TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to the surgical operation medical nursing articles technical field, and specifically relates to the breast cancer postoperative patient limb fixing nursing appliance. BACKGROUND
[0002] According to the report of the International Agency for Research on Cancer in 2020, at present, the new cases of breast cancer are as high as 2.26 million, more than 2.2 million cases of lung cancer, breast cancer replaces lung cancer and becomes the first cancer in the world. Although the incidence of breast cancer is increasing, the mortality rate is obviously decreasing, which benefits from the beneficial diagnosis and treatment methods taken after further understanding of the biological characteristics of breast cancer, therefore, postoperative comprehensive treatment emerges as the times require in modern breast cancer treatment, with the gradual deepening of people's understanding of breast cancer, the treatment means is updated and gradually improved, and people's pursuit of beauty is more intense, the worldwide breast cancer treatment collaboration organization large-scale research thinks that the breast-conserving surgery of local resection + axillary lymph node dissection has the same efficacy as modified radical mastectomy, above many factors determine that the breast-conserving surgery has great progress compared with modified radical mastectomy in appearance and function, and there is no significant statistical difference in treatment effect, therefore, it is more accepted by patients.
[0003] In the Meta analysis of risk factors of breast cancer related lymphedema in Chinese women, the fixed effect model is used for Meta analysis, and it is shown that axillary lymph node dissection is an influencing factor of postoperative lymphedema (OR=2.30, 95%CI (1.88, 2.81), P<0.000 01), the incidence rate is 15%-29%, and the incidence rate gradually increases with time. Upper limb lymphedema has always been a difficult problem in the recovery period of patients in clinic, it not only causes shoulder joint dysfunction and appearance change of patients, but also has negative influence on the psychology of patients, and seriously affects the quality of life of patients. At present, the prevention and management are mainly used for postoperative lymphedema in medicine. Since upper limb lymphedema can cause a series of symptoms of the body, lead to inconvenience of patients in life and work, and increase the psychological burden of patients, so it is increasingly concerned and valued by clinical medical staff.
[0004] The related research shows that the venous and lymphatic return is poor after breast cancer surgery, the soft pillow is used to elevate the upper limb of the affected side by 30 degrees after the operation, so that the venous and lymphatic return can be improved, and the occurrence of edema of the affected limb can be effectively prevented.
[0005] The method of lifting the affected limb after surgery commonly used in current clinical medical care process is to place a common household soft pillow under the affected limb. The shape of the common household soft pillow is mostly a single rectangle, and the length and width thereof are greatly different from the length of the upper limb of the patient. There are more skeletal tissues at the shoulder joint of the upper limb of the human body, and there are physiological gaps and angles, and the upper limb of the human body is stretched and moved from different directions. Therefore, the single fixed mode of the common household soft pillow cannot meet the demand of individualized lifting of the affected limb. Meanwhile, the fixed mode needs to temporarily lift the affected side of the body of the patient to effectively fix the patient, which can cause the possibility of sliding of the skin flap after breast cancer surgery, bleeding of the wound, and displacement of the internal drainage tube, greatly increasing the risk of reoperation of the breast cancer patient.
[0006] In order to reduce and prevent the occurrence of upper limb lymphedema of the patient after surgery, avoid possible postoperative risks in operation, improve the existing problems, provide a breast cancer postoperative patient limb fixation nursing appliance, better lift and fix the upper limb of the patient, effectively prevent the occurrence of postoperative lymphedema of the patient, achieve the purpose of finding and solving problems, and improve the use value and expand the use range to the fixation of the upper limb surgery except the breast cancer operation area. SUMMARY
[0007] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a breast cancer postoperative patient limb fixation nursing appliance to solve the existing technical problems in clinic, so that the upper limb of the patient after surgery is better fixed, the incidence of postoperative lymphedema is reduced, the upper limb of the patient is protected, the occurrence of postoperative related complications is reduced, and the observation and operation of the clinician and the nurse are facilitated.
[0008] The technical scheme for solving the above technical problem is as follows: a breast cancer postoperative patient limb fixation nursing appliance, which comprises a "heart" type appliance body, a cotton outer package and a filling inner core. The first layer of the material is the cotton outer package layer, which is located on the surface of the whole appliance, and the filling inner core is the second layer, which is wrapped inside the cotton outer package layer. The "heart" type appliance body has a shoulder fixing area at the upper part, which is a corner protruding from the upper part of the "heart" type body, and is divided into three parts according to the human body structure from the same surface downward. The appliance forms a shoulder fixing area, an inner fixing area, a wound protection area, an outer fixing area and an elbow fixing area. The inner fixing area is located on the inner side of the appliance body and is close to the human body. The wound protection area covers the operation area to prevent the skin flap from sliding. The outer fixing area is located on the outer side of the appliance body and contacts the upper limb of the human body. The elbow fixing area is located at the lower end of the appliance body and is a corner extending from the lower part of the "heart" type body. The utility model has the advantages of simple structure, easy operation and use, firm fixation of the upper limb of the breast cancer postoperative patient, individualized use, visual beauty and wide application in the field of upper limb fixation in surgical operation.
