Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0006] People require care due to various factors. For example, when care is required due to the decline in physical strength associated with aging, when care is required due to being physically disabled after an accident, when care is required due to suffering from an illness and becoming physically disabled, etc. can be cited. In particular, in the case of a care recipient who can no longer move independently and whose life on the bedding is almost all of daily life (so-called bedridden), the physical and mental burdens on both the bedridden care recipient and their caregiver are extremely large.

[0007] In the care of bedridden care recipients, in order to reduce the physical burden on the caregiver for tasks such as turning the care recipient over, changing the sheets on the bedding, and moving the care recipient from one bedding to another, and to improve the QOL (Quality of Life) of the bedridden care recipient even slightly, many care sheets as disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 3 described above have been developed.

[0008] The sliding sheet disclosed in Patent Document 1 is installed, for example, on the bed surface of a hospital bed, and with the above-described configuration, when the caregiver operates the holding part of the sliding sheet to change the position of the care recipient on the sliding sheet so that the care recipient can easily change the body position and turn over without accidentally sliding on the sliding sheet, the physical burden on both the caregiver and the care recipient can be reduced (Patent Document 1, paragraphs 0005, 0011). On the other hand, when the caregiver transports the care recipient on a stretcher or the like with the care recipient placed on the sliding sheet, the anti-slip layer on the sliding sheet that contacts the care recipient prevents the care recipient from sliding on the sliding sheet, and the care recipient can avoid unexpected accidents on the sliding sheet. Therefore, the physical and mental burdens on both the caregiver and the care recipient are reduced (Patent Document 1, paragraph 0015).

[0009] The care sheet disclosed in Patent Document 2 is a sheet used in place of a normal sheet that covers the use surface of the bedding. With the above-described configuration, when installed on the use surface of the bedding, the sheet body is fixed to the bedding, an auxiliary sheet and a waterproof sheet are laminated on the sheet body, and the sheet body, the auxiliary sheet, and the waterproof sheet are integrally sewn at one fixed side edge (Patent Document 2, paragraph 0008).

[0010] When the care recipient is placed on the care sheet fixed to the bedding, the waterproof sheet can prevent the contamination of the sheet body due to the dissipation of food and drink around the care recipient and urine leakage caused by the movement of the care recipient, and the contaminated waterproof sheet can be replaced as appropriate (Patent Document 2, paragraphs 0006, 0015, 0017).

[0011] The caregiver can lift one side portion of the auxiliary sheet and the waterproof sheet by a handle installed on the side portion, and can turn over the cared-for person on the auxiliary sheet and the waterproof sheet (Patent Document 2, paragraphs 0006 and 0011).

[0012] Both side portions of the auxiliary sheet and the waterproof sheet can be lifted by each of two caregivers, each of whom is arranged on one side of each side portion, by handles installed on both side portions, and the cared-for person on the auxiliary sheet and the waterproof sheet can be moved to another bedding (Patent Document 2, paragraph 0014).

[0013] In the sliding sheet disclosed in Patent Document 3, for example, when the fabric of Examples 1 to 5 of Patent Document 3 is used as a sliding sheet with the sliding surface on the inside, a large force is not required for starting to move, and it can move safely and with a small force during movement. Since the cared-for person etc. are on the non-sliding surface, the cared-for person etc. can move safely without slipping off the sliding sheet during movement (Patent Document 3, paragraph 0047).

[0014] However, as nursing care techniques become more sophisticated and stretchers for transporting patients are also improved, the following problems have arisen in the nursing care sheets disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 3.

[0015] (1) Assuming that the body of the cared-for person can be moved and transferred to another bedding, a nursing chair, etc. (hereinafter referred to as "movement and transfer of the cared-for person"), (1-1) As in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 3, an anti-slip layer or a non-sliding surface is installed so as to be in close contact with the body of the cared-for person, and the physical sensation is impaired for a cared-for person lying on their back;

[0016] (1-2) As in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, when moving and transferring a care recipient from one bedding to another bedding or the like, it can also be used as a stretcher-like transport sheet. Therefore, in order to use a tough sheet or laminate and integrate a sheet that contacts a care recipient lying on his / her back with a sheet having other functions, the entire sheet becomes hard and the comfort felt by the care recipient is impaired.

[0017] (2) When the body of the care recipient is in contact with the anti-slip layer or the non-sliding surface, (2-1) In order to align the trunk of the care recipient from the back to the waist and hip, when the caregiver holds the handle part of the caregiving sheet and lifts the side end part side of the caregiving sheet to swing the care recipient on the sliding sheet, it becomes difficult for the care recipient to swing;

[0018] (2-2) For example, when the relative position of the care recipient and the caregiving sheet deviates from an appropriate position, it becomes difficult to adjust the position of the caregiving sheet while the care recipient is lying on his / her back on the caregiving sheet, and the work load of the caregiver and the physical load of the care recipient increase.

[0019] In view of the above situation of the prior art, the present invention is particularly for a bedridden care recipient who lies on a caregiving sheet covering the use surface of the bedding, and whose range of movement is smaller than the frequency of movement and transfer of the care recipient and the movement for the purpose of transfer. The covering state of the caregiving sheet on the use surface of the bedding is stable, there is no need to worry about urine leakage to the bedding, and the comfort is good. An object of the present invention is to provide a holistic waterproof caregiving sheet that is easy for a caregiver to perform a holistic operation such as swinging with the care recipient on the caregiving sheet or adjusting the position of the caregiving sheet.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0020] 〔1〕A sheet-like holistic waterproof caregiving sheet having a front surface and a back surface, When the back surface is in contact with the use surface of the bedding and covers the length direction of the holistic waterproof caregiving sheet in accordance with the length direction of the use surface, When the head of a person lying on their back is placed near the head - side end of the said surface, the waist and hip area of the said person can be placed near the foot - side end of the said surface. An anti - slip function for the use surface of the bedding is installed on the surface of the back side near the head - side end of the said surface, An anti - slip function for the use surface of the bedding is not installed on the surface of the back side near the foot - side end of the said surface. This is a waterproof sheet for nursing massage (hereinafter also referred to as "the present invention").

Effects of the Invention

[0021] According to the present invention, Especially for bedridden care recipients who move less frequently and have a smaller range of movement compared to the frequency of movement and transfer and transfer - purpose movement of care recipients, when lying on a nursing sheet that covers the use surface of the bedding, the covering state of the nursing sheet on the use surface of the bedding is stable, there is no need to worry about urine leakage onto the bedding, and the comfort of lying is good. For caregivers, it is possible to provide a waterproof sheet for nursing massage that facilitates the overall massage work such as rocking with the care recipient on the nursing sheet or the work of adjusting the position of the nursing sheet.

[0022] Therefore, the present invention is not intended for the purpose of the movement and transfer of care recipients.

Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0036] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6.

[0037] 《Common Matters》 In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a base sheet (1) as a thin-layered structure (having front and back surfaces and a thickness, and the thickness is small compared to the area of the front and back surfaces) used by being placed on a bedding, an anti-slip surface (2) having an anti-slip function, a gripping portion (3), a water-absorbent sheet (4), etc. are constituent elements.

[0038] Here, in the planar shape in plan view from above the thin-layered structure, the length of the longest line segment obtained by the intersection of the contour of the planar shape and a straight line and the direction of the line segment are referred to as the length and the length direction of the thin-layered structure.

[0039] However, when the thin-layered structure is line-symmetric or a parallelogram, it is handled as follows.

[0040] When the planar shape is line-symmetric, the length of the longest line segment obtained by the intersection of the contour of the planar shape and a straight line parallel to the axis of symmetry and the direction of the line segment are referred to as the length and the length direction of the thin-layered structure.

[0041] For example, when the shape of the thin-layered structure in plan view from above is an ellipse, the length and direction of the major axis of the ellipse are the length and length direction of the thin-layered structure.

[0042] For example, when the shape of the thin-layered structure in plan view from above is a parallelogram, the length of the long side of the parallelogram and the direction of the long side are referred to as the length and length direction of the thin-layered structure.

[0043] For example, when the shape of the thin-layered structure in plan view from above is a rounded parallelogram, the length and direction of the longest line segment obtained by the intersection of a straight line parallel to the long side of the rounded parallelogram and the rounded rectangle at two points are taken as the length and length direction of the thin-layered structure.

[0044] The length and direction of the longest line segment obtained by the intersection of a straight line perpendicular to the line segment giving the length of the thin-layered structure and the contour of the shape of the thin-layered structure in plan view from above are referred to as the width and width direction of the thin-layered structure.

[0045] When the thin-layered structure is placed on the use surface (MA) of the bedding, the length direction of the thin-layered structure is covered with the length direction of the use surface (MA), and when the care recipient is placed on the surface of the thin-layered structure with the length direction of the care recipient's body being the length direction of the thin-layered structure, the end of the thin-layered structure on the head side of the care recipient is called the "head-side end" (1HE), and the end of the thin-layered structure on the foot side of the care recipient is called the "foot-side end" (1FE).

[0046] <<Preferred Embodiment>> As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Embodiment 1 composed of a base sheet (1) and an anti-slip surface (2) having an anti-slip function provided on the base sheet (1), In Embodiment 1, Embodiment 2 further including a gripping portion (3) provided on the base sheet (1) in the configuration, In Embodiment 1, Embodiment 3 further including a water-absorbent sheet (4) provided on the base sheet (1) in the configuration will be exemplified below.

[0047] ■Embodiment 1■ Aspect 1 is composed of a base sheet (1), the base sheet (1), and an anti-slip surface (2) installed on the base sheet (1) (Figs. 1(a), (b), (c)).

[0048] 《Base Sheet (1)》 The base sheet (1) has a front surface (1A) (shown in plan view in Figs. 1, 3, 4, and 5) and a back surface (1B) (shown in bottom view in Figs. 1, 3, 4, and 5).

[0049] In the following, the front surface (1A) of the base sheet (1) is also referred to as the front surface (1A) of the present invention, and the back surface (1B) of the base sheet (1) is also referred to as the back surface (1B) of the present invention.

[0050] The size of the base sheet (1) is such that when the back surface (1B) of the base sheet (1) is in contact with the use surface (MA) of the bedding and the base sheet (1) is covered with its length direction aligned with the length direction of the use surface (MA), from near one end (head-side end (1HE)) in the length direction of the front surface (1A) to near the other end (foot-side end (1FE)), it suffices to have a length and width on the front surface (1A) on which the head to the waist and hip of a person lying on their back can be placed, from the perspective of the comfort of the lower body, it is not necessary for the entire foot end of the human body to be placed on the front surface (1A), preferably, it is not necessary for the part from the knee to the foot end to be placed, more preferably, it is not necessary for the part from near the foot end side of the thigh to the foot end to be placed.

[0051] In addition, the length from the head to the waist and hip of a person lying on their back may adopt the average dimension of the sitting height of Japanese people (for example, "Report on the Estimated Change Amount of Japanese Human Body Dimensions" (March 2013, Human Life Engineering Research Center, Incorporated General Association (https: / / www.hql.jp / hql / wp / wp-content / uploads / 2018 / 07 / size_ken2012_3.pdf)).

[0052] When the length of the base sheet (1) is such that when the head to the waist and hip of a human body are placed on the surface (1A), it is preferable that the foot-side end portion (1FE) is positioned from the thigh to the tibia of the human body, preferably 70 to 150 cm, more preferably 80 to 140 cm, still more preferably 90 to 130 cm, and even more preferably 100 to 120 cm.

[0053] When the width of the base sheet (1) is such that when the head to the waist and hip of a human body are placed on the surface (1A), it is preferably larger than the waist width of the human body and preferably about the same as or smaller than the width of the bedding, preferably 60 to 140 cm, more preferably 70 to 130 cm, still more preferably 80 to 120 cm, and even more preferably 90 to 110 cm.

[0054] The shape of the base sheet (1) in plan view from above may be a rectangle (Fig. 1(a)) or a rounded rectangle, or may be a polygon, a circle or an ellipse, and any shape may be used as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired.

[0055] When placing a care recipient on the surface (1A) of the base sheet (1) the care recipient (CR) may be placed so that the top of the head is within the vicinity of the head-side end portion (1HE) of the base sheet (1) (Fig. 2(a)), or the care recipient (CR) may be placed with the neck or shoulders protruding from the base sheet (1) (Fig. 2(b)).

[0056] When the care recipient is unable to move the neck independently, it is preferable to place the care recipient (CR) so that the top of the head is within the vicinity of the head-side end portion (1HE) of the base sheet (1), When the care recipient is able to move the neck independently, it is preferable that the care recipient (CR) can be placed with the neck or shoulders protruding from the base sheet (1).

[0057] In addition, for example, when the bedding is in the form of a double bed and its width is greater than its length, the base sheet (1) may be used with its length direction being the width direction of the bedding. In this case, the length direction of the base sheet (1) is treated as the width of the base sheet (1).

[0058] With the cared-for person placed on the surface (1A) of the base sheet (1), a caregiver grasps both side ends of the base sheet (1) (preferably, holds the gripping portions (3) described later installed near the foot-side ends (1FE) of both side ends), and lifts both side ends of the base sheet (1) one by one or both to gently turn over the cared-for person, a caregiver grasps the vicinity of the foot-side ends (1FE) of both side ends of the base sheet (1) (preferably, holds the gripping portions (3) described later installed near the foot-side ends (1FE) of both side ends), and lifts both side ends of the base sheet (1) one by one or both (in order to massage the lower body of the cared-for person) to swing the cared-for person in the width direction of the bedding, when a caregiver pulls out the base sheet (1) from the cared-for person, the base sheet (1) preferably has a strength such that it does not tear or break. It may be a cloth such as a soft woven or knitted fabric, a soft non-woven fabric, or a flexible film, but it does not necessarily have to be tough enough not to tear or break when the movement and transfer of the care recipient are repeated.

[0059] The base sheet (1) may be a single layer or may be integrally laminated with a plurality of thin layers so that they do not peel off.

[0060] When a caregiver pulls out the base sheet (1) in contact with the back of the cared-for person, the surfaces (1A) and (1B) that directly contact the cared-for person and the surface (MA) of the bedding are preferably made of a resin or fiber with low friction, such as a fluororesin, so as to be easily pulled out.

[0061] The base sheet (1) is made of a material that does not allow moisture to penetrate into the base sheet (1), and is preferably formed of non-absorbent synthetic fibers or a synthetic resin film.

[0062] The base sheet (1) is preferably made of a water-repellent material itself, or the front surface (1A) and the back surface (1B) of the base sheet (1) are water-repellent processed so that urine leakage from the cared-for person (from the disposable diaper that a bedridden cared-for person usually wears) does not seep out from the base sheet (1) and contaminate the surface (MA) of the bedding.

[0063] The base sheet (1) may have moisture permeability from the viewpoint of reducing the stuffiness of the cared-for person.

[0064] As described above, in the present invention, for a cared-for person who lies on their back and whose frequency of movement for changing positions on the bedding and movement to other bedding is small, and their caregiver, the base sheet (1) is difficult to twist with respect to the surface (MA) of the bedding (by the anti-slip surface (2) described later), if the material has moisture permeability, even if the cared-for person is covered with a towel, a blanket, a futon, etc., they are less likely to feel stuffy, urine leakage is less likely to seep into the bedding (more so if the water-absorbent sheet (4) described later is installed), it is easy to turn over, and particularly has the effect of facilitating the overall body adjustment of the lower body (where the back, waist and hip, and feet are prone to twisting).

[0065] As a suitable base sheet (1), for example, a sheet composed of a plain weave in which the warp and weft intersect alternately one by one is preferable because it is not only soft but also has a strength sufficient for overall body adjustment work and is excellent in durability and abrasion resistance.

[0066] Examples of plain weave fabrics include preferably Oxford (Ox), chambray, broadcloth, sheeting, weathercloth, campus, etc. Among them, Oxford (Ox) fabric is woven with two warp and weft threads aligned. Since it has relatively many gaps, it has good breathability and is light and soft, so it is more preferable.

[0067] Anti-slip surface (2) In Mode 1 An anti-slip surface (2) having an anti-slip function with respect to the use surface (MA) of the bedding is installed on the back surface (1B) on the back side near the head-side end (1HE) of the surface (1A) of the base sheet (1). The anti-slip surface (2) is not installed on the back surface (1B) on the back side near the foot-side end (1FE) of the surface (1A) of the base sheet (1) (FIGS. 1(b) and 1(c)).

[0068] The anti-slip surface (2) may be directly processed and installed at the location of the back surface (1B) by coating or the like, or may be installed by attaching a fabric or film such as a knitted fabric or a cloth having an anti-slip function.

[0069] As a method of directly processing the location of the back surface (1B), a resin having a high static friction coefficient is Examples of coating processes include roll coating, gravure coating, spray coating, etc., laminating processes such as powder lamination, or spray processing. For example, in the case of coating, it may be coated over the entire surface or partially processed such as dot processing or net-like processing.

[0070] As the resin having a high static friction coefficient, synthetic resins such as polyester resins and acrylic resins, and rubber-based resins such as butadiene rubber and acrylic rubber are used. In particular, dot processing of rubber-based resins is preferable because it has a large anti-slip function, is flexible, and can reduce the usage amount and the sticking area.

[0071] Examples of attaching a film or the like having an anti-slip function include forming a resin having a high static friction coefficient into a thin film or net-like sheet, cutting it according to the location of the back surface (1B), and thermocompression bonding, pasting, sewing, or detachably adhering with a double-sided tape or the like to the location of the back surface (1B).

[0072] The installation position of the anti-slip surface (2) is on the back surface (1B) from the perspective of ease of pulling out the base material sheet (1) by the caregiver and difficulty of twisting with respect to the surface (MA) of the bedding, and is preferably at a position from the head to the shoulder of the care recipient placed on the surface (1A) of the base material sheet (1), from the head-side end (1HE) of the surface (1A) of the base material sheet (1) to preferably up to 50% of the length of the base material sheet (1), more preferably up to 40%, still more preferably up to 30%, and the anti-slip surface (2) is on the back surface (1B) within these ranges, preferably covering 50% or more, more preferably 60% or more, still more preferably 70% or more, still more preferably 80% or more, still more preferably 85% or more.

[0073] From the same perspective, the installation position of the anti-slip surface (2) is from the head-side end (1HE) of the surface (1A) of the base material sheet (1), preferably 10 to 50 cm, more preferably 15 to 45 cm, still more preferably 20 to 40 cm, still more preferably 25 to 35 cm.

[0074] The anti-slip surface (2) may be installed over the entire width direction of the portion of the back surface (1B), or may be installed partially rather than over the entire width direction from the perspective of ease of pulling out the base material sheet (1) by the caregiver.

[0075] From the perspective of ease of pulling out the base material sheet (1) by the caregiver and difficulty of twisting with respect to the surface (MA) of the bedding, it is preferable that the anti-slip surface (2) has no anti-slip surface (2) installed in the length direction in the central portion in the width direction of the portion of the back surface (1B) (Fig. 3).

[0076] For example, as shown in Figs. 3(a) and 3(b), each of the two anti-slip surfaces (2) may be placed closer to both end portions of the base material sheet (1) and separated (at two locations) for installation.

[0077] The distance d between the adjacent side ends of the anti-slip surfaces (2) installed separately is preferably 3 to 20 cm, more preferably 5 to 15 cm, and still more preferably 8 to 12 cm (Fig. 3).

[0078] The shape of the region of the anti-slip surfaces (2) installed separately may be rectangular, circular, elliptical, or star-shaped as shown in Fig. 3, and may be any shape as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired (Fig. 3).

[0079] When the bedding has a back-raising function and the parts where the head, back, and waist of the bedding are placed can manually or electrically raise the cared-for person's back from horizontal (θ = 0) at an angle θ (>0) with respect to the horizontal (Fig. 2(c)), When the bedding is raised at a certain angle θ by the back-raising function of the bedding, the upper body of the cared-for person also rises while remaining in contact with the bedding, When the angle θ is large, the back side of the cared-for person and the overall waterproof nursing sheet may shift downward in the foot side direction of the bedding without following the bedding (Fig. 2(c)), If the anti-slip surfaces (2) are not installed at the central portion in the width direction of the back surface (1B) on the back side near the head side end portion (1HE) of the surface (1A) of the base sheet (1), When pulling up the head side end portion (1HE) of the base sheet (1) to the head side end portion side of the bedding, it is easy to return the position of the cared-for person's body and the overall waterproof nursing sheet to the head side end portion of the bedding (Fig. 2(d).

[0080] ■Aspect 2■ 《Gripping portion (3)》 In the present invention, while the cared-for person is placed on the surface (1A) of the base sheet (1), so that the caregiver can easily turn the cared-for person over slightly or pull out the base sheet (1), It is preferable that gripping portions (3) are installed at least near the head side end portions (1HE) of both side ends of the base sheet (1) on at least one side, preferably both sides of both side ends (Fig. 3), Furthermore, it is preferable that gripping portions (3) are installed near the foot-side end portions (1FE) of both side ends of the base sheet (1), on at least one side, preferably both sides, of the both side ends (Fig. 3).

[0081] From the viewpoint of ease of gripping by a caregiver, the gripping portion (3) may be in a string shape or a ring shape, but is preferably in a ring shape.

[0082] The gripping portion (3) is made of a cloth, non-woven fabric, resin, etc. having sufficient strength so as not to be cut or damaged when a caregiver pulls or draws out the base sheet (1), and is integrally molded with the base sheet (1), or is preferably joined to the side end of the base sheet (1) with an adhesive or sewn and joined.

[0083] ■Aspect 3■ 《Water-absorbent sheet (4)》 In Aspect 3, in Aspect 1 or Aspect 2 when the cared-for person sweats in a state of being placed on the surface (1A) of the base sheet (1), when urine leaks from the diaper worn by the cared-for person, when the skin of the cared-for person becomes stuffy, so that urine does not further leak from the base sheet (1) and hardly contaminates the surface (MA) of the bedding, it is preferable that a water-absorbent sheet (4) detachable from the base sheet (1) is installed around the surface (1A) where the waist and hip portions are placed when the cared-for person is placed on the surface (1A) of the base sheet (1) (Fig. 4).

[0094] (1-4) Water-absorbent sheet (4) (1-4-1) Material and composition: Water-absorbing surface (cotton / polyester), waterproof surface (polyurethane) (1-4-2) Manufacturer: Iris Ohyama Co., Ltd. (1-4-3) Product name: Wash-preventing sheet (1-4-4) Size: Width 900 mm × Length 1400 mm

[0095] (1-5) Surface fastener (1-5-1) Material and composition: Nylon (the hook surface and the loop surface are detachably joined) (1-5-2) Product name (manufacturer): Quicklon (YKK) (1-5-3) Size: Width 2 cm × Length 25 m

[0096] (2) Manufacturing conditions (2-1) Base sheet (1) The base sheet (1) was cut with scissors to a width of 103 cm and a length of 107 cm, The cut part in the length direction was edge-sewn with an acrylic thick tape (width 40 mm), and the cut part in the width direction was edge-sewn with a bias tape (width 40 mm).

[0097] (2-2) Anti-slip surface (2) A vinyl chloride convex dot geometric lattice net was cut with scissors to produce two cut sheets each with a width of 43 cm and a length of 25 cm. These were placed at predetermined positions on the base sheet (1) shown in Fig. 5 such that d = 10 cm, and the periphery of each cut sheet was sewn and affixed to the base sheet (1). and affixed.

[0098] (2-3) Grip part (3) An acrylic thick tape with a width of 5 cm was cut with scissors to a length of 50 cm, and the lengthwise acrylic thick tape was sandwiched and sewn with both ends folded by 5 cm.

[0099] (2-4) Water-absorbent sheet (4) Ten pieces of hook-and-loop fasteners with a width of 2 cm were cut to a length of 25 cm, At the predetermined positions shown in Fig. 5, the loop surface was sewn on the back surface of the base sheet (1), and the periphery of the hook surface was sewn on the waterproof surface side of the water-absorbent sheet (4).

[0100] (3) Fitting situation (3-1) Care recipient: A 26-year-old male (weight 55 kg) with muscular dystrophy who is bedridden. (3-2) Bedding: A mat laid on a hospital motorized bed with a back-raising function.

[0101] (3-3) Usage mode and effect (3-3-1) Lying in bed Align the length direction of the overall waterproof care sheet of the present invention with the length direction of the mat, lay the overall waterproof care sheet on the mat, and as shown in Fig. 2(a), place the head-side end (1HE) of the base sheet (1) at the position of the head of the care recipient wearing a disposable diaper and let the care recipient lie on their back.

[0102] (3-3-2) Back raising When the upper body of the care recipient is raised at a certain angle by the back-raising function of the bed, if the angle θ is large, the upper body of the care recipient and the integrated waterproof nursing sheet will shift downward in the foot side direction of the mat without following the mat. However, by pulling up the head side end (1HE) of the base sheet (1) to the head side end (1HE) of the mat, the positions of the care recipient's body and the integrated waterproof nursing sheet could be returned to the head side end (1HE) of the mat (Figs. 2(c) and (d)).

[0103] (3-3-3) Movement of the lower limbs Since the water-absorbing sheet (4) is fixed to the integrated waterproof nursing sheet with a hook-and-loop fastener, it does not curl or shift in response to the movement of the lower limbs.

[0104] (3-3-4) Leakage from the excretory part Since the water-absorbing sheet (4) is fixed to the integrated waterproof nursing sheet with a hook-and-loop fastener, it never deviates from the waist and hip part of the care recipient. Therefore, even if excrement leaks from the diaper, it does not leak onto the mat from the water-absorbing sheet (4), and the mat was not contaminated with excrement.

[0105] (3-3-5) Position change (turning over) Even with only one caregiver, by grasping one or both of the two gripping parts on one side of the integrated waterproof nursing sheet and lifting the base sheet (1), the care recipient can be easily turned over (changed position), thus alleviating the pain of the care recipient staying in the same position for a long time.

[0106] (3-3-6) Shiatsu massage Even with only one caregiver, by grasping one by one the two gripping parts on both sides of the integrated waterproof nursing sheet at the position of the care recipient's waist (pelvis) (a total of two gripping parts) and alternately pulling up the gripping parts upward, both sides of the base sheet (1) are alternately lifted, and the care recipient's waist can be swayed from side to side, thus preventing bedsores and blood flow disorders of the care recipient and achieving relaxation of the waist.

[0107] (3-3-7) Stability of the position of the base sheet (1) Since the anti-slip surface (2) is attached to the head-side end (1HE) side of the base sheet (1), the position of the base sheet (1) is stable with respect to the mat, and it is difficult for the upper body of the care recipient to slip down during the back-lifting operation.

[0108] (3-4) Replacement of the water-absorbing sheet (4) (3-4-1) Place the care recipient in the lateral position, peel off the surface fastener of the left or right half of the water-absorbing sheet (4), and pull it under the care recipient's body. (3-4-2) Spread and lay half of the new water-absorbing sheet (4) in the peeled-off space. (3-4-3) Insert the remaining half under the care recipient's body. (3-4-4) Turn the care recipient over and peel off and remove the contaminated water-absorbing sheet (4) from the surface fastener. (3-4-5) Spread half of the new water-absorbing sheet (4) and fix it with the surface fastener. (3-4-6) Return the care recipient's body to its original position.

[0109] (3-5) Replacement of the base sheet (1) (3-5-1) Place the care recipient in the lateral position, pull the laid sheet close to the body and insert it under the body. (3-5-2) Align the edge of the new sheet with the edge of the mat (in the length direction), spread half of it, and insert the remaining half under the care recipient's body. (3-5-3) Remove the old sheet and spread the new sheet at the timing of turning the care recipient over.

[0110] (4) Comparison with the case of not using the present invention (4-1) Since the anti-slip surface is on the head-side end (1HE) side of the care recipient, when the angle of the bed is raised and the back is lifted, the upper body of the care recipient is difficult to slip downward. Since the anti-slip surface is not at the center in the width direction, it is easy to pull up the head-side end (1HE) of the base sheet (1) to the head-side end (1HE) of the mat (FIGS. 2(b)(c)).

[0111] (4-2) Since the holding parts are provided on both sides of the substrate sheet (1) near the waist and hip areas, even with a slight body position change, (even if the physique of the care recipient is large), a single caregiver can perform it safely and easily. Even when it is difficult for the care recipient to change their body position independently, a single caregiver can rock the care recipient's waist and hip areas through the holistic waterproof care sheet, contributing to pain reduction and prevention of bedsores and blood flow disorders.

[0112] (4-3) Since the water-absorbing sheet (4) is fixed to the substrate sheet (1) with a hook-and-loop fastener, it is difficult for the water-absorbing sheet (4) to be turned up or displaced by the movement of the lower limbs or body displacement. Therefore, even if there is urine leakage from the disposable diaper, it can be contained within the range of the water-absorbing sheet (4) to prevent contamination of the mat.

[0113] (4-4) Since the water-absorbing sheet (4) is detachable with a hook-and-loop fastener, it can be easily replaced even if the water-absorbing sheet (4) is contaminated with excrement.

[0114] (4-5) QOL of the care recipient and caregiver (4-5-1) The holistic waterproof care sheet of the present invention can be safely and easily operated by a single caregiver, so it can immediately respond to the care recipient's complaint of pain, and the physical and mental burden on the care recipient due to various operations by the caregiver is reduced. (4-5-2) With respect to the body movement of the care recipient, the holistic waterproof care sheet of the present invention is stably installed on the mat and the care recipient's body, reducing the displacement of the care recipient's body from the mat and the displacement of the water-absorbing sheet (4), making it easy to perform body position changes and holistic care. Therefore, the physical burden on the caregiver is reduced, and a mental relaxation is generated.
