Problems solved by technology

Among them, the Achilles tendon airbag splint is more advanced, such as the structure disclosed in Chinese patent CN2170746Y, which uses a soft dressing to encircle the airbag splint on the Achilles tendon in the middle and lower part of the calf, then inflate the airbag, and use the gas reaction force to pressurize and fix the Achilles tendon , so that the ruptured Achilles tendon quickly fits along the track in the complete tendon sheath, but at the same time, because of the cerclage method, it will cause circumferential pressure and compress the entire lower leg, affecting the blood circulation in the lower leg

Embodiment Construction

[0021] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the embodiment that accompanying drawing provides.

[0022] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the elastic Achilles tendon splint of the present invention has two splints 3, 3 ', and also has a bow support 1, and the two inner sides of the opening end of the bow support 1 are respectively connected with two splints 3, 3 ', A pressure screw 5 and a pressure regulating nut 4 are also installed on the bow support 1 . At this time, the two inner sides of the opening end of the bow-shaped bracket 1 are respectively fixedly connected with the two splints 3, 3'. The pressure screw rod 5 passes through the hole 12 at the open end of the bow support 1 and is threadedly connected with the pressure regulating nut 4 . In order to avoid splint 3,3 ' from pinching or pinching the skin, two splints 3,3' are equipped with soft pads 6, and both ends of two splints 3,3' have elbows. Generally, 2 to 4 bow supp...

Abstract

The present invention discloses an elastic Achilles tendon splint for curing fresh closed rupture of Achilles tendon. It has two splints, also has an arched support, two inner sides of opening end of said arched support are respectively connected with said two splints. Said arched support also is equipped with pressure screw bolt and pressure-regulating nut, in which one splint can be directly fixed-connected with the arched support, also can be movably connected by means of screw bolt, spring and nut: when said two splints are respectively fixedly-connected with arched support, the inner side of every splint can be equipped with air bag or soft liner additionally. Said invention can be used for directly holding and fixing Achilles tendon, preventing broken ends from separating and promoting union of broken Achilles tendon.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a special external fixation device for treating fresh closed Achilles tendon rupture. Background technique [0002] Closed Achilles tendon rupture is a common sports injury for athletes and martial arts actors. If it is not treated properly, it will often affect their sports and artistic life. At present, the common treatment methods for fresh closed Achilles tendon rupture are divided into surgical treatment and conservative treatment. Surgical treatment has complications such as wound infection, re-rupture, adhesion, etc.; conservative treatment methods: plaster fixation with knee flexion and plantar flexion, Neda Achilles tendon Retainer, Sheffelled Splint, and Achilles Balloon Splint. Among them, the Achilles tendon airbag splint is more advanced, such as the structure disclosed in Chinese patent CN2170746Y, which uses a soft dressing to encircle the airbag splint on the Achilles tendon in the middle and lower part of the ...
