Description

Technical area

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fracture instruments, in particular a fracture airbag splint. Background technology

[0002] A commonly used method for fracture fixation in clinical practice is splinting. This involves firmly securing a hard splint to the fracture site using fabric or adhesive tape. Because the splint is relatively hard, it will loosen over time if it is loosely tied. The fixation is then no longer secure enough, which impairs the healing effect. Splints that are tied too tightly increase pain. Furthermore, long-term compression of the splint at the fracture site leads to ischemia and necrosis of the compressed tissue, resulting in secondary injuries.

[0003] Clinically, the splint is currently covered with a layer of gauze or cotton cloth to make it softer and more comfortable. However, this method is relatively crude, and the additional gauze and cotton cloth easily peel off. This needs to be optimized and improved. Content of the utility model

[0004] The utility model aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, one purpose of the utility model is to provide a fracture airbag splint.

[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is as follows: a fracture airbag splint, characterized in that it comprises a wrapping film, an airbag, a trachea, an air valve, a pocket, a hard splint and a bandage.

[0006] An airbag is located on one side of the wrapping film, in the direction of its thickness. The airbag extends in the width and length directions of the wrapping film. On the airbag is a trachea with an air valve.

[0007] On the other side of the wrap, there are several pockets arranged at intervals along the width of the wrap. A hard splint can be detachably placed in each pocket, and a bandage is placed on top of the wrap. The bandage is placed on top of the wrap and serves to wrap and secure the wrap when it is formed into a ring.

[0008] Preferably, one side of the pocket is open and the other is closed. The hard rail is inserted into the pocket through the open side.

[0009] The bandage is preferably a hook-and-loop fastener. The hook-and-loop fastener consists of a sub-hook fastener and a main hook-and-loop fastener. The sub-hook fastener is located on one side of the film width. The main hook-and-loop fastener is located on the side of the patch pocket facing away from the airbag. If the bandage body is shaped into a ring, the sub-hook fastener and main hook-and-loop fastener can be connected.

[0010] Compared to the state of the art, the utility model has the following advantageous effects: The hard splint on the edge of the device provides fixation and prevents displacement of the fracture site. The airbag inside has a certain cushioning compressibility due to the gas. This can relieve pain and reduce pressure on the tissue at the fracture site. This ensures fixation of the fracture site and prevents subsequent damage.

[0011] Further aspects and advantages of the utility model are partly set out in the following description and partly become clear from the following description or learned through practical implementation of the utility model. Description with drawings

It may be a direct or indirect connection via an intermediate medium, or it may be the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model depending on the specific circumstances.

[0018] A fracture airbag splint as in Fig. until Fig. shown consists of: a wrapping film 1, an airbag 2, a trachea 3, an air valve 4, a pouch 5, a hard splint 6 and a bandage.

[0019] On one side surface of the wrapping film 1 there is an airbag 2 in the thickness direction. The airbag 2 extends in the width and length direction of the wrapping film 1. On the airbag 2 there is an air tube 3 on which an air valve 4 is located.

[0020] On the other side of the wrap, there are several pockets arranged at intervals along the width of the wrap. A hard splint can be detachably placed in each pocket, and a bandage is placed on top of the wrap. The bandage is placed on top of the wrap and serves to wrap and secure the wrap when it is formed into a ring.

[0021] The wrapping film 1 is a flexible plastic film, the attachment pocket 5 is a plastic pocket, and the airbag 2 is a hollow rubber or silicone airbag. The wrapping film 1, the attachment pocket 5, and the airbag 2 form an integral component. The attachment pocket 5 is open on one side and closed on the other. The hard rail 6 is inserted into the attachment pocket 5 through the open side.

[0022] The trachea 3 is a plastic tube. An air valve 4 is located on the trachea 3. The air valve 4 is open and closed. When the air valve 4 is open, the airbag 2 can be connected to the trachea 3 using an air pump or a small air pump. After inflation, closing the air valve 4 prevents gas from escaping, allowing the airbag 2 to remain inflated for a long time. If the airbag 2 becomes deflated, the air valve 4 can be opened again, and the gas is released automatically.

[0023] When using the device, the wrap film 1 is wrapped around the fracture site. The airbag 2 is placed inside, facing the body, and the rigid splint 6 is placed outside. The wrap film 1 is then wrapped around the body and secured with a strap. The airbag 2 is then inflated with an air pump and placed between the rigid splint 6 and the fracture site.

[0024] During this process, the hard splint 6 on the edge of the device serves to secure the fracture site and prevent displacement. The airbag 2 inside has a certain cushioning compressibility due to the gas. This can relieve pain and reduce pressure on the tissue at the fracture site. This ensures the fracture site is secured and prevents subsequent damage. By releasing the gas via the air valve 4, the device can be easily removed and reused after cleaning and disinfection.

[0025] In practice, as in Fig. As shown, the bandage is a hook-and-loop fastener. The hook-and-loop fastener consists of a sub-hook fastener 7 and a main hook-and-loop fastener 8. The sub-hook fastener 7 is located on one side of the film width 1. The main hook-and-loop fastener 8 is located on the side of the patch pocket 5 facing away from the airbag 2. When the bandage body is shaped into a ring, the sub-hook fastener 7 and the main hook-and-loop fastener 8 can be connected to each other. Attaching the hook-and-loop fastener is simple and reliable. By adjusting the attachment area of ​​the sub-hook fastener 7 and the main hook-and-loop fastener 8, the strength can be adjusted during attachment, which facilitates handling.

[0026] Although the embodiments of the utility model have been shown and described, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the utility model, and that the scope of the utility model is defined by the legal claims and their equivalents.
