Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary equipment technology, specifically to an abdominal binder-type ascites absorbent towel. Background Technology

[0002] Ascites refers to the excessive accumulation of free fluid in the abdominal cavity. It is a common clinical symptom in the course of many diseases and can be caused by various factors such as liver disease (e.g., cirrhosis), cardiovascular disease, peritoneal disease, kidney disease, and nutritional disorders. The presence of ascites not only causes discomfort such as abdominal distension, bloating, and abdominal pain, severely impacting the patient's quality of life, but can also lead to a series of complications, such as respiratory distress, infection, and electrolyte imbalance, posing a threat to the patient's life and health.

[0003] For patients with a large amount of ascites, after the ascites is drained or the abdominal drainage tube is removed, local disinfection, gauze covering, or even abdominal compression bandaging are usually used to prevent leakage. Currently, in clinical practice, a dressing is usually used to cover the puncture site and then fixed to the skin with adhesive tape. This method is less comfortable for patients, and the dressing cannot effectively absorb the ascites. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide an abdominal binder-type absorbent towel to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an abdominal binder-type absorbent towel, comprising an abdominal binder and an absorbent towel, wherein the abdominal binder and the absorbent towel are fixedly connected by Velcro, and a transparent observation port is provided in the middle of the absorbent towel; a composite layer structure is provided in the middle of the abdominal binder, the composite layer structure comprising an adhesive layer, an absorbent layer, a conductive layer and a fixing layer; and a pH test strip is provided on the conductive layer.

[0006] Based on the above solution and as a preferred embodiment of the above solution: the adhesive layer is made of medical silicone material, and the inner surface of the adhesive layer is provided with a plurality of micro-bump structures, the micro-bump structures being hemispherical.

[0007] Based on the above scheme and as a preferred embodiment of the above scheme: the absorbent layer is woven from a mixture of highly absorbent resin fibers and antibacterial fibers, and the thickness of the absorbent layer is 3-8mm.

[0008] Based on the above solution and as a preferred embodiment of the above solution: the fixing layer is made of elastic bandage material, the width of the elastic bandage is 10-20cm and the thickness is 2-4mm.

[0009] Based on the above scheme and as a preferred embodiment of the above scheme: the abdominal binder and absorbent towel are both long strips, with a length of 50-150cm and a width of 20-40cm.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] (1) The ascites absorbent towel of this utility model can be used to observe whether the pH test strip shows a color change, so that nurses and patients can intuitively judge whether the ascites absorbed by the towel is saturated. This makes it easier to change the ascites towel in time, avoid soiling clothes and bedding, greatly improve the convenience of use, and also avoid the leakage of ascites to contaminate the covering dressing, which could lead to abdominal infection and reduce the occurrence of nursing safety accidents.

[0012] (2) The transparent observation port in the middle of the abdominal binder allows medical staff or patients to observe the abdominal condition at any time without having to frequently untie the binder, reducing the complexity of the procedure and the disturbance to the patient. The observation port allows for a direct view of the ascites absorption and the condition of the abdominal skin. Attached Figure Description

However, the specific implementation methods and embodiments described below are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0017] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0018] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0019] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise explicitly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0020] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can mean that the first feature is in direct contact with the second feature, or that the first feature is in indirect contact with the second feature through an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "over" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0021] See attached diagram. Figures 1 to 3 In this embodiment, an abdominal binder-type ascites absorbent towel includes an abdominal binder 2 and an absorbent towel 1. The abdominal binder 2 and the absorbent towel 1 are fixedly connected by Velcro 3. A transparent observation port 4 is provided in the middle of the abdominal binder 2. A composite layer structure is provided in the middle of the absorbent towel 1. The composite layer structure includes an adhesive layer 5, an absorbent layer 6, a conductive layer 7, and a fixing layer 8. A pH test strip is provided on the conductive layer 7.

[0022] In this embodiment, the absorbent layer 6 is woven from a mixture of highly absorbent resin fibers and antibacterial fibers, with a thickness of 3-8 mm. The highly absorbent resin fibers have a strong water absorption capacity, which can quickly absorb and lock in ascites fluid seeping from the abdominal cavity, reduce the accumulation of ascites fluid outside the abdominal cavity, and relieve the patient's discomfort symptoms such as abdominal distension and bloating caused by excessive ascites fluid.

[0023] The addition of antibacterial fibers not only enhances the structural strength of the absorbent layer, allowing it to maintain its shape and integrity even after absorbing large amounts of ascites and preventing fiber breakage and detachment, but also inhibits bacterial growth. During ascites absorption, this prevents bacterial proliferation within the absorbent layer, reducing the risk of infection caused by ascites accumulation and providing patients with a relatively clean and safe absorption environment, thus aiding in their recovery.

[0024] In this embodiment, the adhesive layer 5 is made of medical-grade silicone material, which is soft and has good biocompatibility. When in direct contact with the patient's abdominal skin, it can minimize skin irritation and avoid adverse reactions such as allergies. Its hemispherical micro-bump structure increases the friction between the adhesive layer and the skin, preventing the absorbent drape from shifting during use and ensuring it remains in the correct position for effective absorption of ascites. Furthermore, the micro-bump structure promotes skin microcirculation, improves local blood supply, and helps maintain healthy skin.

[0025] The excellent flexibility and conformability of the 5th layer allow it to closely fit the abdominal contours, effectively preventing ascites leakage from the edges. Even during patient activity, it maintains close contact with the skin, avoiding ascites leakage caused by loose absorbent drapes, thus providing reliable protection for the patient.

[0026] In this embodiment, the transparent observation port 4 located in the middle of the abdominal binder allows medical staff or the patient to observe the abdominal condition at any time without frequently untying the binder, reducing the complexity of the procedure and the disturbance to the patient. The observation port allows for direct observation of ascites absorption, abdominal skin condition, etc., helping to promptly detect abnormalities such as skin redness and swelling, changes in ascites color, etc., so that appropriate measures can be taken.

[0027] The pH test strips installed on the conductive layer 7 can provide preliminary monitoring of the acidity and alkalinity of ascites fluid. Changes in the acidity and alkalinity of ascites fluid may reflect changes in the patient's condition or potential complications, such as infection. Healthcare professionals can obtain information about the properties of ascites fluid by regularly observing the color changes of the pH test strips, providing a reference for diagnosis and treatment, enabling dynamic monitoring of the patient's condition, and improving the timeliness and accuracy of medical care.

[0028] The fixation layer 8 is made of elastic bandage material, with a width of 10-20cm and a thickness of 2-4mm. The elastic bandage has good elasticity and tensile strength, which can adapt to the changes in abdominal size of different patients, providing sufficient fixation without causing excessive constriction to the patient.

[0029] Both the abdominal binder 2 and the absorbent towel 1 are long strips, each 50-150cm in length and 20-40cm in width, which can meet the abdominal coverage needs of most patients and can be adjusted appropriately according to the patient's actual body shape. The appropriate size ensures that the absorbent towel can fully cover the area where ascites may leak out, improving the efficiency and reliability of ascites absorption, while also ensuring the stability and comfort of the abdominal binder during fixation.

[0030] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of the present utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
