Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nursing equipment technology, specifically a wearable smart stoma care cover. Background Technology

[0002] A stoma is caused by diseases of the digestive or urinary system. It requires surgical treatment to separate the intestinal tract and bring one end of the intestinal tract to the body surface (abdominal wall) to form an opening. This can achieve intestinal decompression, reduce obstruction, protect the anastomosis or damage of distal intestinal tract, promote the healing of intestinal and urinary tract diseases, and even save the patient's life.

[0003] Currently, after rectal surgery, the sphincter nerve is removed, and the patient cannot receive the signal to defecate. This causes stoma patients to be unable to independently determine when to defecate, affecting their quality of life. Utility Model Content

In addition, pressing the detection cover regularly can massage the area around the stoma, which can also help prevent parahernia and facilitate the changing of temporary ostomy bags.

[0022] Stoma patients, due to surgical treatment, lose the pressure of excrement on the colon, leading to a rapid expansion of the rectal wall and triggering a reflex response. This invention achieves vibration coding by controlling the rhythm, intensity, amplitude, and frequency of vibrations, thereby replacing the defecation reflex response. Patients can understand the changes in their defecation needs within the stoma in real time through different vibration sensations, allowing them to decide on the appropriate course of action.

[0023] This invention features a detachable stoma sealing ring, which can be independently removed for cleaning or replacement, thus preventing cross-infection. Attached Figure Description

[0029] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] This invention provides a wearable smart stoma care cover that can monitor changes in the stoma environment in real time, provide early vibration reminders, and also serve as a massager for the ostomy hernia and a tool for changing temporary ostomy bags.

[0031] Figures 1-3 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of one embodiment of the wearable smart stoma care cover of this utility model. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-3 The wearable smart stoma care cover of this embodiment includes a care belt 100 and a detection cover 200.

[0032] The nursing belt 100 is used to wrap around and bind the patient's waist. The nursing belt 100 has a belt buckle 110 in the middle that is adapted to the stoma. The belt buckle 110 is aligned with the stoma and is used to install the detection cover 200. In this embodiment, the nursing belt 100 is formed by composite printing molding process on elastic breathable woven fabric using TPU flexible material, so that the skin around the stoma can breathe fully and avoid skin redness and ulceration. Moreover, on the side of the belt buckle 110 that contacts the stoma, a stoma sealing ring 120 and a contact soft rubber pad are arranged in sequence. The contact soft rubber pad 130 and the stoma sealing ring 120 adopt a snap-fit ​​structure, which can be squeezed and deformed and then disassembled. Thus, the stoma sealing ring 120 can be removed from the belt buckle 110 for cleaning or replacement, avoiding cross-infection.

[0033] The detection cover 200 is detachably connected to the belt buckle 110, and is used to periodically generate vibrations to press and massage the stoma and monitor the biochemical environment inside the stoma in real time. When excrement overflows from the stoma, the detection cover 200 vibrates to remind the user to promptly address the hygiene issues within the stoma. More specifically, in this embodiment, the detection cover 200 includes an observation cover 210, a cover 220 detachably connected to the observation cover 210, and a stoma monitoring component 230 installed on the inner wall of the cover 220. More specifically, the stoma monitoring component 230 includes a main control board 230a, a MEMS hydrogen sulfide and ammonia odor concentration sensor 230b and a CHT11 temperature and humidity sensor 230c, which are electrically connected to the input terminals of the main control board 230a, respectively, and a 1027 vibration motor 230d. The main control board 230a uses an ESP32 microcontroller chip, and the odor concentration sensor 230b and the temperature and humidity sensor 230c obtain... The system measures real-time dynamic environmental variables within the stoma. When a preset critical value is reached, a PWM modulation signal is emitted to trigger the vibration motor 230d to generate strong and weak tactile vibration amplitudes, reminding the patient to change or manage the stoma's hygiene environment in a timely manner. Preferably, in this embodiment, the odor concentration sensor 230b consists of ammonia and sulfur trioxide sensors. The detection cover 200 also includes a pull ring 240 disposed on the cover 220 and capable of flipping relative to the cover 220. When the detection cover 200 is separated from the belt buckle 110, the pull ring 240 can be pulled outwards to easily pull out the detection cover 200. In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the power supply to the electrical components of the detection cover 200, a power supply battery is also provided inside the detection cover 200. The outer wall of the detection cover 200 is provided with a Type-C charging interface. When the pull ring 240 is in a free state, the pull ring 240 covers the Type-C charging interface, making the Type-C charging interface dustproof and waterproof, and preventing water from getting in.

[0034] Combination Figures 1-3 and Figure 4 The specific steps for using a wearable smart stoma care cover according to this embodiment are as follows:

[0035] S1. The user freely adjusts the nursing belt 100 to a suitable position, aligning the belt buckle 110 with the stoma, and then buckles the nursing belt 100 from the back of the waist.

[0036] S2. Odor concentration sensor 230b and temperature and humidity sensor 230c acquire dynamic environmental variables in the stoma in real time. When the preset critical value is reached, the main control board 230a sends a PWM modulation signal to trigger the vibration motor 230d to generate strong and weak body vibration amplitude, reminding the patient to change or handle the hygienic environment in the stoma in time.

[0037] S3. The user pulls and rotates the pull ring 240 to separate the detection cover 200 from the waist belt buckle 110, then removes the anti-seepage filter paper from the stoma, and connects the disposable ostomy bag to the waist belt buckle 110 before excretion.

[0038] S4. After excretion is completed, remove the disposable stoma bag, and then reconnect the detection cover 200 to the waist belt buckle 110 to re-monitor the stoma environment;

[0039] S5. When it is necessary to clean the stoma sealing ring 120 and the contact soft rubber pad 130, squeeze the stoma sealing ring 120 and the contact soft rubber pad 130 to separate them and remove them for separate cleaning.

[0040] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to embodiments, various modifications can be made and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the embodiments disclosed in this invention can be combined with each other in any way. The lack of an exhaustive description of these combinations in this specification is merely for the sake of brevity and resource conservation. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
