Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical assistive devices, and in particular to a multifunctional bedridden assistive device suitable for the elderly. Background Technology
[0002] As society ages, China has an increasing number of elderly people. With this growing number, the elderly face numerous social problems, including care, medical treatment, and emotional support, which deserve attention from all sectors of society.
[0003] For elderly people who are bedridden for a long time, the pressure on the calf tissues for extended periods can obstruct blood circulation in that area, making them prone to pressure sores and causing significant pain. In addition, the inability of the elderly to exercise their legs properly during prolonged periods of bed rest can easily lead to lower limb curling and foot drop.
[0004] To prevent pressure sores, foot drop, and lower limb curling, medical staff need to turn elderly people who are bedridden for a long time over time and perform effective massage on their legs and feet. This method not only increases the workload of medical staff, but also cannot effectively prevent pressure sores, foot drop, and lower limb curling, which brings great inconvenience to the care of elderly people who are bedridden for a long time.
