Abstract

An additional cushion is mounted on the mattress. Both mattress and cushion can be moulded to the contour of the patient while the granular material provides all-round support. After the mattress and cushion have been moulded to fit the patient, the mattress is evacuated. The additional cushion is connected by an opening (b) to the inside of the mattress. The cushion can be integral with the mattress or can have adhesive strips around its opening with which it is attached to the mattress.

Description

Vakuum-Matratzen dienen dazu, bei Frakturen die Transportfähigkeit des Patienten sicherzustellen.Vacuum mattresses are used to ensure the patient's transportability for fractures ensure.

Vakuum-Matratzen sind allgemein bekannt.Vacuum mattresses are well known.

Sie müssen, damit eine optimale Längsstabilität erreicht wird, mit viel Volumen (Granulatmasse) versehen werden. Dieser Zustand behindert die Modellierfähigkeit der Matratze im kritischen Halswirbel-Kopfbereich, so daß dort keine optimale Fixierung möglich ist. Es kann hierdurch sogar zu gesundheitlichen Komplikationen kommen.In order to achieve optimal longitudinal stability, you have to use a lot of volume (Granulate mass). This condition hampers the modeling ability the mattress in the critical cervical vertebrae area, so that there is no optimal Fixation is possible. This can even lead to health complications come.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einerseits eine erhöhte Längsstabilität der Vakuum-Matratze im Körperbereich zu erzielen, anderseits dabei die Modellier­ fähigkeit und somit optimale Fixierung der Halswirbel und des Kopfbereiches zu ermöglichen.The invention is based on the object, on the one hand, increased longitudinal stability to achieve the vacuum mattress in the body area, on the other hand the modeling ability and thus optimal fixation of the cervical vertebrae and the head area enable.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe gelöst, in dem im Halswirbel-Kopfbereich ein zusätzliches Modellierkissen [Fig. 1 Pos. a] mit geringerer Volumen-Modelliermasse (Granulatmasse) mit der Vakuum-Matratze [Fig. 1 Pos. c] verbunden wird.According to the invention, this object is achieved by connecting an additional modeling cushion [ FIG. 1 item a] with a lower volume modeling material (granulate material) to the vacuum mattress [ FIG. 1 item c] in the cervical vertebra head area.

Eine weitere Variante besteht darin, daß das Modellierkissen auch lösbar mit der Vakuum-Matratze verbunden ist.Another variant is that the modeling pillow can also be detached with the Vacuum mattress is connected.

Eine Öffnung [Fig. 1 Pos. b] zwischen Modellierkissen und Vakuum-Matratze bewirkt, daß beim Absaugvorgang der Vakuum-Matratze das Modellierkissen gleichzeitig mit abgesaugt wird.An opening [ Fig. 1 Item b] between the modeling pillow and vacuum mattress causes the modeling pillow to be sucked off at the same time as the vacuum mattress is being sucked off.

Fig. 2 zeigt die Anwendungsform beim Stabilisieren des Kopfes. Mit der unterhalb des Modellierkissens angebrachten Klettverbindung können die Seitenteile [Fig. 2 Pos. d] hinter dem Kopfbereich verbunden werden. Fig. 2 shows the application form when stabilizing the head. The side parts [ Fig. 2 Item d] behind the head area can be connected using the Velcro connection underneath the modeling cushion.

Fig. 3 Pos. e zeigt eine Ausführungsform des Modellierkissens, bei der verletzungsbedingt nicht der ganze Kopfbereich abgedeckt werden kann. Fig. 3 Pos. E shows an embodiment of the modeling pillow, in which the entire head area can not be covered due to injury.

Fig. 4 zeigt eine Ausführungsform des Modellierkissens, bei der nur der Halswirbelbereich fixiert werden kann. FIG. 4 shows an embodiment of the modeling cushion in which only the cervical vertebra area can be fixed.
