Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of medical devices, specifically to a positioning device for ultrasound examinations of infants and young children. Background Technology
[0002] Infants' bones are mainly composed of cartilage, and their muscles are gradually developing, but their strength and coordination are relatively weak. During the examination, infants may move involuntarily, which can cause artifacts in the ultrasound images, affecting the clarity of the images and the accuracy of the diagnosis.
[0003] However, existing infant immobilization devices are insufficient to flexibly immobilize the head, torso, and limbs of infants based on their physical structure, thus affecting the results of ultrasound examinations. Utility Model Content

[0028] As per the instruction manual Figure 1-5 As shown:
[0029] A positioning and immobilization device for infant ultrasound examinations includes: an infant support surface 100, a forehead movement and fixation structure 200, a waist fixation and restraint structure 300, an arm flexible fixation structure 400, and a thigh fixation and restraint structure 500. The waist fixation and restraint structure 300 is located in the middle of the infant support surface 100 and is used to fix the infant's torso. The forehead movement and fixation structure 200 is located on the upper part of the infant support surface 100 and includes an infant forehead restraint part, the position of which can be adjusted according to the infant's height. The arm flexible fixation structure 400 is located on both sides of the infant support surface 100 and is used to restrain the infant's arms. The thigh fixation and restraint structure 500 is located below the waist fixation and restraint structure 300 and is used to restrain the infant's thighs.
[0030] In this embodiment, after the infant's torso and legs are basically fixed, the infant's head is stably fixed through a movable fixing structure. Furthermore, based on the characteristics of infant activity, the infant's arms are flexibly fixed, effectively reducing involuntary movements and thus obtaining clearer images, shortening examination time, and improving the efficiency of ultrasound examination. Moreover, the selection of restraint sites is more flexible. Depending on the needs of the ultrasound examination, one or more parts of the infant's head, torso, or limbs can be restrained. For example, when it is necessary to examine the infant's abdomen, only the flexible arm fixing structure and the thigh fixing restraint structure are needed to restrain the infant's limbs, without fixing the head and waist.
[0031] Specifically, the forehead movement and fixing structure 200 includes a slide rail 220, a slide rail connecting block 230, and a forehead restraint band 210 for infants and young children. The forehead restraint band 210 connects two slide rail connecting blocks 230, which are located within the slide rail 220 and can move back and forth along the slide rail 220. During the back and forth movement of the slide rail connecting block 230 along the slide rail 220, it drives the forehead restraint band 210 to move back and forth. After reaching the appropriate position, the slide rail connecting block 230 can be fixed by means of limiting structures, clamping structures, or snap-fit structures, thus restraining the infant's forehead with the forehead restraint band 210. The combined action of the slide rail 220 and the forehead restraint band 210 achieves head restraint for infants and young children of different heights.
[0032] Specifically, the waist restraint structure 300 includes a first waist restraint belt 310, a second waist restraint belt 320, a first telescopic belt 315, and a second telescopic belt 325; the first waist restraint belt 310 and the second waist restraint belt 320 are detachably connected by Velcro 330; one end of the first telescopic belt 315 is fixed to the infant support surface 100, and the other end is connected to the first waist restraint belt 310; one end of the second telescopic belt 325 is fixed to the infant support surface 100, and the other end is connected to the second waist restraint belt 320.
[0033] Specifically, the flexible arm fixation structure 400 includes an arm restraint strap 410, a first arm restraint strap mounting block 420, and a second arm restraint strap mounting block 430. The arm restraint strap 410 connects the first arm restraint strap mounting block 420 and the second arm restraint strap mounting block 430 and is used to restrain the infant's arm.
[0034] Specifically, the flexible arm fixation structure 400 also includes a detachable mounting post 440; the infant support surface 100 also includes multiple mounting post receiving holes 110; the detachable mounting post 440 can be installed in the mounting post receiving holes 110. Medical personnel can install the detachable mounting post 440 of the flexible arm fixation structure 400 in the appropriate mounting post receiving holes 110 according to the requirements of the infant's torso position during ultrasound examination and the infant's comfortable position, thereby restraining the position of the infant's arm and fixing the infant's examination posture.
[0035] Specifically, a positioning fixation device for infant ultrasound examinations further includes a first flexible arm fixation structure 401, a second flexible arm fixation structure 402, a third flexible arm fixation structure 403, and a fourth flexible arm fixation structure 404. The first flexible arm fixation structure 401 is used to fix the infant's right upper arm / left upper arm; the second flexible arm fixation structure 402 is used to fix the infant's right forearm / left forearm; the third flexible arm fixation structure 403 is used to fix the infant's left upper arm / right upper arm; and the fourth flexible arm fixation structure 404 is used to fix the infant's left forearm / right forearm.
[0036] Specifically, the thigh fixation restraint structure 500 includes a thigh restraint strap 510, a thigh restraint strap mounting block 520, and a thigh restraint strap mounting buckle 530; the thigh restraint strap mounting block 520 is fixed to the infant support surface 100 and is used to connect one end of the thigh restraint strap 510; the other end of the thigh restraint strap 510 is connected to the thigh restraint strap mounting buckle 530, which can fasten to the fixing position (not shown in the figure) on the infant support surface 100, thereby fixing the infant's thigh.
[0037] Specifically, the infant-supporting surface 100 can be any one of the following: inspection bed surface, inspection work surface, or inspection table surface.
[0038] The description of the various embodiments above tends to emphasize the differences between the various embodiments. The similarities or similarities between them can be referred to, and for the sake of brevity, they will not be repeated here.
[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and not to limit them.
