Abstract
The utility model provides a fixing device for carpal tunnel syndrome, including supporting the main part, it links to each other with a wrist sheath to support the main part, just support the main part set up in the palm side of wrist sheath. The fixing brace solves the technical problems that a fixing brace for carpal tunnel syndrome in the prior art is hard in material, poor in comfort, easy to cause accidental injury at night and the like.
Description
Technical Field
The utility model is suitable for a medical instrument technical field, more specifically relate to a fixing device for carpal tunnel syndrome.
Background
Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common peripheral nerve entrapment of the upper limb, often significantly affecting the quality of life of the patient. The early carpal tunnel syndrome needs conservative treatment, wherein an important treatment means is to wear a wrist joint brace at night and keep the wrist joint in a neutral position or a slight dorsal extension position so as to avoid over-extension and over-flexion of the wrist joint, which leads to the increase of pressure in the carpal tunnel and further aggravates the clamping pressure of the median nerve. Currently, finished wristbands and custom wrist-fitted palm braces are commonly used and are constructed of low temperature thermoplastic material or lined metal panels to ensure the wrist joint is neutral. Although the existing brace can control the wrist joint to be in a neutral position or a slight dorsal extension position, the comfort of wearing of a patient is poor due to the high hardness of the material and the lining of the cotton pad, and the sleep of the patient is affected when the brace is worn at night, so that the brace is difficult to be worn for a long time and has high abandon rate. Many patients eventually require surgical treatment, greatly increasing the medical cost expenditure to society.
The carpal tunnel syndrome brace applied at present is a hard carpal palm support made of low-temperature thermoplastic material or lining metal plates. The wrist joint is fixed at the position of the wrist joint with neutral or slight dorsal extension mainly by a hard material placed on the palm side, but the metacarpophalangeal joint and the interphalangeal joint of the hand are not involved. Thus, the main disadvantages of the hard material carpometacarpal rest include the following:
1. the material is hard, and the comfort level is poor: although both the low temperature thermoplastic sheet and the metal sheet are lined with cotton to improve the comfort of wear. But because the hard material is hard, the wrist joint of the patient can not be jogged when wearing the wrist-.
2. The metacarpophalangeal and interphalangeal joints are not properly supported: when the wrist-palm support brace is worn, the metacarpophalangeal joints and the interphalangeal joints are not fixed, so that the brace is not supported. When sleeping, if the metacarpophalangeal joints and the proximal interphalangeal joints of the hand can give proper support on the palm side, the wearing comfort of the fixing device is obviously improved.
3. The night easily causes accidental injury: when sleeping, the human body is in an unconscious state, and the person or nearby persons can be injured by wearing the hard fixing device, so that the risk of accidental injury is increased.
