Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of electrocardiograph technology, and in particular relates to an electrocardiograph that prevents cables from getting tangled. Background Technology
[0002] An electrocardiograph (ECG) is a medical device whose main function is to record the bioelectrical signals generated by the human heart during activity. These signals are collected by electrodes placed on the surface of the body, typically in standard lead positions such as limb and chest leads. When the heart beats, it generates electrical activity that can be conducted to the body surface through tissues. The ECG detects these weak electrical signals and converts them into a visual waveform, known as an electrocardiogram (ECG). The ECG waveform shows the heart's electrical activity over a specific time period, including the P wave, QRS complex, and T wave. These waveforms are crucial for diagnosing heart diseases. ECGs play a vital role in the diagnosis, treatment monitoring, and research of heart disease. They help doctors assess the health of the heart, identify potential heart problems such as arrhythmias and myocardial infarction, and provide a basis for developing appropriate treatment plans. The ECG is an indispensable diagnostic tool in medical institutions.
[0003] Currently, electrocardiographs (ECGs) used in hospitals have the following problems: 1. The ECG machines lack lead position diagrams, making it difficult for newly hired nurses, interns, and nurses unfamiliar with the operation to accurately identify the connection positions and order of each lead, thus affecting the accuracy and diagnostic effectiveness of the ECG; 2. The ECG machines have numerous and long leads (10 in total), which appear messy when stored and are prone to tangling during use. The large number of leads and their tendency to knot take considerable time to organize, reducing work efficiency; 3. The ECG leads lack dedicated fixing devices and placement areas, leading to haphazard placement by operators after use. This makes the leads susceptible to damage from compression, folding, and other external forces, reducing their lifespan. Randomly placed leads may also pose safety hazards such as electric shock and short circuits. Therefore, it is necessary to provide an ECG machine that prevents cable tangling to solve these problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical content of this utility model is to provide an electrocardiograph that prevents cables from getting tangled.
[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides an electrocardiograph (ECG) machine designed to prevent cable tangling. The ECG machine includes a mounting frame, a mounting plate on top of the mounting frame, the ECG machine mounted on top of the mounting plate, a fixing bracket on the side of the mounting plate, an indicator plate on the front of the fixing bracket, a first wire clamp on the back of the fixing bracket, a fixing plate on the mounting frame, a second wire clamp on the side of the fixing plate, a main circuit board on top of the mounting plate, and four sets of limb leads and six sets of chest leads connected to the bottom of the main circuit board.
[0006] As a further solution of this utility model, the electrocardiograph is fixedly installed on the top of the mounting plate. The main circuit board is electrically connected to the electrocardiograph. Four sets of limb leads and six sets of chest leads are led out from the bottom of the main circuit board. The limb leads and chest leads are all wrapped with a mobile phone data cable protective cord to prevent the limb leads and chest leads from getting tangled and knotted, so as to facilitate daily use by medical staff.
[0007] As a further solution of this utility model, the fixing frame is configured as an inverted U-shaped structure. Both sides of the bottom of the fixing frame are fixedly connected to the back of the mounting plate by fixing bolts. The indicator plate clearly shows the connection positions of the limb and chest wires to the patient's limbs. At the same time, different limb and chest wires are wrapped with mobile phone data cable protective straps of different colors. The indicator plate uses the corresponding colors of the limb and chest wires to mark the connection positions of the limb and chest wires to the patient's limbs, so that medical staff can quickly and correctly install the limb and chest wires to the patient's body parts according to the instructions on the indicator plate.
[0008] As a further solution of this utility model, six sets of first wire clamps are symmetrically installed on the top back of the fixing frame. The first wire clamps are provided with slots that are adapted to the size of the connection port of the chest wire. Four sets of second wire clamps are symmetrically installed on the side of the fixing plate. The four sets of second wire clamps are combined in pairs. The second wire clamps are provided with slots that are adapted to the size of the connection port of the limb wire. The four sets of limb wires are clamped in pairs on the side of the fixing plate in the order of right hand → left hand → left foot → right foot, thereby storing and organizing the limb wires for use by medical staff at any time.
[0009] Compared with related technologies, the electrocardiograph provided by this utility model that prevents cable tangling has the following beneficial effects:
[0010] 1. This utility model features a U-shaped mounting bracket installed on the side of the mounting plate, with an indicator plate mounted on the bracket. The indicator plate clearly shows the connection positions of the limb and chest wires to the patient's limbs. Different limb and chest wires are wrapped with different colored protective straps for mobile phone data cables. The indicator plate uses the corresponding colors of the limb and chest wires to mark the connection positions to the patient's limbs, allowing medical staff to quickly and correctly install the limb and chest wires to the patient's body parts according to the instructions on the indicator plate. This is very suitable for newly hired medical staff and can greatly improve the operation speed of medical staff.
[0011] 2. This utility model uses a mobile phone data cable protective cord to wrap both the limb and chest wires, preventing them from tangling or knotting. This facilitates daily use by medical staff. Six sets of first wire clips are installed on the side of the mounting bracket, each with a slot that matches the size of the chest wire connection port. This allows the six chest wires to be placed on the back of the mounting bracket for easy storage. Four sets of second wire clips are installed on the side of the mounting plate, each with a slot that matches the size of the limb wire connection port for easier storage. This secures and stores both the limb and chest wires, making them convenient for medical staff and preventing equipment damage. Attached Figure Description
