Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lithotripsy instruments, specifically to an auxiliary instrument for stone removal after lithotripsy. Background Technology
[0002] In the medical field, "lithotomy" generally refers to the treatment technique that uses physical methods to break up stones in the human body, such as kidney stones, gallstones, and ureteral stones, to help them pass out of the body. It is medically known as lithotripsy. Lithotripsy mainly includes extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy and intracorporeal lithotripsy. After extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, patients need to drink more water and exercise appropriately to help expel stone particles through physical therapy.
[0003] In physical therapy, patients can also promote the expulsion of stones through an external vibration stone-expelling bed. The procedure includes patient assessment, equipment inspection, patient preparation, body position adjustment, vibration parameter setting, and real-time monitoring. After the patient is secured to the stone-expelling bed with straps, a sponge pillow is inserted into the gap between the patient and the straps on one side to prevent the patient from sliding to one side during body position adjustment. After the procedure, the patient should be observed for about ten minutes to confirm that there is no discomfort such as dizziness or nausea before leaving.
[0004] After the patient is secured with a bandage, the medical staff need to insert multiple sponge pillows into the gap between the bandage and the patient to fill and limit the obstruction. The number of sponge pillows inserted varies depending on the patient's body size, making the operation quite troublesome. At the same time, the multiple sponge pillows also make the patient feel uncomfortable, which brings certain shortcomings to the stone expulsion bed. Utility Model Content
