Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical devices, specifically an upper limb elevation restraint device. Background Technology
[0002] In clinical nursing practice, we often encounter patients who are confused or agitated during surgery and anesthesia. These patients are prone to falling out of bed, injuries, unplanned accidental extubation, and inability to cooperate with surgery. Therefore, necessary safety measures should be taken to restrain and protect these patients. Traditional upper limb restraint devices commonly include sleeve and glove types. A search of the upper limb restraint device disclosed in application number CN201920137938.6 describes a hand support board, which is a non-bendable board. The upper surface of the hand support board has finger restraints, palm restraints, and wrist restraints. There are five finger restraints, each corresponding to one of the five interphalangeal joints of the fingers. The palm restraints correspond to the four interphalangeal joints of the front of the palm. The wrist restraints correspond to the carpal joints. After the patient's hand is put into the upper limb restraint device, the acupoints of the second metacarpal bone of the hand are exposed. The hand support board has an insertion port at the wrist, into which a wrist acupoint massage pad is inserted. The back of the hand support board has a fixing strap or buckle for securing the hand support board.
[0003] This restraint device can restrain the patient's hands and facilitate medical staff to observe blood circulation in the extremities. However, the above description still has the following defects in actual use: it is not convenient to observe the blood status of the patient's palms when using this restraint device, and it lacks the function of limiting the patient's upper limb within a certain range, making the patient uncomfortable during the treatment restraint process. Therefore, it is necessary to design a more practical upper limb elevation restraint device. Utility Model Content

[0025] In practical use: The patient's palm is placed from the arm restraint part 1 into the first palm part 3 and the second palm part 31. The first palm part 3 and the second palm part 31 are engaged and fixed with the chain head 33 and the two zippers 32 to restrain the patient's palm. At the same time, the decompression ball 34 of the first palm part 3 can provide the patient with fist clenching exercise to promote blood circulation. The mesh surface design of the first palm part 3 and the second palm part 31 and the zipper design 32 facilitate the observation of the patient's condition and the detection of blood oxygen saturation, as well as prevent the patient from pulling out the tube.
[0026] Please see Figure 3 Two curved pads 4 are provided on both sides of the bottom of the arm restraint part 1, the elbow bending part 11, and the elbow restraint part 2. Two sets of adjustment holes 41 are provided on the sides of the two curved pads 4. Two snap-fit connectors 42 are connected to the inner walls of the two sets of adjustment holes 41. One end of each snap-fit connector 42 is threaded with a limit ring 43. The other end of each snap-fit connector 42 is fixedly connected to the first fixing belt 44 and the second fixing belt 45 respectively. The other end of the first fixing belt 44 and the second fixing belt 45 can be installed and connected to the bed frame.
[0027] An auxiliary bending block 12 is provided at the bottom edge of the arm restraint part 1. Through holes 13 are provided at both ends of the auxiliary bending block 12. A connecting shaft 14 is rotatably provided on the inner wall of the through hole 13. The two ends of the connecting shaft 14 are fixedly connected to the surfaces of the two bending pads 4.
[0028] In practical use: When the patient raises their upper limb, the elbow bending part 11, in conjunction with the arm restraint part 1, causes the arm restraint part 1 to bend and move. The arm restraint part 1 causes the bottom auxiliary bending block 12 to rotate on the surface of the connecting shaft 14 between the two bending pads 4, which assists in limiting the bending process. At the same time, the two bending pads 4 bend accordingly. The positions of the first fixing strap 44 and the second fixing strap 45 are adjusted according to the range of the patient's upper limb raising. The first fixing strap 44 and the second fixing strap 45, together with the snap connector 42 and the limiting ring 43, facilitate the installation and removal of the two bending pads 4. The length of the first fixing strap 44 is longer than that of the second fixing strap 45, thereby further limiting the raising angle of the patient's upper limb, providing comfort for the patient during the restraint process while promoting the patient's limb function exercise.
[0029] Please see Figure 2 The surfaces of the first palm part 3 and the second palm part 31 are both designed with a mesh pattern, and the decompression ball 34 is bonded to the inner wall of the first palm part 3.
[0030] In practical use: the mesh design on the surface of the first palm part 3 and the second palm part 31, as well as the zipper design 32, facilitate the observation of the patient's condition and the detection of blood oxygen saturation, and prevent the patient from pulling out the tube.
[0031] Please see Figure 1 Two first mounting blocks 15 are provided on both sides of the arm restraint part 1. The surfaces of the two first mounting blocks 15 are fixedly connected with first elastic straps 16. The surfaces of the other ends of the two first elastic straps 16 are provided with Velcro. The surfaces of the two Velcro straps are bonded to the Velcro straps on the surfaces of the other two first mounting blocks 15.
[0032] Two second mounting blocks 21 are provided on both sides of the elbow restraint part 2. The surfaces of the two second mounting blocks 21 are fixedly connected with second elastic straps 22. The surfaces of the other ends of the two second elastic straps 22 are provided with Velcro. The surfaces of the two Velcro straps are bonded to the Velcro straps on the surfaces of the other two second mounting blocks 21.
[0033] In practical use: the patient's upper limb is placed in the elbow restraint part 2, the elbow bending part 11 and the arm restraint part 1. The two sets of first mounting blocks 15, together with the first elastic strap 16 and Velcro, elastically limit the arm. The two sets of second mounting blocks 21, together with the second elastic strap 22 and Velcro, elastically limit the elbow, thus completing the fixation of the upper limb.
[0034] Please see Figure 1 The length of the first fixing strap 44 is longer than the length of the second fixing strap 45, and both are made of tensile and tough material.
[0035] In practical use: the first fixing strap 44, made of tensile and tough material, is longer than the second fixing strap 45, which makes it easier to limit the range of elevation of the patient's upper limb.
[0036] Please see Figure 1 The inner walls of the arm restraint part 1, the elbow bending part 11 and the elbow restraint part 2 are all provided with several ventilation holes 17.
[0037] In practical use: several ventilation holes 17 on the inner walls of the arm restraint part 1, the elbow bending part 11 and the elbow restraint part 2 facilitate the maintenance of the breathability of the upper limb skin after the restraint structure is installed.
[0038] In use, the patient's palm is inserted from the arm restraint part 1 into the first palm part 3 and the second palm part 31. The first palm part 3 and the second palm part 31 are engaged and fixed using the chain head 33 and two zippers 32, thus restraining the patient's palm. Simultaneously, the decompression ball 34 of the first palm part 3 allows the patient to clench their fist, promoting blood circulation. The mesh surface design of the first palm part 3 and the second palm part 31, along with the zipper 32 design, facilitates observation of the patient's condition and monitoring of blood oxygen saturation, and prevents extubation. When the patient raises their upper limb, the elbow flexor 11 moves the arm restraint part 1 in a bending motion, thus restraining the arm. The restraint unit 1 drives the bottom auxiliary bending block 12 to rotate on the surface of the connecting shaft 14 between the two bending pads 4, which assists in limiting the bending process. At the same time, the two bending pads 4 bend accordingly. The positions of the first fixing strap 44 and the second fixing strap 45 are adjusted according to the height of the patient's upper limb. The first fixing strap 44 and the second fixing strap 45, together with the snap connector 42 and the limiting ring 43, facilitate the installation and removal of the two bending pads 4. The length of the first fixing strap 44 is longer than that of the second fixing strap 45, which further limits the height of the patient's upper limb. While promoting the patient's limb function exercise, it also provides comfort for the patient during the restraint process.
