Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of medical devices and equipment, and in particular to a DSA bedside fixation frame for ECMO. Background Technology

[0002] As a life support technology for patients with severe cardiopulmonary failure, the stability of the ECMO tubing system directly affects treatment outcomes and patient safety. In current technologies, ECMO is integrated with a specific mobile cart, and its position is adjusted by changing the position of the cart.

[0003] However, during or after surgery, placing an ECMO machine at the bedside takes up a significant amount of space, hindering the surgeon's work and post-operative care. Furthermore, accidental bumping of the ECMO by medical staff can easily affect the stability of the tubing system. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention provides a DSA bedside fixation frame for ECMO, which can be used to fix ECMO equipment, thereby reducing the space occupied by the equipment in the operating room. Simultaneously, medical staff can adjust the ECMO to the most suitable position by changing the position of the ECMO bedside fixation frame, thus maintaining the stability of the tubing system.

[0005] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] The ECMO DSA bedside support includes a shelf, a lower U-shaped enclosure strip, and a locking strip; the lower U-shaped enclosure strip is detachably fixed to the lower end of the shelf; the edge of the bed board is fixedly clamped between the locking strip and the lower U-shaped enclosure strip, and the locking strip is detachably installed at the lower end of the lower U-shaped enclosure strip.

[0007] Preferably, the lower U-shaped enclosure strip has a fixing groove at its lower end that matches the edge of the bed board.

[0008] Preferably, the ECMO DSA bedside fixation frame also includes a rotating handle, and the locking bar is screwed to the lower end of the lower U-shaped enclosure bar via the rotating handle.

[0009] Preferably, there are two rotating handles, one located at the end of the locking bar facing away from the fixing groove, and the other located at the end of the locking bar close to the fixing groove.

[0010] Preferably, the ECMO DSA bedside fixation frame also includes an upper U-shaped enclosure strip, with a shelf fixedly clamped between the upper and lower U-shaped enclosure strips.

[0011] Preferably, the upper U-shaped enclosure strip is provided with a nut groove, and the upper U-shaped enclosure strip, the lower U-shaped enclosure strip and the edge of the support plate are all provided with through threaded holes. After the bolt passes through the threaded hole, it is screwed and fixed to the nut embedded in the nut groove.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages or beneficial effects of the technical solution of this application include:

[0013] 1. Enhance the stability of ECMO tubing: By adding this fixation frame to the patient's bedside, the ECMO can be placed in the most suitable position for the patient's treatment, thereby avoiding contact with the ECMO tubing system during treatment or nursing care, which could affect the patient's treatment.

[0014] 2. Reduced ECMO space occupation: Placing the ECMO in a fixed frame beside the patient's bed increases the working area for medical staff, facilitating surgery or nursing care. At the same time, medical staff can avoid significant collisions with the ECMO during movement, preventing instability of its tubing. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The following detailed description of the embodiments of this application, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, will provide a thorough understanding of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve corresponding technical effects, enabling its implementation. The embodiments of this application and the various features within them can be combined with each other without conflict, and all resulting technical solutions are within the protection scope of this application.

[0020] It should be clearly stated that the embodiments described below are merely some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0021] Example 1: This example provides a detailed explanation of the DSA bedside fixation device design for ECMO:

[0022] ECMO DSA bedside fixation frame includes a shelf 2, a lower U-shaped enclosure strip 3 and a locking strip 4;

[0023] The lower U-shaped enclosure strip 3 is detachably fixed to the lower end of the shelf 2; the edge 6 of the bed board is fixedly clamped between the locking strip 4 and the lower U-shaped enclosure strip 3, and the locking strip 4 is detachably installed at the lower end of the lower U-shaped enclosure strip 3.

[0024] The ECMO is placed on the support plate 2. Since the edge of the bed has a raised edge, the edge 6 of the bed board is clamped by the locking strip 4 and the lower U-shaped enclosure strip 3, so that the support plate 2 is stably fixed to the side of the bed to support the weight of the ECMO itself.

[0025] During the above process, medical staff can adjust the position of the shelf 2 installed on the edge 6 of the bed board according to the actual situation, so as to avoid the area where medical staff move around.

[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, the lower U-shaped enclosure strip 3 has a fixing groove at its lower end that matches the edge 6 of the bed board. The locking strip 4 is screwed onto the lower end of the lower U-shaped enclosure strip 3 by rotating the handle 5. Since actual hospital beds have a raised edge, the shape of the fixing groove can match it. Figure 3 When the locking strip 4 is tightened by turning the handle 5, it effectively restricts downward movement along the edge 6 of the bed board. The fixing groove itself restricts lateral movement along the edge 6 of the bed board. Therefore, the combination of these two mechanisms secures the lower U-shaped enclosing strip 3 to the edge 6 of the bed board. Conversely, to disassemble, the handle 5 can be turned to loosen the locking strip 4, allowing the lower U-shaped enclosing strip 3 to slide along the edge 6 of the bed board.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, there are two rotating handles 5, one of which is located at the end of the locking bar 4 facing away from the fixing groove, and the other is located at the end of the locking bar 4 close to the fixing groove.

[0028] This embodiment also includes an upper U-shaped enclosure strip 1, and a support plate 2 is fixedly clamped between the upper U-shaped enclosure strip 1 and the lower U-shaped enclosure strip 3. The upper U-shaped enclosure strip 1 is provided with a nut groove, and the edges of the upper U-shaped enclosure strip 1, the lower U-shaped enclosure strip 3 and the support plate 2 are all provided with through threaded holes. After the bolt passes through the threaded hole, it is screwed and fixed to the nut embedded in the nut groove.

[0029] After the upper U-shaped enclosure strip 1 and the lower U-shaped enclosure strip 3 are fixed together with bolts, the middle support plate 2 can be clamped, thereby preventing the instrument from falling due to the loose connection between the lower U-shaped enclosure strip 3 and the support plate 2.

[0030] The ECMO DSA bedside fixation frame has been applied inside the department, and its materials are based on the actual product image.

[0031] Example 2: Post-cardiac surgery ICU care

[0032] Scenario Description: A patient is transferred to the ICU after undergoing heart surgery and requires continuous ECMO support. Traditional ECMO carts occupy a large amount of space next to the bed, affecting medical staff's ability to perform tasks such as wound dressing changes and tubing checks. Solution: 1. Insert the lower U-shaped retaining strip of the fixing frame into the protruding edge of the bed (matching the fixing groove), and tighten the locking strip by turning the handle to firmly clamp the edge of the bed board.

[0033] 2. The support plate is placed on the outside of the bed, the ECMO machine is placed on it, and the tubing system is fixed along the bed rail.

[0034] The bedside activity space has increased by 40%, making it easier for multiple people to work together to provide care.

[0035] ECMO tubing is suspended and unobstructed, reducing the risk of collision (actual measurements show a 70% reduction in tubing sway).

[0036] Example 3: Emergency Department Resuscitation for Multiple Trauma

[0037] Scenario Description: A patient with multiple injuries and respiratory failure requires simultaneous ECMO placement and closed chest drainage in the emergency department within a limited space. The mobile ECMO cart is obstructing access to the equipment. Solution:

[0038] 1. Utilizing the quick-assembly and disassembly design of the mounting bracket: Assemble the upper / lower U-shaped enclosure strips to the shelf using bolts (align the threaded holes with the nut slots for fixing). Bed edge clamping is completed within 30 seconds (simultaneous tightening of the dual rotating handles).

[0039] 2. The ECMO machine is placed on a shelf at the same height as the operating table, with the tubing running in a straight line towards the patient's puncture point.

[0040] 3. When the patient needs to be transferred after the emergency treatment, the handle can be released to disassemble it, and it can be moved synchronously with the hospital bed.

[0041] Results: The width of the emergency access channel increased by 50%, facilitating the entry and exit of large equipment (such as ultrasound machines). The support frame can bear a weight of >50kg (actual measurement), and no displacement occurred during ECMO operation.
