[0004] However, this new type of foot and ankle pressure ulcer prevention pad has the following disadvantages: when in use, it is difficult to support the depressions on both sides of the ankle, causing the depressions on both sides of the ankle to be suspended after the pad wraps around the ankle, resulting in insufficient support and increasing the risk of local tissue pressure. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is as follows: to provide a foot and ankle pressure ulcer prevention pad with high practicality and simple structure through simple operation, which solves the problem mentioned in the background art that it is difficult to support the depressions on both sides of the ankle during use, so that the depressions on both sides of the ankle are suspended after the prevention pad wraps around the ankle, resulting in insufficient support and increasing the risk of local tissue pressure.

[0006] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] An ankle pressure ulcer prevention pad includes a protective sleeve, a connecting tube fitted onto one side of the protective sleeve, a support assembly connected to one end of the connecting tube, and a compression balloon connected to the other end of the connecting tube. Two sets of connecting assemblies are fixedly connected to the top of the protective sleeve, and a protective pad is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting assemblies. The support assembly includes a connecting joint connected to one end of the connecting tube, and delivery tubes connected to both sides of the connecting joint. One end of the delivery tube is connected to the support balloon. The connecting assembly includes a sub-hook and loop fastener fixedly connected to the top of the protective sleeve, and a female hook and loop fastener is adhesively connected to the surface of the sub-hook and loop fastener.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the surfaces of the protective sleeve and the protective pad are provided with support covers adapted to the support airbag, and the surfaces of the protective sleeve and the protective pad are provided with grooves. The grooves facilitate adaptation to the shape of the ankle.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a zipper is provided on one side of the protective sleeve, and a zipper head is slidably connected to the surface of the zipper. The zipper head facilitates the opening and closing of the zipper.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: two sets of triangular straps are fixedly connected to both sides of the protective sleeve, and a connecting strap is fixedly connected to one end of each triangular strap. The connecting strap facilitates connection and fixation.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the top surface of one set of connecting strips is provided with a rough surface, and the bottom surface of the other set of connecting strips is provided with a hook surface. The hook surface serves to fit and fix the strips together.

[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a foam pad core is fitted inside the protective sleeve, and an air valve is provided at one end of the compression balloon. The air valve facilitates air intake and release.

[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model: four sets of rubber nails are fixedly connected to the bottom of the protective sleeve, and wear-resistant pads are sleeved on the surface of the rubber nails. A heel protection pad is fixedly connected to one side of the protective sleeve. The wear-resistant pads serve to protect the bottom of the protective sleeve.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. This foot and ankle pressure ulcer prevention pad, through the design of the support components and the compression balloon, allows the protective sleeve to be wrapped around the ankle during use. Then, according to the different patient's ankle depressions on both sides, the compression balloon is squeezed, allowing air to enter the connecting tube and reach two sets of delivery tubes. The delivery tubes inflate the support balloon, causing it to expand and thus effectively support the depressions on both sides of the ankle. This prevents the depressions on both sides of the ankle from being unsupported after the pad is wrapped, thus dispersing pressure on the heel and ankle joint and reducing the risk of local tissue pressure.

[0016] 2. This foot and ankle pressure ulcer prevention pad, through the design of the connecting components and the protective pad, allows for easy removal and cleaning of the protective pad after a period of use. When the protective pad, which is in constant contact with the patient's ankle, becomes soiled with sweat and other substances, cleaning is required. Simply pull the protective pad to detach the female Velcro at the bottom from the female Velcro, allowing for easy replacement of the new pad. This reduces the frequency of overall pad cleaning, prevents bacterial growth caused by sweat and secretions, and lowers the risk of infection. Attached Figure Description
