Vorrichtung zur hautverträglichen Befestigung von Behandlungselementen der Akupunktur-Therapie am Ohr von PatientenDevice for the skin-friendly attachment of treatment elements in acupuncture therapy at the patient's ear
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung, mittels welcher Behandlungselemente der Akupunktur-Therapie am Ohr von Patienten für eine längere Behandlungsperiode festhaftend anbringbar sind, ohne daß ein Infektionsrisiko besteht.The invention relates to a device by means of which treatment elements of acupuncture therapy on the ear of Patients can be securely attached for a longer treatment period without the risk of infection.
Bei einer Reihe von organischen Erkrankungen oder funktioneilen Störungen, insbesondere bei akuten oder chronischen Schmerζzuständen, hat es sich nach erfahrungsmedizinischen Erkenntnissen als sinnvoll herausgestellt, bestimmte Akupunkturpunkte am menschlichen Körper entweder besonders intensiv oder aber lang anhaltend zu beeinflussen. So läßt sich beispielsweise durch EIektroakupunktur ein deutlich besserer analgetischer Effekt erzielen als durch die Nadelung allein, wie vielfältige Untersuchungen auf dem Gebiet der Anasthesiologie gezeigt haben.For a number of organic diseases or functional disorders, especially acute or chronic ones Painful states, according to medical experience Findings turned out to be useful, certain acupuncture points on the human body either in particular intensive or long-lasting influence. For example, electroacupuncture can be used to make a clear achieve a better analgesic effect than by needling alone, as has been shown by various examinations on the In the field of anesthesiology.
Die Dauer einer derartigen Therapie ist jedoch aus naheliegenden Gründen begrenzt, wodurch sich diese nicht in optimaler Weise zur Behandlung chronischer Schmerzen und anderer Störungen eignet bzw. häufige Wiederholungen erforderlich macht.However, the duration of such therapy is limited for obvious reasons, which means that it is not in ideal for the treatment of chronic pain and other disorders or frequent repetitions makes necessary.
Eine weitere Möglichkeit, bestimmte Punkte oder Areale der Körperoberfläche im Rahmen der Akupunktur-Behandlung intensiv und nachhaltig zu beeinflussen, besteht in der Anbringung von Permanentmagneten auf der Haut des Patienten mittels Heftpflastern, da das Magnetfeld und das elektromagnetische Feld im vorliegenden Zusammenhang gleichsinnig wirken.Another possibility to intensify certain points or areas of the body surface as part of the acupuncture treatment and to influence it sustainably consists in the attachment of permanent magnets on the patient's skin by means of adhesive plasters, since the magnetic field and the electromagnetic In the present context act in the same direction.
\ \Γ Als Nachteil einer derartigen Befestigung von Permanentmagneten ist jedoch anzusehen, daß die Heftpflasterstreifen sehr häufig entzündliche Hautveränderungen hervorrufen, welche zur Unterbrechung der Behandlung oder bei Sensibilisierung sogar zum Abbruch der Therapie zwingen. Eine permanente, sich über einen längeren Zeitraum erstreckende Behandlung, wie sie bei manchen Erkrankungen, beispielsweise bei chronischen Schmerzen erforderlich oder wünschenswert wäre, ist somit häufig nicht durchführbar.\ \ Γ As a disadvantage of such an attachment of permanent magnets However, it should be noted that the adhesive plaster strips very often cause inflammatory skin changes, which force the treatment to be interrupted or, in the case of sensitization, even to discontinue the therapy. A permanent Treatment that extends over a longer period of time, as is the case with some diseases, for example would be necessary or desirable in the case of chronic pain, is therefore often not feasible.
Gänzlich abzuraten ist schließlich von der gelegentlich angewandten Applikation sogenannter VerweiInadeln im Rahmen der Ohrakupunktur, da hiermit im Vergleich zur herkömmlichen Nadelung ein erheblich höheres Infektionsrisiko verbunden ist. Solche Infektionen verursachen Entzündungen des Ohrknorpels, die in den meisten Fällen die Bildung eines sog. "Blumenkohlrohrs", d.h. eine völlige und iireversible Deformierung der Ohrmuschel, zur Folge haben (vgl. König, Wancura, "Einführung in die chinesische Ohrakupunktur", Heidelberg 1973,5. Auflage, S. 40).Finally, it is entirely inadvisable to use it occasionally Application of so-called VerweiInadeln in the context of ear acupuncture, as this is compared to conventional Needling is associated with a significantly higher risk of infection. Such infections cause inflammation of the ear cartilage, which in most cases the formation of a so-called "cauliflower tube", i.e. a complete and irreversible one Deformation of the auricle (cf. König, Wancura, "Introduction to Chinese Ear Acupuncture", Heidelberg 1973.5. Edition, p. 40).
Auch magnetisierbare, aus ferromagnetischen Metallen bestehende Dauernadeln, wie sie gelegentlich am sogenannten "Hungerpunkt" am Tragus des Ohres zum Zweck einer Verminderung des Appetits eines Patienten appliziert werden, besitzen dieses erhöhte Infektionsrisiko.Also magnetizable, made of ferromagnetic metals Permanent needles, as they are occasionally found at the so-called "hunger point" on the tragus of the ear for the purpose of reduction the appetite of a patient are applied, have this increased risk of infection.
Vorrichtungen, welche eine Dauertherapie im Rahmen der Ohrakupunktur ohne jegliches Risiko entzündlicher Veränderungen der Haut oder des Ohrknorpels gestatten,sind bisher nicht bekanntgeworden.Devices that provide long-term therapy in the context of ear acupuncture without any risk of inflammatory changes allow the skin or the ear cartilage, have not yet become known.
Λ Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung zu schaffen, welche es ermöglicht, bestimmte Akupunkturpunkte am menschlichen Ohr eines Patienten während eines Λ The invention has the object to provide a device which enables certain acupuncture points on the human ear of a patient during a
längeren Zeitraums zu therapieren, jedoch ohne daß ein Risiko hinsichtlich einer Infektion oder entzündlichen Veränderung der Haut oder des Ohrknorpelgewebes besteht, welche ferner in der Handhabung möglichst einfach ist und schließlich auch geeignet ist, die Kosten solcher Behandlungen zu senken.treatment for a longer period of time, but without the risk of infection or inflammation There is a change in the skin or the ear cartilage tissue, which is also as simple as possible to handle and Finally, it is also suitable for reducing the costs of such treatments.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch eine klebstofffreie, am Ohr des Patienten ansetzbare Klemmhalterung gelöst, welche kraft- und/oder formstihlüssig am Ohr anbringbar ist und an welcher wenigstens ein auf einen Akupunkturpunkt auflegbarer Permanentmagnet befestigt ist.This object is achieved according to the invention by an adhesive-free, Clamping holder that can be attached to the patient's ear is released, which can be attached to the ear in a force-fitting and / or form-fitting manner and to which at least one permanent magnet that can be placed on an acupuncture point is attached.
Weitere Merkmale der gemäß der Erfindung ausgebildeten Vorrichtung gehen aus den Unteransprüchen und der nachstehenden Beschreibung einiger bevorzugter Ausführungsbeispiele hervor, welche in den Figuren 1 bis 5 der Zeichnung dargestellt sind.Further features of the device embodied according to the invention emerge from the subclaims and the following Description of some preferred exemplary embodiments which are shown in Figures 1 to 5 of the drawing.
Die Figuren 1 bis 4 zeigen unterschiedliche, def Kontur des Ohres an verschiedenen Stellen jeweils entsprechend angepaßte Klemmhalterungen.Figures 1 to 4 show different, def contour of the Ear at different points each appropriately adapted clamp brackets.
Figur 5 zeigt eine Ansicht einer an ein Ohr angesetzten Klemmhalterung in einer weiteren Aus* führungsform.FIG. 5 shows a view of a clamp holder attached to an ear in a further embodiment.
f/ Wie aus den Figuren 1 bis 3 hervorgeht, besteht die erfindungsgemäß ausgebildete Klemmhalterung 11 aus einem aus federndem Werkstoff bestehenden Bügel 12, an dessen einen Schenkel ein kleiner scheibenförmiger Permanentmagnet 14 Befestigt ist. Am freien Ende des zweiten Schenkels 13 des Bügels 12 ist eine kleine Auflagescheibe 16 befestigt, durch die der Anpreßdruck auf eine größere Fläche der Auflagestelle verteilt wird. f / As can be seen from FIGS. 1 to 3, the clamp bracket 11 designed according to the invention consists of a bracket 12 made of resilient material, on one leg of which a small disk-shaped permanent magnet 14 is attached. At the free end of the second leg 13 of the bracket 12, a small support disk 16 is attached, through which the contact pressure is distributed over a larger area of the support point.
Bei der Ausführungsform nach Figur 4 befinden sich an den Enden der beiden Schenkel 131 bzw. 15' des Bügels 12· je ein Permanentmagnet 14', so daß eine bestimmte Ohrpartie an der Anlagestelle der Klemmhalterung zwischen den beiden Permanentmagneten 14' liegt. Sinnvollerweise sind die sich einander gegenüberliegenden Permanentmagnete 14' mit ihren Polflächen derart angeordnet, daß sie einander anziehen. Dadurch wird die Klemmvorrichtung noch fester an das Ohr angedrückt. Die beiden Permanentmagnete 14 wirken somit gleichsinnig zur Federkraft des Bügels 12'.In the embodiment according to FIG. 4, a permanent magnet 14 'is located at the ends of the two legs 13 1 and 15' of the bracket 12, so that a certain part of the ear is at the contact point of the clamp between the two permanent magnets 14 '. The permanent magnets 14 'opposite one another are expediently arranged with their pole faces in such a way that they attract one another. As a result, the clamping device is pressed even more firmly against the ear. The two permanent magnets 14 thus act in the same direction as the spring force of the bracket 12 '.
Wie die Figuren 1 bis 4 erkennen lassen, ist die Form der Bügel 12, 12' der Kontur des Ohres angepaßt, und zwar jeweils im Hinblick darauf, an welcher Stelle des Ohres die Klemmhalterung angebracht werden soll, damit der Permanentmagnet an dem in Betracht kommenden Akupunkturpunkt zu liegen kommt.As can be seen in FIGS. 1 to 4, the shape of the temples 12, 12 'is adapted to the contour of the ear, specifically each with a view to where on the ear the clamp bracket should be attached so that the Permanent magnet comes to rest on the acupuncture point in question.
Bei der Ausführungsform nach Figur 5 besteht die Klemmhalterung 21 wiederum aus einem den Rand des Ohres umgreifenden, aus federndem Werkstoff bestehenden Bügel 22, an dessen einen Schenkel 23 eine dünnwandige, vorzugsweise transparente, formbeständige Platte 24 befestigt ist, welche mit der Oberflächenkontur des Ohres an der Auflagestelle kongruent ist. An der Platte 24 ist an entsprechender, in Betracht kommender Stelle ein Permanentmagnet 25 angeordnet, der auf dem vorbestimmten Akupunkturpunkt aufliegt.In the embodiment according to FIG. 5, there is a clamp bracket 21, in turn, consists of a bracket 22 that encompasses the edge of the ear and is made of resilient material, on one leg 23 of which a thin-walled, preferably transparent, dimensionally stable plate 24 is attached, which is congruent with the surface contour of the ear at the point of support. On the plate 24 is a corresponding, in A permanent magnet 25 is arranged at the point in question and rests on the predetermined acupuncture point.
Die Platte 24 ist jeweils der Form des Ohres des Patienten entsprechend geformt. Sie ist beispielsweise mittels eines Gipsabdrucks in an sich bekannter und üblicher Weise herstellbar. The plate 24 is each the shape of the patient's ear shaped accordingly. It can be produced, for example, by means of a plaster cast in a known and customary manner.
Die Verwendung einer derartigen Klemmhalterung hat den Vorteil, daß für diese ein absolut einwandfreier, lagerunveränderbarer Sitz gewährleistet ist, so daß der Permanentmagnet 25 exakt an der vorbestimmten Stelle aufliegt.The use of such a clamp bracket has the advantage that it is absolutely flawless and cannot be changed in position Seat is ensured so that the permanent magnet 25 rests exactly at the predetermined point.
Soweit bei Patienten der Wunsch besteht, daß die ständig am Ohr getragene Klemmhalterung nicht unmittelbar erkennbar sein soll, können an ihr dekorative Ornamente angebracht sein, wie sie von als Ohrclips gearbeiteten Schmuckstücken bekannt sind.Insofar as there is a wish among patients that they are constantly on The ear-worn clamp bracket should not be immediately recognizable, decorative ornaments can be attached to it be like that of jewelry made as clip-on earrings are known.
