Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rehabilitation assistive medical device technology, and in particular to an assistive device for limb elevation after orthopedic surgery. Background Technology
[0002] Following orthopedic surgery, limb elevation is often necessary to promote blood flow and reduce swelling and pain. Limb elevation assistive devices play a crucial role in this process, providing patients with a comfortable platform that meets their treatment needs. In actual orthopedic settings, these assistive devices are indispensable, both in hospital wards and during home rehabilitation.
[0003] 1. Sponge or memory foam layer: Traditional assisted elevation pads typically have sponge or memory foam as the core of the elevation. Sponge has good elasticity and can deform to a certain extent according to the shape of the limb, providing relatively comfortable support.
[0004] 2. Outer covering fabric: This is the part that comes into direct contact with the limbs, and it is usually made of soft, breathable fabric.
[0005] 3. Hard plastic or wooden board bottom: In order to maintain a certain shape and height, the bottom of the pad will be supported by hard plastic or wooden board.
[0006] Currently, in the field of postoperative rehabilitation assistive devices for orthopedic injuries, some advanced assistive devices have begun to apply a variety of technologies and design concepts. For example, some assistive devices adopt ergonomic design to make them more comfortable for patients to use; others have innovated in terms of materials, using soft and breathable materials to avoid discomfort to the patient's skin.
[0007] However, traditional limb elevation pads have many shortcomings. In terms of height adjustment, traditional pads cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the patient's specific condition and treatment needs, making it difficult to meet the differences in physical conditions and recovery stages among different patients. Regarding limb immobilization, traditional pads lack effective fixation measures, allowing limbs to easily shift during use, which not only affects treatment effectiveness but may also cause patient discomfort. The postoperative limb elevation assistive device for orthopedic injuries involved in this solution has significant advantages. It allows for height adjustment of the assistive pad, precisely adjusting it to a suitable height based on the patient's actual needs and the advice of medical staff, meeting the elevation requirements of different patients and their conditions. Furthermore, it is equipped with flexible fixation straps that can stably fix the patient's limbs on the assistive pad while ensuring patient comfort, preventing limb displacement, ensuring treatment effectiveness, and improving the patient's user experience. Utility Model Content
[0008] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a postoperative limb elevation assistive device for orthopedic surgery, which solves the problems of traditional mats being unable to be flexibly adjusted according to the patient's specific condition and treatment needs, and the lack of effective fixation measures for the patient's limbs, which makes the limbs prone to displacement during use.
[0009] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0010] A postoperative limb elevation assistive device for orthopedic surgery includes a fixation plate. An auxiliary pad for supporting the leg is rotatably connected to the upper surface of the fixation plate. An auxiliary pad for placing the leg is rotatably connected to the right surface of the auxiliary pad. A fixing rod is provided above the fixation plate. A telescopic screw is provided inside the fixing rod. A set of fixing straps for fixing is provided on the upper surface of the auxiliary pad. A threaded groove is opened on the upper surface of the fixing rod. The threaded groove is threadedly sleeved with the screw. The height of the auxiliary pad can be adjusted by rotating the screw.
[0011] Preferably, the lower surface of the auxiliary pad is provided with a limiting groove, the upper surface of the screw is rotatably connected to a limiting block, the limiting block is movably connected to the limiting groove, each fixing strap has a hook surface fixedly connected to the side opposite to the auxiliary pad, and a set of rough surfaces are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixing strap, and the set of rough surfaces are respectively adhered and fixed to the set of hook surfaces. The flexible design of the fixing strap itself can fit the patient's leg, ensuring fixation without putting too much pressure on the patient's leg.
[0012] Preferably, a handle is fixedly connected to the annular side of the screw, a second limiting block is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the fixing rod, a first limiting groove is formed on the upper surface of the fixing plate, and the first limiting groove is movably connected to the second limiting block. By fixing, the limb can be prevented from shifting due to the patient's unconscious movements.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. By rotating the handle, the screw fixed to it rotates together. During the rotation, the screw moves in and out of the fixed rod due to the action of the thread. During the movement of the screw, the auxiliary pad II above will move up and down together. As the movement continues, the position of the fixed rod also moves. By rotating the screw, the height of the auxiliary pad II can be adjusted. This ensures patient comfort while allowing medical staff to more precisely adjust the position of the limb according to the specific condition and recovery stage, thus meeting the needs of use.
[0015] 2. After the patient's leg is positioned, attach the hook side and the loop side of the fixation strap. The flexible design of the fixation strap itself can conform to the patient's leg, ensuring fixation without putting too much pressure on the patient's leg. Fixation can prevent the limb from shifting due to the patient's unconscious movements (such as turning over in sleep, natural limb twitching, etc.), ensuring that the leg is always in an elevated position that is conducive to venous blood return, avoiding blood pooling due to changes in limb position, and reducing swelling and pain.

[0041] Working principle:
[0042] During use, the patient's legs are placed on auxiliary pad 1 (2) and auxiliary pad 2 (3). Auxiliary pad 2 (3) is then adjusted to a suitable height as needed. Rotating the handle 9 causes the screw 8 fixed to it to rotate as well. During rotation, the screw 8, under the action of the thread, moves within the fixed rod 5, causing the auxiliary pad 2 (3) to move up and down. As the movement continues, the position of the fixed rod 5 also moves accordingly. By rotating the screw 8, the height of auxiliary pad 2 (3) can be adjusted, ensuring patient comfort while allowing medical staff to adjust the height as needed. The position of the limbs is adjusted more meticulously according to the patient's condition and recovery stage to meet the needs of use. After the patient's leg is placed, the hook surface 14 and the rough surface 13 of the fixation strap 4 are attached. The flexible design of the fixation strap 4 itself can fit the patient's leg, ensuring fixation without putting too much pressure on the patient's leg. Fixation can prevent the limb from shifting due to the patient's unconscious movements (such as turning over in sleep, natural twitching of the limbs, etc.), ensuring that the leg is always in an elevated state that is conducive to venous blood return, avoiding blood stasis caused by changes in limb position, and reducing swelling and pain.
[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
