[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model are described clearly and completely below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0026] Unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used in this invention shall have the ordinary meaning understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terms "first," "second," "third," "fourth," and similar words used in this invention do not indicate any order, quantity, or importance, but are merely used to distinguish different components. Terms such as "comprising" or "including" mean that the element or object preceding the word encompasses the elements or objects listed following the word and their equivalents, without excluding other elements or objects. Terms such as "connected" or "linked" are not limited to physical or mechanical connections, but can include electrical connections, whether direct or indirect.

[0027] For ease of description, spatial relative terms may be used in the text to describe the relationship of one element or feature relative to another element or feature as shown in the figure. These relative terms include, for example, "inside," "outside," "middle," "outer," "below," "above," etc. Such spatial relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation, other than those depicted in the figure.

[0028] Currently, traction boots used in clinical practice are generally divided into two types. One type has only an adjustable sole plate, with the boot body and sole plate made of the same material, a hard plastic shell, without a boot cover design. Clinical use requires placing cotton pads in the sole plate of the boot body and then wrapping it with bandages, which increases the cost of clinical consumables. The operation process is long and labor-intensive, and the tightness of the bandage varies from person to person, making it inconvenient to adjust. The other type has a sole plate integrated with a leather boot cover. The sole plate is fixed and cannot be adjusted according to the size and width of the patient's foot. The boot cover is a shoelace type, and the inner lining of the boot cover is relatively hard, which is not conducive to skin protection.

[0029] Based on the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an adjustable orthopedic traction boot that prevents pressure injuries. Its sole plate can be adjusted according to the physiological structure of the patient's foot to avoid poor fit or excessive tightness caused by different foot sizes and widths.

[0030] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, the adjustable orthopedic traction boot for preventing pressure injuries according to this utility model includes:

[0031] A first base plate 1 and a second base plate 2 are fastened together by bolts at their first ends and detachably connected together by a knob at their second ends. A first adjusting plate 3 and a second adjusting plate 4 are sandwiched between the first base plate 1 and the second base plate 2. The first ends of the first adjusting plate 3 and the second adjusting plate 4 are rotatably connected by bolts at their first ends and elongated holes at their second ends. A knob passes through the elongated holes to detachably connect the first adjusting plate 3 and the second adjusting plate 4 to the second base plate 2. A boot cover 5 is provided on the first base plate 1 to accommodate the patient's foot and ankle.

[0032] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, when the patient's foot is relatively wide, the distance between the first adjustment plate 3 and the second adjustment plate 4 needs to be increased. Loosen the knob and disengage it from the elongated hole 7, then manually adjust the first adjustment plate 3 and the second adjustment plate 4 to increase the distance between them so as to accommodate patients with wider feet. Similarly, when the patient's foot is relatively small, loosen the knob, manually adjust the first adjustment plate 3 and the second adjustment plate 4 so that they overlap, and then tighten the knob.

[0033] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the boot cover 5 is provided with an inner lining layer, which includes a bottom insole portion, an instep portion, and an ankle portion.

[0034] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, in a specific embodiment of this utility model, the bottom insole is a memory foam layer, which satisfies the patient's comfort while ensuring that the surgical traction force is not affected.

[0035] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, in a specific embodiment of this utility model, the dorsum of the foot and the ankle joint are covered with a pressure-resistant dressing layer to prevent skin pressure damage caused by excessive traction force.

[0036] Furthermore, pressure injury protection dressings include foam dressings, hydrocolloid dressings, hydrogel dressings, and silicone dressings.

[0037] Furthermore, the foam dressing layer is a polyurethane dressing layer, the hydrocolloid dressing layer is a sodium carboxymethyl cellulose dressing layer, and the silicone dressing layer is a silicone gel dressing layer.

[0038] like Figure 3As shown, the boot cover 5 is equipped with hooks 6 for hanging shoelaces, avoiding the time wasted by repeatedly putting on and pulling the shoelaces.

[0039] Further as Figure 3 As shown, boot cover 5 is a soft leather boot cover, and the toe area of ​​boot cover 5 has an open design.

[0040] The traction boot sole designed in this invention can be adjusted to fit the physiological structure of the patient's foot, avoiding poor fit or excessive tightness caused by different foot sizes and widths. The boot cover is made of soft leather, and the insole inside the lining is made of thin memory foam, which not only meets the patient's comfort but also ensures that the traction force during surgery is not affected. The instep and ankle areas inside the boot are covered with pressure-resistant dressings to prevent skin pressure damage during excessive traction. At the same time, the shoelaces are designed with hooks to avoid the time wasted by repeated putting on and pulling.

[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
