Abstract

The invention relates to a device making it possible to settle a patient in a correcting seated position and keep him/her there by eliminating the problems connected with sliding by slumping. It consists of a cushion C, on the front-upper edge of which there is fixed an anti-sliding anatomical stop A having a height which guarantees effectiveness even in the event of spasmodic contractions of the trunk. The second originality of this device consists of a rear strap B with rapid closure by velcro guaranteeing a reliable and rapid fixing on all types of seats. This type of technical aid is directed at old people having trouble staying in a static position, whether they are or are not in a specialised environment, at seriously ill patients requiring provisional aid (example: person with a head injury coming out of a coma), and at children whose pathology does not necessarily require the production of a moulded seat.

DES PERSONNES SUJETTES A DES TROUBLES DE MAINTIEN STATIQUE
.....................DESCRIPTION
DEVICE FOR HOLDING IN THE SITTING POSITION
PEOPLE SUBJECT TO STATIC MAINTENANCE DISORDERS
.....................

L'invention concerne un dispositif permettant d'installer un malade dans une position assise correcte et maintenu par élimination des problèmes liés au glissement par affaissement. The invention relates to a device for installing a patient in a correct sitting position and maintained by eliminating the problems associated with slipping by sagging.

Il est constitué d'un coussin (C) sur le bord antéro-supérieur duquel est fixé une butée anatomique antiglisse (A) dont la hauteur garantit l'efficacité même en cas de contractions spasmodiques du tronc. It consists of a cushion (C) on the antero-superior edge of which is fixed an anatomical anti-slip stop (A) whose height guarantees effectiveness even in the event of spasmodic contractions of the trunk.

La deuxième originalité de ce dispositif consiste en une sangle postérieure (B) à fermeture rapide par velcro garantissant une pose fiable et rapide sur tous types de sièges. The second originality of this device consists of a rear strap (B) with quick closing by velcro guaranteeing a reliable and fast installation on all types of seats.

Ce type d'aide technique s'adresse aux personnes âgées présentant des troubles de la statique, qu'elles soient ou non en milieu spécialisé, aux malades lourds ayant besoin d'une aide transitoire (exemple : traumatisé crânien sortant du coma), ainsi qu'aux enfants dont la pathologie ne nécessite pas obligatoirement la confection d'un siège moulé. This type of technical aid is intended for the elderly with static disorders, whether or not they are in a specialized environment, for the seriously ill who need transient aid (example: traumatic brain injury coming out of a coma), as well only to children whose pathology does not necessarily require the making of a molded seat.

Nous avons souvent observé que ces malades arrivaient, à partir d'une position assise correcte au départ, à glisser progressivement pour finir quelque fois à tomber assis sur les cales-pieds. Diverses tentatives pour maintenir ces malades sont faites : la plus courante consiste à les sangler au niveau de l'abdomen mais très rapidement, ces malades arrivent à glisser sous la sangle d'où risque de strangulation ; sans aborder les inconvénients de compression de ce système. We have often observed that these patients managed, from a correct seated position at the start, to slide gradually, sometimes ending up falling on the toe clips. Various attempts to keep these patients are made: the most common is to strap them in the abdomen but very quickly, these patients manage to slip under the strap where risk of strangulation; without addressing the drawbacks of compressing this system.

Nous avons donc recherché un système simple, permettant une assise stable au fond du fauteuil, la plus anatomique possible, en évitant la fixation par des sangles présentant les inconvénients pré-cités. Nous avons fixé une butée antiglisse à l'avant du coussin suffisamment haute pour qu'un malade présentant des contractions spasmodiques en extension du tronc ne puisse passer par dessus.  We therefore sought a simple system, allowing a stable seat at the bottom of the chair, as anatomical as possible, avoiding the fixing by straps having the aforementioned drawbacks. We fixed an anti-slip stop at the front of the cushion high enough so that a patient with spasmodic contractions in extension of the trunk could not pass over it.

A cette étape de notre recherche. nous nous sommes aperçus que certains malades parvenaient à glisser en emportant le coussin avec eux. Nous avons solutionné ce probième en intégrant au coussin un système e sangles postérieures permettant de solidariser le coussin avec e fauteuil roulant ou tout autre siège sur lequel est installé le malade. At this stage of our research. we noticed that some patients managed to slip by taking the cushion with them. We have solved this problem by incorporating a system of rear straps into the cushion allowing the cushion to be secured to the wheelchair or any other seat on which the patient is installed.

L'originalité de notre invention est de mettre, à la d-sposition du personnel scignant et des familles des @alades, un système d'installation simple, peu onéreux, pouvant se fixer sur différents sièges à domicile, ce qui permet de sortir le malade de son fauteuil roulant sans risque. Il a un caractère transitoire pour certains malades hospitalisés et peut, dans la mesure ou le revêtement est étanche, être @tilisé par plusieurs malades et être facilement entretenu. Avec son système de sangles postéieures, il présente une grande sécurité d'utilisation. The originality of our invention is to put, at the disposal of the staff and the families of @alades, a simple installation system, inexpensive, which can be fixed on different seats at home, which allows to take out the sick of his wheelchair safely. It is of a transient nature for certain hospitalized patients and can, as long as the covering is waterproof, be used by several patients and be easily maintained. With its rear strap system, it is very safe to use.

Selon plusieurs variantes envisagées, ce coussin peut être réalisé à des hauteurs différentes. 1 peut également recevoir une assise postérieure au niveau des points d'appuis classiques. en gel, eau, ou tout autre matériau anti-escarres.  According to several variants envisaged, this cushion can be produced at different heights. 1 can also receive a posterior seat at the level of conventional support points. in gel, water, or any other anti-decubitus material.

La butée antiglisse peut être ou non amovible pour permettre à un malade de recevoir le pistolet pour urinen sans être transféré sur un W.C. The anti-slip stopper may or may not be removable to allow a patient to receive the spray gun without being transferred to a W.C.

Selon plusieurs variantes envisagées, l'épaisseur du coussin de base pourra être conçue en diminution d'avant en arrière pour diminuer l'effet de tassement du sujet vers l'avant, augmentant le contact et l'appui contre la butée. According to several variants envisaged, the thickness of the base cushion may be designed to decrease from front to back to reduce the effect of compaction of the subject towards the front, increasing contact and pressing against the stop.
