Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cancer care technology, specifically to a nursing pad for breast care. Background Technology

[0002] Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in women, and surgery is one of its main treatment methods. However, in the early recovery period after breast cancer surgery, especially after axillary lymph node dissection, patients often face problems with impaired lymphatic drainage in the affected limb, leading to varying degrees of swelling, i.e., lymphedema. In addition, improper posture of the affected limb in the early postoperative period can also cause pain, joint stiffness, and poor blood circulation, seriously affecting the patient's recovery process and quality of life.

[0003] To alleviate these problems, various breast care products, such as nursing pads, are available on the market, designed to provide necessary support and reduce postoperative discomfort. However, existing nursing pads often have certain limitations in design. For example, they cannot adapt well to the natural shape of the affected limb, resulting in insufficient support and affecting the patient's rest and recovery. Furthermore, they cannot effectively maintain the elevation and bending angles of the affected limb, easily leading to edema. Therefore, we propose a breast care nursing pad to provide continuous fixation and stable support for the patient's affected limb in the early postoperative period. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a nursing pad for breast care. Through a scientifically designed angle and semi-circular support groove, it effectively supports the affected limb, reduces discomfort, and minimizes the risk of lymphedema. The sliding design of the limb support pad allows users to fine-tune its position as needed, improving comfort and ease of use. The overall design helps maintain correct limb posture, promotes blood circulation, accelerates the recovery process, significantly improves the patient's experience and quality of life, and solves the problems in existing technologies.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0025] 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.

[0026] To address the problems in existing technologies where the nursing pads do not adapt well to the natural shape of the affected limb, resulting in insufficient support and inability to maintain proper elevation and flexion angles, thus easily causing limb edema, the following technical solution is proposed. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1-5 ;

[0027] A nursing pad for breast care includes an R-shaped pad body 1, which includes a supporting slope 2, a backing plane 3, and R-shaped side surfaces 9 on both sides, providing a stable support base.

[0028] A limb support pad 4 is provided above the back plate plane 3, and a retaining strip 5 is provided on the bottom surface of the limb support pad 4. The retaining strip 5 is engaged with the through groove 6 opened on the back plate plane 3.

[0029] The main purpose of setting up the limb support pad 4 is to provide stable support for the limb in the early postoperative period. The patient uses the limb support pad 4 to continuously fix and stabilize the limb at an angle, thereby reducing the risk of wound discomfort and lymphedema.

[0030] Although the presence of the limb support pad 4 may restrict the rotation of the R-shaped pad body 1, causing the patient to be unable to turn over as flexibly as when using the R-shaped pad body 1 alone, the addition of the limb support pad 4 does not completely eliminate the possibility of turning over at multiple angles. In addition, in the early postoperative period, the frequency of turning over should be kept low and the turning angle should be relatively fixed, otherwise it will affect the recovery of the limb and the wound.

[0031] Meanwhile, the sliding connection between the affected limb support pad 4 and the R-shaped pad body 1 allows users to temporarily remove or adjust the position of the affected limb support pad 4 as needed to adapt to different turning angles. When turning is required, the affected limb support pad 4 can be temporarily removed or adjusted. The locking design of the clip 5 and the through groove 6 also allows for easy disassembly and reinstallation when needed.

[0032] As rehabilitation progresses, patients can gradually reduce their reliance on the limb support pad 4 and make more use of the multi-angle turning function of the R-shaped pad body 1.

[0033] The length of the retaining strip 5 is three-fifths of the extension length of the through groove 6 to maintain sufficient contact and support area. The height of the retaining strip 5 is equal to the depth of the through groove 6, and the width of the retaining strip 5 is equal to the width of the through groove 6, ensuring the stability of the limb support pad 4. At the same time, the limb support pad 4 can slide relative to the R-shaped pad body 1, so that its position can be adjusted according to the human body shape, posture and position to better meet the needs of use.

[0034] The upper arm support groove 7 and the forearm support groove 8 have a semi-circular cross-section, which can conform to the curve of the arm and provide better comfort.

[0035] The affected limb support pad 4 is provided with grooves for supporting the affected limb. The grooves include an upper arm support groove 7 and a forearm support groove 8. Both the upper arm support groove 7 and the forearm support groove 8 are set at an angle. The lower end of the upper arm support groove 7 faces the support slope 2. The axis of the upper arm support groove 7 forms a 90° angle with the axis of the forearm support groove 8, ensuring that the upper arm and forearm are in a natural and relaxed state.

[0036] The axis of the upper arm support groove 7 forms a 40° angle with the bottom plane of the R-shaped pad body 1 and a 20° angle with the R-shaped side 9. The axis of the forearm support groove 8 forms a 15° angle with the bottom plane of the R-shaped pad body 1. This design helps maintain the correct limb posture, reduces pressure points, and promotes blood circulation to the greatest extent.

[0037] Working principle: When using this nursing pad, the patient first adjusts the affected limb support pad 4 to a suitable position, so that the locking strip 5 engages with the through groove 6. Then, the patient can place the upper arm and forearm on the surgical side into the upper arm support groove 7 and forearm support groove 8, respectively. Because the angle between the two support grooves is designed according to human anatomy, it effectively supports the affected limb and keeps it elevated at an angle, minimizing edema and reducing discomfort caused by maintaining the same posture for a long time. Furthermore, the sliding design of the affected limb support pad 4 allows users to fine-tune its position according to their needs to achieve the best support effect.
