[0008] Figure 1 An exploded view of the structure of the acupuncture kit for psychiatry provided by this utility model. Detailed Implementation
[0009] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0010] like Figure 1As shown, the acupuncture kit for psychiatry provided by this utility model includes an acupuncture box, acupuncture needles, and a transparent cover 8; wherein, the acupuncture needle includes a colored sheet 1, a needle handle 2, and a needle body 3; the needle handle 2 is located at the upper end of the needle body 3; the colored sheet 1 is installed on the upper part of the needle handle 2; the upper part of the acupuncture box is a card placement area for placing a total number of acupuncture needles card 4, a patient information card 6, and a card 7 for the number of each acupuncture needle; the lower front end of the acupuncture box is open, and the interior is divided into four acupuncture needle storage areas 5 by a partition for storing acupuncture needles of different colors; the transparent cover 8 covers the front opening of the acupuncture box.
[0011] The colored sheet 1 is divided into four types: red, yellow, green, and blue, which are used to correspond to different acupuncture sites.
[0012] The method of using the acupuncture kit for psychiatry provided by this utility model is described below:
[0013] When using the acupuncture kit for psychiatric treatment provided by this utility model to treat patients with mental illness, the doctor first determines the number of acupuncture needles needed for the head, torso, arms, and legs in advance according to the treatment plan for the patient. Then, the pre-agreed acupuncture needles of different colors are placed in the four acupuncture needle storage areas 5 on the acupuncture kit according to their respective quantities. For example, it is agreed that acupuncture needles with red flakes are used for the head, acupuncture needles with yellow flakes are used for the torso, acupuncture needles with green flakes are used for the arms, and acupuncture needles with blue flakes are used for the legs. The information is recorded on the patient information card 6 of the acupuncture kit. At the same time, the total number of acupuncture needles and the number of acupuncture needles of different colors are recorded on the total number of acupuncture needles card 4 and the acupuncture needle quantity card 7, respectively. Then, the transparent cover 8 is closed to prevent dust.
[0014] After acupuncture treatment, return the acupuncture needles of different colors to their respective storage areas 5. Then, verify that the number of each type of acupuncture needle returned matches the numbers on the total number of acupuncture needles card 4 and the number of acupuncture needles card 7. If any color of acupuncture needle is missing, immediately examine the corresponding area on the patient's body. Additionally, if acupuncture needles are accidentally left in a hidden area on a patient with mental illness, they can be easily located using the colored film 1 on the needle.
