Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically a nursing trolley with a protective device. Background Technology

[0002] Nursing carts play a vital role in the healthcare environment, especially in transporting medical equipment and medications. They significantly reduce the workload of nursing staff and improve work efficiency. They are not only an important tool in the medical process but also a key link connecting various medical links, ensuring the continuity and efficiency of medical services. However, in the field of psychiatric nursing, the use of nursing carts faces more severe challenges. Due to the emotional instability of psychiatric patients, they may engage in irrational behavior due to agitation, anxiety, or other reasons, such as suddenly overturning medications or tipping over the cart. These behaviors may not only harm the patients themselves but also pose a potential threat to surrounding medical staff, thereby increasing the risk of medical accidents.

[0003] While commercially available psychiatric care trolleys meet basic transport needs to some extent, most employ standard designs with relatively simple structures and lack protective features tailored to the specific needs of psychiatric patients. These trolleys often prove inadequate in handling potential emergencies. For example, when patients become emotionally unstable, they may bump into the trolley, causing it to become unstable and shake. Similarly, when medical staff push the trolley, uneven surfaces or accidental collisions with pedestrians, trash cans, bedside tables, or other objects can also cause it to shake, potentially leading to medication spills, bottles colliding, and other chain reactions. These unexpected situations not only waste medical resources but also endanger the safety of both patients and medical staff. Therefore, we propose a care trolley equipped with protective devices.
