Description

[Technical field]

[0001] This invention values ​​the independence of people who have difficulty standing or walking suddenly on their own (hereinafter referred to as people with walking difficulties), and provides a method that enables them to urinate and defecate in a sitting position at their bedside by utilizing a box-perforated mattress at night. [Background technology]

[0002] TIFF0007636645000002.tif8147As the trend toward single-family homes and nuclear families progresses, difficulties in dealing with frequent nighttime urination and other issues have emerged in both institutional and home care. In addition to the decline in care workers, frequent nighttime urination assistance is not provided as desired, and the use of diapers leads to skin erosion and worsening bedsores, increasing the burden on caregivers. The present invention aims to prevent falls in people with walking difficulties who go to the toilet on their own, to maintain their self-esteem, and to protect their privacy, while at the same time reducing the burden on caregivers (hereinafter referred to as caregivers).

[0003] [Patent documents] [Patent documents] [JP Patent Publication No. 2009-219670] [JP Patent Publication No. 2010-088701] Means for solving the problem

[0004] mattress Main unit Box with holes on both sides left and right Which one Remove the lid and try it yourself. in Sit by the bedside Then, It enables excretory actions such as urination in a sitting position.

[0005] Respecting the independence of people with walking difficulties and encouraging them to sit up on their own will lead to positive results such as peace of mind, help them find their own way, and heighten their awareness of what they want to do and how they want to do it, encouraging them to make decisions and take action. It also reduces the burden on caregivers.

[0006] In addition to encouraging sitting-position urination while respecting the patient's independence, rehabilitation through self-exercises for the lower limbs and physical therapy improves muscle strength and walking function, and the feeling that it may be impossible gradually changes to "it may be possible," leading to the patient gaining confidence in doing it on their own and being able to do it smoothly.

[0007] Proper nutrition and proper nursing care will improve immunity and the body's natural healing ability, thereby maintaining and restoring physical strength and functions, and foster independence in those with walking difficulties.

[0008] To avoid a bedridden, diaper-centered life and to prevent loss of confidence, respiratory function is improved through respiratory therapy and respiratory muscle training while the patient sits at the bedside with assistance.

[0009] To prevent bedsores that occur while lying down, the pressure on one side can be dispersed by appropriately changing posture and sitting at the bedside.

[0010] Encouraging independent toileting behavior and keeping caregivers rested and refreshed helps maintain the health of both.

[0011] By maintaining the independence and motivation of people with walking difficulties, caregivers have more time to communicate with them and alleviate their psychological anxiety.

[0012] If caregivers have the time to understand the feelings and wishes of people with walking difficulties and to work to reduce psychological stress and feelings of loneliness, they will be able to explain the need for assistance, eliminate feelings of humiliation, and provide appropriate and effective assistance.

[0013] By keeping an eye on the person's surroundings and making sure they have a comfortable bed, appropriate room temperature, a clean environment, and a pleasant living space, and by taking proactive measures to minimize the risk of falls and injury, it is possible to select support and assistive devices such as handrails as needed.

[0014] If a person with walking difficulty is receiving specific medical treatment or prescription medication, continuing to take the appropriate medication and treatment in cooperation with a doctor can help improve their condition.

[0015] We provide a box-drilled mattress for people who have difficulty walking, as we have determined that it is necessary. Many people are reluctant to rely on others for toilet assistance, especially when it comes to excretion. By molding the mattress as shown in Figure 1, the present invention makes it possible to use the mattress at night, etc. Refrain from going to the toilet , box when needed As an excretory container Use it and layer disposable urine pads or paper diapers made of polymer absorbent material in the recesses. use This allows them to defecate on their own without the help of others. Easy The invention does not cause skin contamination, allows for easy post-treatment, and helps prevent falls.

[0016] This is a box-drilled mattress that allows people with walking difficulties to sit on the bedside by themselves, stabilize their feet on the floor, and relieve themselves in that position. It is physiologically difficult for people to relieve themselves while lying down, but if they sit on the bedside, they are in the same position as a Western-style toilet, making it easier to relieve themselves. Wearing a diaper hurts self-esteem and makes people lose their ambition. This method allows people to relieve themselves by themselves without help from others, and does not damage their self-esteem.
