[0031] The specific embodiments of this disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit this disclosure.

[0032] In the description of this disclosure, unless otherwise stated, "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of the corresponding components. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used to distinguish one element from another and do not have any order or importance.

[0033] In the description of this disclosure, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "set up," "connect," "link," and "install" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this disclosure according to the specific circumstances.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the present disclosure provides a restraint device for an agitated patient, including a base pad 10, upper limb restraints 20, and lower trunk restraints 30. The base pad 10 is used to be installed on a support structure. The base pad 10 includes a base pad body 11 and connecting portions 12 disposed on opposite sides of the base pad body 11. Upper limb restraints 20 are provided on both connecting portions 12. The lower trunk restraints 30 are slidably connected to the base pad 10 and are used to wrap around the lower trunk of the patient.

[0035] Through the above technical solution, the base pad 10 can be installed on the support structure, serving as the foundation of the entire restraint device. Since the upper limb restraint member 20 is located on the connecting portion 12 of the base pad 10, it can restrain the patient's upper limbs, preventing the patient from scratching or removing medical equipment, thereby reducing self-harm. The lower trunk restraint member 30 is used to wrap around the patient's lower trunk area to prevent the patient from falling off the bed during agitation, ensuring the patient's safety on the bed. Furthermore, since the lower trunk restraint member 30 is slidably connected to the base pad 10, it can move along the base pad body 11 to accommodate patients of different body types. The restraint device provided by this disclosure not only accommodates patients of different body types and needs but also ensures convenient operation for medical personnel while reducing the risk of self-harm or harm to others caused by patient agitation.

[0036] It should be understood that the lower torso may include the abdomen and legs. Therefore, the lower torso restraint 30 may restrain the patient's abdomen, restrain the patient's legs, or restrain both the patient's abdomen and legs. This disclosure does not limit this.

[0037] The supporting structure can be a treatment bed, a stretcher, or a wheelchair; this disclosure does not impose any restrictions on it.

[0038] Optionally, the base pad 10 can be constructed with a polyester fiber fabric outer layer, containing polyurethane foam filling, and covered with non-slip rubber on the bottom. This facilitates cleaning and disinfection, helps prevent liquid from penetrating into the interior of the base pad 10, keeps the base pad 10 dry and reduces the risk of cross-infection, and helps reduce the risk of skin irritation and pressure ulcers for patients, thus improving patient comfort.

[0039] Because the abdominal or leg positions of patients of different body types vary, in order for the lower trunk restraint member 30 to flexibly restrain the lower trunk of patients of different body types, as one implementation method, such as... Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the restraint device also includes a limiting component. The base pad body 11 includes a first part 111 and a second part 112 connected together. Connecting parts 12 are respectively provided on both sides of the first part 111. The second part 112 includes a first pad 1121 and a second pad 1122 arranged vertically. The first end of the first pad 1121 is connected to the first end of the first part 111 and the first end of the second pad 1122. The second end of the first pad 1121 is connected to the second end of the second pad 1122. There is a gap 13 between the first pad 1121 and the second pad 1122. The gap 13 is used for the lower torso restraint member 30 to pass through. A limiting component is provided on the second part 112. The lower torso restraint member 30 is slidably connected to the gap 13 and passes through the limiting component along the first direction.

[0040] The limiting component is located on the second part 112 and can control the range of movement of the lower torso restraint 30, ensuring that the lower torso restraint 30 will not accidentally slide or loosen during use. Specifically, during use, the lower torso restraint 30 passes through the gap 13 between the first pad 1121 and the second pad 1122, and moves along a first direction (e.g., Figure 1 (As shown) Slide to the appropriate position to accommodate patients of different body types. In addition, the use of the limiting components not only ensures that the lower trunk restraint 30 remains in a fixed position during use, preventing movement due to patient agitation and thus ensuring patient safety on the treatment bed, but also improves the flexibility and adaptability of the device.

[0041] As one implementation method, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the limiting component is constructed as a snap fastener group 40. The snap fastener group 40 includes a female snap fastener 41 disposed on the side of the first gasket 1121 facing the second gasket 1122 and a male snap fastener 42 disposed on the side of the second gasket 1122 facing the first gasket 1121. There are multiple snap fastener groups 40, including a first snap fastener group 40 and a second snap fastener group 40 arranged at intervals in a second direction. The first snap fastener group 40 includes multiple snap fastener groups 40 arranged at intervals along the first direction, and the second snap fastener group 40 includes multiple snap fastener groups 40 arranged at intervals along the first direction. The number of snap fastener groups 40 in the first snap fastener group 40 is equal to the number of snap fastener groups 40 in the second snap fastener group 40 and corresponds one-to-one. The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction. Specifically, after the lower torso restraint member 30 is adjusted to a suitable position, the female buckles 41 and male buckles 42 on both sides of the lower torso restraint member 30 can be engaged with each other. This arrangement allows the lower torso restraint member 30 to move in the first direction and restricts its movement in the second direction (e.g., ...). Figure 1 The lower torso constraint 30 can be moved upwards (as shown) to fix it in the desired position.

[0042] As one implementation method, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the lower torso restraint member 30 includes a restraint strap 31, a buckle portion 32, and a locking portion 33. The restraint strap 31 is elastic. One end of the restraint strap 31 is connected to the buckle portion 32, and the other end of the restraint strap 31 is connected to the locking portion 33. The buckle portion 32 and the locking portion 33 are fastened to each other so that the restraint strap 31 forms a ring structure.

[0043] Once the restraint strap 31 is adjusted to the appropriate position, medical staff can fasten the buckle part 32 and the locking part 33 together, so that the restraint strap 31 can form a complete loop structure for wrapping around the patient's lower torso. In addition, the restraint strap 31 is elastic, which ensures that the restraint strap 31 can adapt to patients of different body types (referring to latitude) while providing a certain degree of comfort during restraint.

[0044] As one implementation method, such as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, there are at least two lower trunk restraints 30, one of which is used to wrap around the patient's abdomen, and the other is used to wrap around the patient's legs.

[0045] By cooperating with each other at least two lower torso restraints 30, more comprehensive restraint and support can be provided, while also providing a certain degree of comfort during the restraint process.

[0046] In an embodiment where two lower torso restraint members 30 are used, one lower torso restraint member 30 is used to restrain the patient's abdomen, and the other lower torso restraint member 30 is used to wrap around the patient's legs. Since there is a gap between the two lower torso restraint members 30, the snap fastener group 40 on the outward side of the two lower torso restraint members 30 and the snap fastener group 40 between the two lower torso restraint members 30 can be fastened, thereby restricting the movement of the two lower torso restraint members 30 in the first direction. This ensures safe restraint for the patient during use, especially with a more secure restraint on the abdomen and legs. In other words, by enhancing the stability and safety of the entire device, it can prevent self-harm or harm to others that may be caused by the patient's agitation. As one implementation method, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 6 As shown, the upper limb restraint 20 is constructed as a glove structure, which includes a glove body 21, stiff Velcro 22, and soft Velcro 23. The glove body 21 has a receiving cavity for accommodating the patient's palm. The glove body 21 has a first opening 24 and a second opening 25 that communicate with the receiving cavity. The glove body 21 covers the patient's palm through the first opening 24, and the second opening 25 is used to expose the patient's fingers. The palm side of the glove body 21 is connected to the stiff Velcro 22, and the soft Velcro 23 is used to be set on the connecting part 12. The back of the glove body 21 is provided with an observation window 26 for inserting a needle into the back of the patient's hand.

[0047] The glove body 21 is provided with a first opening 24 and a second opening 25 that communicate with the receiving cavity. The first opening 24 is used to put the glove body 21 on the patient's hand, and the second opening 25 is used to expose the patient's fingers, allowing the patient's fingers to move freely or facilitating connection with medical devices.

[0048] The glove body 21 has a stiff hook-and-loop fastener 22 attached to the palm side, and a soft hook-and-loop fastener 23 attached to the connecting part 12. By adhering to the stiff hook-and-loop fastener 22 on the glove body 21, the glove body 21 is securely fixed to the connecting part 12 of the base pad 10, thus ensuring the patient's hand is safely restrained. Furthermore, some of the stiff hook-and-loop fastener 22 can be adhered to the soft hook-and-loop fastener 23, allowing adjustment of the position of the glove body 21 at the connecting part 12, i.e., increasing or decreasing the overall length of the glove body 21 and the connecting part 12. This ensures a good fit between the glove body 21 and the patient's arm, improving the safety and comfort of the restraint, and achieving the best restraint effect.

[0049] In addition, such as Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the back of the hand of the glove body 21 is provided with an observation window 26. The design of the observation window 26 can ensure that medical staff can perform necessary medical operations (such as inserting a needle into the back of the patient's hand to perform intravenous injection) without removing restraints, thereby improving nursing efficiency and patient comfort.

[0050] As one implementation method, such as Figure 1 As shown, the restraint device also includes a fixing strap 50 disposed on the base pad 10. The base pad 10 is a square pad, and there are multiple fixing straps 50. The multiple fixing straps 50 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the base pad 10. The multiple fixing straps 50 are used to fix the base pad 10 to the treatment bed.

[0051] Multiple fixing straps 50 are spaced apart along the circumference of the base pad 10. The connection between the fixing straps 50 and the base pad 10 can be by sewing, Velcro, or buckles.

[0052] In use, these securing straps 50 can be tied to the edge of the treatment bed or the bed frame, thus fixing the base pad 10 to the treatment bed and preventing the entire restraint device from moving or loosening due to patient agitation during use. The securing straps 50 provided in this disclosure not only provide a certain degree of flexibility, allowing the restraint device to adapt to treatment beds of different sizes, but also ensure the safety and stability of the entire restraint device.

[0053] The preferred embodiments of this disclosure have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this disclosure is not limited to the specific details of the above embodiments. Within the scope of the technical concept of this disclosure, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solutions of this disclosure, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of this disclosure.

[0054] It should also be noted that the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any suitable manner without contradiction. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, this disclosure will not describe the various possible combinations separately.

[0055] Furthermore, various different embodiments of this disclosure can be combined in any way, as long as they do not violate the spirit of this disclosure, they should also be regarded as the content disclosed in this disclosure.
