Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical devices, specifically a bandage device for the adjunctive treatment of lymphedema. Background Technology

[0002] Lymphedema has long been a common complication after breast cancer surgery. In the past, due to the lack of dedicated outpatient clinics and departments, patients were unable to receive effective treatment. With advancements in medicine, the survival rate of breast cancer patients has continuously improved, and the control of complications and chronic disease management have been incorporated into comprehensive management. Lymphedema is a fluid accumulation disorder caused by lymphatic system dysfunction, commonly affecting the limbs, causing significant pain and inconvenience to patients. Currently, treatment methods for lymphedema include surgery, medication, and physical therapy, among which bandage wrapping is a common and effective treatment method. However, existing bandages have some problems in use, such as poor breathability and low comfort, affecting treatment effectiveness and patient experience. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The main purpose of this invention is to solve the problems existing in the prior art and provide a bandage device for the adjunctive treatment of lymphedema.

[0004] The specific solution of this utility model is: a bandage device for adjuvant treatment of lymphedema, comprising a bandage, wherein the bandage comprises, from the inside out, a base layer, a pressure layer, and a breathable layer. The base layer is made of a highly elastic material, having good elasticity and extensibility. The pressure layer is composed of multiple layers of elastic bandages, used to apply a certain pressure to the limb. The breathable layer is made of a breathable material, used to expel sweat and moisture from the patient's skin surface, keeping the inside of the bandage dry. Between the base layer and the pressure layer, there are several elastic bodies, the thickness of which is greater than the thickness of the bandage, causing the elastic bodies to protrude from the bandage surface on both the inner and outer sides.

[0005] Furthermore, a comfort layer is provided on the side of the base layer that comes into contact with the skin. The comfort layer is made of a flexible, skin-friendly material and is used to reduce friction and irritation of the bandage to the patient's skin.

[0006] Furthermore, the shape of the elastomer is blocky, cylindrical, or spherical.

[0007] Furthermore, the elastomer is a sponge block.

[0008] Furthermore, the base layer and the pressure layer, as well as the pressure layer and the breathable layer, are bonded and fixed together.

[0009] Preferably, the base layer is made of a blend of spandex fiber and cotton fiber.

[0010] Preferably, the pressure layer is made of medical-grade elastic gauze.

[0011] Preferably, the breathable layer is made of non-woven composite material.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: the breathable layer can effectively expel sweat and moisture from the patient's skin surface, keep the inside of the bandage dry, reduce the risk of skin infection, and improve the patient's comfort; the soft and skin-friendly material of the comfort layer can reduce the friction and irritation of the bandage to the patient's skin, protect the patient's skin, and make the patient feel more comfortable during use.

[0021] See Example 1 Figure 1-2 and Figure 7This embodiment is a bandage 100 device for adjunctive treatment of lymphedema, comprising a bandage 100, which includes, in order from the inside out, a base layer 102, a pressure layer 103, and a breathable layer 104. The base layer 102 is made of a highly elastic material and has good elasticity and extensibility. The pressure layer 103 is composed of multiple layers of elastic bandages 100 and is used to apply a certain pressure to the limb. The breathable layer 104 is made of a breathable material and is used to expel sweat and moisture from the patient's skin surface, keeping the inside of the bandage 100 dry. A plurality of elastic bodies 200 are provided between the base layer 102 and the pressure layer 103. The thickness of the elastic bodies 200 is greater than the thickness of the bandage 100, causing the elastic bodies 200 to protrude outwards and inwards from the surface of the bandage 100.

[0022] Furthermore, a comfort layer 101 is provided on the side of the base layer 102 that contacts the skin. The comfort layer 101 is made of a flexible, skin-friendly material and is used to reduce friction and irritation of the patient's skin by the bandage 100.

[0023] Furthermore, the elastic body 200 is block-shaped. Furthermore, the elastic body 200 is a sponge block.

[0024] Furthermore, the base layer 102 and the pressure layer 103, and the pressure layer 103 and the breathable layer 104 are bonded and fixed together.

[0025] Preferably, the base layer 102 is made of a blend of spandex fiber and cotton fiber, which can closely fit the patient's limbs, provide stable basic support, and also has good breathability and moisture absorption, which can keep the patient's skin dry and comfortable.

[0026] Preferably, the pressure layer 103 is made of medical-grade elastic gauze, which has good elasticity and breathability. Preferably, the breathable layer 104 is made of non-woven composite material, which not only has good breathability but also has a certain degree of waterproof performance, preventing external moisture from seeping into the inside of the bandage 100.

[0027] Preferably, the comfort layer 101 is made of pure cotton fiber material, which has good softness and moisture absorption, effectively protecting the patient's skin and improving the patient's comfort. See Embodiment Two. Figure 3 , Figure 4 The structure of this embodiment is basically the same as that of Embodiment 1, except that the elastic body 200 is cylindrical.

[0028] See Example 3 Figure 5 , Figure 6The structure of this embodiment is basically the same as that of Embodiment 1. The difference is that the shape of the elastic body 200 is spherical, the size of each elastic body 200 is different, and they are not uniformly distributed on the bandage 100.
