Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a sandbag and patient limb fixation auxiliary device after permanent pacemaker implantation. Background Technology
[0002] Permanent pacemakers are the primary treatment for irreversible cardiac pacing and conduction dysfunction caused by various factors. Post-operatively, sandbags need to be applied for 6-8 hours and should not be removed independently. Elevation of the upper limbs should be avoided as much as possible.
[0003] Most existing methods for securing sandbags involve using a single piece of clothing, which is inconvenient to put on and take off. Conversely, simpler, easier-to-wear securing devices rarely provide simultaneous upper limb support. Figure 4 As shown, the prior art CN212816410U mentions a simple device that can accommodate both the arm and the sandbag. However, the arm and abdomen of this device are fixed together in one piece. After sweating, the skin between the arm and the arm is easy to slip and cannot be stably fixed, which is not conducive to use in hot summer weather. In addition, its shoulder fixation is only fixed by the shoulder diagonal strip, which is easy to slip off and not stable enough, and it cannot also fix the upper arm. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies and provide a sandbag and limb fixation auxiliary device after permanent pacemaker implantation, comprising:
[0005] A sandbag and limb fixation aid device after permanent pacemaker implantation, characterized in that it comprises:
[0006] A sheet-like torso fixation component covering the torso region, wherein the torso fixation component has first connecting components at both ends to facilitate the torso fixation component being put on and taken off;
[0007] A sandbag receiving component for accommodating sandbags is disposed on the outside of the torso fixation component in a region that matches the heart and is fixedly connected to the torso fixation component. The sandbag receiving component has a sandbag receiving area.
[0008] The shoulder and upper arm fixing components that cover the periphery of the shoulder and arm have a fan-shaped cross-section with a central angle of a first preset angle. The end of the shoulder and upper arm fixing components away from the arc edge is fixedly connected to the torso fixing components.
[0009] A sheet-like forearm fixation component covering the periphery of the forearm, the midline of the forearm fixation component being connected to the side seam of the torso fixation component, and the two ends of the forearm fixation component being provided with second connecting components to facilitate the forearm fixation component being put on and taken off.
[0010] Furthermore, the sandbag receiving component is in the shape of a pouch, and an opening is provided at the upper end of the side of the sandbag receiving component away from the torso fixing component, forming a sandbag placement entrance.
[0011] Furthermore, the first preset angle of the fan-shaped shoulder and upper arm fixing component ranges from 90° to 130°; the arc-shaped edge of the shoulder and upper arm fixing component is divided at the midpoint, and the area from the midpoint to the upper end face of the shoulder and upper arm fixing component is the shoulder fixing area; the area from the midpoint to the lower end face of the shoulder and upper arm fixing component is the upper arm fixing area.
[0012] Furthermore, both the first connecting component and the second connecting component are Velcro components.
[0013] Furthermore, the torso fixation component, the sandbag receiving component, the shoulder and upper arm fixation component, and the forearm fixation component are all made of elastic fabric.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. The abdominal and forearm portions of the sandbag and patient limb fixation auxiliary device of this utility model after permanent pacemaker implantation are all put on or taken off with Velcro, which is simple and not cumbersome.
[0016] 2. The cross-section of the shoulder and upper arm fixation components of the permanent pacemaker implantation postoperative sandbag and patient limb fixation auxiliary device is fan-shaped. The fan-shaped shoulder and upper arm fixation components can fully wrap and fix the shoulder and upper limb, forming a stable triangular fixation with the trunk fixation components, which can more effectively fix the sandbag in the designated position.
[0017] 3. In this utility model, the forearm fixation component used to prevent the arm from being raised after permanent pacemaker implantation is connected to the trunk fixation component but not connected, which effectively prevents the forearm from sweating due to contact with the limb when fixing the forearm and increases the body's comfort.

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0032] Example 1
[0033] Please see Figure 1-4 The technical solution for a sandbag and limb fixation auxiliary device after permanent pacemaker implantation provided in this embodiment includes the following:
[0034] A sheet-like torso fixation component 1 covering the torso region, wherein the torso fixation component 1 has first connecting components at both ends to facilitate the torso fixation component 1 being put on and taken off;
[0035] The sandbag receiving component 2 for accommodating sandbags is disposed on the outside of the torso fixation component 1 in a region that matches the heart and is fixedly connected to the torso fixation component 1. The sandbag receiving component 2 has a sandbag receiving area.
[0036] The shoulder and upper arm fixing component 3, which covers the periphery of the shoulder and arm, has a fan-shaped cross-section with a central angle of a first preset angle. The end of the shoulder and upper arm fixing component 3 away from the arc edge is fixedly connected to the torso fixing component 1 (as shown in the attached figure). Figure 3 As shown in (a), the front and rear ends of the shoulder and upper arm fixing component 3 are fixedly connected to the upper left anterior chest region and the upper left posterior back region of the torso fixing component, respectively, forming a channel for arm insertion.
[0037] A sheet-like forearm fixation component 4 is wrapped around the forearm. The midline of the forearm fixation component 4 is connected to the side seam of the torso fixation component 1. The two ends of the forearm fixation component 4 are provided with second connecting components to facilitate the put-on and take-off of the forearm fixation component 4.
[0038] As attached Figure 1 As shown, the torso fixing component 1 has a sheet-like structure that covers the torso of the human body. The two ends of this sheet-like structure are provided with first connecting components, namely Velcro components 5, as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 3 As shown in (a), the inner end of the back covering of the trunk fixation component 1 is provided with barbs, while the outer end of the abdominal covering of the trunk fixation component 1 is provided with round hairs (the gray filled area in the attached figure of this application is the round hairs, and the oblique shaded area is the barbs). When in use, press the abdominal covering, tighten the back covering, and then stick the barbs to the round hairs to complete the fixation. The final contact area of the Velcro assembly 5 of the trunk fixation component 1 is set in front of the abdomen, which can avoid the height difference of the Velcro contact area on the back, which will increase the patient's discomfort.
[0039] In specific implementation, as shown in the appendix Figure 1 As shown, the shoulder and upper arm fixing component 3 is similar to that in the prior art ( Figure 4 The top left corner) features a piece of shoulder strap that covers the shoulder area, but Figure 4 The existing technology uses a simple shoulder diagonal strip fixation, which is prone to slipping and cannot cover the upper arm. Therefore, in this application, the shoulder and upper arm fixation component 3 is set as a fan shape with a large coverage area. On the one hand, it can form a stable triangular structure with the connection point of the torso fixation component 1, making the fixation more secure. On the other hand, the arc surface of the fan shape wraps around the upper arm and shoulder of the human body, increasing the force-bearing surface. It can be more secure than a single shoulder fixation strap while enhancing the comfort of the body. The shoulder and upper arm fixation component 3 can adopt an integrated structural design with the torso fixation component 1 or be fixedly connected to the torso fixation component 1 by sewing. The first preset angle of the fan-shaped shoulder and upper arm fixation component 3 is in the range of 90°~130°.
[0040] In practice, the size of the first preset angle can be selected according to the patient's body shape, that is, the size of the area that the shoulder and upper arm fixation component 3 can cover. For example, patients with broad and thick shoulders can choose a larger first preset angle, which covers a larger area of the shoulder and upper arm fixation component 3.
[0041] As attached Figure 1 As shown, the arc-shaped edge of the shoulder and upper arm fixing component 3 is divided at the midpoint. The area from the midpoint to the upper end face of the shoulder and upper arm fixing component 3 is the shoulder fixing area 31; the area from the midpoint to the lower end face of the shoulder and upper arm fixing component 3 is the upper arm fixing area 32.
[0042] Preferably, Figure 4 In existing technologies, the torso covering directly covers the torso and forearm. This structure results in the inner arm being tightly pressed against the torso, leading to sweating and making it unsuitable for summer use. In contrast, the forearm fixing component 4 of this invention is independently located from the torso fixing component 1. The midline of the forearm fixing component 4 is fixedly connected to the torso fixing component 1 by stitching or other methods, as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 3 As shown in (a), the inner end of the cover plate behind the forearm fixing component 4 is provided with barbs, while the outer end of the cover plate in front of the forearm fixing component 4 is provided with round hairs. When in use, press the cover plate in front of the arm, tighten the cover plate behind the arm, and then stick the barbs to the round hairs to complete the fixing.
[0043] In specific implementation, such as Figure 2 The size of the Velcro component 5 can also be widened to match and adjust different body shapes for secure fastening.
[0044] Specifically, the sandbag receiving component 2 is a hollow bag style. The upper part of the side of the sandbag receiving component 2 away from the torso fixing component 1 has an opening, which forms a sandbag placement entrance. The sandbag receiving component 2 and the torso fixing component 1 can be fixed by adhesive, sewing, or a combination of adhesive and sewing.
[0045] In specific implementation, such as Figure 3 As shown, the arm can first be inserted into the shoulder and upper arm fixing component 3, then the Velcro assembly 5 on the forearm fixing component 4 and the torso fixing component 1 can be opened, and the torso fixing component 1 can be wrapped around and fixed to the torso of the human body (i.e., Figure 2 The round hairs on the outer side of the leftmost trunk fixation component 1 and the barbs on the inner side of the rightmost trunk fixation component 1 work together, with the barbs on the rightmost side attached above the round hairs on the leftmost side, to complete trunk fixation. The forearm fixation component 4 is then wrapped around the patient's forearm and fixed in place. Figure 2 The two in the middle are the Velcro components 5 of the forearm fixing parts 4. The round hairs in the Velcro component 5 on the left in the middle and the barbs on the right in the middle work together to fix it. Finally, adjust the fan-shaped shoulder and upper arm fixing parts 3 so that half of the shoulder and upper arm fixing parts 3 wraps around and fixes the shoulder, and the other half fixes the upper arm. The shoulder and upper arm fixing parts 3 and the forearm fixing parts 4 work together to prevent the arm from being raised.
[0046] Specifically, to facilitate patient use and feel, the trunk fixation component 1, the sandbag receiving component 2, the shoulder and upper arm fixation component 3, and the forearm fixation component 4 are all made of elastic fabric.
[0047] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
