Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of medical and nursing supplies, and in particular to a rehabilitation exercise kit for mechanically ventilated patients. Background Technology
[0002] Mechanical ventilation is an important medical procedure that uses mechanical devices such as ventilators to assist or control a patient's breathing to maintain adequate oxygenation and ventilation. Clinically, some patients require endotracheal intubation connected to a ventilator. However, as the patient's condition gradually improves, doctors encourage appropriate bedside activities or walking to promote recovery and reduce complications. But because the endotracheal tube is connected to the ventilator via tubing, it is usually necessary for the patient or someone else to hold the tube in place to prevent it from slipping out of the mouth due to gravity. This not only restricts the patient's freedom of movement but also increases the risk of the tube dislodging or shifting.
[0003] Currently available hospital gowns only provide basic coverage and do not have the function of securing mechanical ventilation tubes. Furthermore, for patients requiring drainage bags, existing gowns also lack dedicated placement for the bags and securing of the drainage tubes, which can easily lead to difficulties in movement or problems with the drainage tubes being pulled. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the lack of a fixed mechanical ventilation tube and the inconvenience of carrying drainage bags, the purpose of this invention is to provide a rehabilitation exercise kit for mechanically ventilated patients. This exercise kit is suitable for mechanically ventilated patients who require rehabilitation activities.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A rehabilitation exercise suit for mechanically ventilated patients includes a top 1 and pants 2. The top 1 has a neckline 11 that exposes the tracheotomy site of the wearer. At least two strap assemblies 3 are connected to the outer chest area of the top 1 and at least two strap assemblies 3 are connected to the outer abdomen area of the top 1. The strap assemblies 3 are used to limit the tubing of the ventilator. The front of the pants 2 has a pocket 4 for placing a drainage bag and a catheter fixing patch 5. The catheter fixing patch 5 is located above the pocket 4 and is used to limit the catheter connected to the drainage bag.
[0007] Furthermore, multiple strap components 3 located on the outer chest area of the top 1 are arranged horizontally; multiple strap components 3 located on the outer abdomen area of the top 1 are also arranged horizontally.
[0008] Furthermore, the strap assembly 3 includes a slide 31, a slider 32, and a strap 33. The slide 31 is connected to the upper garment 1. The slide 31 is arranged laterally. The slider 32 is slidably connected to the slide 31. One end of the strap 33 is connected to the slider 32, and the strap 33 is used to wrap the tubing of the ventilator.
[0009] Furthermore, one side of one end of the strap 33 is bonded to the top surface of the slider 32, and the other side of one end of the strap 33 is provided with a hook and loop fastener; the other end of the strap 33 is provided with a loop and loop fastener velvet surface.
[0010] Furthermore, the top 1 includes a front piece 12 and a back piece 13, with the edges of the front piece 12 and the back piece 13 being detachably connected.
[0011] Furthermore, the pants 2 include a front panel 21 and a back panel 22, with the inner leg edge of the front panel 21 sewn to the inner leg edge of the back panel 22; the outer leg edge of the front panel 21 is detachably connected to the outer leg edge of the back panel 22.
[0012] Furthermore, both the pocket 4 and the tube fixing patch 5 are connected to the outer side of the front panel 21 of the pants.
[0013] Furthermore, the catheter fixing patch 5 includes a fixing part 51 and a free part 52. One side of the fixing part 51 is connected to the front piece 21 of the pants, and the other side of the fixing part 51 is connected to one side of the free part 52 by Velcro.
[0014] Furthermore, the neckline 11 is a V-neck.
[0015] Because this utility model employs the aforementioned technology, it has the following positive effects compared to existing technologies:
[0016] (1) The upper garment of this utility model is connected to a strap assembly, which is used to fix the ventilator tubing, thereby preventing the endotracheal tube from slipping out of the patient's mouth due to gravity. Straps are provided at both the chest and abdomen positions of the upper garment. One tube is fixed by one strap assembly at the chest and another at the abdomen, and these two fixing points increase stability. The strap assembly includes a slide, a slider, and a strap. The slide is arranged laterally, the slider is slidably connected to the slide, and one end of the strap is connected to the slider. The strap is used to wrap around the ventilator tubing. When the patient moves, the upper garment moves relative to the ventilator tubing. The sliding design of the slider and the slide allows the tubing to move slightly relative to the upper garment when the patient moves, increasing the patient's range of motion compared to no sliding.
[0017] (2) The front panel of the pants of this utility model is connected to a pocket and a catheter fixing patch. The pocket is used to place the drainage bag, and the catheter fixing patch is used to fix the drainage tube. When the patient moves, it is convenient to carry the drainage bag and can prevent the drainage tube from being pulled, thus maintaining the patient's safety.
[0018] (3) The upper garment of this utility model includes a front piece and a back piece. The edges of the front and back pieces are connected by Velcro. Compared to traditional hospital gowns that require the arms to be put on or taken off through the upper cuffs, this utility model is easier for patients to put on and take off. The trousers of this utility model include a front piece and a back piece. The outer leg edges of the front and back pieces are detachably connected. Compared to traditional hospital gowns that require the legs to be put on or taken off through the upper trouser legs, this utility model is easier for patients to put on and take off, providing greater convenience for patients with limited mobility.

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but this is not intended to limit the present invention.
[0027] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a rehabilitation exercise kit for mechanically ventilated patients is illustrated, comprising a top 1 and pants 2. The top 1 has a neckline 11 that exposes the wearer's tracheotomy site. At least two strap assemblies 3 are connected to the outer chest area of the top 1. At least two strap assemblies 3 are connected to the outer abdomen area of the top 1. The strap assemblies 3 are used to limit the tubing of the ventilator. The front of the pants 2 has a pocket 4 for placing a drainage bag and a catheter fixation patch 5, which is located above the pocket 4 and is used to limit the catheter connected to the drainage bag.
[0028] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, a plurality of strap components 3 located on the outer chest area of the top 1 are arranged laterally; a plurality of strap components 3 located on the outer abdomen area of the top 1 are also arranged laterally.
[0029] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, three horizontally arranged strap components 3 are connected to the outer chest area of the upper garment 1; another three horizontally arranged strap components 3 are connected to the outer abdomen area of the upper garment 1; the strap components 3 are used to securely connect the ventilator and the endotracheal tube. Since the endotracheal tube is generally inserted into the body through the patient's mouth or neck, the strap components 3 located on the chest are closer to the tube location, resulting in better fixation. Simultaneously, the fixation is further strengthened by a strap component 3 located on the abdomen, thus providing a more stable effect at both fixation points. The horizontal distribution of the strap components 3 allows for selection of fixation positions according to the patient's different movement needs.
[0030] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the three strap components 3 at the chest position of the top 1 are on the same horizontal line, with one strap component 3 located in the middle of the top 1 and the other two strap components 3 located on the left and right sides near the top 1, respectively; the three strap components 3 at the abdomen position of the top 1 are on the same horizontal line, with one abdominal strap component 3 located directly below one chest strap component 3.
[0031] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the strap assembly 3 includes a slide 31, a slider 32, and a strap 33. The slide 31 is connected to the garment 1; the slide 31 is arranged laterally; the slider 32 is slidably connected to the slide 31; one end of the strap 33 is connected to the slider 32, and the strap 33 is used to wrap the ventilator tubing, fixing the tubing in place through static friction to prevent it from moving up and down. When fixing the ventilator tubing, the garment 1 and the ventilator tubing may move relative to each other. The sliding design of the slider 32 and the slide 31 allows the tubing to move slightly on the garment 1 when the patient moves, increasing the patient's range of motion compared to no sliding.
[0032] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, further, in a preferred embodiment, the slider 32 is slidably connected to the slide rail 31 via ball bearings; one side of one end of the strap 33 is bonded to the top surface of the slider 32, and the other side of one end of the strap 33 is provided with a Velcro hook surface; the other end of the strap 33 is a free end, and the other end of the strap 33 is provided with a Velcro fleece surface. When fixing the ventilator tubing, the strap 33 is wrapped around the ventilator tubing, and the Velcro fleece surface of the other end of the strap 33 is bonded to the Velcro hook surface of one end of the strap 33. Due to the static friction between the tubing and the strap 33, the tubing is fixed on the strap 33. Preferably, the slide rail 31 is made of aluminum alloy, which has the advantages of being lightweight but having a strong load-bearing capacity.
[0033] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the side of the strap 33 that contacts the pipeline is provided with multiple strip-shaped protrusions, which can increase the friction with the pipeline and make the wrapped pipeline more stable.
[0034] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, further, in a preferred embodiment, the garment 1 includes a front panel 12 and a back panel 13, with the edges of the front panel 12 and the back panel 13 detachably connected. Preferably, the edges of the front panel 12 and the back panel 13 are connected by Velcro. When the patient needs to remove the garment 1, they only need to unfasten the Velcro on one sleeve and the Velcro on the same side of the body, and then remove the garment 1 from the other side. Compared to front- or back-opening designs, this side-opening method avoids significant arm bending. Furthermore, when the patient is bedridden and unable to move easily, they only need to unfasten all the Velcro connecting the front panel 12 and the back panel 13, without needing to get up significantly, improving the ease of wearing. The edges of the front panel 12 and the back panel 13 can also be connected by spaced-apart buttons.
[0035] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, further, in a preferred embodiment, the trousers 2 include a front panel 21 and a back panel 22. The inner leg edges of the front panel 21 and the back panel 22 are sewn together. The outer leg edges of the front panel 21 and the back panel 22 are detachably connected. Preferably, the outer leg edges of the front panel 21 and the back panel 22 are connected by Velcro. When the patient needs to remove the trousers 2, they only need to pull open the Velcro on both sides of the trousers 2 to remove them. This is more convenient than traditional hospital gowns that require the patient to pull their legs out of the trousers. When the patient needs to put on the trousers 2, they can first place the trousers 2 in the correct position on their legs, and then attach the Velcro on both sides in sequence. This design increases the ways to put on and take off the trousers 2, improving the ease of wearing. The outer leg edges of the front panel 21 and the back panel 22 can also be connected by buttons arranged at intervals.
[0036] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, both the pocket 4 and the catheter securing patch 5 are connected to the outer side of the front panel 21 of the pants. The placement of the pocket 4 and the catheter securing patch 5 on the front panel 21 of the pants facilitates the placement and retrieval of the drainage bag.
[0037] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the pocket 4 and the catheter fixing patch 5 are positioned at the thigh; the opening of the pocket 4 faces upward; the catheter fixing patch 5 is located above the pocket 4. When the drainage bag is placed in the pocket 4, the drainage tube extends from above the pocket 4 into the body. The drainage tube is fixed by the catheter fixing patch 5, which prevents the connection between the drainage tube and the drainage bag from bending and affecting the drainage effect. In addition, it prevents the drainage tube from stretching outward and causing pulling.
[0038] Please refer to Figure 6 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the catheter fixing patch 5 includes a fixing part 51 and a free part 52. One side of the fixing part 51 is connected to the front panel 21 of the pants, and the other side of the fixing part 51 is connected to one side of the free part 52 via Velcro. In use, the drainage tube is placed between the hook side and the fleece side of the Velcro, and then the hook side and the fleece side are glued together to wrap and fix the drainage tube.
[0039] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, each of the two legs of the front panel 21 of the trousers is provided with a pocket 4 and a catheter fixing patch 5. Having two pockets 4 on each leg 2 makes it more convenient for patients carrying multiple drainage bags.
[0040] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the collar 11 is a V-neck. Since some mechanically ventilated patients are tracheotomized, this V-neck design increases the openness of the neck, facilitating observation of the intubation site.
[0041] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, both the top 1 and the pants 2 are made of a polyester-cotton blend, which makes them more inclusive, comfortable, and easy for patients to move around in.
[0042] Wearing process:
[0043] When the patient puts on top 1, first attach the Velcro to one sleeve and the Velcro to the same side of the body, then put the arm through the sleeve. Next, attach the Velcro to the other sleeve and the same side of the body to complete the garment. When the patient needs to remove top 1, simply unfasten the Velcro on one sleeve and the same side of the body, then remove top 1 from the other side. This process can be assisted by someone else, but the specific method of putting on and taking off can be adjusted according to the actual situation.
[0044] When the patient puts on pants 2, first place them correctly on the legs, then fasten the Velcro on both sides of pants 2 to complete the dressing. When the patient needs to remove pants 2, simply unfasten the Velcro on both sides to remove them. This is much more convenient than traditional hospital gowns that require the patient to pull their legs out of the pant legs. This design increases the ways to put on and take off pants 2, making them more suitable for patients with limited mobility. This dressing and undressing process can be assisted by someone else, but the specific method can be adjusted according to the actual situation.
[0045] When a patient wants to perform rehabilitation exercises, the ventilator tubing can be connected to the upper garment 1 via the strap assembly 3. At the same time, the drainage bag can be placed in the pocket 4 and the drainage tube can be fixed with the catheter fixation tape 5. In this way, rehabilitation exercises can be performed.
[0046] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the implementation methods and protection scope of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art should realize that any equivalent substitutions and obvious changes made based on the description and illustrations of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
