Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a protective abdominal binder that prevents drainage tube indentation. Background Technology
[0002] A drainage tube is a medical device used in clinical surgery to drain pus, blood, and fluid accumulated between tissues or in body cavities, preventing postoperative infection and promoting wound healing. In clinical use, one end of the drainage tube is typically led out from the patient's side (e.g., from the waist), and the other end is connected to a drainage bag to store the accumulated fluid. During drainage, it is important to avoid squeezing or bending the drainage tube, which could obstruct drainage, and to avoid pulling or applying force that could cause the drainage tube to dislodge or shift.

Detailed Implementation
[0032] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of this application.
[0033] In some techniques, abdominal binders used to secure drainage tubes can easily leave indentations on the patient's skin, even causing skin damage. Furthermore, the drainage tubes can easily shift or fold during patient movement, leading to poor drainage and inconvenience. To address these issues, this application provides an abdominal binder that prevents drainage tube indentations. The structure of each part of this abdominal binder is described below:
[0034] For example, in medical practice, especially after abdominal surgery, drainage tubes are widely used to drain fluid and contaminants from the abdominal cavity to promote wound healing. However, current methods of fixing drainage tubes often involve using tight abdominal binders or adhesive tape, which can easily leave pressure marks on the patient's skin and even cause skin damage. Furthermore, when patients cough or move their abdomen forcefully, the drainage tubes do not relieve intra-abdominal pressure or reduce pain, causing additional pain and inconvenience to the patient.
[0035] like Figure 1 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the anti-drainage tube indentation protection abdominal binder in this application at one angle.
[0036] To address the above problems, this application provides an abdominal binder to prevent drainage tube indentation, comprising:
[0037] The abdominal binder body 1 has a first Velcro 11 on one side and a second Velcro 12 on the other side; the second Velcro 12 is adhesively connected to the first Velcro 11; the abdominal binder body 1 is made of a soft and elastic woven fabric with a certain degree of elasticity; by adhesively connecting the first Velcro 11 to the second Velcro 12, the protective abdominal binder can be worn on the patient's abdomen.
[0038] A pressure-relieving pad 2 is disposed between the first Velcro 11 and the second Velcro 12. The side of the pressure-relieving pad 2 closest to the outer edge of the abdominal binder body 1 is connected to the abdominal binder body 1. A gap is provided between the pressure-relieving pad 2 and the abdominal binder body 1 for placing a drainage tube. The pressure-relieving pad 2 is made of memory foam, which has a certain degree of elasticity. The gap between the pressure-relieving pad 2 and the abdominal binder body 1 allows the drainage tube to pass through the gap, avoiding direct contact with the patient and thus preventing pressure marks or skin damage caused by the drainage tube.
[0039] For example, the memory foam has slow rebound properties: when subjected to external pressure, it slowly deforms to adapt to the shape of the pressure-bearing object and disperses the pressure. When the pressure is released, it slowly returns to its original shape, thereby increasing the service life of the pressure-relieving pad 2. Pressure dispersion: Memory foam effectively disperses pressure between the body and the contact surface, avoiding local blood circulation obstruction caused by pressure concentration, thus reducing pain and discomfort caused by pressure. Strong support: Memory foam provides just the right support according to the curves of the human body, allowing the patient's abdomen to fit completely against the pressure-relieving pad 2, helping to relieve fatigue and pain. High fit: Memory foam closely conforms to the curves of the human body, providing support to the patient's abdomen and improving abdominal comfort.
[0040] A drainage tube channel 3 is provided between the first Velcro 11 and the pressure-relieving pad 2, and between the second Velcro 12 and the pressure-relieving pad 2. The drainage tube channel 3 is used to pass through the drainage tube, connecting the drainage tube to the drainage bag. After the drainage tube passes through the gap between the pressure-relieving pad 2 and the abdominal binder body 1, it connects to the drainage bag through the drainage tube channel 3, thereby avoiding direct contact between the drainage tube and the patient, thus preventing the drainage tube from forming pressure marks on the patient's skin or even causing skin damage.
[0041] In this embodiment, the pressure-reducing cushion 2 includes:
[0042] The lumbar support pad 21 is connected to the abdominal belt body 1 and is located in the middle of the abdominal belt body 1; the lumbar support pad 21 is fixed to the abdominal belt body 1 and is used to support the patient's lumbar and back.
[0043] A left abdominal pad 22 is attached to the abdominal binder body 1 on the side closest to the outer edge of the body. The left abdominal pad 22 is positioned between the first Velcro 11 and the back pad 21. A gap is provided between the left abdominal pad 22 and the abdominal binder body 1 for placing a drainage tube. The left abdominal pad 22 is positioned on the left side of the abdominal binder body 1 to support the patient's left abdomen.
[0044] A right abdominal pad 23 is attached to the abdominal binder body 1 on the side closest to its outer edge. The right abdominal pad 23 is positioned between the second Velcro closure 12 and the back pad 21. A gap is provided between the right abdominal pad 23 and the abdominal binder body 1 for placing a drainage tube. A left abdominal pad 22 is positioned on the right side of the abdominal binder body 1 to support the patient's right abdomen.
[0045] In this embodiment, the left abdominal pad 22 and the right abdominal pad 23 are provided with Velcro on the side near the outer edge of the abdominal binder body 1; wherein, the left abdominal pad 22 or the right abdominal pad 23 is attached to the abdominal binder body 1 by means of the Velcro adhesive. The Velcro allows the left abdominal pad 22 and the right abdominal pad 23 to be detached from the abdominal binder body 1, thereby facilitating the replacement or cleaning of the left abdominal pad 22 and the right abdominal pad 23 by the patient or medical staff.
[0046] In this embodiment, the length of the first hook and loop fastener 11 is greater than the length of the second hook and loop fastener 12. The first hook and loop fastener 11 has a certain degree of adhesiveness, and the second hook and loop fastener 12 can be adhesively connected to the first hook and loop fastener 11 by connecting to it. It can be understood that by increasing the length of the first hook and loop fastener 11, the abdominal binder can be adapted to patients with any waist circumference, thereby improving the fit of the abdominal binder.
[0047] In this embodiment, the pressure-reducing pad 2 is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 24. The ventilation holes 24 can improve the breathability of the protective abdominal binder, prevent discomfort to the patient when wearing the protective abdominal binder, and improve the patient's comfort when wearing the protective abdominal binder.
[0048] In this embodiment, a plurality of adjusting rods 31 are provided within the drainage tube channel 3. The adjusting rods 31 are disposed within the drainage tube channel 3 along the width direction of the drainage tube channel 3 and are slidably connected within the drainage tube channel 3. The arrangement of the adjusting rods 31 allows the protective abdominal binder to better secure the drainage tube. Specifically, by sliding any two adjusting rods 31 to a suitable distance, the drainage tube is fixed between the two adjusting rods 31.
[0049] In addition, multiple drainage tubes can be fixed simultaneously by means of several adjustment rods 31.
[0050] like Figure 3 The diagram shown is a schematic representation of the adjusting rod in this application.
[0051] In this embodiment, silicone grooves are provided on both sides of the drainage tube channel 3; the silicone grooves have a certain degree of elasticity and the cross-section of the silicone grooves is semi-circular; spherical devices 311 are provided at both ends of the adjusting rod 31; the spherical devices 311 are slidably connected to the silicone grooves, so that the adjusting rod 31 is slidably connected inside the drainage tube channel 3. The diameter of the spherical device 311 is slightly larger than the diameter of the silicone groove, so that when the spherical device 311 is placed in the silicone groove, the silicone groove can better fix the spherical device 311, and because the silicone groove has a certain degree of elasticity, the adjusting rod 31 can slide inside the silicone groove, thereby adjusting the distance between the two adjusting rods 31 to meet the needs of drainage tubes of any size.
[0052] like Figure 2 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the anti-drainage tube indentation protection abdominal binder in this application from another angle.
[0053] In this embodiment, a fixing strap 4 is provided on the side of the abdominal binder body 1 away from the pressure-relieving pad 2. The fixing strap 4 is U-shaped; both sides of the fixing strap 4 are connected to the outer edge of the abdominal binder body 1; the fixing strap 4 is used to fix the drainage bag. It is understood that patients may need to move while wearing the drainage tube and drainage bag. This application, by providing a fixing strap 4 on the side of the abdominal binder body 1 away from the pressure-relieving pad 2, and by securing the drainage bag to the fixing strap 4, can prevent the drainage bag from being left unattended during patient movement, thus facilitating patient movement.
[0054] In this embodiment, a plurality of fixing devices 41 are provided along the length of the fixing strap 4, and the fixing devices 41 are used to fix the drainage bag. In order to further fix the drainage bag, this application provides a plurality of fixing devices 41 along the length of the fixing strap 4, and the fixing devices 41 include, but are not limited to, clips, pins and other devices; after the drainage bag is snapped onto the fixing strap 4, the fixing devices 41 can be used to further fix the drainage bag to the fixing strap 4, thereby preventing the drainage bag from falling off the fixing strap 4 when the patient moves.
[0055] In this embodiment, pressure detection devices 5 are provided on the side of the left abdominal pad 22 and the right abdominal pad 23 near the abdominal binder body 1. The pressure detection devices 5 are used to obtain the pressure value between the abdominal binder body 1 and the human body. After the patient puts on the protective abdominal binder, the pressure detection devices 5 monitor the pressure value between the protective abdominal binder and the human body in real time. An alarm 6 is connected to the pressure detection devices 5 and is located on the side of the abdominal binder body 1 away from the pressure-reducing pad 2. The alarm 6 is configured to provide an audible and visual warning when the pressure value is greater than a preset pressure value.
[0056] For example, the drainage tube has a limited pressure capacity; when the pressure exceeds a certain value, it can easily cause blockage or even deformation. Through the pressure detection device 5 and the alarm 6, when the pressure value detected by the pressure detection device 5 exceeds a preset pressure value, the alarm 6 issues an audible and visual warning to remind the patient to adjust their posture to prevent blockage or deformation of the drainage tube. The preset pressure value is determined by the manufacturer based on experience and experiments with the protective abdominal binder.
[0057] This application provides a protective abdominal binder to prevent drainage tube pressure marks. When the binder is worn on the patient's abdomen, the pressure-reducing pad 2 conforms to the patient's abdominal curve, providing stable support. The drainage tube is located in the gap between the binder body 1 and the pressure-reducing pad 2, avoiding direct contact between the drainage tube and the skin, effectively dispersing pressure and protecting the skin, preventing the patient from developing drainage tube pressure marks due to prolonged pressure. The drainage tube channel 3 allows for flexible adjustment of the drainage tube's position and supports the parallel fixing of multiple drainage tubes. The adjusting rod 31 can fix the drainage tube to the protective abdominal binder to prevent it from slipping or shifting. A fixing strap is provided on the outside of the protective abdominal binder to securely fix the drainage bag or drainage ball when the patient gets out of bed, ensuring that it is neither higher than the incision position nor falls to the ground. By adjusting the first Velcro 11 and the second Velcro 12, the tightness of the protective abdominal binder can be ensured to be moderate, which can fix the drainage tube without causing excessive pressure on the patient.
[0058] This application provides an abdominal binder to prevent indentation from drainage tubes, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0059] 1. Reduce pressure marks: The pressure-segmented design, using pressure-reducing pads 2 and soft, breathable materials, effectively disperses the pressure of the drainage tube on the skin, reducing pressure mark formation and improving patient comfort.
[0060] 2. Stable fixation: Several drainage tubes can be fixed by the drainage tube channel 3 and the adjusting rod 31 to ensure the stable fixation and protection of the drainage tubes. The fixing strap 4 ensures the stable fixation and protection of the drainage bag, allowing the patient to move freely at any time.
[0061] 3. Breathable and comfortable: The pressure-reducing pad 2 has several ventilation holes 24 to enhance breathability and reduce the discomfort of patients wearing the protective abdominal binder for a long time.
[0062] 4. Easy to adjust: With the first Velcro 11 and the second Velcro 12, patients can easily adjust the tightness of the protective abdominal binder to suit patients of different body types.
[0063] The above detailed embodiments further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of the embodiments of this application. It should be understood that the above are merely specific embodiments of the embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the embodiments of this application.
