Problems solved by technology

[0016] In order to solve the problems that the existing sternal external fixation devices generally adopt the contraction-type fixation method, which will limit the expansion of the chest cavity and cause compression to the fracture site of the ribs, etc.
The present invention proposes a traction-type stretchable rib support device. For the fixation after chest surgery or rib fracture, the stretching method is used to provide the traction force for the fracture site to resist muscle contraction, so as to solve the problem that the existing rib support device will limit the expansion of the chest cavity and prevent fractures. Parts cause technical problems such as extrusion

Abstract

The invention relates to a rib support device for fixing a rib injury part, which comprises a traction belt with a length that can be adjusted and two anchor patch pieces that are combined at both ends of the traction belt, and each of the anchor patch pieces is provided with a gluing stick. At the adhesive surface of the injury site, the use of a traction band to pull the anchor patch can providethe traction force of the fracture site against the muscle contraction in an extended manner, and effectively avoid the pain of the injury site due to the mutual contraction of the muscle contraction, thereby reducing the pain sensation. The ability to provide an injury site is equivalent to plaster or splint and other external fixation functions to reduce the mutual displacement of bone ends. According to the progress of the invention, the anchor patch is designed as a disassembly type, and the clean anchor patch can be replaced according to the use conditions and conditions, thereby improving the safety and hygiene of the rib support device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical product, especially a rib supporting device which is stretched and fixed when a patient suffers from chest trauma, chest wall contusion, rib fracture or flail chest. Background technique [0002] According to medical statistics, in traumatic events, 70% of patients will be combined with chest contusion. At least 50% of patients with chest contusions will be diagnosed with definite rib fractures. However, severe pain due to periosteum trauma is common even in patients with no definite rib fractures found at the initial stage of trauma. There are 12 pairs of ribs in the human body. The rear of each rib is connected to the spine, and the front is connected to the sternum through costal cartilage. In terms of the structure of the entire rib cage surrounded by ribs, it is more similar to the structure of a birdcage. In such a cage-shaped structure, single-point fractures of a small number of ribs will not cause deformati...
