Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical equipment technology, and in particular to a birthing bag for reducing contamination. Background Technology
[0002] During childbirth, the lithotomy position (legs bent and abducted, placed on the delivery bed frame) is often used. While this position facilitates assisted delivery, the descent of the fetal head compresses the rectum, easily causing uncontrolled defecation. According to clinical statistics, approximately 85% of women pass stool during childbirth.
[0003] Utility model patent with publication number "CN209611491U" discloses a disposable amniotic fluid and feces collection bag for natural childbirth. This application places a fixing frame below the mother's anus, with the thigh positioned between the main and secondary elastic bands. The main collection bag is located in front of the groin. The secondary and main release papers are removed, allowing the main adhesive layer on the fixing band to adhere to the secondary adhesive layer on the secondary elastic band, thus securing the entire device to the mother. The main and secondary collection bags facilitate the simultaneous collection of amniotic fluid and feces expelled during childbirth.
[0004] However, this application involves fixing the entire device to the mother, which could easily cause discomfort. For example, the combination of multiple components such as the fixing frame, main / secondary elastic bands, and main / secondary collection bags in the design may put pressure on the mother's abdomen, groin, and other areas, which could easily lead to skin pressure injuries or circulatory problems, especially during prolonged labor. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a childbirth soil-reducing bag, which solves the problem that the existing fecal collection bag assembly, when installed on the mother, causes discomfort to her body.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a childbirth soiling reduction bag, comprising: a pressure plate, a sterile towel, and a storage bag. One side of the opening of the storage bag is detachably connected to the pressure plate, and the other side of the opening of the storage bag is fixedly connected to the sterile towel. The pressure plate is placed under the mother, and an adhesive strip is fixedly connected to the sterile towel and is attached to the mother's body.
[0007] A support member is connected to the pressure plate, and the bottom of the storage bag abuts against the fixed end of the support member.
[0008] This design, by placing the pressure plate under the mother and securing the sterile towel to her body with adhesive strips, creates an opening in the storage bag below the mother's anus. The entire device does not need to be fixed to the mother's body as a whole, reducing local pressure and improving comfort.
[0009] Furthermore, the support member includes at least two hooks, one side of each hook being fixedly connected to the pressure plate;
[0010] Each of the hooks is arranged in parallel, and the parallel direction is perpendicular to the opening direction of the storage bag;
[0011] A load-bearing cloth is tensioned between the hooks, and the load-bearing cloth supports the storage bag.
[0012] Furthermore, the hook is configured as a sliding rod and a hollow fixed rod, one end of the fixed rod is fixedly connected to the pressure plate, the sliding rod is slidably connected inside the fixed rod, and the sliding rod slides vertically along the fixed rod;
[0013] The end of the sliding rod is hook-shaped, and the load-bearing cloth is tensioned on the hook part of the sliding rod;
[0014] The fixed rod has multiple limiting through holes along the vertical direction, and the sliding rod has a groove on one side. A spring is installed in the groove, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to a limiting ball that matches the limiting through hole. One end of the limiting ball is located in the groove, and the other end of the limiting ball is used to engage with one of the limiting through holes.
[0015] Furthermore, a hook and loop fastener is fixedly connected to one side of the opening of the storage bag, and a loop and loop fastener is fixedly connected to the pressure plate, with the hook and loop fastener hooking onto the loop and loop fastener.
[0016] Furthermore, a cleaning towel is fixedly connected to the sterile towel.
[0017] Furthermore, a protective film is detachably connected to the side of the sterile towel near the cleaning towel, and the cleaning towel is disposed between the protective film and the sterile towel.
[0018] Furthermore, the adhesive strip is double-sided, with one side of the double-sided adhesive attached to the sterile towel and the other side attached around the anus of the postpartum woman.
[0019] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows:
[0020] 1. By placing the pressure plate under the mother and fixing the sterile towel to the mother with adhesive strips, the storage bag forms an opening below the mother's anus. The entire device does not need to be fixed to the mother's body as a whole, reducing local pressure and improving comfort.
[0021] 2. The sliding rod and the load-bearing cloth work together to support the weight of the storage bag, preventing the storage bag from being pulled downwards due to its weight, which would in turn pull the sterile towel downwards.
[0022] 3. By covering the cleaning wipe with a protective film, it can effectively prevent liquid contaminants such as blood, amniotic fluid, and secretions generated during childbirth from directly contacting the cleaning wipe, avoiding the cleaning wipe from getting wet or contaminated. At the same time, the cleaning wipe is sandwiched between the protective film and the sterile wipe, forming a physical isolation layer to avoid secondary contamination caused by external contact, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the cleaning wipe in the later stage.
[0023] 3. By setting an absorbent layer inside the storage bag, the impact of liquid sloshing on the sterile towel can be reduced, thereby preventing the sterile towel from shifting or falling off, thus ensuring the fixation effect and safety of the sterile towel. Attached Figure Description

[0031] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a childbirth soil-reducing bag, comprising: a pressure plate 1, a sterile towel 3, and a storage bag 2. One side of the opening of the storage bag 2 is detachably connected to the pressure plate 1, and the other side of the opening of the storage bag is fixedly connected to the sterile towel 3. The pressure plate 1 is placed under the mother, and an adhesive strip is fixedly connected to the sterile towel 3 and is attached to the mother. A support member is connected to the pressure plate 1, and the bottom of the storage bag 2 abuts against the fixed end of the support member. In use, first lay out the pressure plate 1, then the mother lies on the pressure plate 1 in the lithotomy position. Her own weight holds the pressure plate 1 in place, preventing the storage bag 2 from slipping due to gravity. Simultaneously, when the mother lies in the lithotomy position, her weight is evenly distributed through the pressure plate 1, creating vertical pressure on the storage bag 2. Combined with the fixing structure of the pressure plate 1 and the sterile towel 3, this effectively counteracts the lateral slippage force of the storage bag 2 caused by gravity. At the same time, the sterile towel 3 is attached to the mother's anus, opening the storage bag 2 into a rectangular shape, facilitating the smooth flow of feces into the storage bag 2. In actual use, the pressure plate 1 can be fixedly laid on the delivery bed to prevent displacement due to excessive movement by the mother, thus avoiding any impact on the proper storage of the storage bag 2. The entire device only requires the sterile towel 3 to be fixed to the mother's body with adhesive strips. The entire operation process is simple and convenient. The pressure plate 1 is pressed together by the mother's weight, and together with the sterile towel 3, it achieves dynamic fit, reduces local pressure, and improves comfort. The pressure plate 1 covers the mother's body and uses gravity to form a natural sealing barrier to prevent leakage. The openings of the storage bag 2 are fixed on both sides to ensure collection stability.
[0032] In this embodiment, the support includes at least two hooks, one side of which is fixedly connected to the pressure plate 1. Each hook is arranged in parallel, with the parallel direction perpendicular to the opening direction of the storage bag 2. A load-bearing cloth 43 is tensioned between the hooks, supporting the storage bag 2. In use, two hooks can be selected to place the storage bag 2 on the load-bearing cloth 43, preventing the storage bag 2 from pulling down the sterile towel 3 due to excessive weight after collecting feces. During installation, the straight-line distance between the bottom apex of the load-bearing cloth 43 and the pressure plate 1 is less than or equal to the straight-line distance between the bottom of the storage bag 2 and the pressure plate 1 when it is naturally stretched, to avoid the storage bag 2 being overstretched, thus affecting the stability of the sterile towel 3.
[0033] In this embodiment, the hook is configured as a sliding rod 42 and a hollow fixed rod 4. One end of the fixed rod 4 is fixedly connected to the pressure plate 1, and the sliding rod 42 is slidably connected inside the fixed rod 4. The sliding rod 42 slides vertically along the fixed rod 4. The end of the sliding rod 42 is hook-shaped, and the load-bearing cloth 43 is tensioned on the hook part of the sliding rod 42. The fixed rod 4 has multiple limiting through holes 41 in the vertical direction. A groove 46 is provided on one side of the sliding rod 42. A spring 45 is provided in the groove 46. One end of the spring 45 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove 46, and the other end of the spring 45 is fixedly connected to a limiting ball 44 that matches the limiting through hole 41. One end of the limiting ball 44 is located in the groove 46, and the other end of the limiting ball 44 is used to engage in one of the limiting through holes 41. The wall thickness of the fixed rod 4 is smaller than the radius of the limiting ball 44, so that the limiting ball 44 can slide smoothly after being pressed into the limiting through hole 41 without affecting the normal sliding of the sliding rod 42. In use, the positional relationship between the sliding rod 42 and the fixed rod 4 can be adjusted according to the specific length of the storage bag 2, that is, the specific height of the hook part of the sliding rod 42 can be adjusted so that the load-bearing cloth 43 can achieve a better load-bearing effect. When adjusting the height, manually install the limiting ball 44 inward to disengage it from the limiting through hole 41, and then move the sliding rod 42 up or down. When the limiting ball 44 reaches the next limiting through hole 41, the limiting ball 44 pops out under the elastic deformation of the spring 45 and locks into the corresponding limiting through hole 41, thereby achieving the effect of fixing the sliding rod 42. When the spring 45 holds its initial position, one end of the limiting ball 44 is in the groove 46, and the other end is locked into the corresponding limiting through hole 41. In actual use, a pin can also be used to fix the sliding rod 42.
[0034] In this embodiment, a hook-and-loop fastener 13 is fixedly connected to the opening side of the storage bag 2, and a loop fastener 12 is fixedly connected to the pressure plate 1. The hook-and-loop fastener 13 hooks onto the loop fastener 12. This facilitates quick installation and removal of the pressure plate 1 and the storage bag 2. During installation, the mother can lie down first, pressing down on the pressure plate 1, and then medical staff can fine-tune the specific installation position of the storage bag 2 according to the mother's actual situation to achieve better storage results.
[0035] In this embodiment, a pad 11 is covered on the pressure plate 1, and the Velcro side 12 is fixedly installed on the pad 11. This allows the mother to come into contact with the pad 11, improving her comfort.
[0036] In this embodiment, the adhesive strip is set as double-sided adhesive 33. One side of the double-sided adhesive 33 is attached to the sterile drape 3, and the other side is attached around the anus of the postpartum woman. This allows the opening of the storage bag 2 to be below the postpartum woman's anus, preventing feces from falling to other places. At the same time, the sterile drape 3 forms a sealed barrier through the double-sided adhesive 33, effectively blocking contact between feces, amniotic fluid, and the surgical area, reducing the postoperative infection rate (such as perineal incision infection). In addition, medical staff can operate the double-sided adhesive 33 with one hand to apply it, reducing the number of fixing steps (such as traditional bandages which require multiple people to cooperate); and the double-sided adhesive 33 can quickly fix the sterile drape 3, improving work efficiency. In actual use, the double-sided adhesive 33 can be selected from medical low-allergen double-sided adhesive 33, hydrocolloid double-sided adhesive 33, or silicone double-sided adhesive 33, which not only meets medical device standards but also improves user comfort.
[0037] In this embodiment, the double-sided adhesive 33 is configured with a wavy structure. During use, this enhances adhesion stability; and during childbirth when the skin stretches (e.g., perineal edema), the wavy structure can buffer stress and prevent tearing of the adhesive surface.
[0038] In this embodiment, both the connecting end of the sterile towel 3 and the double-sided adhesive 33 are designed to conform to the physiological curve of the skin around the anus of the mother. When the double-sided adhesive 33 is applied to the mother, the biomimetic structure allows the adhesive side of the double-sided adhesive 33 to form surface contact with the skin, resulting in more even pressure distribution and improved comfort for the mother. Simultaneously, the double-sided adhesive 33 perfectly conforms to the skin curve, avoiding the "edge lifting" or "wrinkling accumulation" of traditional adhesive strips. Furthermore, when the sterile towel 3 is applied to the skin around the mother's anus, the connecting edge of the sterile towel 3 conforms to the physiological curve of the skin around the anus, effectively preventing excessive accumulation of the sterile towel 3 at the anus, which could affect the surgical procedures performed by medical staff during delivery.
[0039] In this embodiment, a cleaning towel 34 is fixedly connected to the sterile towel 3. After the feces are collected, the medical staff directly tear off the sterile towel 3 from under the mother, and then use the cleaning towel 34 to perform simple cleaning of the mother's anus and surrounding area. Then, the cleaning towel 34 is placed under the mother to continue subsequent operations, reducing the risk of contamination.
[0040] In this embodiment, a protective film 31 is detachably connected to the side of the sterile towel 3 near the cleaning towel 34, and the cleaning towel 34 is positioned between the protective film 31 and the sterile towel 3. During childbirth, the protective film 31 protects the cleaning towel 34, effectively preventing blood, amniotic fluid, secretions, and other liquid contaminants generated during childbirth from directly contacting the cleaning towel 34, thus avoiding the cleaning towel 34 from becoming wet or contaminated. At the same time, the cleaning towel 34 is sandwiched between the protective film 31 and the sterile towel 3, forming a physical isolation layer to avoid secondary contamination caused by external contact, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the cleaning towel 34 in the later stages.
[0041] In this embodiment, the protective film 31 is electrostatically adsorbed onto the sterile towel 3. The protective film 31 is adsorbed onto the surface of the sterile towel 3 by an electrostatic field, without the need for glue or hot melt adhesive; when torn, the electrostatic effect is naturally released, leaving no adhesive residue on the cleaning towel 34, thereby ensuring the hygienic and sterile conditions of the cleaning towel 34 when cleaning the postpartum woman.
[0042] In this embodiment, a tear 32 for tearing the protective film 31 is provided at one corner of the protective film 31 and the sterile towel 3. During use, medical personnel can quickly tear off the protective film 31 through the tear 32, and then use the cleaning towel 34 to perform simple cleaning of the anus and surrounding area of the postpartum woman. At the same time, the tear 32 is clearly located, eliminating the need for medical personnel to fumble or search for the opening, reducing the possibility of operational errors. Even in low light conditions or when wearing gloves, the operation can be easily completed. In actual use, an easy-tear paper layer can be added between the protective film 31 and the sterile towel 3 at the tear 32 to prevent the protective film 31 from completely adhering to the sterile towel 3, thus facilitating quick separation of the protective film 31 and the sterile towel 3.
[0043] In this embodiment, the storage bag 2 is covered with a waterproof layer 22. During use, the waterproof layer 22 prevents liquid leakage from the storage bag 2 and contamination of the production room. In actual use, the waterproof layer 22 can be made of polyethylene (PE) film. Polyethylene (PE) film is low in cost, flexible, and chemically stable, and can effectively prevent liquid leakage.
[0044] In this embodiment, an absorbent layer 21 covers the waterproof layer 22. During use, liquid that comes with feces or accidentally falls into the storage bag 2 is absorbed and fixed by the absorbent layer 21, preventing the liquid from moving around freely in the storage bag 2. This reduces the impact of liquid movement on the sterile towel 3, preventing the sterile towel 3 from shifting or falling off, thus ensuring the fixation effect and safety of the sterile towel 3. Simultaneously, the waterproof layer 22 forms a physical barrier, and the absorbent layer 21 further absorbs residual liquid, forming a dual protection mechanism of "blocking + adsorption," effectively reducing the probability of contamination in the delivery room. The absorbent layer 21 can also absorb odors, reducing the spread of odors in the delivery room. In actual use, the absorbent layer 21 can be a non-woven fabric + SAP composite layer. The non-woven fabric provides structural support, and the SAP particles are evenly distributed on the non-woven fabric, improving overall absorbency and uniformity while maintaining the overall thinness of the storage bag 2.
[0045] The specific usage method of this embodiment is as follows:
[0046] When using it, first lay down the pressure plate 1, then the mother lies on the pressure plate 1 in the lithotomy position, using her own weight to press down the pressure plate 1; then fix the storage bag 2 to the pad 11, and then use double-sided tape 33 to fix the sterile towel 3 to the mother's body, so that the feces can fall smoothly into the storage bag 2.
[0047] After the feces are collected, tear off the protective film 31, use the cleaning towel 34 to clean the anus and surrounding area of the mother, then press it back and place the other side of the sterile towel 3 under the mother to temporarily close the opening of the collection bag 2; then continue with the subsequent operations to reduce the risk of contamination.
[0048] In summary, this invention, by placing the pressure plate 1 under the mother and securing the sterile towel 3 to her body with adhesive strips, creates an opening for the storage bag 2 below the mother's anus. The entire device does not require complete fixation to the mother, reducing localized pressure and improving comfort. Therefore, this invention effectively overcomes the various shortcomings of existing technologies.
[0049] 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 the 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 or all of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims and specification of this utility model.
