Description
CAMILLA RÍGIDA Y PLEGABLE CON SENSORES BIOMÉDICOS PARA RIGID AND FOLDABLE STRETCHER WITH BIOMEDICAL SENSORS FOR
PRIMEROS AUXILIOS FIRST AID
CAMPO TÉCNICO TECHNICAL FIELD
La presente invención se relaciona con una camilla para primeros auxilios, la cual presenta la característica de ser plegable en su totalidad al tiempo que es completamente fabricada de un material rígido que permite que el paciente pueda ser transportado de forma adecuada, al tiempo que permite leer y monitorear los signos vitales de dicho paciente mediante las correas con las que se amarra o se asegura dicho paciente, sin requerir de elementos adicionales complejos que aumenten el tamaño de la misma, permitiendo que la camilla pueda ser almacenada en cualquier espacio plano. ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCION The present invention relates to a stretcher for first aid, which has the characteristic of being foldable in its entirety while being completely made of a rigid material that allows the patient to be transported properly, while allowing reading and monitor the vital signs of said patient by means of the straps with which said patient is tied or secured, without requiring additional complex elements that increase the size thereof, allowing the stretcher to be stored in any flat space. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
En la actualidad, los accidentes de tránsito se consideran problemas de salud pública con características de epidemia y generan altos costos de atención en salud con secuelas físicas en los pacientes asociadas a una inadecuada inmovilización y transporte en el momento del accidente/trauma. Adicionalmente, cuando se presenta un accidente es necesario tomar una acción inmediata con el fin de ayudar al paciente y prestarle los primeros auxilios de la forma más
rápida posible, al tiempo que se requiere realiza la respectiva inmovilización y posterior transporte a un centro de salud especializado. At present, traffic accidents are considered public health problems with epidemic characteristics and generate high health care costs with physical sequelae in patients associated with inadequate immobilization and transportation at the time of the accident / trauma. Additionally, when an accident occurs, it is necessary to take immediate action in order to help the patient and provide first aid in the most As quickly as possible, the required immobilization and subsequent transport to a specialized health center is required.
Sin embargo, esta atención no se puede prestar con la velocidad deseada, ya que se requiere de varios algún tipo de dispositivo para el transporte del paciente, específicamente una camilla, donde las camillas existentes en la actualidad se encuentran en lugares públicos como edificios, centros comerciales, etc., pero los accidentes no siempre se presentan en estos lugares, sino que por el contrario ocurren a menudo en ubicaciones remotas, donde las únicas personas que pueden prestar ayuda son las que transitan por ese lugar en un momento específico, donde dichas personas no cuentan con elementos para prestar la atención requerida ni para realizar el respectivo transporte adecuado del paciente en necesidad. Así las cosas, en el estado del arte existe una pluralidad de divulgaciones relacionadas con este tipo de dispositivos, dentro de las que se encuentra el documento US 4799274 (D1 ) que describe un sistema de camilla que comprende dos perfiles longitudinales entre los cuales se dispone una tela de camilla y crear así una estructura rígida adecuada para el transporte de personas que requieren algún tipo de asistencia, en donde dichos perfiles se disponen con soportes entre los cuales se suministran miembros rígidos transversales que se doblan, dichos
soportes están provistos con unas aberturas para la inserción de la pierna y los miembros de soporte se aseguran mediante la ayuda de tornillos de sujeción. However, this attention cannot be paid with the desired speed, since some type of device is required for the transport of the patient, specifically a stretcher, where currently existing stretchers are in public places such as buildings, centers commercial, etc., but accidents do not always occur in these places, but instead they often occur in remote locations, where the only people who can help are those who travel through that place at a specific time, where these people do not have elements to provide the required care or to make the respective adequate transport of the patient in need. Thus, in the state of the art there is a plurality of disclosures related to this type of devices, within which is the document US 4799274 (D1) that describes a stretcher system comprising two longitudinal profiles between which are arranged a stretcher fabric and thus create a rigid structure suitable for the transport of people who require some kind of assistance, where said profiles are arranged with supports between which rigid transverse members are folded, said brackets are provided with openings for leg insertion and the support members are secured by means of fastening screws.
No obstante lo anterior, el dispositivo descrito en esta anterioridad presenta la desventaja que su material no es rígido y no es el deseable para el transporte del paciente, ya que en el caso concreto corresponde a una tela que puede ceder y causar mayores problemas a la persona que está siendo transportada, al tiempo que no permite realizar ningún tipo de monitoreo de signos vitales, y por tanto, no facilita la labor del servicio de primeros auxilios. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the device described in the foregoing has the disadvantage that its material is not rigid and is not desirable for transporting the patient, since in the specific case it corresponds to a fabric that can yield and cause greater problems to the patient. person being transported, while not allowing any type of vital signs monitoring, and therefore, does not facilitate the work of the first aid service.
De otra parte, se encuentra el documento WO 2012/042074 (D2), el cual divulga una camilla plegable que comprende dos varas paralelas relacionadas mediante unos travesaños plegables y sobre las que se encuentran fijados los laterales opuestos de una tela que conforma la superficie de apoyo del paciente y unas correas para sujetar dicho paciente, en donde cada una de las varas está constituida por cuatro tramos de tubo con bisagra que forman una articulación de sección en "U" con escotaduras inferiores. On the other hand, there is document WO 2012/042074 (D2), which discloses a folding stretcher comprising two parallel rods related by means of folding crossbars and on which the opposite sides of a fabric that forms the surface of patient support and straps to support said patient, where each of the rods is constituted by four sections of hinge tube that form a "U" section joint with lower recesses.
Sin embargo, la camilla definida en este documento también presenta la desventaja que la tela dispuesta entre las dos varas que forman la estructura del dispositivo, no es un material completamente rígido y no es el adecuado para el
transporte de pacientes que han sufrido algún tipo de accidente, al tiempo que no incluye ni sugiere el uso de medidores de signos vitales. However, the stretcher defined in this document also has the disadvantage that the fabric disposed between the two rods that form the structure of the device, is not a completely rigid material and is not suitable for the transport of patients who have suffered some type of accident, while not including or suggesting the use of vital signs meters.
Ahora bien, en el estado del arte también se encuentra otra divulgación relacionada con camillas para prestar primeros auxilios, la cual corresponde al documento CN 203829163 que enseña una herramienta de primeros auxilios, particularmente una camilla plegable, la cual comprende un cuerpo plegable y una superficie suave la cual se dispone sobre el cuerpo de la camilla y es para que se acueste un paciente, en donde el cuerpo comprende varillas de soporte y varillas medias; un extremo de las varillas de soporte está provisto con manijas; los bordes externos de los otros extremos de las varillas de soporte están provistos con roscas externas. Las varillas se disponen de forma que tienen una relación abisagrada entre sí, es decir, que se pueden doblar similar a una bisagra y se ubica un tramo del cuerpo de la camilla sobre el otro tramo, dejando de esta forma las manijas de los extremos de forma expuesta para facilitar el transporte de la misma. However, in the state of the art there is also another disclosure related to stretchers for first aid, which corresponds to document CN 203829163 which teaches a first aid tool, particularly a folding stretcher, which comprises a folding body and a surface soft which is arranged on the body of the stretcher and is for a patient to lie down, where the body comprises support rods and middle rods; one end of the support rods is provided with handles; the outer edges of the other ends of the support rods are provided with external threads. The rods are arranged so that they have a hinged relationship with each other, that is, they can be folded similar to a hinge and a section of the body of the stretcher is located on the other section, thus leaving the handles of the ends of Exposed form to facilitate the transport of the same.
No obstante, al igual que con los documentos anteriores mencionados previamente, el dispositivo descrito en esta anterioridad presenta la desventaja que se basa en dos varillas con una tela suave ubicada entre éstas, lo cual es indeseable a la hora de realizar el transporte de un paciente, al tiempo que no cuenta con ningún tipo de sistema para medición de los signos vitales, lo que se
traduce en una demora en la determinación de la condición del paciente, lo que puede ser vital. However, as with the previous documents mentioned above, the device described in the above presents the disadvantage that is based on two rods with a soft cloth located between them, which is undesirable when carrying out the transport of a patient. , while not having any type of system for measuring vital signs, which is translates into a delay in determining the patient's condition, which can be vital.
Finalmente, se encuentra el documento CN 2035981 16 que enseña una camilla con una función de monitoreo de los signos vitales en pacientes, donde la camilla comprende un cuerpo principal, un dispositivo de monitoreo de electrocardiograma, en donde el cuerpo está compuesto de una cara que soporta para camilla y un soporte de camilla, y el dispositivo de electrocardiograma comprende un sensor de tipo sin contacto y un monitor de electrocardiograma tipo mini conectado con el sensor, en donde el monitor tipo mini se fija a un extremo del soporte de camilla. Finally, document CN 2035981 16 shows a stretcher with a function of monitoring vital signs in patients, where the stretcher comprises a main body, an electrocardiogram monitoring device, where the body is composed of a face that It supports for a stretcher and a stretcher support, and the electrocardiogram device comprises a contactless type sensor and a mini type electrocardiogram monitor connected to the sensor, wherein the mini type monitor is fixed to one end of the stretcher support.
Sin embargo, aunque la camilla descrita en esta anterioridad permite la medición de signos vitales, la misma no puede ser transportada en cualquier espacio limitado al no ser plegable, sino que es una estructura rígida que no se puede doblar, lo cual es indeseable y limita su campo de operación. However, although the stretcher described in this section allows the measurement of vital signs, it cannot be transported in any limited space because it is not foldable, but it is a rigid structure that cannot be folded, which is undesirable and limits its field of operation
De acuerdo con lo anterior, se puede ver claramente que actualmente existe un problema relacionado con los accidentes, especialmente los de tránsito y los primeros auxilios que se pueden brindar cuando se presentan dichos accidentes, donde los primeros minutos son vitales para la supervivencia de la persona involucrada. Por esta razón, cuando un accidente se presenta no es posible
prestar dichos servicios ni monitorear el estado de la persona (sus signos vitales), ya que se requiere de un dispositivo o aparato especializado o de una persona con experiencia en este tema, lo cual no es fácil de conseguir y además, usualmente los vehículos no cuentan con un equipo de primeros auxilios, sino que por el contrario, cuentan con un botiquín o elementos para prestar un servicio que no involucre un estado crítico o la vida del paciente, razón por la cual la tasa de mortandad aumenta considerablemente en estos casos, al tiempo que no es posible contar con una camilla o un elemento para el transporte de las personas involucradas en el accidente. According to the above, it can be clearly seen that there is currently a problem related to accidents, especially traffic and first aid that can be provided when such accidents occur, where the first minutes are vital for the person's survival involved For this reason, when an accident occurs it is not possible provide such services or monitor the status of the person (their vital signs), since it requires a specialized device or device or a person with experience in this subject, which is not easy to achieve and also, usually the vehicles do not they have a first aid kit, but on the contrary, they have a first aid kit or elements to provide a service that does not involve a critical state or the patient's life, which is why the death rate increases considerably in these cases, At the same time it is not possible to have a stretcher or an element for the transport of the people involved in the accident.
A partir de la información anterior, también se puede que en el estado del arte existe una necesidad por diseñar e implementar un dispositivo portátil para el transporte de pacientes, preferiblemente de accidentes, donde dicho dispositivo corresponda a una camilla, la cual sea plegable y por tanto, se pueda doblar sobre sí misma y pueda ser transportada en espacios reducidos, al tiempo que permita contar con algún tipo de sistema o mecanismo para revisar el estado de salud del paciente, tal como una serie de medidores de signos vitales, con el fin que la persona que presta los primeros auxilios pueda determinar la condición de dicho paciente y así se pueda solicitar la respectiva ayuda. Además, es deseable que la camilla cuente con algún tipo de sistema para ubicarla en cualquier lugar remoto, tal como un sistema de posicionamiento que ayude al
equipo de rescate a llegar al sitio en un menor tiempo, ayudando a aumentar las posibilidades de supervivencia del paciente. From the above information, it may also be that in the state of the art there is a need to design and implement a portable device for the transport of patients, preferably of accidents, where said device corresponds to a stretcher, which is foldable and by therefore, it can be folded over itself and can be transported in confined spaces, while allowing for some type of system or mechanism to check the patient's health status, such as a series of vital signs meters, in order to that the person providing first aid can determine the condition of said patient and thus the respective help can be requested. In addition, it is desirable that the stretcher has some type of system to locate it in any remote place, such as a positioning system that helps the Rescue team arrive at the site in a shorter time, helping to increase the chances of patient survival.
Así las cosas, la presente invención resuelve el problema de una forma más eficiente, ya que corresponde a una camilla que es plegable y por lo tanto se puede almacenar en cualquier espacio reducido, tal como un botiquín o un espacio dentro de los vehículos sin molestar u ocupar un gran espacio, donde la camilla además es fabricada en un material que es muy resistente y rígido y permite que al desdoblarse se pueda utilizar como un elemento plano y rígido y con las correas para amarrar al paciente, se puede monitorear los signos vitales del mismo para así poder tomar decisiones que son vitales para la persona accidentada. Thus, the present invention solves the problem in a more efficient way, since it corresponds to a stretcher that is foldable and therefore can be stored in any small space, such as a medicine cabinet or a space inside the vehicles without disturbing u occupy a large space, where the stretcher is also made of a material that is very resistant and rigid and allows to unfold it can be used as a flat and rigid element and with the straps to tie the patient, vital signs can be monitored from it in order to make decisions that are vital for the injured person.
