Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of rotating oral medication reminder signs, specifically a rotating reminder sign to remind elderly patients to instruct on their oral medications. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing trend of population aging, health problems among the elderly are becoming increasingly prominent. Chronic diseases are prevalent among the elderly, making medication a necessity for maintaining their health. However, the physiological changes in the elderly, the coexistence of multiple diseases, and the complexity of medications all place higher demands on drug use. Therefore, advocating for medication adherence to doctor's orders and reasonable, timely medication use among the elderly is an important issue we face.
[0003] Following medical advice and using medication rationally can effectively prevent drug abuse and its associated risks. Drug abuse has become a serious problem among the elderly, who face many health issues and whose medication use has become widespread and frequent.
[0004] However, many elderly people often abuse drugs, overuse them, use them for extended periods, or miss doses due to a lack of scientific and professional guidance. Furthermore, the physiological and psychological conditions of the elderly vary from person to person, and their adherence to medication also differs. This not only increases the risk of adverse drug reactions and side effects but may also lead to the drugs becoming ineffective.
[0005] Therefore, in order to better adjust the dosage and frequency of medication according to the individual differences of the elderly and improve the efficacy of the medication to achieve the goal of treating the disease, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a rotating indicator board with a graphic of a rotating disc set at the head of the bed. Through the design of this rotating structure, the medication status can be monitored in a timely manner, avoiding the risk of missed or double doses. At the same time, it can provide doctors with relevant information about the patient's medication status. Through the indication of the white transparent area, patients and caregivers can intuitively confirm whether it is time to take the medication and the medication status, effectively improving the standardization and safety of patient medication and reducing the risks caused by improper medication. Utility Model Content

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0021] A preferred embodiment of the rotary sign for reminding elderly patients to instruct on oral medication provided by this utility model is, for example... Figure 1-4The following is an illustration: A rotating reminder sign for elderly patients to take oral medication, comprising a mounting clip 21 and a rotating disk 22 for taking oral medication mounted on the mounting clip 21. The mounting clip 21 is curved. The rotating disk 22 has multiple positioning holes, and a rotating structure 3 is provided around each positioning hole. The rotating structure 3 includes a fan-shaped sticker 31 located directly above the positioning hole on the surface of the rotating disk 22, on which the words "medication taken" are written 32. A cross bolt 38 is installed inside the positioning hole. The screwing part of the cross bolt 38 is movably provided with a hidden arc handle 39, which can be easily removed, gripped, and rotated by the operator for easy disassembly. A washer 37 and a rotating paddle 33 are fitted on the outer wall of the cross bolt 38, and are threadedly connected to a nut 40 on the back of the rotating disk 22 through the positioning hole. The rotating paddle 33... The activity is located between the pad 37 and the fan-shaped sticker 31; the rotating paddle 33 is made of white transparent material, and the upper area of the back of the rotating paddle 33 is provided with a fan-shaped shield 35, and the lower area of the back of the rotating paddle 33 is a white transparent area 34, and the white transparent area 34 is marked with different words "morning" / "noon" / "evening" / "QN" 36. The words "morning" / "noon" / "evening" / "QN" 36 correspond to the words "medication taken" 32 on the fan-shaped sticker 31 respectively; through the design of this rotating structure 3, the medication status can be monitored in a timely manner to avoid the risk of missing or overdosing medication. At the same time, it can provide doctors with relevant information on the patient's medication status. Through the indication of the white transparent area 34, patients and caregivers can intuitively confirm whether it is the medication time and medication status, effectively improving the standardization and safety of patient medication and reducing the risks caused by improper medication.
[0022] When in use, after the nurse administers the prescribed oral medication according to the doctor's orders, the nurse can rotate the rotating lever 33 on the oral medication rotating disc 22 after the patient has finished taking the medication. When the fan-shaped blocking plate 35 on the rotating lever 33 covers the words "Morning", "Noon", "Evening", and "QN" 36 (i.e., the white transparent area 34 can display the words "Medication Taken" 32), it indicates that the patient has finished taking the current medication. If the patient has not taken the medication for some reason, there is no need to rotate the rotating lever 33. This can remind the next shift of nurses and caregivers that the patient has not finished taking the current medication.
[0023] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
