Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of diabetic foot, and in particular to a dressing change device for diabetic foot patients. Background Technology
[0002] Diabetic patients suffer from foot infections, ulcers, and deep tissue damage due to distal lower limb nerve abnormalities and varying degrees of vascular lesions.
[0003] A search revealed the Chinese patent "A Diabetic Foot Dressing Change Device" (authorization announcement number CN221672448U). This utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary equipment technology, and more particularly to a diabetic foot dressing change device. The device includes a cylindrical body with an open top hinged to a transparent cap. Inside the body are two symmetrically arranged fixing heads, one fixed to the inner wall of the body and the other fixed to a fixing assembly located on one side of the body. A rotatable paper tube is inserted between the two fixing heads, and the paper on the tube has tear lines. A fixing seat is fixed to the side wall of the paper tube, with a rotating arm rotatably connected to one end. This diabetic foot dressing change device allows the patient's feet to be lifted for medical staff to apply medication. The angle and height of placement are adjustable for greater comfort when the patient's feet are lifted. Dripping medication falls onto the paper instead of the bed, and cleaning is simple; the paper is simply torn off along the tear lines, making cleaning convenient and preventing bed contamination.
[0004] Although the aforementioned diabetic foot dressing device is equipped with a support board and sponge pad to lift the patient's foot and assist medical staff in dressing changes, the curved design of the support board means that it may not provide a secure restraint for patients of different body types or with varying degrees of leg swelling. The lack of proper support makes the foot unstable during dressing changes due to external force or pain, affecting the procedure. Furthermore, the support board lifts the patient's foot, resulting in a tilted leg position. This causes the medication to easily drip down the ankle and calf, onto the bed, increasing the cleaning burden on medical staff.
[0005] Therefore, a dressing change device for diabetic foot patients is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a dressing change device for diabetic foot patients in order to solve the above-mentioned problems. It improves the problem that the lifting structure of the diabetic foot dressing change device is relatively fixed in shape and cannot provide stable restraint for feet of different sizes. At the same time, when applying the medicine, the medicine tends to slide down the patient's calf and drip onto the bed, which increases the cleaning burden for staff.
[0007] The present invention achieves the above objectives through the following technical solution: a dressing change device for diabetic foot patients, comprising: a mobile device and a base that slides horizontally above it to adjust the position of the patient's foot;
[0008] A fixation component, which is disposed above the base and is used to wrap and limit the patient's foot and absorb excess medication;
[0009] The fixing component includes a housing hinged to the base, a support plate is provided in the housing, four elastic parts are arranged in a rectangular array in the middle of the support plate, an airbag is provided in the housing, the airbag is arc-shaped, and absorbent cotton is adhered to the surface of the airbag.
[0010] Preferably, the fixing component further includes a cylinder disposed in the lower part of the outer shell, a piston rod is vertically slidably connected in the cylinder, the air outlet of the cylinder is connected to the air bag through an air pipe, and a support plate is fixedly connected to the upper end of the piston rod in the cylinder. By cooperating with the support plate, the air in the cylinder can be injected into the air bag when the support plate deforms and moves downward, so that the air bag inflates and drives the absorbent cotton to adhere to the skin surface of the patient's foot, thereby improving the absorption effect of excess medicine.
[0011] Preferably, a fixed shell is provided on the front side of the outer shell via a horizontally sliding connecting rod, and the airbag is located in the fixed shell. Both the fixed shell and the airbag are arc-shaped. The fixed shell can limit the airbag, so that the airbag can expand in an orderly manner when it inflates.
[0012] Preferably, the outer shell is made of plastic, and the upper sides of the outer shell are respectively provided with mutually compatible slots and blocks. Through the above design, it can be used with the support plate to wrap and limit the patient's ankle.
[0013] Preferably, both sides of the tray surface are designed with openings, and auxiliary wheels are movably connected to the holes of the tray via rotating shafts. The auxiliary wheels can assist the user in adjusting the angle of their feet.
[0014] Preferably, the auxiliary wheels are arranged in a rectangular array of multiple wheels, and the auxiliary wheels are made of medical-grade rubber.
[0015] Preferably, the absorbent cotton is adhered to the surface of the airbag, and the absorbent cotton is a disposable tampon. Through the above design, it is convenient for personnel to replace the tampons and maintain the hygiene of the dressing change operation.
[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0017] By setting up a plastic outer shell, tray, and elastic parts, when the patient places their foot and ankle on the tray, the tray will deform downward through multiple elastic parts. At the same time, the outer shell will also be pulled down by the tray and its two ends will come closer together, forming a wrapping and limiting effect on the patient's foot and ankle, improving the stability of the patient's foot and ankle when medical staff apply medication.
[0018] By incorporating a cylinder, a fixed shell, an airbag, and absorbent cotton, when the patient places their foot and ankle in the shell for positioning, the piston rod moves downward within the cylinder by pressing down on the support plate, which in turn inflates the airbag. This allows the airbag to pull the absorbent cotton to adhere to the patient's foot and ankle skin, effectively absorbing any medication that drips down the patient's foot and ankle during medication application, preventing the medication from falling onto the sheets and increasing the cleaning burden on medical staff.

[0024] 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.
[0025] In practical implementation: such as Figure 1-4 As shown, a dressing change device for diabetic foot patients includes: a mobile device 1 and a base 3 that slides horizontally above it and can adjust the position of the patient's foot;
[0026] Fixing component 2 is positioned above base 3 and is used to wrap and limit the patient's foot and absorb excess medication.
[0027] Before changing the dressing, medical staff need to adjust the distance between the two fixing components 2 according to the patient's shape. During adjustment, the relative or opposite adjustment can be made by moving the device 1. The adjustment component consists of a housing, a lead screw and a threaded sleeve. The lead screw is fixedly connected to the housing through a bearing seat. The threaded sleeve is threadedly connected to the surface of the lead screw and slides horizontally in the housing. The top of the threaded sleeve is fixed to the base 3. During adjustment, medical staff only need to turn the lead screw, and then the lead screw will rotate and cause the two threaded sleeves to move relative or oppositely, so that the two fixing components 2 can be adapted to patients with different shapes.
[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the fixing component 2 includes a housing 201 hinged to the base 3. A support plate 207 is provided in the housing 201. Four elastic parts 208 are arranged in a rectangular array in the middle of the support plate 207. The housing 201 is made of plastic. The upper two sides of the housing 201 are respectively provided with mutually compatible slots and blocks. Both sides of the surface of the support plate 207 are designed with openings. Auxiliary wheels 209 are movably connected to the holes of the support plate 207 through a rotating shaft. Multiple auxiliary wheels 209 are arranged in a rectangular array. The auxiliary wheels 209 are made of medical rubber.
[0029] In practical use, the patient first places their ankle inside and below the outer shell 201. At this time, the support plate 207 will contact the patient's ankle. Due to the weight of the patient's ankle, the support plate 207 will drop and bend and deform through multiple elastic parts 208. When the support plate 207 drops, it will pull the two sides of the outer shell 201 closer to each other, so that the outer shell 201 and the support plate 207 can wrap around the patient's ankle, which can effectively limit the patient's ankle.
[0030] It should be noted that the tray 207 is made of medical-grade plastic, the elastic part 208 is made of medical-grade silicone, and the tray 207 and the elastic part 208 are bonded together.
[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, an airbag 205 is provided in the outer shell 201. The airbag 205 has an arc-shaped design, and absorbent cotton 206 is adhered to the surface of the airbag 205. The fixing component 2 also includes a cylinder 203 located in the lower part of the outer shell 201. A piston rod is vertically slidably connected in the cylinder 203. The air outlet of the cylinder 203 is connected to the airbag 205 through an air pipe. A support plate 202 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the piston rod in the cylinder 203. A fixing shell 204 is provided on the front side of the outer shell 201 through a horizontally sliding connecting rod. The airbag 205 is located in the fixing shell 204. Both the fixing shell 204 and the airbag 205 have an arc-shaped design. The absorbent cotton 206 is adhered to the surface of the airbag 205. The absorbent cotton 206 is a disposable cotton strip.
[0032] When the support plate 207 moves down, it will come into contact with the support plate 202. After the support plate 202 is pressed, it will drive the piston rod to press down in the cylinder 203. At this time, the gas in the cylinder 203 will be squeezed into the airbag 205. Then the airbag 205 will rise upward through the limit of the fixed shell 204. The absorbent cotton 206 on the surface of the airbag 205 will adhere to the skin surface of the patient's foot. In this way, when the staff applies medicine to the patient's foot, the medicine will be absorbed by the absorbent cotton 206 as it slides down the patient's foot, preventing the medicine from dripping onto the bed sheet and increasing the cleaning burden for medical staff.
[0033] It should be noted that: the absorbent cotton 206 is a disposable medical tampon. When connecting the tampon to the airbag 205, the bottom of the tampon is attached to the airbag 205 using medical mesh double-sided tape. After use, simply peel off the absorbent cotton 206 and the double-sided tape.
[0034] When disinfecting the tray 207, the elastic part 208 and the airbag 205, it is only necessary to wipe their surfaces with disinfectant.
[0035] Working principle: In actual use, the patient first places their ankle inside and below the outer shell 201. At this time, the support plate 207 will contact the patient's ankle. Due to the weight of the patient's ankle, the support plate 207 will drop and bend through multiple elastic parts 208. When the support plate 207 drops, it will pull the two sides of the outer shell 201 closer together, so that the outer shell 201 and the support plate 207 form a wrap around the patient's ankle, which can effectively limit the movement of the patient's ankle. When the support plate 207 moves down, it will interact with the support plate 207. Upon contact, the support plate 202, when pressed, drives the piston rod to press down in the cylinder 203. At this time, the gas in the cylinder 203 is squeezed into the airbag 205. The airbag 205 then rises upward through the limiting of the fixed shell 204. The absorbent cotton 206 on the surface of the airbag 205 adheres to the skin surface of the patient's foot. In this way, when personnel apply medicine to the patient's foot, the medicine will be absorbed by the absorbent cotton 206 as it slides down the patient's foot, preventing the medicine from dripping onto the bed sheet and increasing the cleaning burden on medical staff.
[0036] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
