Abstract

The object of the invention is a support arm support stand and a procedure for its use in providing conditions for performing nursing care at the patient's extremities. The support arm support and the procedure for its use address the deficiencies of the described problem solving with the help of medical personnel and known solutions, such that the stand comprises two separate units, each of which has a two-socket pedestal (2.2 ') with a vertical support (1.1' ) and a telescopic extension (4,4 ') with a pointed pin (5,5') and a transverse batten (7) with corresponding openings (8,8 ') at both ends and a movable adjustable loop, a loop (10) with a locking element (9).

Description

The subject of the invention is a limb support stand and a method for using it to provide conditions for performing nursing care on a limb of a patient. The invention belongs to Class A61G 13/12 of the International Patent Classification.

A technical problem that is satisfactorily solved by the present invention is the construction and construction of a limb support stand for providing secure io support for the limb and determining the procedure for its use with the aim of providing effective limb care and conditions for sterile preparation of the operative field and preventing the operative field from crossing. .

Conditions for performing nursing care (surgery, etc.) on the limb are a set of factors that are interrelated and are not mutually exclusive, but cover both the technical part (the structural implementation of the support, its installation and removal) and the procedures for providing sterile environment when using support (preventing sterile field from crossing).

The solution to the problem of providing adequate support for the patient's limbs in performing nursing care (surgery) has so far been solved mainly by providing an appropriate support or other support to the ancillary medical staff who attended the intervention or otherwise • by lifting or retention) supported the patient's limbs to the desired position. Such interventions can be physically demanding and may be dangerous for the patient in the event of prolonged interventions.

There is a solution described in the WO patent document

2009/126032, which enables the provision of support for the patient's limbs, especially the legs, in which two support bars are detachably attached to the lower corners of the operating table, with adjustable foot supports. The solution is, by design, part of the operating table (with its installation reducing the workspace adjacent to the operating table) and is therefore not universally applicable.

DE 202 14 451 discloses a freely movable support device for supporting the patient's legs during a leg disinfection procedure prior to surgery, which has two silicone leg loops and a hydraulic height adjustment. He has no constant contact with the operating table. is The preparation itself is complicated to manufacture and occupies considerable space at the operating table, and is not universally applicable to surgery and cannot be easily moved after use.

The limb support and procedure for its use eliminates the disadvantages of the described problem solving with the help of medical personnel and known solutions such that the support consists of two separate units, each with a three-legged stand with upright support and a telescopic extension with a pointed pin and a crossbar with appropriate openings at both ends and a sliding adjustable loop. loops with locking element.

The invention will be explained in more detail on the basis of an embodiment and figures, of which:

Fig. 1 is a view of a composite stand for limb support according to the invention; Figure 2 shows the installation of a support stand for the limb before intervention; Fig. 3 shows a preparation of a patient for mounting his limbs in a composite limb support stand according to the invention; loops 10 whose movement along the transverse lath 7 can be fixed by the locking element of the carrier 9.

The accompanying Figure 1 shows a limb support stand according to the invention. The stand according to the invention consists of two upright supports 1.1 ', each having a three-legged support base 2.2' with leveling legs 3.3 'and a telescopic extension 4.4' with a pointed pin 5.5 '. The 4.4 'telescopic extension can be fixed at the desired height with a suitable 6.6' closure. In addition to the vertical supports 1.1 ', the stand according to the invention also comprises a transverse lath 7 with corresponding openings 8.8' at both ends. The openings 8,8 'allow for easy installation and removal of the transverse lath 7 on the telescopic extensions 4,4' uprights 1,1 'by inserting a tapered pin 5 of the telescopic extension 4 of the upright bracket 1 into the opening 8 and a tapered pin 5 'of the telescopic extension 4' of the upright support T is inserted. loops 10 whose movement along the transverse lath 7 can be fixed by the locking element of the carrier 9 (Figure 4).

The above elements of the stand for the purpose of supporting the limbs in the execution of 5 nursing are assembled and placed according to the following procedure and as shown in Figures 2 and 3. First, with the closure 6,6 ', adjust the corresponding equal height of the telescopic extensions 4,4' of the vertical supports 1 , 1 'according to the position of the patient, and then mount an upright carrier 1.1' on each side of the bed, away from the edge of the bed (between 20 and 40 cm) and transversely to the patient's extremities. The two uprights 1,1 'are connected to each other by a transverse lath 7 with a combination of pointed pins 5,5' and openings 8,8 '. On the transverse lath 7, the loop 10 is mounted in the bracket 9 so that the loop is fully mounted in the bracket 9 throughout its width.

To position the patient's limb in such a position, snap the limb with the fingers forward in the open loop 10 and then pull the loop by the heel. The limb in loop 10 is stabilized or supported by the support 9. we consolidate.

In the case of using a limb support according to the invention for the preparation of a sterile field, after placing the limb in a loop, tilt the operating table 30 ° downwards, thus increasing the angle between the bed and the limb and facilitating the preparation of the operative field.

The limb support according to the invention thus enables the procedure for providing the conditions for performing the limb health care to be performed. The structural features of the stand according to the invention make it easy to install, ensure a smooth (even longer) intervention on the patient's extremity, but it is essential that the described construction allows sufficient space to perform the planned procedure and easy aseptic preparation of the stand itself according to the instructions. In addition to the proper placement of the limb, which enables the provision of medical care on the whole limb, said stand according to the invention is stable, it is possible to easily select different shapes and lengths of loops according to the purpose of use and needs of the patient, thus preventing nerve damage or.

circulation in cases where the patient's consciousness or sensation is disturbed.

The limb support according to the invention enables the limb to be mounted on one person, who simply mounts the loop on the patient's limb at places where the patient's blood flow or nerves are at risk, and the limb oscillation and slipping are prevented.

is After the operation is completed, due to the simple construction of the stand according to the invention, it is easy to disassemble, and the transverse lath 7 is fastened with the support 9 to the vertical support 1,1 '.
