Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary product technology, specifically to a cloud-shaped thermal blanket for the anesthesia recovery period. Background Technology

[0002] In modern surgical procedures, the nursing care during the anesthesia recovery period is crucial. Anesthetic drugs suppress the body's normal thermoregulation mechanism, causing fluctuations in body temperature, especially a decrease in core body temperature. This not only causes significant discomfort and prolongs recovery time but can also lead to a series of serious complications such as coagulation dysfunction, increased risk of postoperative infection, increased burden on the cardiovascular system, and suppressed immune system function, greatly affecting the quality of postoperative recovery and overall health.

[0003] Traditionally, rectangular thermal blankets used for postoperative warming are mostly full-body blankets. While they have some warming effect, they have many limitations.

[0004] (1) Poor fit: During the recovery period from anesthesia, the patient's thermoregulation function is suppressed, especially the upper body (including the neck, chest and shoulders), which is the most prone to hypothermia. The rectangular shape makes it difficult to fit closely to the special contour areas of the human body such as the shoulders and neck. Large gaps will always remain in these key areas, and heat will continue to dissipate, making it difficult to achieve the ideal heat preservation effect.

[0005] (2) The coverage area is too large, which affects local care and is inconvenient to operate: During the anesthesia recovery period, patients need frequent monitoring and care. The long and wide size of the whole body rectangular warming blanket is quite cumbersome in the limited space of the operating room. It is very inconvenient to lay and store. It is easy to get tangled and pulled with the complex and numerous medical monitoring equipment pipelines, infusion and drainage pipelines around it. This not only interferes with the medical staff's real-time accurate reading of equipment parameters and close inspection of pipeline patency, but may also accidentally pull on the various tubes and lines on the patient when the blanket is moved unintentionally, causing additional pain to the patient or even serious consequences that endanger life.

[0006] (3) Uneven heating: The internal filling material of the whole-body rectangular heat insulation blanket is relatively uniform. When the external heat source or the heating element is activated, the heat conduction process is chaotic. Hot air tends to accumulate at the corners and edges of the rectangular structure, resulting in uneven heating of the patient's body surface. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model aims to provide a cloud-shaped warming blanket for the anesthesia recovery period. It features a high degree of fit and efficient airflow circulation within the warming cavity, effectively solving the previous problem of uneven warming, improving patient comfort and safety, and facilitating operation and management by medical staff.

[0008] The main idea of ​​the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: by designing the shape of the heat insulation blanket into a cloud shoulder shape, it wraps around the patient's neck, shoulders and chest and other key parts of the upper body, effectively reducing heat loss. The heat insulation cavity formed by the upper and lower panels serves as the core space for heat storage and circulation. The heat insulation cavity is divided into multiple annular airflow channels to maximize heat flow and insulation. By using Velcro hook side and loop side, medical staff can quickly put on or adjust the position of the heat insulation blanket for the patient, ensuring that the blanket fits tightly and the operation is simple and convenient.

[0009] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0010] A cloud-shaped warming blanket for anesthesia recovery includes a blanket body in the shape of a cloud shoulder, comprising an upper surface and a lower surface, with a warming cavity formed between the upper and lower surfaces, an air inlet provided on the upper surface, and a plurality of air dissipation micropores provided on the lower surface.

[0011] The insulation cavity is provided with several annular baffles to divide the interior of the insulation cavity into multiple annular airflow channels, and the annular baffles are provided with multiple openings.

[0012] Furthermore, the inflation port is located at the middle of the outer edge of the upper surface, and a strap is provided at the inflation port.

[0013] Furthermore, the upper edge of one side of the upper sheet is provided with a hook and loop fastener, and the lower edge of the other side of the lower sheet is provided with a loop and loop fastener.

[0014] Furthermore, through the above technical solution, the edges of the upper sheet and the lower sheet are stitched together to form a heat-insulating cavity.

[0015] Furthermore, through the above technical solution: the upper layer of the upper sheet is a non-woven fabric layer, the lower layer of the lower sheet is a cotton fabric layer, and both the lower layer of the upper sheet and the upper layer of the lower sheet are plastic film layers.

[0016] Furthermore, through the above technical solution, each of the annular partition bars connects the lower layer of the upper sheet to the upper layer of the lower sheet.

[0017] Furthermore, through the above technical solution, the heat-insulating blanket is suitable for covering the upper body of the patient, and a notch suitable for placing the patient's neck is provided at the upper end of the heat-insulating blanket.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0019] 1. By setting up a cloud-shaped warming blanket and convenient Velcro closure, it can be adjusted as needed to ensure that it fits the patient's body closely. The blanket is fixed and does not shift, which makes it convenient to check the wound and tubes at any time during and after the operation without repeated adjustments, providing the best warming effect.

[0020] 2. By setting up annular baffles and opening gradient-distributed small holes, the interior of the heat preservation cavity is divided into multiple annular airflow channels, ensuring that the gas flows evenly within the heat preservation blanket and avoiding localized overheating or insufficient heat preservation. At the same time, the air dissipation micropores opened on the lower surface allow the hot air inside the heat preservation cavity to directly contact the patient's skin surface, forming a warm air layer and providing a more direct and effective heat preservation effect.

[0021] 3. The upper and lower surfaces of the thermal blanket adopt a multi-layer composite structure of non-woven fabric, plastic film and cotton cloth, which not only ensures breathability, but also provides good heat preservation effect, ensures that the patient's skin is dry, reduces the risk of infection, and enhances the overall strength and durability of the thermal blanket.

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0029] The inventors discovered that traditional postoperative warming blankets are mostly full-body rectangular warming blankets. Although they have a certain warming effect, they have poor fit, cover too large an area, affect local care, are inconvenient to operate, and have uneven heating.

[0030] Based on the above findings, this application proposes a cloud-shoulder-shaped warming blanket for the anesthesia recovery period. By designing the blanket in the shape of a cloud shoulder, it wraps around the patient's neck, shoulders, chest, and other key areas, effectively reducing heat loss. The warming cavity formed by the upper and lower sections serves as the core space for heat storage and circulation. The warming cavity is equipped with annular baffles and gradient-distributed small holes to maximize heat flow and insulation. By using Velcro hooks and loops, medical staff can quickly put on or adjust the position of the warming blanket for the patient, ensuring a tight fit and simple and convenient operation.

[0031] Example 1

[0032] See Figures 1-5 This application discloses a cloud-shoulder-shaped warming blanket for anesthesia recovery, comprising a blanket body. The blanket body is cloud-shoulder shaped and consists of an upper surface 1 and a lower surface 2. The edges of the upper surface 1 and the lower surface 2 are sewn together to form a warming cavity for containing heat source gas and providing a warming effect. An air inlet 3 is provided in the middle of the outer edge of the upper surface 1 for filling the warming cavity with hot air through a hot air device. A strap 6 is provided at the air inlet 3 for fixing the hot air device. Preferably, the temperature of the filled hot air is between 37°C and 42°C. The lower surface 2 has several ventilation micro-holes 13 for providing the hot air in the warming cavity to the patient.

[0033] The insulation cavity is equipped with several annular baffles 4. Each annular baffle 4 is connected to the lower layer 8 and the upper layer 9 of the upper sheet via a hot-pressing process, ensuring the baffles' firmness and improving the insulation blanket's sealing and durability. The annular baffles 4 divide the insulation cavity into multiple annular airflow channels. Multiple openings 5 ​​are provided on each annular baffle 4, with the number of openings 5 ​​varying in a gradient, gradually increasing towards the neck. By adjusting the airflow speed and direction, warm gas can flow evenly within the insulation blanket, preventing localized overheating or insufficient insulation. This ensures that the airflow is evenly distributed throughout the insulation blanket, thereby ensuring that the patient receives a suitable temperature in different areas.

[0034] The upper edge of one side of the upper sheet 1 is provided with a hook and loop fastener 11, and the lower edge of the other side of the lower sheet 2 is provided with a hook and loop fastener 12. Preferably, the width of the hook and loop fastener can be appropriately increased to adjust the tightness of the heat preservation blanket according to the body shape of different patients, so as to ensure comfort and heat preservation effect. Through the adhesion of the hook and loop fastener, medical staff can quickly and conveniently wrap and fix the heat preservation blanket on the patient.

[0035] Both the upper sheet 1 and the lower sheet 2 have a two-layer structure. The upper layer 7 of the upper sheet is the outermost layer of the insulation blanket and is a non-woven fabric layer, used to protect the internal structure of the insulation blanket, achieve breathability and moisture control, and isolate dust and impurities. The lower layer 10 of the lower sheet is the cotton fabric layer of the insulation blanket that comes into contact with the human body, used to ensure skin-friendly comfort, conform to the body's curves, and reduce heat loss. The lower layer 8 of the upper sheet and the upper layer 9 of the lower sheet are both plastic film layers, used for moisture protection and stabilizing the temperature environment inside the insulation cavity, enhancing insulation performance. The insulation blanket is suitable for covering the upper body of the patient, and a notch is provided at the upper end of the medical insulation blanket to place the patient's neck, ensuring comfort and insulation effect in the neck area.

[0036] When using, align the notched upper end with the patient's neck. Press the hook side 11 of the upper sheet 1 against the loop side 12 of the lower sheet 2 to ensure the blanket is tightly wrapped around the patient. Connect the inflation device (such as a portable air pump) to the appropriate air tube. Secure the other end of the air tube to the inflation port 3 at the center of the outer edge of the upper sheet 1 of the blanket, and tighten the strap 6 at the inflation port 3 to prevent the air tube from falling off during inflation. Set the appropriate temperature and turn on the inflation device. After the gas enters the insulation chamber, it is evenly distributed throughout the chamber along the annular baffle 4 and small holes. As the airflow continues, the warm gas is slowly released through the micro-pores 13 on the lower sheet 2 to the patient, maintaining a stable body temperature. Once the patient's body temperature has stabilized or they are ready to remove the blanket, turn off the inflation device, loosen the strap 6, remove the air tube, unfasten the hook and loop fasteners, remove the blanket, and store it away for subsequent disinfection, maintenance, and reuse.

Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention.
