Description

A medical device intended for prenatal preparation and regeneration of muscles after delivery

Technical field

The technical solution concerns a medical device intended for pre-natal preparation and muscle regeneration after delivery.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

So far, pregnant women use similar aids in pre-natal preparation, where the shape and the same wall thickness of the balloon does not allow stretching of the balloon wall to length and subsequent exercise of a wider group of muscles. While exercising, the woman must hold the balloon.

The essence of the technical solution

These deficiencies are largely eliminated by the medical device on the basis of a different anatomically shaped balloon. As the air pressure inside the balloon increases, the circumference of both chambers increases unevenly. The larger part of the balloon is characterized by a thin wall, which allows the balloon to stretch to length and to practice a wider group of muscles. This shape also contributes to comfort during exercise. Zena doesn't have to hold his ball.

A medical device designed to give birth and recovery of muscles after delivery can greatly facilitate the birth of a woman. It is a medical device that, at the very beginning, serves to help a woman discover her pelvic floor, its strength and understand the principle on which it works. The medical device serves for pre-natal preparation and regeneration of muscles after delivery. It is designed to practice pelvic floor muscles after delivery.

The essence of the technical solution of the medical device is to enlarge the peripheral wall of the interconnected chambers of the inflatable part of the device located partly inside and partly outside the vagina. The advantageous technical solution of the shape of the two chambers of the inflatable device in conjunction with the variable thickness of the circumferential wall of both chambers of the inflatable device enables an effective exercise of the labor paths and pelvic floor muscles.

The medical device has been designed and manufactured to prepare the pelvic floor muscles and the birth canal to give birth to the newborn and to regenerate the muscles after delivery. It is intended for gradual mechanical stretching of the birth canal and exercising of pelvic floor muscles in the period of 3 weeks before the delivery date.

The medical device effectively helps strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, positively stimulates the vaginal muscles and exercises alternately stretching and loosening the perineum during pre-natal preparation. The result is easier ejection of the future newborn (simpler and faster course of the ejection phase during labor), shortening of the 2nd stage of labor and significantly reducing the risk of perineal embankment. The use of post-partum medical equipment regenerates the pelvic muscles, limiting the leakage of urine immediately after birth and the possibility of incontinence later.

The medical device is intended for strengthening the pelvic floor, thus preventing painful injury to the perineum. It can be used in antenatal preparation as well as in the postpartum period, but can also be used for incontinence exercises. The whole principle of the method consists in performing exercises that take place in the pre-natal period in three stages. First in the pelvic floor exercise, then in stretching exercises and finally it is a stimulation exercise.

The advantage of this technical solution is mainly the reduction of surgical interventions during delivery - episiotomy, reduction of the risk of consequences after delivery, as well as prevention of the pelvic floor decrease, which is directly related to later urinary incontinence.

A perineal episiotomy is a surgical perineal perineal (an area between the vagina and anus) performed exclusively during the second stage of labor. Its purpose is to enlarge the vaginal opening and protect the woman from spontaneous rupture in the perineum. However, the dyke can be very uncomfortable - it is often a bad healing and the later consequences of pain during

Ul emptying, limited love life, necessity of plastic surgery of the perineum, incontinence at a later age, blood loss at delivery and more. There are cases where an episiotomy is inevitable or beneficial, accelerating the birth of a child who has difficulty (mainly breathing), the birth of an unborn fetus, facilitating the pelvic end of labor, widening the very narrow vaginal opening. However, in most births with local massage applied and push control, the vaginal tissue expands easily and returns to its original position. And when it happens to naturally tear, the wound is less and less painful than surgical incision, and usually requires fewer stitches than episiotomy. In addition, there is less risk of infection with natural tearing than with episiotomy.

By gradually expanding the perineum, the medical device will prepare the woman for childbirth without cutting or with minimal cuts.

Summary of advantages of the technical solution:

- significantly lower risk of tearing or shearing of the perineum during delivery

- significant shortening of the second stage of labor

- reduced need for pain medication

- less pressure on the head of the newborn during the expulsion phase

- More comfort, less stress and fear of childbirth

- fetal ejection training

- strengthening of pelvic floor muscles after delivery Clarification of the drawing

The technical solution will be explained in more detail by means of the drawing, in which FIG. 1 shows the medical device according to the technical solution, in which its individual parts are shown, FIG. 2 shows the inserted deflated balloon in the vagina. shows the deployment phase of the inflated balloon.

Examples of technical solutions

The medical device of Fig. 1 consists of an anatomically shaped balloon of sanitary silicone I (Momentive 2021 silicone rubber, hardness 25 ° Sh A), which is located on a connecting insert 2 (ABS plastic) onto which the inlet tube 4 ( at the end of which is located a manual mechanical pump 3 (latex) with an air-sealable valve 5 (chromium-plated zinc alloy).

Fig. 2 shows the balloon with a larger rounded part (approx. 7 cm) in the vagina. The balloon is placed partly inside the vagina and partly outside the vagina. For better insertion, it is recommended to first inflate the balloon with one or two presses. Giant. 3 shows the balloon in an inflated state where pressure is exerted on the surrounding musculature and the perineum. The number of presses is low at the first application (1 to 5 presses). The air pressure inside the balloon increases and the circumference of both chambers increases unevenly. In further exercises, the perimeter increases gradually to the recommended value of 28 to 30 cm. Giant. 4 shows the expulsion of the balloon under pressure on the pelvic floor muscle region. The balloon slightly stretches the dam and then slips out of the vagina.
