Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical supplies technology, and in particular to drapes used in head and face surgeries. Background Technology

[0002] The main function of medical surgical masks is to block bacteria on the skin and prevent wounds from being invaded by external bacteria and viruses, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing infection. Since the disinfection of the patient's surgical area is actually completed in a short time, it only removes surface bacteria. Some bacteria deep in the pores may migrate out during the operation, and the medical surgical mask plays a protective role at this time. However, the inventors found that during surgery, the large amount of water used will cause water to be everywhere on the operating table, wetting the floor and soaking the surgeon's surgical gown, causing contamination. At the same time, the large amount of water used can also cause the medical surgical mask to not adhere completely, which can easily cause the cloth surgical drape to be completely soaked. The wet surgical drape is in direct contact with the patient's skin, which can easily cause the patient to lose body heat during the operation. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a drape for use in head and face surgery, in order to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art, and at least provide a beneficial option or create conditions.

[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 2 This utility model provides a drape for use in head and face surgery, and provides the following embodiments:

[0025] The drape used in head and face surgery includes a drape body 100 and a fluid collection section. The fluid collection section is located on the surface of the drape body 100 and is used to collect fluids generated during the surgery.

[0026] The drape body 100 is made of waterproof material, ensuring the surgical area remains dry in liquid environments and preventing blurred surgical vision or contamination of the surgical area due to liquid leakage during surgery. The drape body 100 has surgical holes 110, roughly corresponding to the facial area. Multiple concentric tear marks 120 are provided on the radial outer ring of the surgical holes 110. By verifying that each ring is torn off from the concentric tear marks 120, the diameter of the surgical holes 110 can be adjusted. Specifically, a larger surgical hole 110 results in more rings being torn off, and vice versa. By simply controlling the number of rings, it can adapt to the needs of different surgical areas, improving the adaptability and flexibility of the drape. Furthermore, each of the concentric tear marks 120 corresponds to an adhesive layer, allowing the area to be adhered to the face for fixation. The adhesive layer allows medical staff to easily attach it to the surgical area and remove it easily after surgery, reducing additional operations and time costs during the procedure.

[0027] In addition, a first shaping and fixing strip 130 is designed around the surgical opening 110. This design aims to assist the drape body 100 in unfolding smoothly, effectively reducing wrinkles and ensuring a flatter drape surface. This design not only improves the flatness of the drape but also facilitates the smooth flow of fluids during surgery. The first shaping and fixing strip 130 is specifically composed of an internally embedded steel wire strip and an externally tightly wrapped plastic layer. Of course, other plastic strips with similar shaping and wrapping effects can also be used to ensure its function is achieved. The plastic strip is usually made of polymer materials such as polyester and polypropylene. These materials have good toughness and tensile strength, which can effectively maintain the flatness of the drape body 100 and prevent excessive wrinkles during surgery. In addition, these plastic materials also have certain chemical resistance and corrosion resistance, and can meet various disinfection and cleaning requirements in the operating room.

[0028] The liquid collection section includes two liquid collection grooves 200 and two guide baffles 300 disposed on the surface of the drape body 100. The two guide baffles 300 are located on the front and rear sides of the surgical hole 110, and the two liquid collection grooves 200 are located on the left and right sides of the surgical hole 110. The two ends of the guide baffles 300 are respectively connected to the groove walls of the liquid collection grooves 200. A second shaping and fixing strip 150 is provided on the groove of the liquid collection groove 200, which can open up the entire liquid collection groove 200, solving the problem of poor water collection due to the flexibility of the drape body 100. The first shaping and fixing strip 130 includes a steel wire strip and a plastic layer or other plastic strip wrapped around the outer surface of the steel wire strip. Since the drape body 100 is laid on the human body, the two sides of the drape body 100 are lower, and the liquid naturally flows to the sides along the guide baffles 300 and collects in the liquid collection grooves 200.

[0029] The fluid collection trough 200 is designed near the edge of the drape body 100, presenting a V-shaped structure, which greatly improves the efficiency of fluid collection. The closed end of the fluid collection trough 200 is close to the edge of the drape and is equipped with a drainage hole 140, ensuring that the fluid generated during the operation can naturally converge to the drainage hole 140 area under the action of gravity.

[0030] A detachable interface is provided at the drainage hole 140, located on the back of the drape body 100, which is both concealed and practical. Through this detachable interface, the user can easily connect the drainage tube, so as to smoothly drain the liquid accumulated in the collection tank 200 without interfering with the surgical operation.

[0031] The perfect combination of this fluid collection tank 200 and the detachable interface not only ensures the dryness and cleanliness of the surgical area but also greatly simplifies the fluid handling process and improves surgical efficiency. In summary, this design cleverly solves the problem of fluid management during surgery, demonstrating excellent water collection and drainage effects. Furthermore, the drape body 100 within the range of the two guide edges 300 is transparent, allowing medical staff to directly observe the patient's tubing status, ensuring the safety and patency of the tubing during surgery, without affecting the patient's normal mouth opening and closing movements.

[0032] For head and facial surgeries, such as oral surgery, ENT surgery, and neurosurgery, the drape body 100 can be placed over the patient to expose the surgical site. The concentric tear lines 120 can be torn as needed to adjust the size of the surgical opening 110. Simultaneously, the first shaping and fixing strip 130 can be adjusted to make the drape body 100 smoother. During the surgery, fluids will flow along the surface of the drape body 100 to both sides, collect in the collection tank 200 along the guide edge 300, and drain out through the drainage hole 140. This drape is waterproof, preventing fluid leakage and effectively isolating the surgical area to prevent cross-infection. The pore size of the membrane can be adjusted according to the surgical area using the concentric tear lines 120.

[0033] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. All such equivalent modifications or substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
