Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary equipment technology, specifically to a support device for fixing the body shape of a patient. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of medical care, especially for patients who need to rest in a lateral decubitus position or receive treatment, such as postoperative patients with congenital heart disease in the intensive care unit, a stable and adaptable support device is crucial. These patients often require strict positional management to promote recovery and prevent complications, especially those with pulmonary infections, who need to ensure positional stability during postural drainage to effectively expel sputum. However, existing lateral decubitus support devices have revealed some key problems in practical applications.
[0003] Traditional side-lying support pillows are often simply designed and lack sufficient adjustability and adaptability. Because patients vary in height and body shape, traditional fixed-length support pillows often fail to meet the needs of different patients. This can lead to discomfort or pain due to insufficient support during use, and may even affect the effectiveness of treatment. Especially when turning over or moving, traditional support pillows are prone to shifting or tilting, failing to provide continuous and stable support for the patient.
[0004] Furthermore, traditional support pillows are not user-friendly in terms of material selection and structural design. For example, they lack consideration for patient comfort, which may lead to pressure sores and other problems with prolonged use. At the same time, for patients who require special post-operative care, such as those who need to avoid lying flat after congenital heart disease surgery to reduce the burden on their heart, traditional support pillows often cannot provide sufficient back and chest support, affecting the treatment outcome.
[0005] To address these issues, some improved lateral decubitus support devices have emerged on the market, such as adjustable-length support pillows and support systems with anchoring straps. While these devices offer some improvement in adaptability and stability, they still have shortcomings. For example, the adjustment process can be cumbersome, the fixation effect may be poor, or the comfort level may be insufficient. Especially for patients who need to rest in a lateral decubitus position for extended periods, the stability and comfort of existing devices still need improvement. Utility Model Content
[0006] To address the aforementioned issues, this utility model provides a support device for fixing the patient's body shape. The advantage of this device is that it has better positioning accuracy and will not tilt during use, allowing for long-term positioning of the patient's body shape.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a support device for fixing the body shape of a patient, comprising a base plate, a positioning part and a support part provided on the base plate, a support component provided on the support part, a binding strap connected to the support component provided on the positioning part, the support component including a baffle plate arranged perpendicular to the base plate, a cushion provided on one side of the baffle plate, and a support rod abutting against the base plate on the other side.
[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution:
[0009] The lower part of the baffle is hinged to the base plate, and the upper part is provided with positioning holes for fixing the binding straps.
[0010] The number of binding straps is multiple and they are evenly distributed along the length of the positioning part, and the lower surface of the positioning part is provided with a storage groove.
[0011] The cushion and the baffle are detachably connected, and the inner side wall of the baffle is provided with a slot for installing the cushion.
[0012] The cushion includes a positioning frame that works with the slot, and a cushioning pad is provided on the inner side of the positioning frame.
[0013] The bottom of the card slot is provided with a through groove corresponding to the position of the buffer pad.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model embodiment are as follows: The support device for patient body fixation includes a base plate, which is hinged to a positioning part and a support part. It can be opened when in use and merged into a rectangular box when not in use, making it easy to store. A support component is installed on the support part, and the positioning part is placed under the patient. A binding strap connected to the support component is installed at the end of the positioning part for fixing the body of an unconscious critically ill patient. The support component includes a baffle for supporting the patient's waist and back. A cushion that contacts the patient is provided on one side of the baffle. When in use, the patient lies on the positioning part and uses the patient's own weight to fix the entire support device. Compared with the existing pillow-type support method, it has a better positioning effect and can avoid the problem of tilting during use. At the same time, the binding strap design can fix the body of an unconscious patient and the support effect is more stable. Attached Figure Description

[0020] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] See Figure 1 This utility model discloses a support device for fixing the body shape of a patient, including a base plate 1. The base plate 1 includes a positioning part 2 and a support part 3 hinged together. When in use, it is opened, and when not in use, the two are combined to form a rectangular box for easy storage. A support component is installed on the support part 3. The positioning part 2 is used under the patient. A binding strap 4 connected to the support component is installed at the end of the positioning part 2 for fixing the body shape of an unconscious critically ill patient. The support component includes a baffle 5 for supporting the patient's waist and back. One side of the baffle 5 is provided with a cushion 6 that contacts the patient, and the other side is connected to the base plate 1 by a support rod 13 to maintain the perpendicular relationship between the baffle 5 and the base plate 1, thus supporting the body shape when the patient is lying on their side.
[0022] By setting a positioning part 2 and a support part 3 on the base plate 1, when in use, the patient lies on the positioning part 2 and uses the patient's own weight to fix the entire support device. Compared with the existing pillow-type support method, it has a better positioning effect and can avoid the problem of tilting during use. At the same time, the design of the binding strap 4 can fix the body shape of the unconscious patient and the support effect is more stable.
[0023] The binding straps 4 are multiple and evenly distributed along the length of the positioning part 2. The lower part of each binding strap 4 is hinged to the end of the positioning part 2, and the upper part is connected to the baffle 5. A storage groove 8 for placing the binding straps 4 is provided on the lower surface of the positioning part 2. The upper part of the baffle 5 is provided with a positioning hole 7 for fixing the binding straps 4. The lower part of the baffle 5 is hinged to the base plate 1, which facilitates storage and saves space.
[0024] like Figure 2 As shown, the baffle 5 has a slot 9 in the middle for installing the cushion 6. The cushion 6 is detachably connected to the baffle 5, which makes it easy to replace different types of cushions 6 according to the season and temperature after disassembly.
[0025] like Figure 3 As shown, the cushion 6 includes a positioning frame 10 that is slidably connected to the slot 9. A cushioning pad 11 is installed on the inner side of the positioning frame 10 to improve patient comfort when providing support. Figure 4 As shown, a through groove 12 is provided at the bottom of the card slot 9, which penetrates the baffle 5. The function of the through groove 12 is to expose the patient's back by removing the backrest 6 during daily use, so as to facilitate cleaning, care or massage and relief, and to avoid the patient's discomfort caused by prolonged single posture.
