Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model pertains to postoperative auxiliary medical devices, specifically relating to a postoperative neck care towel. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, common posterior cervical spine surgeries in clinical practice include laminectomy, discectomy, vertebral fusion, posterior decompression, cervical discectomy, and cervical tumor resection.

[0003] Laminectomy is typically used to relieve nerve compression and is suitable for patients with spinal stenosis or herniated discs compressing nerves. Discotomy may be considered for cervical radiculopathy when conservative treatment is ineffective. Vertebral fusion is used to stabilize the cervical spine and prevent further damage, and may be suitable for cases of multi-segmental degenerative changes or fractures.

[0004] It's also important to pay attention to the indications and contraindications for surgery, such as the presence of severe osteoporosis, infection, or other systemic diseases that could affect the surgical outcome. Furthermore, the risks and postoperative recovery rates may vary depending on the type of surgery, so the focus should be on the indications.

[0005] Because of the special location of the incision in cervical spine surgery, the incision is mostly located between the occipital bone and the neck. This is the area where women have the most hair on their heads and men have the most beards. Therefore, some hair will get stuck between the dressing and the skin, making it difficult for the wound dressing and drainage tube to adhere firmly to the skin.

[0006] However, in clinical practice, the only options are to use adhesive tape to fix the wound multiple times, or to use alcohol to remove the grease before fixing it with adhesive tape. Currently, there is no good way to solve the problem of wound dressing falling off and drainage tubes coming off due to physiological curves. Post-cervical spine surgery patients have special wound locations, sweat a lot, and have many drainage tubes, making it difficult to fix them with adhesive tape multiple times. Clinically, fixing the tubes forward often feels like it affects the patient's swallowing, while fixing them backward or to the side makes them prone to kinking or twisting, and it is also inconvenient to put on and take off clothes, and the tubes are easy to be pulled out when putting on and taking off clothes. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a post-operative care towel for the neck to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0009] A postoperative neck care towel includes a back panel and long and short covers respectively disposed on both sides of the back panel. The back panel includes a back collar panel and a back panel disposed below the back collar panel. The bottom edge of the back collar panel is connected to the back panel. A tube opening is provided between the back collar panel and the back panel. Pockets are provided on both sides of the back panel. The back panel is fixedly connected to the long and short covers respectively on both sides. Connecting pieces I are provided at the overlapping positions of the long and short covers with the back collar panel. A long cover limiting loop is provided at the free end of the short cover panel. A tube limiting loop is provided at the long cover panel near the back collar panel of the long cover panel.

[0010] To further realize this utility model, the back collar piece is quadrilateral, the back back piece is arc-shaped on the side away from the back collar piece, and the long and short overlays are strip-shaped, extending obliquely upwards towards both sides of the back side piece.

[0011] To further realize this utility model, the long cover plate limiting loop is disposed at the free end of the short cover plate and is perpendicular to the short side of the short cover plate.

[0012] To further realize this utility model, the pipeline limiting loop is perpendicular to the long side of the long cover.

[0013] To further realize this utility model, a connector II is provided on the pipe opening.

[0014] To further realize this utility model, the connecting part I adopts a matching buckle hole and a button.

[0015] To further realize this utility model, the connector II is a zipper.

[0016] In order to further realize this utility model,

[0017] The advantages of this utility model compared to the prior art are as follows:

[0018] In this invention, by threading a long dressing through a long dressing retaining loop on a short dressing, the invention can be wrapped around the patient's neck like a scarf. This easily detachable structure facilitates patient treatment and dressing changes. The structure and length of the long dressing create a certain weight on the patient's chest, thereby pulling the back dressing to prevent it from falling backward or even slipping down, especially when an indwelling tube is placed in a pocket. The tube insertion port facilitates the removal of the indwelling tube from the back dressing, making it easy to clean any fluid accumulation inside the tube. The tube retaining loop is used to thread the indwelling tube and limit its movement, preventing it from sliding freely and causing dangerous situations such as dragging. The long and short dressings are connected or separated from the back collar piece via connector I. When connector I is open, the back collar piece can be flipped open for easy dressing changes, treatment, and wound observation. When connector I is connected, the back collar piece stands up under the pull of the long and short dressings, wrapping around the back of the neck. This not only prevents the wound and dressing from being pulled or rubbed but also provides some warmth. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0027] like Figure 1-2As shown, a postoperative neck care towel includes a back panel 1 and long coverings 2 and short coverings 3 respectively disposed on both sides of the back panel 1. The back panel 1 includes a back collar piece 1-1 and a back panel 1-2 disposed below the back collar piece 1-1. The bottom edge of the back collar piece 1-1 is connected to the back panel 1-2. The back collar piece 1-1 is quadrilateral. The side of the back panel 1-2 away from the back collar piece 1-1 is arc-shaped. The long coverings 2 and short coverings 3 are strip-shaped and extend diagonally upwards towards both sides of the back panel 1. A through-hole 4 is provided between the back collar piece 1-1 and the back panel 1-2. A connector II 9 is provided on the through-hole 4. 9. A zipper is used. Pockets 5 are provided on both sides of the back panel 1-2. The two sides of the back panel 1-2 are fixedly connected to the long cover 2 and the short cover 3 respectively. The long cover 2 and the short cover 3 are respectively provided with matching connectors I6 at the overlapping positions with the back collar panel 1-1. The connectors I6 use matching buttonholes 6-1 and buttons 6-2. The free end of the short cover 3 is provided with a long cover limiting loop 7. The long cover limiting loop 7 is located at the free end of the short cover 3 and is perpendicular to the short side of the short cover 3. The long cover 2 is provided with a tube limiting loop 8 near the back collar panel 1-1. The tube limiting loop 8 is perpendicular to the long side of the long cover 2.

[0028] When the patient needs to get up and move around, such as Figure 3-5 As shown, first separate the buttons 6-2 from the buttonholes 6-1, then place the back panel 1 on the patient's back, and drape the long overlay 2 and short overlay 3 over the patient's shoulders respectively. Insert the free end of the long overlay 2 into the long overlay limiting loop 7, adjust the position of the back panel 1-2 so that the junction of the back collar panel 1-1 and the back panel 1-2 is basically at the base of the patient's neck, pull the long overlay 2 to make the back panel 1-2 fit tightly against the patient's back, then pull up the back collar panel 1-1 and insert the buttons 6-2 into the buttonholes 6-1 respectively, so that the back collar panel 1-1 stands up and covers the back of the patient's neck, and the long overlay 2 and short overlay 3 cover the sides of the patient's neck. The length of the long overlay 2 can be adjusted according to the patient's neck circumference.

[0029] When treatment / dressing changes are required, such as Figure 5 As shown, opening both connectors I6 and pulling apart connector II9 exposes the patient's neck wound / dressing, facilitating dressing changes. If the posterior cervical drainage tube needs delayed removal, the indwelling tube can be passed through the gap after pulling apart connector II9. Connector II9 should be pulled up appropriately according to the diameter of the indwelling tube to limit its movement and reduce the probability of slippage. The drainage bag is then placed inside the pocket 5 outside the back panel 1-2, effectively preventing kinking or twisting of the drainage bag and tubing, and also preventing backflow of drainage fluid that could cause infection.

[0030] When it is necessary to apply a water bag to the patient's neck for pressure, cold or hot compresses, the water bag is placed inside the pocket 5 inside the back panel 1-2. This achieves the aforementioned effects and also isolates the patient's wound skin from the water bag.

[0031] When the drainage tube placed after surgery is anterior cervical approach, the drainage tube is passed through the tube limiting loop 8 and then wrapped around to the pocket 5 outside the back panel 1-2 for storage. This can reduce the risk of tube dislodgement and kinking or twisting of the drainage tube, and will not affect the patient's activity.
