Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of patient gown technology, specifically a patient gown for a midline catheter. Background Technology
[0002] The design of patient gowns facilitates medical staff in performing treatment procedures. Wearing patient gowns can prevent patients' own clothes from getting dirty, especially when performing various treatments, examinations or surgeries. At the same time, the loose and easy-to-wear characteristics of patient gowns also make it easier for medical staff to quickly perform necessary medical procedures.
[0003] Current standard clinical patient gowns are typically fixed long-sleeved cardigans, which are inconvenient for patients with midline catheters to insert catheters, receive daily infusions, and undergo post-operative maintenance. In practice, patients need to completely remove one or all of their patient gowns to expose more areas in order to achieve the purpose of assessment, catheter insertion, use, and maintenance. Patients with limited mobility require more assistance, which not only increases the chance of patients' privacy being exposed, but also poses risks of injury, exposure to cold, and aggravation of pain. It also increases the preparation work before the operation, thereby reducing the patient's medical experience and satisfaction, and reducing the efficiency of nurses.
[0004] To address the aforementioned deficiencies, a patient gown for indwelling infusion ports, disclosed in CN208434767U, separates the baffle from the surface of the indwelling port and attaches the first connecting band to the second connecting band along the transverse groove. In this way, infusion can be performed directly through the indwelling port, thus solving the problem that patients previously had to remove their medical gowns during infusion, causing physical and psychological discomfort.
[0005] In actual use of the above-mentioned patient gowns, although the indwelling port improves the protection of patient privacy, the location of the indwelling port is relatively fixed, and some patients need to be infused in different locations, which leads to poor adaptability.
[0006] Therefore, we proposed a special patient gown for midline catheters that can effectively solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a patient gown specifically for midline catheters, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the position of the indwelling port in the current market is relatively fixed, while the position required for infusion by some patients is also different, which leads to poor adaptability.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a patient gown for midline catheterization, comprising a gown body, which is worn on the patient's body;
[0009] The outer side of the patient gown is sewn with a first Velcro closure, and a second Velcro closure is adhered to the outer wall of the first Velcro closure. The outer wall of the second Velcro closure is sewn to the first cuff, and the first cuff is attached to the patient gown body.
[0010] Preferably, the first cuff and the second cuff have the same structure, and the second cuff contains insulating material.
[0011] Preferably, the second hook and loop fastener is a hook side, and the first hook and loop fastener that the first hook and loop fastener is attached to is a rough side.
[0012] Preferably, a fourth Velcro closure is sewn onto the right side of the patient gown body, and a third Velcro closure is adhered to the fourth Velcro closure.

[0030] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0031] Example 1: This utility model solves the problem that the position of the existing indwelling port is relatively fixed, while the infusion position required by some patients is different, which leads to poor adaptability. By assembling and disassembling the first cuff 2, the adaptability of infusion can be improved. The following is disclosed:
[0032] The patient gown body 1 is worn on the patient's body; the outer side of the patient gown body 1 is sewn with a first hook and loop fastener 3, and the outer wall of the first hook and loop fastener 3 is glued with a second hook and loop fastener 4, and the outer wall of the second hook and loop fastener 4 is sewn to the first cuff 2, the first cuff 2 is attached to the patient gown body 1, the second hook and loop fastener 4 is hook side, and the first hook and loop fastener 3 glued to the first hook and loop fastener 3 is loop side.
[0033] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 When a patient is receiving intravenous infusion at the elbow crease after wearing the patient gown body 1, the first cuff 2 can be removed as needed. By pulling the first cuff 2, the second Velcro 4 can be moved, causing the second Velcro 4 to separate from the first Velcro 3. This facilitates the infusion tube 13 to be administered at the elbow crease, and only requires the arm to be exposed, thus protecting the patient's privacy and preventing resistance. Furthermore, the detachable function of the first cuff 2 allows for infusion at different locations, thereby improving the adaptability of the infusion.
[0034] Example 2: This utility model solves the problem of poor patient comfort in cold weather by using the existing cuff 201. The use of the second cuff 201 improves the patient's adaptability to cold weather. The following is disclosed:
[0035] The first cuff 2 and the second cuff 201 have the same structure, and the second cuff 201 contains thermal insulation material. The second cuff 201 is sewn with a second Velcro 4, and the second Velcro 4 is the same as the second Velcro 4 on the first cuff 2.
[0036] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In cold weather, by separating the first cuff 2 from the main body of the gown 1 and replacing it with the second cuff 201, the second cuff 201 can be fixed by the adsorption between the second Velcro 4 and the first Velcro 3, so that the second cuff 201 can be easily installed on the main body of the gown 1. The second cuff 201 can keep warm, thus improving the patient's comfort.
[0037] Example 3: This utility model solves the problem that the existing infusion tube 6 is prone to shaking on the patient gown body 1, resulting in unstable infusion. The use of the alarm 5 can improve the stability of the infusion. The following is disclosed:
[0038] The right side of the patient gown body 1 is sewn with a fourth Velcro 8, and a third Velcro 7 is glued to the fourth Velcro 8. The front end of the third Velcro 7 is fixed to the alarm 5, and the alarm 5 is located on the right side of the patient gown body 1. The internal slot of the alarm 5 is connected to the infusion tube 6, and the top of the infusion tube 6 is connected to the medicine bottle. The bottom of the infusion tube 6 extends into the interior of the patient gown body 1 to form an infusion mechanism.
[0039] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 7 The infusion tube 6 is inserted into the alarm 5, allowing the alarm 5 to detect the infusion tube 6. The alarm 5 then sounds after the infusion is completed, facilitating the nurse's operation and reducing the need for family supervision. The alarm 5 also secures the infusion tube 6, preventing it from swinging freely within the gown body 1, thus improving infusion stability. After the infusion is complete, pulling the alarm 5 causes the third Velcro 7 to detach from the fourth Velcro 8, allowing for easy installation and removal of the alarm 5 (alarm 5 is a mature existing technology and therefore not described in detail in this text).
[0040] Working principle: When using this type of patient gown specifically designed for midline catheters, firstly, refer to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 When a patient is receiving intravenous infusion at the elbow crease after wearing the patient gown body 1, the first cuff 2 can be removed as needed. By pulling the first cuff 2, the first cuff 2 can move the second Velcro 4, which will separate the second Velcro 4 from the first Velcro 3. This allows the patient's privacy to be protected by only exposing the arm. Furthermore, the detachable function of the first cuff 2 allows for intravenous infusion at different locations, thus improving the adaptability of intravenous infusion.
[0041] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In cold weather, by separating the first cuff 2 from the patient gown body 1 and replacing the second cuff 201, the second cuff 201 can be fixed by the adsorption between the second Velcro 4 and the first Velcro 3, thereby providing warmth and improving the patient's comfort.
[0042] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 7The infusion tube 6 is inserted into the alarm 5, which then allows the alarm 5 to detect the infusion tube 6. After the infusion is completed, the alarm 5 will sound an alarm, thus avoiding the need for family members to supervise. The alarm 5 can also fix the infusion tube 6 in place. After the infusion is completed, pulling the alarm 5 will cause the third Velcro 7 to detach from the fourth Velcro 8, making the alarm 5 easy to install and remove.
