Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of neck compression device technology, and in particular to a compression device for use after anterior cervical surgery. Background Technology
[0002] After anterior cervical surgery, to reduce wound bleeding and prevent bone fragment dislocation, immobilization with sandbag compression is commonly used in clinical practice. However, directly placing sandbags on the wound for compression can cause them to fall off when the patient moves. Additionally, after anterior cervical surgery, medical staff need to observe the patient's neck circumference to assess neck swelling and determine if a hematoma has formed. This routine testing is very labor-intensive for medical staff. To address these issues, a new compression structure needs to be designed. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a compression device for postoperative anterior cervical surgery, which has the characteristics of conveniently improving the fixation of sandbags, reducing the labor intensity of medical staff, and real-time monitoring of patients' postoperative recovery.

[0030] Example
[0031] like Figure 4 As shown in Figure 5, the compressor body 1 has three parallel internal chambers 15. The left internal chamber 15 contains a battery 16, and the middle internal chamber 15 contains a control panel 17. The control panel 17 is equipped with a pressure sensor 20 for inserting the compression airbag 4 and a buzzer alarm 23. An injection pipe 18 is installed on one side of the control panel 17. The rear end of the injection pipe 18 is connected to the compression airbag 4. A miniature electric cylinder 22 with its main shaft inserted into the injection pipe 18 is installed at the front end of the injection pipe 18. A sealing block 21 is installed on the main shaft of the miniature electric cylinder 22. An air pump 19 is installed in the right internal chamber 15. The air outlet of the air pump 19 is connected to the upper rear end of the injection pipe 18 through a pipe.
[0032] A vent 11 is provided on the right end of the compressor body 1. The vent 11 is a horizontal strip and there are three of them, arranged side by side. A charging port 10 is provided on the left end of the compressor body 1.
[0033] When medical staff operate the device, they first install the detachable compression sandbag 5 on the back of the compression device body 1, and then install the device directly from the front of the patient's neck. The patient's neck is located in the positioning space 7, and the neck is fixed for a second time by two support pads 8. At the same time, the patient's chin needs to be placed in the groove 9 of the chin support block 3. After completion, the free end of the strap 6 passes through the strap docking ring 14 and is knotted for fixation.
[0034] After completing the above operations, the air pump 19 of the starting device is started, and air is discharged from the outlet of the air pump 19. The gas fills the compression airbag 4 through the connecting pipe and the injection pipe 18. The air pressure value inside the compression airbag 4 is detected by the air pressure sensor 20 and input into the control panel 17. The control panel 17 compares the values. When the value reaches the set value, the control panel 17 will control the air pump 19 to stop working. At the same time, the control panel 17 will control the micro electric cylinder 22 to start. The main shaft of the micro electric cylinder 22 extends, and the sealing block 21 will block the injection pipe 18, so that the air pressure inside the compression airbag 4 is constant.
[0035] When a patient develops a hematoma, the patient's neck thickens, which pushes and compresses the airbag 4. This causes a change in air pressure inside the airbag 4. If the pressure change lasts for more than five seconds, the control panel 17 will receive a signal and activate the buzzer alarm 23. The buzzer alarm 23 will notify the medical staff to remind them that the patient has developed a hematoma.
