Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical device technology, specifically relating to a restraint glove. Background Technology
[0002] Existing medical restraint gloves mostly adopt a one-piece, fully enclosed structure, wrapping the patient's hand entirely with cotton or fabric. This design has significant shortcomings. First, it is inconvenient to operate. The fully enclosed structure hinders medical staff from observing the condition of the skin on the back of the hand (such as blood circulation and indwelling needle status) or performing nursing procedures (such as blood collection and blood glucose monitoring), requiring frequent removal and removal of gloves, increasing the complexity of the operation and weakening the restraint effect. Second, it has poor breathability. The dense material easily leads to the accumulation of sweat on the hands, and long-term wear can easily cause skin problems such as eczema and erosion, exacerbating patient discomfort and agitation. Finally, the limited functionality and lack of a dedicated channel to accommodate medical tubing make the tubing susceptible to compression or entanglement, increasing the risk of unplanned extubation. Furthermore, the reliance on simple wrapping for hand immobilization fails to effectively restrict grasping movements, resulting in limited restraint. These shortcomings restrict the clinical applicability of restraint gloves, necessitating an improved solution that balances restraint effectiveness, ease of operation, and patient comfort.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides a restraint glove, including a support part 1, a visualization cover 2, and a fixing part 3. The support part 1 and the visualization cover 2 are both arc-shaped and are detachably connected to form a receiving cavity 4 for accommodating the human hand. The receiving cavity 4 is also an arc-shaped cavity, which can allow the palm of the human hand to open within the receiving cavity 4. The fixing part 3 is shaped like a wristband that wraps around the human wrist and is connected to both the support part 1 and the visualization cover 2 to fix the human hand within the receiving cavity 4. There are two openings 5 between the fixing part 3 and the visualization cover 2, and the openings 5 communicate with the receiving cavity 4. The detachable connection of the support part 1 and the visualization cover 2 allows medical personnel to perform operations such as establishing intravenous access, monitoring blood oxygen saturation with a blood oxygen saturation probe, and drawing blood on the back of the patient's hand. The openings 5 between the fixing part 3 and the visualization cover 2 allow medical tubing to pass through.
[0025] Restraint gloves are commonly used medical items, and patients who use them are usually undergoing protective restraints in psychiatric settings or... In intensive care units, patients using life support equipment, those with cognitive impairment or agitation, those who are confused, restless, have therapeutic tubes, or exhibit self-harming behavior require appropriate restraint gloves. The proper design and use of restraint gloves can protect patients to a certain extent and reduce the incidence of accidental injuries such as unplanned extubation or self-harm. Existing restraint gloves on the market typically use a one-piece, fully enclosed structure, simply wrapping the patient's hand with ordinary cotton cloth. This design prevents observation of the back of the patient's hand, such as peripheral blood circulation, and hinders medical procedures like injections. Furthermore, it lacks additional space for medical access devices like needles and does not consider patient comfort. To address these issues, the restraint glove of this application specifically improves upon these requirements. The detachable connection between the support part 1 and the visualization cover 2, and the opening 5 between the fixing part 3 and the visualization cover 2, effectively solve the aforementioned problems.
[0026] Specifically, in one embodiment of this utility model, the detachable connection structure between the support part 1 and the visualization cover 2 is a zipper 6. This structural design provides an openable operating window. By pulling open the extended zipper 6 at the connection between the visualization cover 2 and the support part 1, the back of the hand area can be fully exposed, facilitating medical staff to perform nursing tasks such as blood glucose monitoring, intravenous catheterization, and skin observation without completely removing gloves, thus reducing operational complexity. On the other hand, it maintains a balance between restraint function and operational convenience. While maintaining the restraint function of the gloves, the zipper structure allows for quick opening and closing, preventing patients from releasing the restraints themselves and enabling timely response to nursing needs, reducing the risk of unplanned extubation or self-injury. In another embodiment, the detachable connection structure between the support part 1 and the visualization cover 2 is a detachable structure such as a button or Velcro, which can achieve the same effect.
[0027] Specifically, in one embodiment of this utility model, the visualization cover 2 is provided with a visible part 21, which almost fills the entire area of the visualization cover 2. The visible part 21 is made of transparent PVC plastic. This structure allows medical staff to observe the condition of the patient's hand at any time, such as before clinical blood collection and aseptic operation, as well as the condition of the patient's indwelling needle, without having to frequently open gloves, reducing nursing operation steps, and avoiding the impact of repeated putting on and taking off of gloves on the restraint effect. On the other hand, the transparent PVC plastic material has good light transmittance and is waterproof and stain-resistant. In addition, compared with the cotton material of ordinary restraint gloves, the transparent PVC plastic material of the visible part 21 has higher strength. In another embodiment, the area of the visible part 21 can be relatively reduced, leaving only a part of the space. In addition, the visible part 21 can also adopt other transparent structures, such as a large-aperture mesh structure, to achieve the above-mentioned effects.
[0028] Furthermore, the visible part 21 is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 22. This structural design can promote air circulation, reduce the accumulation of sweat on the hands, and avoid skin problems such as eczema and erosion caused by stuffiness. It is especially suitable for agitated patients who wear it for a long time, improve breathability, and prevent skin problems. On the other hand, it can improve patient comfort. The breathable design reduces the feeling of restraint on the hands and reduces the patient's irritability caused by stuffiness, indirectly reducing the probability of unplanned tube removal or self-harm. In another embodiment, a mesh structure can also be used, which can also achieve the breathability effect.
[0029] Specifically, in one embodiment of this utility model, the side of the support part 1 near the receiving cavity 4 is the contact surface 41. The contact surface 41 is made of pure cotton and has at least one finger sleeve 12. The use of pure cotton material makes the patient's hand feel softer, more comfortable and fit better, and is also more durable. The finger sleeve 12 is fixedly connected to the support part 1 by both ends of an elastic, thin, short restraint strap, forming a space that can accommodate one finger. Its setting position corresponds to the middle finger of the human hand. Most existing restraint gloves do not have finger fixing straps or the fixing straps are poorly designed. The structural design of this finger sleeve 12, by wrapping or fixing the finger, together with the support plate 14, restricts the patient's grasping, bending or turning movements, preventing them from removing treatment tubes (such as intravenous indwelling needles) or engaging in self-harm (such as scratching the skin). At the same time, the elastic band is fixed laterally at the base of the middle finger, allowing slight movement (such as the need for blood circulation) while preventing the hand from turning over as a whole. In another embodiment, there are multiple finger sleeves 12, each corresponding to multiple fingers. Alternatively, one finger sleeve can be set to accommodate multiple fingers, achieving the same effect.
[0030] Furthermore, the side of the support part 1 facing away from the receiving cavity 4 is a breathable surface 13, which is provided with a mesh breathable layer 131. This mesh material can enhance breathability. The porous structure of the mesh fabric can accelerate the evaporation of sweat from the hands and reduce stuffiness. It is especially suitable for agitated patients who wear it for a long time and prevent skin problems such as eczema and erosion. On the other hand, compared with dense materials, the mesh fabric is soft and lightweight. Together with the support plate 14, it can reduce the pressure on the patient's hands and relieve anxiety or irritability caused by restraint, thereby indirectly reducing the risk of unplanned extubation. In another embodiment, both the support part 1 and the visualization cover 2 are made of mesh material.
[0031] Furthermore, a rigid support plate 14 is provided between the contact surface 11 and the breathable surface 13. The support plate 14 almost fills the entire area of the support part 1. This structural design can restrict the patient's hand movement on the one hand, preventing unplanned extubation or self-injury. The support plate 14 restricts the bending, grasping or turning movements of the palm, making it impossible for the patient to complete extubation (such as endotracheal intubation, intravenous catheter) or self-injury (such as scratching the skin). It is especially suitable for agitated or confused patients. At the same time, the shape of the support plate 14 matches the physiological curvature of the palm, which maintains the natural posture of the hand and avoids joint damage caused by forced twisting. On the other hand, it can improve the stability and durability of the restraint. The support plate can prevent the restraint glove from deforming or shifting due to the patient's violent movements, ensuring that the restraint effect is effective for a long time.
[0032] Specifically, in one embodiment of this utility model, the fixing part 3 includes a first connecting part 31 and a second connecting part 32. One end of the first connecting part 31 is fixedly connected to the second connecting part 32, and the other end forms a side opening 33 with the second connecting part 32. The second connecting part 32 is provided with a restraint strap 34. The restraint strap 34 is detachably connected to the first connecting part 31 by Velcro 35. The restraint strap 34 can seal the side opening 33 and can adjust the tightness according to the wrist size. Then, the Velcro on the restraint strap 34 is used to attach it. The Velcro 35 includes a rough surface 351 and a hook surface 352. The rough surface 351 is provided on the restraint strap 34, and the hook surface 352 is provided on the first connecting part 31. In another embodiment, the tightness adjustment and fixing structure of the fixing part 3 can also use buttons, zippers, ropes, etc., which can achieve similar effects as described above.
[0033] Furthermore, in addition to the restraint strap 34, the fixing part 3 is also provided with a strap 36 wrapped around the outside of the fixing part 3. The strap 36 is provided with at least one free end 361 extending away from the fixing part 3. This structural design can further enhance the fixing effect of the fixing part 3 on the wrist. On the other hand, in clinical work, the strap 36 can be used to fix the patient's wrist together with the bed rail or bracket to prevent the patient's arm and wrist from moving around and affecting the treatment effect.
[0034] The working principle of this utility model is explained in detail below: The support part 1 and the visualization cover 2 are detachably connected by the zipper 6, forming the receiving cavity 4 that covers the hand. When hand care (such as intravenous puncture or skin observation) is required, medical staff can quickly detach the connection structure and lift the visualization cover 2 to expose the operating area without completely removing gloves. This maintains the restraint function while simplifying the operation process. The support part 2 has a built-in support plate 14, whose shape conforms to the physiological curvature of the palm. It restricts hand grasping and turning movements through rigid support, preventing patients from pulling out tubes or injuring themselves. The support plate 14, combined with the mesh material, reduces hand pressure. The ventilation holes and mesh design promote air circulation and reduce skin problems caused by stuffiness. The fixing part 3 adopts a dual fixing mechanism of the restraint strap 34 and the binding strap 36. The tightness can be adjusted by Velcro or the binding strap 36 to ensure that the glove fits the wrist securely. The opening 5 between the visual cover 2 and the fixing part 3 is designed to allow medical tubing (such as infusion tubing and pulse oxygen probe) to pass through, avoiding tubing compression or twisting, and reducing the need to release restraint due to frequent tubing adjustments.
[0035] The innovations of this invention are as follows: Modular and detachable design, using an openable connection structure (such as a zipper), provides an operating window while maintaining restraint function, allowing medical staff to directly expose the back of the hand to perform nursing procedures, reducing the frequency of disassembly, improving efficiency, and lowering the risk of restraint failure; Optimized transparency and breathability, the visual cover uses transparent material combined with ventilation holes or a mesh structure, achieving the dual effect of real-time observation of hand status and improved air circulation, reducing the incidence of skin problems and improving patient comfort; Tubing compatibility and dual fixation, the fixation part is equipped with an opening and multi-level adjustable restraint straps, ensuring smooth passage of medical tubing while using straps and Velcro to securely fix the wrist, preventing displacement or unplanned tube removal; A balance between activity restriction and comfort, the rigid support plate restricts hand movement, combined with elastic finger cots and breathable materials, ensuring restraint effectiveness while reducing pressure and patient anxiety. Through these improvements, this design significantly enhances the clinical practicality and patient adaptability of restraint gloves, resolving the core contradictions between function, operation, and comfort in existing products.
