Neck support used for neck fixation

Abstract

The present invention provides a neck support used for neck fixation. The neck support consists of a left half part and a right half part, a top part of the left half part and the right half part is provided with a support wing, a front part of the left half part and the right half part is provided with a reserved opening, a rear part of the left half part and the right half part is provided witha "U"-shaped groove, and the left half part and the right half part are fixedly connected by a plurality of connecting adhere buckles. A left and right divided structure is used to overcome defects ofinconvenience of fixing in the prior art. At a rescue site, one person can finish the fixing of the neck support, no operation of lifting of a head and neck part is needed, no aggravation of cervicalspine fracture and dislocation, and spinal cord injury exist, no tracheal extraction is needed after cervical spine surgery, one people can complete the fixing, at the same time, patients' oxygen supply is not affected, and prognosis of patients with cervical spine trauma is not affected. Due to the use of the left and right divided structure, the neck support can be directly fixed under a stateof connecting a respirator.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an auxiliary medical device for neck fixation, in particular to a neck brace for neck fixation. Background technique [0002] Cervical braces are mainly used for cervical spine fractures and dislocations caused by trauma, and cervical spinal cord injury patients with cervical immobilization, so as to prevent cervical spine fractures and dislocations from being aggravated by cervical spine hyperactivity, which can cause aggravation of spinal cord injuries. It is also used in patients with cervical spine fractures and dislocations who do not need surgery Long-term fixation until the fracture and dislocation heals, and it is also used for postoperative clinical fixation of patients with cervical dislocation fractures. The neck collar currently used in clinical practice is mainly the Philadelphia neck collar, which consists of front and back pieces. During application, the two pieces are combined together, and most of the time it i...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] 1. The application may aggravate cervical fracture and dislocation and spinal cord injury, because when fixing the cervical collar, regardless of the patient's state of consciousness at the time, it is necessary to lift the patient's head first, bend the cervical spine forward, put the back piece in, and then put the head down. In the front view, although the cervical spine flexion activity is not large during this process, it may still aggravate the spinal cord injury due to spinal fracture and dislocation, and even threaten the life of the patient and affect the prognosis of the patient;

[0004] 2. When applied in the rescue field, usually the patient cannot raise his head on his own initiative. When fixing the neck collar, one medical staff is required to help lift the head, and another medical staff puts the back piece to complete the neck collar fixation, so two medical staff are usually required The process is very inconvenient, time-consuming, labor-intensive, and wastes rescue personnel and rescue time

[0005] 3. There is usually a hole in the front piece of the Philadelphia cervical collar, which is used to facilitate the passage of the tracheal tube during postoperative fixation of patients with tracheotomy. However, in clinical applications, the tracheal tube is usually connected to a ventilator for mechanical ventilation. The anesthesiologist needs to pull out the ventilator before placing the front piece during the front piece, which may affect the patient’s ventilation and cause hypoxia, and it is also very inconvenient to operate

[0006] 4. The currently used neck collar, after the patient wears it, will easily cause pressure on the back and occipital skin when the patient sleeps on the back, and even complications such as skin necrosis, and will affect the patient's sleep, which will also affect the patient.
