Description

Description L'invention concerne un coussin d'aide aux retournements des personnes alitées ou en difficulté de mobilité physique.
On sait que dans les hôpitaux ou autre espace dédié à la santé, le personnel soignant se blesse régulièrement dû au positionnement de travail peu ergonomique et aux mouvements répétitifs dont celui de retourner les patients pour les aider à se changer, se nettoyer etc..
Notre coussin de retournement demi-lune sert donc à aider les personnes/
personnel aidant les individus/ patients qui ont de la mobilité réduite.
L'invention concerne un coussin de retournement demi-lune qui convient aux personnes âgées et aux patients qui ne peuvent pas prendre soin d'eux-mêmes ou sortir du lit pendant une longue période en raison de la paralysie des membres inférieurs, de faiblesse musculaire, ou la détérioration de la condition physique. Le coussin est de forme arrondi sur le dessous puis en remontant deux espaces séparés sont présents pour mettre les jambes.
Le coussin demi-lune est confectionné avec de la mousse (FOAM) pour coussin, assez épaisse et rigide afin de maintenir les membres inférieurs des personnes qui l'utilisent. Il est découpé de manière à pouvoir accueillir les deux jambes des personnes qui sont séparées par la mousse du coussin permettant d'encadrer chacune des jambes de chaque côté. Le coussin, pour une meilleure hygiène et par souci de désinfection est recouvert d'un tissu en polyuréthane accepté dans le domaine médical. Attaché à ce dernier, deux lanières épaisses permettant de l'attraper et d'aider le personnel soignant ou autre personne à
retourner l'individu alités sur le côté et ainsi éviter les risques de blessures pour les deux utilisateurs. Le proche aidant/ personnel soignant utilise alors le coussin pour à la fois préserver sa propre forme physique mais également pour aider la personne à
mobilité
réduite dans un plus grand confort et de manière plus sécuritaire.
