Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application uses the field of medical device technology and relates to an inflatable mattress for assisting in turning over in medical settings. Background Technology

[0002] Pressure ulcers are caused by prolonged pressure or shearing forces that lead to ischemia and hypoxia in the skin and soft tissues, resulting in local tissue damage or necrosis. Bedridden patients, elderly people with limited mobility, and patients with long-term paralysis are particularly prone to developing pressure ulcers because they cannot change position independently.

[0003] In clinical practice, for some patients who are bedridden, paralyzed, or unable to move independently for a long time, prolonged bed rest not only causes great pain to the patients, but also increases the difficulty of care. In order to prevent pressure sores, bedridden patients need to be turned over at regular intervals. However, currently, it usually takes two or three medical staff to work together to turn the patient over. At the same time, these patients often lack self-awareness and cannot cooperate with the care of medical staff, causing a lot of inconvenience.

[0004] Therefore, there is a clinical need for a mattress that can assist medical staff in turning over. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to address the aforementioned problem of the lack of mattresses that can assist medical staff in turning over, the purpose of this application is to provide an inflatable mattress for assisting medical turning over.

[0006] The present invention provides an air mattress for assisting in turning over in medical settings. The main body of the air mattress consists of two connected, integrally formed, fan-shaped folding air bladders. The two air bladders are not connected to each other and are respectively the first air bladder and the second air bladder. Each air bladder is provided with an inflation valve and a deflation valve.

[0007] Furthermore, the first inflatable airbag is provided with a first inflation valve and a first deflation valve, and the second inflatable airbag is provided with a second inflation valve and a second deflation valve; the inflation valve is a one-way valve / check valve.

[0008] Furthermore, the inflation valve is connected to an external inflation device, which can be a small electric handheld inflation device, a manual air pump, an accordion-style press inflation device, or a hand-squeezed inflation device.

[0009] Furthermore, the inflatable airbag is made of rubber or silicone; the surface of the inflatable airbag is covered with a layer of scratch-resistant fabric.

[0010] Furthermore, the upper surface of the inflatable airbag is made of a water-absorbing and skin-friendly material to increase patient comfort.

[0011] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the air mattress that contacts the bed frame is provided with several rubber anti-slip points to prevent slippage during use.

[0012] Furthermore, the fan-shaped folding inflatable airbag fits snugly against the bed board when deflated; when inflated, the portion of the airbag closest to the user's body remains stationary, creating a sloping surface. This raised airbag provides support for the critically ill patient's body, assisting medical staff in turning the patient over.

[0013] Furthermore, the air mattress has a width of 35-50 cm, which can accommodate different distances from the neck to the waist of different patients; and a length of 80-120 cm, which can accommodate the width of hospital medical beds.

[0014] Furthermore, the air mattress has 3 to 5 fixing straps on each of its left and right sides to secure it to the bed frame and prevent it from moving with the patient's weight during use.

[0015] Furthermore, a body strap is provided at the center of the air mattress, which is tied below the patient's chest to fix the patient's body.

[0016] Furthermore, the air mattress is provided with a first arm strap and a second arm strap on both sides to fix the patient's left and right arms when turning over.

[0017] Furthermore, each end of the fixing strap, torso strap, first arm strap, and second arm strap is provided with a plug and a buckle, which are used together to facilitate the removal and removal of the strap; the length of the strap is adjusted by the plug and the buckle.

[0018] Furthermore, each of the body strap, first arm strap, and second arm strap is surrounded by a washer, the width of which is greater than the width of the buckle. The washer can move freely on the strap, and the washer is made of any one of sponge, cotton fabric, or polyester fiber. When not used to immobilize the patient, the washer rests on the main body of the strap to prevent slippage; when using the strap to immobilize the patient, after the buckle holes are fastened together, the washer is moved to the buckle to separate the buckle from the patient's skin, reducing the possibility of pressure sores during assisted turning.

[0019] Furthermore, an inflation indicator is provided on the outer side of each inflatable airbag. The inflation indicator includes a scale bar and a buckle. The scale bar is connected to the side of the upper surface of the inflatable airbag and rises as the airbag is inflated. The buckle is connected to the side of the lower surface of the inflatable airbag and does not move during inflation. The scale bar passes through the buckle, and the angle of the inflated airbag can be determined by the position indicated by the buckle. In addition, after deflation, tightening the scale bar can fix the inflatable airbag in place.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are at least as follows:

[0021] (1) The present invention provides an air mattress for assisting in turning over in medical practice. It is used to fix the body part when medical staff help critically ill patients turn over in clinical practice. This makes the work of medical staff easier and less strenuous, reduces the occurrence of pressure sores, thereby reducing medical costs and improving the patient's recovery process.

[0022] (2) The present invention provides an air mattress for assisting patients to turn over in medical settings. It uses a material with a high coefficient of friction and straps in combination to effectively prevent patients from sliding during the nursing process.

[0023] (3) The present invention is equipped with an angle indicator bar, which can help medical staff judge the angle during the inflation of the mattress and make timely adjustments so that the patient is in a more comfortable position. Attached Figure Description

[0037] Example 1: An inflatable mattress for assisting with turning over in medical settings

[0038] based on Figures 1-4 This application provides an air mattress for assisting in turning over in medical settings, comprising the following structure:

[0039] The main body of the mattress consists of two connected inflatable air chambers 1, designated as a first air chamber 1-1 and a second air chamber 1-2. Each air chamber is equipped with an inflation valve 2 and a deflation valve 3. The inflation valve 2 on the first air chamber 1-1 is called the first inflation valve 2-1, and the deflation valve 3 on the first air chamber 1-1 is called the first deflation valve 3-1. Similarly, the inflation valve 2 on the second air chamber 1-2 is called the second inflation valve 2-2, and the deflation valve 3 on the second air chamber 1-2 is called the second deflation valve 3-2. The inflation valve 2 is a one-way valve / check valve, connected externally to an inflation device 8 via a flexible hose. This inflation device 8 is a hand-operated inflation device. Figure 4 The deflation valve 3 can be connected to air after it is opened to deflate the inflatable airbag.

[0040] A body strap 4 is provided in the middle section of the connecting line between the first airbag 1-1 and the second airbag 1-2. The body strap 4 includes a body strap body 4-1, a body strap buckle 4-2, and a body strap plug 4-3. The body strap buckle 4-2 and the body strap plug 4-3 work together to fix the patient's body to the mattress. An arm strap 5 is also provided on the first airbag 1-1 and the second airbag 1-2, respectively designated as the first arm strap 5-1 and the second arm strap 5-2. These two arm straps 5 are also connected by buckles and plugs and can work with the body strap 4 to fix the patient's arm. Four fixing straps 6 are provided on both sides of the inflatable airbags to fix the bed to the bed frame.

[0041] To reduce the possibility of pressure sores during assisted turning, this embodiment also provides a washer 9 around the body strap 4, the first arm strap 5-1, and the second arm strap 5-2. The width of the washer 9 is greater than the width of the buckle, and the washer 9 can move freely on the strap. The material of the washer 9 is any one of sponge, cotton fabric, or polyester fiber.
