Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the medical field, specifically to a positioning pad for gastrointestinal endoscopy. Background Technology
[0002] Gastroscopy and colonoscopy are core diagnostic tools for digestive tract diseases. During the examination, patients need to maintain a specific position for an extended period of time to ensure a clear endoscopic view.
[0003] However, the difficulty in maintaining the patient's position currently leads to low examination efficiency: traditional examination beds mostly use ordinary soft cushions or disposable non-woven sheets for support, lacking effective fixation of the patient's trunk and limbs. During the examination, patients are prone to positional shifts due to fear or physiological reactions (such as vomiting or coughing), causing endoscope slippage or blurred vision, forcing doctors to repeatedly adjust the patient's posture.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an innovative solution that can maintain the patient's position for a long time, reduce the risk of complications, and improve the efficiency and experience of both doctors and patients. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a positioning pad for gastrointestinal endoscopy, which can effectively and stably restrict the patient's current position during the examination, preventing interference from body shaking or other activities, improving the efficiency of the examination, shortening the patient's pain time, and being flexibly applicable to patients of different body types and for collecting waste during the examination.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A positioning pad for gastrointestinal endoscopy includes a main pad body, a head and neck pad, a trunk pad, and a lower limb pad. The main pad body is connected to an existing examination bed via a snap-fit assembly. The head and neck pad, chest and abdomen pad, and lower limb pad are all movably positioned above the main pad body, and the chest and abdomen pad and lower limb pad change their angle with the main pad body via a locking structure. The trunk pad and lower limb pad form a limiting group, and there are two limiting groups, which are arranged opposite to each other on the main pad body. The pad also includes an adjustment assembly for controlling the distance between the two limiting groups.
[0008] Compared with existing technologies, the positioning pad for gastrointestinal endoscopy using the above-mentioned technical solution has the following beneficial effects:
[0009] The gastrointestinal endoscopy positioning pad of this invention utilizes snap-fit components to achieve assembly and use with existing examination beds, eliminating the need for customized examination beds and offering high flexibility and versatility. The head and neck pads provide support for the patient's head, while the chest, abdomen, and lower limb pads restrict the patient's body while aligning them in the required position for the examination. This eliminates the need for additional reminders or corrections from the examiner and for patient interaction. With the patient's position fixed, the examination time is effectively shortened, improving efficiency, reducing patient discomfort, and enhancing the interaction experience for both doctors and patients. Furthermore, the locking structure and adjustable components can alter the fit of the positioning pad, increasing support and adapting it to patients of different body types, further enhancing the flexibility of the design.
[0010] Preferably, the snap-fit assembly includes a docking seat, a locking piece, a locking screw, and a gripping button. The docking seat is connected to the edge of the main pad, and the docking seat and the main pad together form a clamping state for the examination bed. The locking screw is threadedly connected to the docking seat. The locking piece and the gripping button are respectively located at the upper and lower ends of the locking screw. The gripping button facilitates control of the locking piece to be close to or away from the edge of the examination bed. In the clamping state, it can achieve further reinforcement or unlocking separation without the need for additional tools. This increases the stability of the above functions and the fixation of the patient's position during the examination, ensuring the smooth conduct of the examination.
[0011] Preferably, the locking structure includes a movable seat, a movable plate, a rotating shaft, a support plate, a locking block, and multiple locking slots. The movable seat is mounted on the main pad, and the movable plate is connected to the movable seat via the rotating shaft. The number of locking structures is adaptively set according to the chest and abdomen pads and the lower limb pads. Both the chest and abdomen pads and the lower limb pads are connected to one side of the movable plate, and the support plate is rotatably connected to the other side of the movable plate. The locking block is located at the end of the support plate away from the movable plate, and multiple locking slots are evenly distributed on the movable seat. When the movable plate and the movable seat are at different angles, the locking block is embedded in different locking slots. The movable plate, support plate, and movable seat form a triangular stable support structure, and the chest and abdomen pads and lower limb pads located inside the movable plate will appropriately buffer the force of the patient, thereby providing a strong support effect for body position fixation.
[0012] Preferably, the locking block is a triangular rigid structure, and the sidewall of the locking groove is provided with an elastic compression member. Utilizing the elastic compression member's own expansion and contraction characteristics, it facilitates the entry and exit of the support plate end and the locking block into and out of the locking groove. That is, in the locked state, the elastic compression member increases the fixing effect, and in the unlocking process, it provides space for the locking block to exit.
[0013] Preferably, the adjustment assembly includes a compression plate, a rotating rod, and a knob. The rotating rod is threadedly connected to the main pad body, and the knob is located at the outer end of the rotating rod. The compression plate is rotatably located at the end of the rotating rod corresponding to the interior of the main pad body, and an anti-dislodgement block is provided between the compression plate and the rotating rod. The compression plate is connected to the movable seat, and the main pad body has a movable groove inside for the movable seat to move. Because the compression plate is structurally independent from the end of the rotating rod, when the knob drives the rotating rod to rotate and move, the compression plate will be subjected to force to achieve a pushing effect on the movable seat. Furthermore, due to the connection between the compression plate and the movable seat, and the indirect connection between the compression plate and the rotating rod by the anti-dislodgement block, when the rotating rod is rotated in the opposite direction, the movable seat can be moved in the opposite direction, that is, gradually away from the patient, to release the fixed position or to be suitable for larger patients.
[0014] Preferably, the position between the torso pad and the lower limb pad on the main pad is a positioning prompting area, and the positioning prompting area is provided with an outline. The outline can indicate the position required for the examination to the patient, eliminating the need for repeated reminders or corrections by the examiner, thereby further effectively shortening the time spent on the examination. Moreover, the clear prompts allow the patient to lie in the accurate positioning examination position (i.e., the positioning prompting area), facilitating the use of the locking structure and adjustment components by the examiner.
[0015] Preferably, both the torso pad and the lower limb pad are equipped with straps, the ends of which are provided with buckles, and the torso pad and lower limb pad are provided with insertion slots that correspond to the buckles. For patients who are fearful or uncooperative, the straps are used to restrict the patient's position from above, and together with the torso pad, lower limb pad, and the main pad below, the patient can be immobilized in all directions.
[0016] Preferably, both the trunk pad and the lower limb pad are detachably connected to the movable plate via Velcro. To accommodate patients in different positions and body types, various shapes of trunk pads and lower limb pads are available, allowing for flexible disassembly and assembly, and enabling individual disinfection or cleaning maintenance.
[0017] Preferably, it also includes a collection seat. Both the head and neck pad and the collection seat are connected to the main pad body via Velcro. The collection seat can be attached to the side wall of the head and neck pad. The collection seat has a collection cavity in the middle. The head and neck pad is provided with a guide channel. The guide channel gradually narrows from the middle of the head and neck pad towards the collection seat to form a drain outlet. The drain outlet extends towards the collection cavity to form an extension tube. The end of the extension tube is located on the collection cavity. By utilizing the guide channel, the specially structured drain outlet for convergence, and the guiding effect of the drainage plate, saliva or body fluids during the examination are collected uniformly. Combined with the draping during normal examination, it effectively avoids infection or contamination of the outside world by dirt or dirty liquid.
[0018] Preferably, the head and neck pad, torso pad, and lower limb pad are lined with high-density memory foam, and their surfaces are coated with an antibacterial coating. The head and neck pad, torso pad, and lower limb pad provide effective support and can be reused after individual disinfection. They also appropriately cushion the force exerted by the patient on the locking structure and adjustment components. The antibacterial coating reduces the risk of infection in the examination room, improving the protection of patients and examination personnel. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] like Figures 1 to 5 The positioning pads shown for gastrointestinal endoscopy include a main pad 1, a head and neck pad 10, a trunk pad 2, and a lower limb pad 3.
[0027] The main pad 1 is connected to the existing examination bed 0 via the snap-fit assembly 4. The head and neck pad 10, chest and abdomen pad and lower limb pad 3 are all movably positioned above the main pad 1, and the chest and abdomen pad and lower limb pad 3 can change their angle with the main pad 1 via the locking structure 5.
[0028] The snap-fit assembly 4 includes a mating seat 40, a locking piece 41, a locking screw 42, and a gripping button 43. The mating seat 40 is connected to the edge of the main pad 1, and the mating seat 40 and the main pad 1 together form a clamping state for the examination bed 0. The locking screw 42 is threadedly connected to the mating seat 40. The locking piece 41 and the gripping button 43 are respectively located at the upper and lower ends of the locking screw 42. To facilitate disassembly and assembly, the connection between the mating seat 40 and the main pad 1 is elastically designed, meaning that the mating seat 40 can be appropriately rotated along the connection.
[0029] The locking structure 5 includes a movable seat 50, a movable plate 51, a rotating shaft 52, a support plate 53, a locking block 54, and multiple locking grooves 55. The movable seat 50 is located on the main pad 1. The movable plate 51 is connected to the movable seat 50 via the rotating shaft 52. The number of locking structures 5 is adaptively set to correspond to the chest and abdomen pads and the lower limb pads 3. The chest and abdomen pads and the lower limb pads 3 are both connected to one side of the movable plate 51. The support plate 53 is rotatably connected to the other side of the movable plate 51. The locking block 54 is located at the end of the support plate 53 away from the movable plate 51. Multiple locking grooves 55 are evenly spaced on the movable seat 50. When the movable plate 51 and the movable seat 50 are at different angles, the locking block 54 is embedded in different locking grooves 55.
[0030] To increase structural strength and to facilitate the removal of the end of the support plate 53 from the locking groove 55, the locking block 54 is a triangular rigid structure, and the side wall of the locking groove 55 is provided with an elastic extrusion member 56.
[0031] To accommodate patients in different positions and with different body types, there are various shapes of trunk pads 2 and lower limb pads 3, and both trunk pads 2 and lower limb pads 3 can be detachably connected to the movable plate 51 via Velcro.
[0032] The torso pad 2 and the lower limb pad 3 form a limiting group. There are two limiting groups, and the two limiting groups are arranged facing each other on the main pad body 1. It also includes an adjustment component 6 for controlling the distance between the two limiting groups.
[0033] The adjustment assembly 6 includes a pressing plate 60, a rotating rod 61, and a knob 62. The rotating rod 61 is threadedly connected to the main pad 1. The knob 62 is located at the outer end of the rotating rod 61. The pressing plate 60 is rotatably located at the end of the rotating rod 61 corresponding to the inside of the main pad 1. An anti-detachment block 63 is provided between the pressing plate 60 and the rotating rod 61. The pressing plate 60 is connected to the movable seat 50. The main pad 1 has a movable groove 64 inside which the movable seat 50 can be displaced.
[0034] In addition, to indicate the patient's bed position, the position between the main pad 1 and the trunk pad 2 and the lower limb pad 3 is a position indication area, and the position indication area is provided with an outline 11.
[0035] Furthermore, to enhance the restraint effect on the patient, both the torso pad 2 and the lower limb pad 3 are equipped with straps 7, the ends of which are provided with buckles. The torso pad 2 and the lower limb pad 3 are provided with insertion slots adapted to the buckles. The specific structure of the buckle and insertion slot is similar to that of existing backpack buckles and tool bag buckles, and therefore will not be described in detail in the figures of this embodiment.
[0036] It also includes a collection seat 8. The head and neck pad 10 and the collection seat 8 are both connected to the main pad body 1 by Velcro. The collection seat 8 can be attached to the side wall of the head and neck pad 10. The middle part of the collection seat 8 is a collection cavity 80. The head and neck pad 10 is provided with a guide groove 81. The guide groove 81 gradually shrinks inward from the middle of the head and neck pad 10 toward the collection seat 8 to form a drain port 82. The drain port 82 extends toward the collection cavity 80 to form an extension tube. The end of the extension tube is located on the collection cavity 80.
[0037] In addition, to enhance the fixation effect, the head and neck pad 10, the torso pad 2 and the lower limb pad 3 are filled with high-density memory foam, and the surfaces of the head and neck pad 10, the torso pad 2 and the lower limb pad 3 are coated with an antibacterial coating.
[0038] During use, the docking seat 40 is first rotated appropriately along the connection point, so that the edge of the inspection bed 0 is clamped between the main pad 1 and the docking seat 40. The locking screw 42 is then rotated via the grip button 43, and the locking piece 41 increases the clamping and fixing effect, forming a... Figure 3 The state shown indicates that the main pad 1 and the inspection bed 0 are assembled.
[0039] Next, have the patient lie on their side in the positioning prompt area, and pre-position the patient according to the outline 11. Then, select the appropriate size trunk pad 2 and lower limb pad 3 according to the patient's body type, and attach the trunk pad 2 and lower limb pad 3 to the surface of the corresponding movable board 51.
[0040] Rotating knob 62 drives the rotating rod 61 to rotate synchronously. Since the compression plate 60 and the end of the rotating rod 61 are relatively independent and rotatably connected, the rotating rod 61 actively pushes the compression plate 60, causing the movable seat 50 to shift towards the patient (i.e., the middle of the examination bed 0), so that the trunk pad 2 and lower limb pad 3 are tightly fitted against the patient's body for limiting and fixing. If further limiting is needed, the examiner flips the movable plate 51 to adjust the angle between the trunk pad 2 and the main pad 1, and the angle between the lower limb pad 3 and the main pad 1, and inserts the end of the support plate 53 into the supportable locking groove 55. During the insertion or removal of the support plate 53 from the locking groove 55, the elastic compression member 56 contracts under force, creating operating space for the support plate 53 and the locking block 54, forming a shape after insertion. Figure 4 and Figure 5 The locked state is shown.
[0041] If a gastroscopy is performed, a disposable medical drape is placed on the head and neck pad 10. During the examination, some saliva or bodily fluids may leak from the patient's mouth. Figure 2 As shown, the waste liquid is transferred to the collection chamber 80 on the side of the head and neck pad 10 through the gradual guiding action of the guide channel 81, the drain port 82 and the guide plate 83.
[0042] 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.
