Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical mattress technology, specifically a medical prone multifunctional inflatable mattress. Background Technology

[0002] Common spinal cord and spinal diseases in neurosurgery, such as lumbar spinal canal lesions, tethered cord syndrome, and sacral cysts, often require patients to maintain a prone position for about a week post-surgery. While this position helps prevent postoperative complications such as cerebrospinal fluid leakage, wound bleeding, and infection, it is uncomfortable, difficult to maintain, and affects neck movement, thoracic-abdominal breathing, and digestive function. Prolonged lateral head positioning can lead to neck stiffness and discomfort; direct pressure on the chest and abdomen from the bed affects chest rise and fall and diaphragmatic descent, making patients prone to chest tightness and shortness of breath; prolonged abdominal pressure increases abdominal pressure, which in turn increases cerebrospinal fluid pressure, hindering the healing of dural leaks. Abdominal pressure also affects normal gastrointestinal motility, weakening digestion and absorption, increasing constipation, which further exacerbates abdominal pressure, affecting wound and dural leak healing, leading to decreased patient satisfaction, prolonged hospital stays, and increased hospital costs; pressure on the feet hinders ankle pump exercises in bed, increasing the risk of postoperative deep vein thrombosis in the lower extremities.

[0003] For example, patent application number 202320731764.2 discloses a multifunctional medical prone mattress, which relates to the technical field of medical mattresses. This utility model aims to solve the problem of the single function of traditional mattresses. It uses a breathing mask to cover the patient's face, without affecting breathing in the prone position, eliminating the need for the patient's head to be constantly in a side position. The patient's shoulders are secured in corresponding shoulder placement slots, and the arms are placed in corresponding arm placement plates, preventing excessive upper body movement and providing support for the arms. The toe suspension plate is periodically raised, suspending the patient's toes and promoting blood flow in the legs, thus improving the single function of traditional mattresses. However, this multifunctional medical prone mattress cannot adjust the body position angle according to the patient's needs, leaving the chest and abdomen under pressure, which can easily lead to chest tightness and shortness of breath. This invention addresses the problem that existing clinical mattresses lack assistance in turning patients and reducing pressure on the body during actual use.

[0004] Therefore, in view of this, we have studied and improved the existing structure to propose a medical prone multifunctional air mattress. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a multifunctional air mattress for prone positioning in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a medical prone multifunctional inflatable mattress, comprising an air mattress body, an air pump installed on the rear surface of the air mattress body, and an air pad cotton pad installed on the upper surface of the air mattress body.

[0022] 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.

[0023] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a medical prone multifunctional inflatable mattress includes an air mattress body 1, an air pump 101 installed on the rear surface of the air mattress body 1, and an air pad 108 installed on the upper surface of the air mattress body 1. An airbag partition module 102 is installed on the left side of the upper surface of the air pump 101, and a pressure regulator 103 is provided on the right side of the upper surface of the air pump 101. The advantage of this arrangement is that, through the setting of the airbag partition module 102 and the pressure regulator 103, when the air pump 101 inflates the components on the upper surface of the air mattress body 1, the airbag partition module 102 and the pressure regulator 103 can be used to inflate and adjust the pressure of individual airbag components respectively.

[0024] Furthermore, an inflation connector 104 is provided on the right side surface of the air mattress body 1, and a connector 105 is spirally installed on the outer surface of the inflation connector 104. The advantage of this arrangement is that the air pressure generated by the air pump 101 can be transmitted through the inflation connector 104.

[0025] Furthermore, a branch pipe 106 is provided at the end of connector 105, and connector 2 107 is installed at the end of branch pipe 106. Connector 2 107 is fixedly connected to the surface of air mattress body 1. The advantage of this setting is that, through the setting of branch pipe 106, the airbags installed on the upper surface of air mattress body 1 by snap-fit ​​can be individually inflated and deflated.

[0026] Furthermore, a wedge-shaped airbag 2 is provided on the left side of the middle of the upper surface of the air mattress body 1, and a wedge-shaped airbag 201 is provided on the right side of the middle of the upper surface. A connecting pad 202 is provided on the lower surface of the wedge-shaped airbag 2, and an inflation port 203 is provided on the lower surface of the connecting pad 202. The inflation port 203 is spirally connected to the connecting head 207. The advantage of this setting is that, by setting the wedge-shaped airbag 2 and the wedge-shaped airbag 201, the patient's trunk position can be assisted to be turned 15-30° by inflating and pressurizing the wedge-shaped airbag 2 and the wedge-shaped airbag 201 separately. This allows the patient to maintain the traditional position after spinal cord and spinal surgery, reduce the pressure on the patient's whole body, relieve the patient's chest tightness and shortness of breath, promote normal gastrointestinal motility, and reduce the incidence of constipation.

[0027] Furthermore, a head airbag 3 is provided on the upper front surface of the air mattress body 1, and the head airbag 3 is U-shaped. The advantage of this design is that the U-shaped airbag reduces pressure on the head and face, increases comfort, and reduces neck pain and pressure for the patient.

[0028] Furthermore, the front surface of the wedge-shaped airbag 2 is provided with a chest airbag 301, and the chest airbag 301 is cylindrical. The advantage of this design is that the chest airbag 301 can reduce the pressure on the patient's chest and relieve chest tightness and shortness of breath.

[0029] Furthermore, the rear end surface of the wedge-shaped airbag 2 is provided with an abdominal airbag 302, and the abdominal airbag 302 is circular. The advantage of this setting is that the abdominal airbag 302 can reduce the pressure on the patient's abdomen and reduce the incidence of constipation.

[0030] Furthermore, a leg airbag 303 is provided on the upper rear surface of the air mattress body 1, and the leg airbag 303 is set in a trapezoidal shape. The advantage of this setting is that the leg airbag 303 can be inflated in a stepwise manner to gradually elevate the patient's lower limbs, reduce leg tension, facilitate ankle pump exercises, and reduce the incidence of lower limb venous thrombosis.

[0031] Working Principle: When using the air mattress body 1 for postoperative recovery after spinal surgery, the air pump 101 inflates the head airbag 3, chest airbag 301, abdominal airbag 302, and leg airbag 303 connected to the branch tube 106 to support the patient's head and face, reduce neck pressure, alleviate chest and abdominal pressure, elevate the lower limbs, promote venous return, and facilitate ankle pump exercises in bed. Then, using the airbag partition module 102 and pressure regulator 103 to control the pressure, the wedge-shaped airbags 2 and 201 connected to the branch tube 106 are cyclically inflated to assist the patient with small-amplitude turning (15-30°), thereby reducing overall pressure on the patient and promoting comfort. After using the auxiliary airbag components installed on the upper surface of the air mattress body 1, to deflate them, simply unscrew the connector 105 from the outer surface of the inflation connector 104 for quick deflation. Simultaneously, multiple auxiliary airbag components can be removed using clips for cleaning and replacement. This is the working principle of the medical prone multi-functional inflatable mattress. It is worth noting that the specific model of the air pump 101 disclosed in the above embodiments is Zhuhai Heima AP2000L, and the airbag partition module 102 and pressure regulator 103 installed on the air pump 101 use a PLC control valve installed inside the air pump 101 to precisely distribute the pressure generated by the air pump 101 to each airbag through the branch pipe 106.
