Description

Dispositivo de soporte de piernas y empuñadura de manos para mesa de parto.Leg support and grip device from hands to delivery table.

Object of the invention

Las extremidades de la parturienta desempeñan un papel fundamental en la biomecánica del parto hospitalario. La finalidad del presente modelo de utilidad es dotar a la mesa de parto de los elementos necesarios para: a) optimizar la acción de las fuerzas de las mencionadas extremidades; b) mejorar la comodidad de la parturienta y c) facilitar la intervención obstétrica cuando sea necesaria.The limbs of the parturient play a fundamental role in the biomechanics of hospital birth. The The purpose of this utility model is to provide the table with delivery of the necessary elements to: a) optimize the action of the forces of the mentioned limbs; b) improve comfort of the parturient and c) facilitate obstetric intervention when is necessary.

Background of the invention

En la actualidad las mesas de parto disponen de elementos destinados al soporte de las piernas y al agarre de las manos, pero presentan los siguientes inconvenientes:At present the delivery tables have elements intended for the support of the legs and the grip of the hands, but have the following disadvantages:

a) La mayoría de los soportes de las piernas carecen de plataformas para apoyar los pies, asentando las piernas solamente sobre las pantorrillas y quedando los pies fuera de los mencionados soportes. Consecuentemente, al no poder presionar con los pies, la parturienta no puede emplear, en toda su amplitud, la fuerza de las piernas.a) Most leg supports lack platforms to support the feet, seating the legs only on the calves and leaving the feet outside the mentioned supports. Consequently, unable to press with the feet, the parturient cannot use, in all its amplitude, the leg strength

b) La media caña de los soportes es muy plana. Y, para evitar que las piernas se salgan de los mencionados soportes, es necesario la utilización de cintas o correas de sujeción, provocando en la parturienta problemas físicos y psicológicos.b) The half round of the supports is very flat. And, to prevent the legs from getting out of those mentioned supports, it is necessary to use tapes or belts restraint, causing physical problems in the midwife and Psychological

c) Consecuentemente a la falta de apoyo de los pies, las piernas se deslizan hacia adelante y el borde posterior de los soportes se clavan en los muslos. Y, además, se provoca un deslizamiento no deseado de la parturienta sobre el borde anterior de la mesa, quedando la mujer en una molesta postura.c) Consequently to the lack of support of feet, legs slide forward and the back edge of the brackets are stuck in the thighs. And, in addition, a unwanted sliding of the parturient over the leading edge from the table, leaving the woman in an annoying posture.

d) Algunas mesas presentan plataformas para apoyar los pies, pero los soportes no garantizan la estabilidad de las piernas, creando problemas a la hora de aplicar la anestesia epidural y la técnica obstétrica.d) Some tables present platforms for support the feet, but the supports do not guarantee the stability of the legs, creating problems when applying anesthesia Epidural and obstetric technique.

e) Los elementos de agarres de las manos son fijos, generalmente de forma inadecuadas, y están ubicados incorrectamente. Consecuentemente, la parturienta no puede utilizar debidamente la fuerza de sus brazos.e) The hand grip elements are fixed, usually improperly, and are located incorrectly. Consequently, the parturient cannot use duly the strength of his arms.

En definitiva, estos elementos dificultan la biomecánica del parto y crean en la parturienta serios problemas de incomodidad.In short, these elements make it difficult to biomechanics of childbirth and create in the parturient serious problems of discomfort.

Description of the invention

El dispositivo de la invención es doble (para los dos laterales de la mesa de parto), y consta de: a) un soporte de la pierna con plataforma para apoyar el pie, b) una empuñadura regulable para agarrarse con la mano, c) unas barras de conexión de ambos elementos entre sí y de inserción del dispositivo a la mesa de parto.The device of the invention is twofold (for the two sides of the delivery table), and consists of: a) a support of the leg with platform to support the foot, b) a handle Adjustable to hold by hand, c) connecting rods of both elements of each other and inserting the device to the table of Birth.

a) El soporte de la pierna es una estructura laminar en forma de media caña, cerrada en su parte anterior por una plataforma destinada al apoyo de la planta del pie. Se ha tenido en cuenta dos características fundamentales: por un lado, que el borde superior de la media caña tenga una altura suficiente para dar estabilidad a la pierna sin necesidad de elementos de sujeción, y, por otro lado, que el borde posterior del soporte no contacte con el muslo de la parturienta, para evitar molestas presiones.a) The leg support is a structure laminar in the form of a half cane, closed in its front part by a platform for the support of the sole of the foot. It has been had in It has two fundamental characteristics: on the one hand, that the edge upper half-round is tall enough to give leg stability without the need for fasteners, and, on the other hand, that the back edge of the support does not contact the parturient's thigh, to avoid annoying pressures.

b) La empuñadura es un tubo ligeramente curvo con una funda de caucho. Está unido, en su parte inferior, a dos láminas paralelas que dejan entre sí un espacio en el que se aloja una barra rectangular. Las láminas se pueden deslizar por la barra, y, de esta manera la empuñadura se adapta a la longitud de brazos de la parturienta.b) The handle is a slightly curved tube With a rubber case. It is attached, in its lower part, to two parallel sheets that leave each other a space in which it is housed a rectangular bar The sheets can slide along the bar, and, in this way the handle adapts to the length of arms of The parturient

c) Las barras de conexión son:c) The connection bars are:

\bullet Una superior, cilíndrica, de posición vertical. El extremo superior termina en una esfera que se aloja en la rótula de unión con el soporte. Esta rótula permite movilizar el soporte en distintas direcciones. Al apretar la mencionada rótula se endurece o se bloquea el movimiento.An upper, cylindrical, position vertical. The upper end ends in a sphere that is housed in the tie ball joint with the support. This kneecap allows to mobilize the Support in different directions. When tightening the mentioned kneecap, stiffens or blocks movement.

\bullet Una media, rectangular, de posición horizontal, unida en ángulo recto con la superior. Se trata de la barra, expuesta en el apartado b), sobre la que se desliza la empuñadura.An average, rectangular, position horizontal, joined at right angles to the upper one. It's about the bar, exposed in section b), on which the handle.

\bullet Una inferior, cilíndrica, de posición vertical, unida en ángulo recto con la media. Esta barra tiene la finalidad de insertar el dispositivo a la mesa de parto.A lower, cylindrical, position vertical, joined at right angles to the average. This bar has the purpose of inserting the device to the delivery table.
