Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of auxiliary products for medical devices, specifically a fetal heart rate monitoring probe fixing kit. Background Technology

[0002] A fetal heart rate monitor is a medical device that non-invasively monitors the heart rate of the fetus and uterine contractions in real time, helping doctors assess the fetus's health and condition during delivery. This device records fetal heart rate and uterine contraction data for doctors to analyze and issues alarms when abnormalities are detected, ensuring timely intervention. Fetal heart rate monitors detect the fetal heartbeat and are designed to be portable for easy use by pregnant women in various situations. They are an important tool for ensuring maternal and infant safety, especially in high-risk pregnancies. The fetal heart rate probe is a crucial component of the monitor. Based on Doppler ultrasound technology, it emits and receives reflected ultrasound signals, calculates the fetal heart rate based on the Doppler effect, and records it as a fetal heart rate curve. When using the fetal heart rate probe, a fixing clip is used to secure the probe to the pregnant woman's body. The clip ensures a tight fit between the probe and the abdomen, preventing movement and maintaining signal continuity and stability. It also allows the pregnant woman some freedom of movement while maintaining probe stability, which is especially important for long-term monitoring.

[0003] Currently, the probes attached to such fetal heart rate monitors are typically secured to the pregnant woman's abdomen using one or two elastic abdominal binders to ensure close contact between the probe and the skin. For example, a comfortable fetal heart rate monitoring and fixation belt for preventing displacement is disclosed in Chinese utility model patent application CN202021362618.X. This belt includes a body with a cavity containing a self-regulating electric heating belt. A connecting strap is sewn to the bottom of the belt body, and a movable strap is fitted around the connecting strap. The fetal heart rate monitor probe is bolted to one side of the movable strap. A Velcro face A is sewn to the bottom of the movable strap, and Velcro face A corresponding to the Velcro face A is glued to both sides of the fetal heart rate monitor probe. The top surface of the belt body has a waterproof layer, and the bottom surface has an antibacterial layer.

[0004] For example, a fetal heart rate monitoring belt for preventing slippage is disclosed in Chinese invention patent application document CN202110436139.0. It includes a belt body with connecting components at both ends. The belt body has an opening in the middle for the pregnant woman's abdomen to protrude from the belt body. The opening divides the middle of the belt body into a fixing part for fitting the upper abdomen of the pregnant woman and a monitoring part for fitting the lower abdomen of the pregnant woman. The opening has a connecting strap for connecting the bottom of the fixing part and the top of the monitoring part. The fixing part has an adjusting component for adjusting the tension of the connecting strap. The monitoring part has a fetal heart rate monitoring probe, a uterine pressure monitoring probe and a belt pressure probe. The belt body also has a control component.

[0005] These types of support straps used with the monitoring probe typically employ a structure that wraps around the outside of the pregnant woman's waist and abdomen. While this method is convenient and feasible for pregnant women who can stand and move freely, the inventors must point out that pregnant women, as a high-risk group, are highly susceptible to injuries from falls, collisions, and other accidents in daily life, potentially leading to critical conditions. This is especially true during the intense pain of childbirth, when a pregnant woman's movement is severely restricted. In such circumstances, it is clearly difficult for a pregnant woman to wear the device. Using traditional straps to secure the fetal heart rate monitoring probe would require repeatedly lifting or turning the pregnant woman, which could easily cause unpredictable secondary injuries and further worsen the already critical situation.

[0006] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a fetal heart rate monitoring probe that significantly reduces the need for movement and turning during use, allowing medical personnel to quickly and efficiently fix the probe relative to the pregnant woman's abdomen. This provides effective protection for the pregnant woman when using the fetal heart rate monitor in special critical situations. Utility Model Content

[0026] The following specific embodiments are merely explanations of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to these embodiments without contributing any inventive step, but such modifications are protected by patent law as long as they fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model.

[0027] This solution is achieved through the following technical means:

[0028] Example: In this embodiment of the application, a fetal heart rate monitoring probe fixing kit is provided. The kit mainly includes a connecting fixing strap 1 for mounting and fixing the monitoring probe, and a connecting patch 2 for attaching the connecting fixing strap 1 to the skin surface. The connecting fixing strap 1 includes a probe positioning section 101 in the middle and connecting sections 102 on both sides of the probe positioning section 101. A reusable tear-off structure 3 is formed between the connecting patch 2 and the connecting sections 102. The lower side of the connecting patch 2 forms an adhesion surface 201 for direct contact with the skin.

[0029] Specifically, the tear-off structure 3 here refers to the instruction manual appendix. Figure 4The cross-sectional schematic diagram shown mainly includes a barbed surface 301 formed on the connecting patch 2 and a fleece surface 302 formed on the connecting section 102. Anti-fouling release paper 202 is also adhered to the bonding surface 201. Regarding the structure of the connecting fixing band 1, the probe positioning section 101 has a probe positioning hole 1011 for inserting a monitoring probe, and a pressure plate 1012 is provided on the outer side of the probe positioning section 101. A fixing strip 1013 is also provided on the probe positioning section 101, located behind the probe positioning hole 1011. One end of the fixing strip 1013 is fixedly connected to the probe positioning section 101, and the main body of the fixing strip 1013 can be adhesively fixed to the probe positioning section 101.

[0030] When using this fetal heart rate monitoring probe fixing kit, firstly, the front end of the monitoring probe needs to be passed through the probe positioning hole 1011 on the connecting fixing band 1 from right rear to front, and then the probe is moved to a position below the pressure plate 1012. Next, the fixing strip 1013 is opened outwards from the movable adhesive side, allowing the rear wiring portion of the monitoring probe to move under the fixing strip 1013. Finally, the fixing strip 1013 is re-adheded, thus completing the connection and fixing of the section near the detection probe. Then, according to the actual fetal heart rate monitoring location, medical personnel peel off the anti-contamination release paper 202 at the bottom of the two connecting patches 2 and attach them to both sides of the pregnant woman's waist. The connecting fixing band 1 is then unfolded, and the connecting sections 102 on both sides are connected and fixed to the aforementioned connecting patches 2 using the tear-off structure 3. At this point, the probe can be conveniently attached and fixed to the pregnant woman's abdomen and the area to be monitored without requiring the pregnant woman to move. Furthermore, when using this kit, whether the probe is temporarily removed or other devices need to be connected and secured, the impact on pregnant women can be minimized, optimizing the comfort of the testing process. More importantly, it can greatly reduce the risk of harm to pregnant women during the testing process in special circumstances.

[0031] Furthermore, considering that pregnant women need to undergo multiple and prolonged fetal heart rate monitoring during treatment or examination, the connecting patch 2 needs to remain attached to the user's skin surface during both the examination process and the period of multiple monitoring. Therefore, in order to avoid discomfort such as rashes and itching caused by prolonged sealing, the connecting patch 2 in this embodiment of the application is also provided with several breathable holes 4.

[0032] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various equivalent modifications or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, and these modifications or substitutions should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
