Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical technology, and more specifically, it relates to a head and neck fixation device for turning over and lying prone. Background Technology

[0002] In modern surgery, patient positioning after anesthesia induction is a crucial step in ensuring surgical success, especially in orthopedic or plastic surgeries requiring a prone position, such as surgeries on the back, hip, or lower limbs. Typically, anesthesiologists induce anesthesia, establish and protect the airway, and assist in turning the patient to a prone position after induction. However, the head and neck are relatively vulnerable areas. If the cervical spine is not protected during this process, especially in patients with underlying osteoporosis or spinal lesions, the lack of muscle protection when using muscle relaxants can lead to cervical fractures or slippage, potentially resulting in paraplegia. Therefore, proper positioning and protection are paramount; even slight negligence can lead to serious complications.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a head and neck fixation device for turning over and lying prone to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] Based on the aforementioned problems in the existing technology, the purpose of this application is to provide a head and neck fixation device for turning over and lying prone, so as to protect the patient.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this application to solve its technical problem is: a head and neck fixation device for turning over and lying prone, including a base plate, a thermoplastic film is provided on the upper side of the base plate, the thermoplastic film is shaped according to the anatomical shape of the patient's head and neck after heating, and a number of fixing nails are provided on the upper edge of the base plate for fixing the thermoplastic film.

[0006] Furthermore, a soft liner is provided on the inner side of the thermoplastic film, and the soft liner is made of polyurethane foam.

[0007] Furthermore, the base plate is also provided with an eye cushion, which is a soft inflatable cushion, and the eye cushion is placed on the patient's forehead area.

[0008] Furthermore, positioning holes are provided at both ends of the eye cushion.

[0009] Furthermore, it includes an intraocular pressure monitoring module, which is used to monitor intraocular pressure in real time.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this invention are: by covering the patient's head and back with a base plate and thermoplastic film, it can not only provide head and neck protection during the process of turning the patient from a supine to a prone position, but also effectively support and protect the patient's head, neck and eyes during prone surgery, reduce surgery-related risks, and significantly improve the patient's safety and comfort.

[0014] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0015] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0016] In this utility model, unless otherwise stated, the orientations used, such as "up" and "down", usually refer to the direction shown in the accompanying drawings, or to the vertical, perpendicular, or gravitational direction; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "left" and "right" usually refer to the left and right shown in the accompanying drawings; "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of each component itself, but the above directional terms are not used to limit this utility model.

[0017] like Figure 1 As shown, this application provides a head and neck fixation device for turning over and lying prone, including a base plate 1. A thermoplastic film 2 is provided on the upper side of the base plate 1. The thermoplastic film 2 is shaped according to the anatomical shape of the patient's head and neck after heating, and hardens after cooling, so that the thermoplastic film 2 can provide personalized head and neck support and adapt to patients of different body types to ensure the axial stability of the head and neck during the turning process.

[0018] Several fixing nails 3 are provided on the upper edge of the base plate 1. The fixing nails 3 are used to fix the thermoplastic film 2.

[0019] The thermoplastic membrane 1 has a soft inner lining made of polyurethane foam to increase patient comfort and prevent pressure injuries caused by prolonged use.

[0020] An eye cushion 4 is also provided on the base plate 1. The eye cushion 4 is a soft inflatable cushion. The eye cushion 4 is placed on the patient's forehead area to prevent the patient's eyes from being directly compressed when lying prone.

[0021] The eye cushion 4 has positioning holes at both ends for fixing the eye cushion 4 with fixing pins 3.

[0022] The eye cushion 4 can be placed on the inside or outside of the thermoplastic film 1 as needed. In this embodiment, it is placed on the outside of the thermoplastic film 1 as an example.

[0023] A head and neck fixation device for turning over and lying prone also includes an intraocular pressure monitoring module (see patent documents CN104473616A and CN112603258A) for real-time monitoring of intraocular pressure. If the pressure exceeds the safe value, an alarm will be triggered to prompt adjustment.

[0024] This head and neck fixation device for turning over and prone positioning not only provides head and neck protection during the process of turning the patient from a supine to a prone position, but also effectively supports and protects the patient's head, neck and eyes during prone surgery, reducing surgery-related risks and significantly improving patient safety and comfort.
