Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dressing technology, specifically a novel integrated Achilles tendon postoperative dressing. Background Technology
[0002] When changing dressings after Achilles tendon surgery, the choice of dressing is crucial. It not only needs to keep the wound clean and moist to promote healing, but also needs to have certain antibacterial properties to reduce the risk of infection.
[0003] However, existing one-piece Achilles tendon postoperative dressings have the following drawbacks:
[0004] Existing one-piece Achilles tendon postoperative dressings have weak support for both sides of the Achilles tendon. During the dressing change, the empty grooves on both sides of the Achilles tendon lack proper support, resulting in residual dead space wounds that do not heal for a long time. Furthermore, traditional dressings are difficult to fit into the empty grooves on both sides of the Achilles tendon, causing limitations in the dressing and making the ankle joint prone to injury. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a novel integrated Achilles tendon postoperative dressing to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a novel integrated Achilles tendon postoperative dressing, comprising a protective ring, a connecting groove formed on the inner sidewall of the protective ring, a protrusion fixedly connected inside the connecting groove, a connecting strap fixedly connected to one side of the protective ring, a sub-hook and loop fastener provided on one side of the connecting strap, and a female hook and loop fastener provided on one side of the sub-hook and loop fastener.
[0007] Optionally, the outer surface of the protective ring is provided with a fixing groove, and the female hook and loop fastener is connected to the fixing groove. The fixing groove connects and fixes the female hook and loop fastener to the protective ring, and the protective ring supports and fixes the female hook and loop fastener to prevent it from slipping off.
[0008] Optionally, the inner wall of the protective ring is provided with a dressing body, the dressing body being made of sterile gauze, which is used to cover and protect the wound and prevent external bacteria from entering.
[0009] Optionally, the outer surface of the dressing body is provided with a limiting groove, and the protrusion fits into the limiting groove. The protrusion can support the empty groove on both sides of the patient's Achilles tendon, thereby increasing ankle joint stability and reducing the occurrence of ankle sprains.
[0010] Optionally, the protrusion is made of foam dressing, which has good water absorption, can keep the wound dry, and reduce the risk of infection.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0012] This novel integrated Achilles tendon postoperative dressing features a protective ring, raised blocks, connecting straps, and a female and male Velcro strap. During dressing changes, the protective ring is wrapped around both sides of the Achilles tendon, allowing the raised blocks to fill the grooves on both sides of the tendon. The connecting straps are then wrapped around the protective ring, securing the female and male Velcro straps together and connecting the protective ring to the Achilles tendon surface, preventing slippage. The raised blocks reduce the occurrence of ankle sprains, thus ensuring ankle stability and improving dressing change efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0018] 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.
[0019] Please see Figures 1-4As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a novel integrated Achilles tendon postoperative dressing, including a protective ring 1. The inner wall of the protective ring 1 is provided with a connecting groove 2. A protrusion 3 is fixedly connected inside the connecting groove 2. A connecting strap 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the protective ring 1. A sub-hook and loop fastener 5 is provided on one side of the connecting strap 4. A female hook and loop fastener 6 is provided on one side of the sub-hook and loop fastener 5. During the dressing change, after the protective ring 1 is attached around both sides of the patient's Achilles tendon, the protrusion 3 fills the empty grooves on both sides of the Achilles tendon. Then, the connecting strap 4 is attached around the protective ring 1, so that the sub-hook and loop fastener 5 and the female hook and loop fastener 6 are attached, thereby connecting the protective ring 1 to the surface of the Achilles tendon and preventing the protective ring 1 from slipping off. The protrusion 3 can reduce the occurrence of ankle sprains.
[0020] The outer surface of the protective ring 1 is provided with a fixing groove. The female hook and loop fastener 6 is connected to the fixing groove. The fixing groove connects and fixes the female hook and loop fastener 6 to the protective ring 1. The protective ring 1 supports and fixes the female hook and loop fastener 6 to prevent the female hook and loop fastener 6 from slipping off.
[0021] The inner wall of the protective ring 1 is provided with a dressing body 7, the dressing body 7 is made of sterile gauze, the sterile gauze is used to cover and protect the wound and prevent external bacteria from entering.
[0022] The outer surface of the dressing body 7 is provided with a limiting groove 8, and the protrusion 3 fits into the limiting groove 8. The protrusion 3 can support the empty groove on both sides of the patient's Achilles tendon, thereby increasing ankle joint stability and reducing the occurrence of ankle sprains.
[0023] The protrusion 3 is made of foam dressing, which has good water absorption, can keep the wound dry, and reduce the risk of infection.
[0024] In this invention, the working steps of the device are as follows:
[0025] First step: During the dressing change, after the protective ring 1 is attached around both sides of the patient's Achilles tendon, the protrusion 3 fills the empty grooves on both sides of the Achilles tendon. Then, the connecting strap 4 is attached around the protective ring 1, so that the child hook and loop fastener 5 and the mother hook and loop fastener 6 are attached, thereby connecting the protective ring 1 to the surface of the Achilles tendon and preventing the protective ring 1 from slipping off. The protrusion 3 can reduce the occurrence of ankle sprains.
[0026] Second step: The fixing groove connects and fixes the female hook and loop fastener 6 to the protective ring 1. The protective ring 1 supports and fixes the female hook and loop fastener 6 to prevent it from slipping off. Sterile gauze is used to cover and protect the wound to prevent external bacteria from entering.
[0027] The third step: The raised block 3 can support the grooves on both sides of the patient's Achilles tendon, thereby increasing ankle joint stability and reducing the occurrence of ankle sprains. The foam dressing has good water absorption, which can keep the wound dry and reduce the risk of infection.
[0028] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model.
