AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing technologies lack effective protection for the inner and outer ankles of bedridden patients, and existing protective equipment is costly and difficult to reuse.

Method used

A protective sock for pressure injuries in bedridden patients has been designed, comprising a sock body, first and second protective pads, and a positioning module. By setting flexible grooves at the inner and outer ankles to match the shape of the ankle, and using fixing straps to fix the sock body, the protective pads are ensured not to move, thereby reducing local pressure.

Benefits of technology

It effectively reduces local pressure on the inner and outer ankles, prevents pressure injuries, improves the quality of care, reduces care costs, and can be reused.

Abstract

The utility model is suitable for the field of medical supplies, and discloses a pressure injury protection sock for a bedridden patient, which comprises a sock body, a first protection pad, a second protection pad and a position fixing module, the position fixing module comprises a first fixing belt annularly arranged on the sock body and close to the upper portion of the inner ankle and the upper portion of the outer ankle, a first protection pad and a second protection pad are arranged at the inner ankle and the outer ankle, the shape of a first groove is matched with the shape of a protrusion of the inner ankle, the first groove can make contact with the inner ankle in the maximum area, local pressure on the inner ankle is reduced, and the sock body is protected from being damaged. The shape of the second groove is matched with the shape of the protrusion of the external ankle, local stress on the external ankle is reduced, after the positions of the first protection pad and the second protection pad are adjusted, the sock body and the foot are fixed through a first fixing belt in the position fixing module, and therefore it is guaranteed that the first protection pad and the second protection pad do not move any more; meanwhile, the first fixing band is in a band shape, so that the pressed area of the foot is effectively increased, pressure is reduced, pressure injury is avoided, and nursing quality is improved.
