Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical device technology, specifically relating to a wearable vest-style abdominal binder after axillary lymph node dissection. Background Technology

[0002] Axillary lymph node dissection is commonly used to examine and treat diseases involving damaged axillary lymph nodes, such as breast cancer, melanoma, and lymphoma. The main purpose of this surgery is to remove any cancer cells that may be present in the axillary lymph nodes, thereby preventing the spread and metastasis of cancer cells. Post-surgery, a local abdominal binder is applied for pressure. Traditional abdominal binders are often used for patients after abdominal surgery, specifically employing three fixation straps simultaneously to adhere and secure the abdominal wound. For patients after axillary lymph node dissection, this pressure method also requires immobilizing the affected upper limb, making it difficult to raise the limb. Traditional abdominal binders completely wrap the limb, which presents problems such as inaccurate and improper fixation, difficulty in changing dressings, and difficulty in observing the affected limb and post-operative functional exercises. These issues can affect post-operative comfort and recovery. Furthermore, loosening of the binder or inaccurate pressure application can also lead to unsatisfactory recovery results. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a wearable vest-style abdominal binder after axillary lymph node dissection to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0005] A wearable vest-style abdominal binder is provided after axillary lymph node dissection, comprising an abdominal binder body and a reinforcing band. The abdominal binder body is a vest body with a sling body. One end of the reinforcing band is wrapped around one side of the armpit and then detachably connected to the other end at the upper arm near the shoulder on the other side. The reinforcing band is wrapped around the outer periphery of the abdominal binder body.

[0006] As described above, a vest-style abdominal binder can be worn after axillary lymph node dissection, wherein the front middle area of ​​the reinforcing band is detachably connected to the front upper middle area of ​​the vest.

[0007] As described above, a vest-style abdominal binder can be worn after axillary lymph node dissection, wherein the temporary fixation position of the reinforcing binder is adjustable vertically.

[0008] As described above, a vest-style abdominal binder can be worn after axillary lymph node dissection. The binder body has a detachable connecting end, through which the binder body can be opened and closed in the length direction.

[0009] As described above, a vest-style abdominal binder can be worn after axillary lymph node dissection, wherein both the main body of the abdominal binder and the reinforcing band are made of elastic, skin-friendly fabric.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model's technical solution are:

[0011] 1. Wearable vest-style abdominal binder is easy to wear and convenient for patients to use. Because it is easy to wear, the dressing change process is more convenient and can reduce the burden on medical staff.

[0012] 2. Reasonable local fixation ensures the patient's comfort and functionality during the wearing process, facilitates postoperative limb function exercises, and is more conducive to accelerating the patient's recovery process.

[0013] 3. The external adjustable reinforcement belt can better and more accurately fix the position and increase the effective pressure effect. The position can be adjusted to accurately apply pressure to the area, effectively reducing problems such as the abdominal belt becoming loose or the pressure position being inaccurate, which may lead to unsatisfactory results.

[0014] 4. The non-full-coverage structure makes it easy to observe the patient's bleeding, effusion, and limb edema, which helps to detect abnormalities in a timely manner and make adjustments. It also allows medical staff to monitor and adjust the patient's condition in real time during the recovery process, thereby promptly identifying and resolving potential problems.
