Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to a muscle stretching training device for post-brain surgery rehabilitation. Background Technology

[0002] Muscle stretching exercises are a crucial part of rehabilitation after neurosurgery, promoting the recovery of neurological function and preventing muscle atrophy and joint stiffness. Postoperative muscle stretching can alleviate postoperative muscle shortening, such as the internal rotator muscles of the shoulder joint and the hamstring muscles of the lower limbs; and maintain the range of motion (ROM) of the joints, especially for the hemiplegic limbs.

[0003] It is generally recommended that post-traumatic brain surgery patients perform muscle stretching exercises 1-2 times daily. The duration of each session can be adjusted according to the patient's physical condition and tolerance, typically 20-30 minutes. The intensity of the stretching exercises should be such that the patient feels a slight pull in the muscles, but without pain or discomfort. As the patient's physical condition improves and muscle flexibility increases, the range and duration of stretching can be gradually increased, but it is important to proceed gradually and avoid overstretching.

[0004] In general, postoperative muscle stretching for patients in clinical practice requires stretching of the upper and lower limb muscles, as well as the neck muscles. Because the surgical site is in the brain, patients may experience dizziness, pain, and other discomfort when getting out of bed for stretching exercises, which can easily lead to instability and falls, potentially causing secondary injuries. Family members need to be present to support them and prevent falls. However, for overweight patients, even with family support, it is difficult to guarantee complete stability. Therefore, there is an urgent clinical need to design a muscle stretching training device specifically for postoperative neurosurgical patients to meet their rehabilitation needs while ensuring the safety of the rehabilitation training.

[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] This embodiment provides a post-traumatic brain surgery rehabilitation muscle stretching training device, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the device includes a carrying strap 1, which is worn by the patient. The carrying strap 1 has wearing holes on both sides for the patient's arms to slip through. Exposed notches are located at the upper ends of both ends of the carrying strap 1, situated on the side of the patient's neck. The two ends of the carrying strap 1 are joined together and sewn with Velcro, which includes a hook side and a loop side. When the two ends of the carrying strap 1 are joined, the loop side is attached to the corresponding hook side according to the desired tightness. The carrying strap 1 is suitable for patients of different body types. When the patient is lying supine on the hospital bed, the carrying strap 1 presses against the back, using the body weight and shoulders as a buffer to ensure that the carrying strap 1 does not slip significantly during downward movement.

[0024] Also revealed was the second type of tension rope, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the two ends of the stretch cord 2 are detachably connected to the wearing strap 1; a buckle 11 is sewn on the wearing strap 1 at the shoulder position, and the buckle 11 is located on the side of the wearing hole. Both ends of the stretch cord 2 are connected to hooks 22. The hooks 22 are hung on the buckles 11, so that the two ends of the stretch cord 2 can be connected to the wearing strap 1.

[0025] It also includes a support frame 32 that is adjustable relative to the wearing strap 1, with the following specific structure: it also includes a fixing clip 3, which is clipped onto the backrest of the bed at the foot of the bed. The support frame 32 has two vertically extending ends on the bottom sides, and a horizontally distributed U-shaped beam 31 is fixed between the two side walls of the two extending ends. The upper end of the fixing clip 3 is provided with a guide hole for the two ends of the U-shaped beam 31 to slide horizontally through.

[0026] Since different patients have different heights, the effective stretching length of the stretching rope 2 required for stretching is different. Therefore, limiting components are provided on both sides of the support frame 32. The position between the two ends of the stretching rope 2 extends away from the wearing strap 1 and is detachably connected to the two limiting components. The limiting components are used to tension the stretching rope 2.

[0027] Specifically, the limiting components include a support block 5 and a roller 51. A connecting rod is fixed between the support block 5 and the side wall of the support frame 32. Two backing plates are provided opposite each other on the upper surface of the support block 5. The roller 51 is rotatably positioned between the two backing plates. An insertion space is left between the roller 51 and the upper wall of the support block 5 for the tension rope 2 to pass through. The tension rope 2 is pulled along the insertion space towards the side away from the wearing strap 1. Moreover, a positioning hole 1 is opened on the radial side wall of the roller 51, and a positioning hole 21 is opened on the tension rope 2. A positioning pin 52 is internally threaded into the positioning hole 1. The bottom end of the positioning pin 52 can pass through the positioning hole 21 and contact the upper surface of the support block 5. At the same time, an inclined pedal 4 is provided on the upper surface of the support frame 32 for the patient to step on. The angle of the pedal 4 is as follows: Figure 1 The tilted state shown. Figure 1 The tilt angle of the display can be within the range of 45-60 degrees.

[0028] Based on the patient's height, first put the support strap 1 on the patient's upper body. Pass both ends of the tension rope 2 through the two insertion spaces, and then hang the two hooks 22 on the buckle loops 11. Next, fix the fixing clip 3 vertically onto the headboard at the foot of the bed. Slide the U-shaped beam 31 laterally along the guide hole to adjust the position of the support frame 32, i.e., adjust the limiting position of the insertion spaces of the two limiting components. It is important to ensure that the patient's knees are bent at a 45-degree angle, their feet are on the pedal 4, and the tension rope 2 is taut. The tension rope 2 should be an elastic rope; it is best if the tension rope 2 does not exhibit significant stretching deformation when taut without the patient's feet pressing against the pedal 4.

[0029] Finally, rotate the positioning pin 52 along the positioning hole one of the roller 51, adjust its bottom end to extend out of the bottom opening of the positioning hole one, and pass the bottom end of the positioning pin 52 through the positioning hole two 21 and make it contact the upper end face of the support block 5. The effective stretching length of the tension rope 2 can then be determined. Here, the length of the tension rope 2 from the insertion space to the hook 22, and this section of the tension rope 2 is not stretched or deformed, is the effective length of the tension rope 2.

[0030] The patient then lies on the bed with knees bent and feet on pedal 4, grasping the stretch rope 2 on either side of the body for stretching exercises. Specifically: the patient pushes off pedal 4 with their feet while simultaneously extending their arms from their sides, forming a 30-60° angle with their body. Because stretch rope 2 is elastic, the repeated bending and straightening of the knees assists in pulling down the shoulders to stretch the neck muscles. The patient can also flex, extend, and rotate their head to relax the neck muscles. Extending the arms further to the sides of the body with stretch rope 2 stretches the muscles, while the foot pushing off pedal 4 also stretches the lower limb muscles, resulting in a wide range of muscle training coverage.

[0031] Patients can perform pre-operative muscle stretching exercises while lying in bed. This ensures effective muscle stretching in the early postoperative period and avoids the safety risks of falls caused by standing stretches. Furthermore, the entire training device is cleverly designed, using an elastic stretching rope 2 to simultaneously stretch the muscles of the shoulder and upper and lower limbs, achieving the goal of training multiple areas at the same time.

[0032] In this embodiment, the bottom of the support surface of the pedal 4 is further provided with a heel support 41, which is used to support the heel and prevent the foot from leaving the pedal 4.

[0033] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
