the bedside measuring tool to the uprights on the side of the bed. Since there is friction between the hooks 15 and the uprights during each installation, the hooks 15 can be made of plastic, resulting in a long service life and low manufacturing cost.
[0042] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the outer wall surface of the first rotating component 2 is provided with a first annular limiting groove 21, and the outer wall surface of the second rotating component 3 is provided with a second annular limiting groove 31. The first counting band 4 is located within the first annular limiting groove 21 and the second annular limiting groove 31. By adding the first annular limiting groove 21 and the second annular limiting groove 31, it is easier to limit the rotational movement of the first counting band 4 and prevent the first counting band 4 from falling off the first rotating component 2 and the second rotating component 3.
[0043] Furthermore, the outer walls of the first rotating component 2 and the second rotating component 3 are provided with anti-slip mechanisms. By adding anti-slip mechanisms, the friction between the hand and the first rotating component 2 and the second rotating component 3 is increased, preventing the hand from slipping during screwing. Exemplarily, the anti-slip mechanism includes anti-slip patterns, anti-slip protrusions, or anti-slip grooves, etc., without further limitation.
[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 Combination Figure 2 As shown, the bedside measuring tool also includes a third rotating component 6, a fourth rotating component 7, and a second counting belt 8 with graduated lines. The third rotating component 6 and the fourth rotating component 7 are rotatably mounted on the mounting component 1, and are located between the first rotating component 2 and the second rotating component 3. The second counting belt 8 is wound around the third rotating component 6 and the fourth rotating component 7. Medical staff can rotate the third rotating component 6 or the fourth rotating component 7, thereby rotating the second counting belt 8 to change the zero point position on the graduated line, so that the zero point position on the graduated line corresponds to the patient's head. The surgeon can quickly read the patient's height, neck length, and other physical examination data.
[0045] Optionally, the scale line range on the first counting band 4 is 2 meters, which can be used to measure physical examination data of adults; the scale line range on the second counting band 8 is less than 2 meters, which can be used to measure physical examination data of minors.
[0046] Optionally, the accuracy of the scale lines on the first counting band 4 is greater or less than the accuracy of the scale lines on the second counting band 8, which can meet the measurement accuracy requirements of different patient sites.
[0047] Note that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described herein, and various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions can be made without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, although the present invention has been described in detail through the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Many other equivalent embodiments may be included without departing from the concept of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is determined by the scope of the appended claims.
