Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of neck fixation pillows, specifically a neck support and fixation pillow. Background Technology
[0002] The human neck is composed of cervical vertebrae, muscles, ligaments, and nerves, and has important functions such as supporting the head, maintaining head flexibility, and protecting the spinal cord and nerves. The physiological curvature of the neck is crucial for maintaining the stability and function of the cervical spine. In some patients with tracheal or esophageal rupture, the position to be maintained after tracheal or esophageal repair surgery is to keep the head, neck, and torso in a straight line with the chin close to the chest, in order to prevent the airway or esophageal surgical site from rupturing and causing secondary injury to the patient.
[0003] Currently, it is very difficult for patients with severe conditions who are unable to take care of themselves to maintain a straight head, neck, and torso with their chin close to their chest when they return to the ward after surgery. The patient's head tends to turn to one side, and the chin is sometimes not able to effectively approach the chest. Nurses need to spend more time helping the patient adjust their position, and it takes at least three nurses to turn the patient over.
[0004] Therefore, a neck support and fixation pillow is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content
