Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the medical field, specifically a restraint glove for comatose patients. Background Technology

[0002] In the medical field, restraint gloves are nursing tools used to prevent unplanned removal of therapeutic catheters and to avoid scratching the skin. In medical practice, we often encounter patients who are comatose, mentally unstable, have impaired consciousness, or are uncooperative during examinations and treatments. These patients may scratch their skin or grasp and pull out leads or catheters, posing significant safety hazards. Restraint gloves are used on these patients to immobilize their entire hand inside the glove, reducing the likelihood of such incidents.

[0003] However, in practical use, the following problems exist:

[0004] 1. Existing restraint gloves use straps to repeatedly wrap and fix the wrist, which is cumbersome and inconvenient to operate;

[0005] Second, the binding straps can be loosened by the patient's mouth or by the family members themselves. Medical staff cannot be with the patient 24 hours a day, so currently medical staff cannot control or guarantee the wearing status of restraint gloves.

[0006] Therefore, a special type of restraint glove is needed to solve the aforementioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a restraint glove for comatose patients, which can be put on conveniently and quickly, and can automatically lock. It can flexibly adjust the degree of restraint according to the size of the patient's wrist, monitor the wearing status in real time during the patient's treatment, and can provide timely feedback to medical staff. In addition, it can also realize the patient's call function while restrained.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0009] A restraint glove for comatose patients includes a palm sleeve, a wrist sleeve, a locking structure, and a monitoring structure. The palm sleeve and the wrist sleeve are integrally connected. The locking structure includes a restraint ring, an adaptation layer, and a control component. The adaptation layer is elastically set and is disposed on the inner sidewall of the restraint ring. The restraint ring is fixedly disposed at the wrist sleeve. The control component is disposed at the restraint ring to adjust the inner diameter of the restraint ring. The monitoring structure is disposed at the palm sleeve and / or the wrist sleeve to provide real-time feedback on the wearing status.

[0010] Compared with existing technologies, the restraint gloves for comatose patients that adopt the above technical solution have the following beneficial effects:

[0011] I. This utility model of a restraint glove for comatose patients utilizes the elastic structure of a restraint ring and an adapting layer to simultaneously lock the wrist area while the glove is slipped onto the hand. A control component further locks and reinforces the restraint, making it convenient and efficient to operate. It eliminates the need for repeated wrapping of the wrist, and because the adjustment point is located within the inner diameter of the restraint ring, it prevents patients or family members from easily loosening the glove. Furthermore, the adapting layer effectively compresses and fills the gap between the restraint ring and the wrist, increasing connectivity and preventing excessive pressure on the wrist skin.

[0012] Second, the reinforced locking and unlocking operation of the control components makes it difficult for patients and their families to release the gloves without being informed. At the same time, the wearing status can be monitored and fed back in real time through the monitoring structure. If uncooperative patients or their families forcibly pull on the gloves, medical staff can promptly detect, remind, stop, and restore the restraint status, ensuring the wearing status of the restraint gloves and thus increasing the protection of the patient's life safety.

[0013] Preferably, the control component includes an elastic sheet, a locking block, a locking groove, and a control button. An annular groove is provided between the restraining ring and the adapting layer. The elastic sheet is movably disposed in the annular groove, with one end of the elastic sheet fixedly connected to the annular groove. The control button is disposed on the side wall of the other end of the elastic sheet and is exposed to the outside. Multiple locking grooves are provided, and the multiple locking grooves are evenly spaced along the outer circumferential surface of the restraining ring and are connected to the annular groove. The locking block is elastically disposed, and the side of the locking block facing the multiple locking grooves is inclined. When the elastic sheet is stretched and displaced in the annular groove, the locking block automatically enters each locking groove in sequence.

[0014] Utilizing the stretching and deforming properties of the locking block, the guiding effect of the inclined surface, and the stretching and deforming properties of the elastic sheet, when the control button drives the elastic sheet to extend and partially displace, the locking block can be disengaged from the current locking groove. When the locking block moves to another locking groove, it can automatically reset and re-enter that groove, achieving the purpose of adjusting the end of the elastic sheet and locking the adjusted state. Furthermore, as the elastic sheet extends and displaces within the ring groove, the gradual wrapping action of the elastic sheet towards the wrist, along with the increasing elastic wrapping surface of the adaptation layer and wrist skin, causes the inner diameter of the restraint ring to gradually contract, further reinforcing the restraint.

[0015] Preferably, a control rod is provided through the end of the elastic sheet that is not connected to the annular groove, and control buttons are connected to both ends of the control rod, with the control buttons being elastically set. The cooperation of the control rod and the control buttons at both ends allows for full control of the end of the elastic sheet, thereby improving the convenience of adjustment operations.

[0016] Preferably, the wrist sleeve has a reinforcing ring on the outer side corresponding to the restraint ring, and the reinforcing ring is elastically designed. Utilizing the elasticity of the reinforcing ring itself, the adaptation layer is compressed to better fit the wrist skin, effectively increasing connection stability and tightness.

[0017] Preferably, the monitoring structure includes a temperature sensor and a feedback device. The feedback device is a buzzer or a wireless transmission module. The temperature sensor sends messages to the terminal device at the nurse's station via the wireless transmission module. By using the temperature sensor and the feedback device together, the temperature information of the hand and wrist is fed back, thereby determining whether the restraint glove has come off, and also assisting in determining whether the patient's body temperature is abnormal, thus increasing the functionality of the restraint glove.

[0018] Preferably, some of the temperature sensors are located on both sides of the palm sleeve corresponding to the palm position. By installing temperature sensors on both sides, the temperature of the palm and the back of the hand can be monitored simultaneously, avoiding the problem of the restraint glove being removed but only one side of the glove being in contact with the patient, thus ensuring that the restraint glove is properly worn.

[0019] Preferably, the palm sleeve has a gripper connected to the palm at a position corresponding to the center of the palm. The gripper is elastic, with a sweat-absorbing layer on its outer surface. An alarm and a trigger button are integrated in the middle of the gripper. The alarm is remotely connected to the terminal device at the nurses' station via a network module. The elastic gripper allows the patient to relax and exercise their hand muscles, while the sweat-absorbing layer ensures comfortable gripping. In cases where the patient needs to call for help, or in situations where they automatically clench their fist due to tension, discomfort, epilepsy, or worsening of certain conditions, the trigger button can be pressed actively or passively. This is suitable for scenarios where hand restraints prevent the bedside call system from being activated, increasing functionality and ensuring patient safety.

[0020] Preferably, the wrist sleeve is connected to a restraint strap, which can be wrapped around the bed rail or handrail and secured in place. The restraint strap keeps the patient's hand in a specific position, preventing accidental extubation caused by arm movement and further ensuring safety. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 4 The restraint glove shown is for use on comatose patients and includes a palm sleeve, a wrist sleeve, a locking structure, and a monitoring structure.

[0028] The palm sleeve and wrist sleeve are integrated and connected, and the surface of the palm sleeve has multiple breathable mesh holes.

[0029] The locking structure includes a restraint ring, an adaptation layer, and a control component.

[0030] The adaptation layer is elastic (such as medical silicone or medical rubber) and is located on the inner wall of the restraint ring. The restraint ring is fixed to the wrist sleeve, and the control component is located at the restraint ring to adjust the inner diameter of the restraint ring.

[0031] The control components include an elastic sheet, a locking block, a locking groove, and a control button.

[0032] A groove is provided between the restraining ring and the adapting layer. The elastic sheet is movably disposed in the groove, with one end of the elastic sheet fixedly connected to the groove. The control button is located on the side wall of the other end of the elastic sheet and is exposed to the outside. Multiple locking grooves are provided, and the multiple locking grooves are evenly spaced along the outer circumference of the restraining ring. The locking grooves are connected to the groove. The locking blocks are elastically set, and the side of the locking block facing the multiple locking grooves is inclined. When the elastic sheet is stretched and displaced in the groove, the locking blocks automatically enter each locking groove in sequence.

[0033] To enhance control over the end of the elastic sheet, a rigid control rod is provided through the end of the elastic sheet that is not connected to the annular groove. Control buttons are connected to both ends of the control rod. Furthermore, to avoid causing discomfort to the patient's wrist, the control buttons are designed to be flexible.

[0034] Furthermore, the outer circumference of the restraint ring in this case is elastically designed, and in conjunction with the internal adaptation layer, it can automatically lock the wrist for restraint. The aforementioned control components can further reinforce and lock this restraint state. Based on this, the wrist sleeve of this embodiment is provided with a reinforcing ring plate at the position corresponding to the restraint ring, and the reinforcing ring plate is elastically designed. The reinforcing ring plate can automatically contract to tightly fit the restraint ring, further pressing the adaptation layer towards the wrist skin, increasing the fit and restraint effect of the adaptation layer on the wrist.

[0035] The monitoring structure is located on the palm sleeve and / or wrist sleeve to provide real-time feedback on the wearing status. In this embodiment, both the palm sleeve and the wrist sleeve are equipped with the monitoring structure.

[0036] The monitoring structure includes a temperature sensor and a feedback unit. The feedback unit uses a buzzer or a wireless transmission module. The temperature sensor transmits information to the terminal device at the nurse's station via the wireless transmission module. The temperature sensor can be an existing miniature temperature sensor, and the wireless transmission module includes, but is not limited to, existing wireless networks, Bluetooth, Zigbee, Z-Wave, and other wireless modules. Correspondingly, the monitoring structure also includes a power supply structure, a miniature control circuit board, and a circuit structure for short-range connection between the temperature sensor, feedback unit, and control circuit board. The power supply structure can use a button battery to meet the monitoring power needs throughout the patient's treatment cycle. The terminal device at the nurse's station includes, but is not limited to, a computer and a handheld device.

[0037] Some temperature sensors are located on the two sides of the palm sleeve corresponding to the palm position, that is, temperature sensors are installed in the middle of both sides of the palm sleeve, which can detect the temperature data of the palm and the back of the hand.

[0038] The palm sleeve has a gripper connected to the palm, which is elastic and has a sweat-absorbing layer on its outer surface. An alarm and trigger button are integrated in the center of the gripper. The alarm is remotely connected to the terminal device at the nurse's station via a network module. The network module in this embodiment can refer to wireless network protocols such as Wi-Fi or LAN, and the alarm's power supply can refer to a button battery or a pre-charged battery.

[0039] In addition, the gripping part can be connected to the inside of the palm sleeve through a strip structure, allowing the patient to hold it when wearing it and press the trigger button when needed. Multiple finger rings can also be provided on the gripping part for the patient to slip their fingers on.

[0040] In addition, the wrist sleeve is connected to a restraint strap (made of pure cotton or elastic rubber), which can be wrapped around the bed rail or armrest and attached to secure it.

[0041] During use, the patient's hand is slipped into the sleeve, with the palm and wrist positioned within it, and the patient gripping the wrist. During insertion, due to the pressure of the reinforcing ring, the elastic force of the outer side of the restraint ring, the pressure of the elastic sheet, and the contractility and deformation of the adapting layer, the restraint ring will tightly contract at the wrist, and the adapting layer will deform appropriately to fit the shape of the wrist. In other words, the wrist sleeve automatically contracts and fixes itself to the outer circumference of the wrist.

[0042] To further reinforce the restraint, medical personnel should grasp the exposed control buttons at both ends of the control lever with their thumb and forefinger, and pull on the ends of the elastic plate to stretch and partially displace it within the annular groove. Figure 2 As shown, because the locking block is an elastic structure, and due to the guiding effect of the inclined surface, when the end of the elastic plate is displaced by force, the inclined surface contacts the opening of the locking groove, and part of the force is applied to the locking block, causing it to retract into the annular groove. The stretched part of the elastic plate can smoothly displace in the annular groove. When the locking block is displaced to other locking grooves, the locking block is not compressed by the inner wall of the annular groove, and the locking block naturally extends and embeds into the locking groove to achieve the purpose of shrinking the inner diameter of the restraint ring, and this shrinkage state will not retract on its own. To expand the inner diameter, medical staff apply force with their fingers to press the locking block to retract it into the annular groove, releasing the locking state of the locking block and the locking groove. Due to the contractile property of the elastic plate itself, the locking block is driven to move to other locking grooves. By operating in sequence, the inner diameter of the restraint ring can be gradually expanded.

[0043] During patient treatment, if a patient needs to call for help, experiences stress, discomfort, epilepsy, or a worsening of certain conditions, they can automatically clench their fist by pressing a trigger button. This sends a message to the medical staff's terminal device, allowing them to promptly check and address the issue. Furthermore, during treatment, temperature sensors continuously monitor the temperature of the palm, back of the hand, and wrist. If any abnormality is detected (e.g., temperature below normal body temperature), the message is transmitted wirelessly to the terminal device. In cases where the patient might forcibly remove restraint gloves or experience hypothermia, medical staff must respond promptly.

[0044] The above description is a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. For those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
