Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of radiation protection products, specifically to a portable bedside radiation protection device for critically ill patients. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing demand for bedside X-ray examinations for critically ill patients, the frequency of these examinations is also increasing. Furthermore, there is a severe lack of protective equipment for bedside X-ray examinations in intensive care units, inevitably leading to radiation damage to critically ill patients, especially children. Statistics show that children from newborns to 10 years old are more susceptible to radiation exposure, particularly in radiation-sensitive tissues and organs such as the eyes (lens), neck (thyroid gland), chest (thymus and breasts), and pelvis (gonads, such as the testes in men and the ovaries in women), posing a significant radiation safety hazard to these children.
[0003] Currently, only a small number of clinical departments use ordinary lead aprons or lead blankets to protect patients, and this is limited to ordinary patients whose condition is stable and who can stand or sit. However, it cannot be done for critically ill patients who can only lie flat. Furthermore, patients may experience fear and discomfort due to the pressure of the lead blankets, which can affect the efficiency of examinations.
[0004] Furthermore, critically ill patients under the pressure of protective devices are at risk of pressure injuries. Repeated use and inconvenient disinfection can easily lead to cross-infection and other hospital-acquired infection risks. Therefore, there is a need for a novel, portable, bedside radiation protection device for critically ill patients to address these issues and improve its effectiveness. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the above-mentioned background technology and provide a portable bedside radiation protection device for critically ill patients. The device uses a support frame to support the lead cloth protective cover, which facilitates radiological examinations for critically ill patients in a supine position and will not put pressure on the critically ill patients. The device does not come into contact with the human body and can be wiped, irradiated and disinfected after use to avoid the risk of cross-infection.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a portable bedside radiography radiation protection device for critically ill patients, comprising a support frame and a lead cloth protective cover, wherein the lead cloth protective cover is fitted onto the support frame and detachably connected thereto.
[0007] The supporting frame includes a front plate, a rear plate, a first side plate, a second side plate, and a top plate. Both the front plate and the rear plate have passageways for the patient's body to pass through.

Detailed Implementation
[0034] The following examples illustrate the implementation of this utility model in detail, but they do not constitute a limitation on this utility model and are merely illustrative. Furthermore, explaining the advantages of this utility model will make it clearer and easier to understand.
[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 The illustrated portable bedside radiation protection device for critically ill patients includes a supporting frame 1 and a lead cloth protective cover 2. The lead cloth protective cover 2 is detachably connected to the supporting frame 1. The supporting frame 1 is a rigid component made of acrylic sheet, which supports the lead cloth protective cover, facilitating radiological examinations for critically ill patients in a supine position without causing pressure on them. The device does not contact the human body and can be wiped and disinfected after use, avoiding the risk of cross-infection. The lead cloth protective cover is made of ultra-light lead cloth, making it lighter, safer, and more portable. Its rectangular shape enhances stability and improves efficiency. The exterior of the protective device can be made of microfiber fabric to form a waterproof layer, providing excellent waterproof performance. The lead cloth protective cover and supporting frame are detachably combined for easy maintenance and upkeep after use.
[0036] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the support frame 1 includes a front plate 101, a rear plate 102, a first side plate 103, a second side plate 104, and a top plate 105. Adjacent plates on the support frame 1 are connected by an arc transition. Both the front plate 101 and the rear plate 102 have passageways 106 for the patient to pass through. The passageways 106 on the front plate 101 and the rear plate 102 are arched.
[0037] like Figures 5-7 As shown, the lead cloth protective cover 2 includes a front cloth surface 201, a rear cloth surface 202, a first side cloth surface 203, a second side cloth surface 204, and a top cloth surface 205. Both the front cloth surface 201 and the rear cloth surface 202 have openings 206. The shape of the openings 206 on the front cloth surface 201 and the rear cloth surface 202 matches the shape of the passage opening 106. A hanging protective lead curtain 207 is provided at the opening 206.
[0038] A first magnetic strip 3 is provided on the first side plate 103 and / or the second side plate 104 of the supporting frame 1, and a second magnetic strip 4 is provided on the first side fabric surface 203 and / or the second side fabric surface 204 of the lead cloth protective cover 2. The supporting frame 1 and the lead cloth protective cover 2 are magnetically connected by the first magnetic strip 3 and the second magnetic strip 4. This utility model's movable bedside radiographic radiation protection device for critically ill patients introduces a magnetically contacting lead cloth protective cover design, simplifying the installation and replacement process and improving ease of use. The supporting frame can be manufactured by the following method:
[0039] S1: Raw material preparation: Select acrylic sheets and clean them to remove surface stains and dust. The thickness of the acrylic sheets should be 5-8 mm.
[0040] S2: Design and mold making: Make corresponding molds according to product design. Mold design needs to take into account factors such as product size, shape, and bending angle.
[0041] S3: Heating and softening: Place the acrylic sheet in a heating furnace to soften it. The heating temperature is 90-105℃. In actual operation, when heating and bending the acrylic sheet, pay attention to controlling the heating temperature to avoid bubbling or breaking of the acrylic due to excessive temperature.
[0042] S4: Hot bending: The softened acrylic sheet is placed on a mold, and pressure is applied to heat-bend the acrylic sheet along the shape of the mold. The pressure applied is 0.2 to 0.35 MPa. Hot bending can be performed using an acrylic hot bending machine, which is equipped with a spring device and a clamping device. It can be operated through the circular rail on the machine body and the heating device in the middle to achieve the hot bending of acrylic, ensuring that all materials and processes meet environmental protection standards and reduce the impact on the environment.
[0043] S5: Cooling and Shaping: After hot bending, the product is cooled naturally or by accelerated cooling with equipment to maintain its bent shape.
[0044] S6: Post-processing and inspection: After hot bending, the product undergoes post-processing such as grinding, polishing, and cutting. It is deemed acceptable if it meets the design and quality standards after inspection.
[0045] This invention relates to a portable bedside radiography radiation protection device for critically ill patients, designed in various sizes to suit the weight, age, and body type of the patient. These devices are suitable for radiation protection of the head and neck, upper chest, and pelvis of infants, children, and adults. Different models can be placed simultaneously on different areas of the patient requiring protection, providing comprehensive protection. When a critically ill patient undergoes a bedside X-ray examination, this portable bedside radiography radiation protection device can be placed in non-examination areas, especially those requiring additional protection, to achieve radiation protection for those areas.
