Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical postoperative bandages, specifically a multifunctional postoperative bandage for thyroid endoscopy. Background Technology

[0002] Compared to open neck surgery, endoscopic thyroid surgery leaves no visible scars, improving overall patient satisfaction. However, it creates a long, narrow surgical tunnel from the endoscopic inlet to the surgical area, increasing bleeding. Bandaging is an important nursing step, helping to stabilize the surgical area and instrument tunnel, reduce bleeding and swelling, and promote wound healing. Due to the thyroid gland's unique anatomical location, very close to the trachea, esophagus, major blood vessels, and nerves, applying pressure to the surgical area postoperatively is extremely difficult to avoid affecting the patient's breathing, eating, and communication.

[0003] Existing surgical bandages for thyroidectomy have several drawbacks. First, they lack pressure on the neck. Second, pressure bandages applied to tunnel wounds have blind spots and are prone to displacement. Third, tunnel compression bandages can cause skin pressure damage to non-surgical areas and impair chest movement. Therefore, they are not very effective at preventing bleeding in the surgical area and surgical tunnel, and there remains a risk of suffocation due to tracheal compression from neck bleeding, thus delaying postoperative recovery. To address these issues, a multifunctional postoperative thyroidectomy bandage is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a multifunctional postoperative bandage for thyroid endoscopic surgery. It is suitable for transthoracic, transareolar, transclavicular, and transaxillary thyroid endoscopic surgeries. The bandage includes a neck compression strap with a compression pack inside to protect the lower neck surgical area, prevent or reduce postoperative neck bleeding without impairing the patient's respiratory function. The compression pack compresses the surgical tunnel, and the Velcro straps in the placement area prevent displacement. Furthermore, two additional sets of fixation straps and compression packs are added to each shoulder to apply pressure to the surgical incision after subclavicular and transaxillary approaches, effectively preventing pressure damage to non-surgical areas and accelerating wound healing.
