JP3206761U - Air pack cushion for contracture - Google Patents

Abstract

The present invention provides a contracture-compatible air pack cushion that can be used in a narrow range of motion due to contracture to maintain the space and unconsciously obtain a massage effect by the force of contracting the muscles around the joint. To do. A plurality of air packs 2 are placed in a sock-like bag 1 and covered with the same sock-like bag. The sock-like bag entrance is elastically stretched and fixed to each other. Do not use straps, buttons, snaps, fasteners, etc., because the affected area is strongly rubbed by the pressure of contracture. [Selection] Figure 1

Description

  The present invention relates to an air cushion for use in those with strong contracture of each joint.

In life assistance such as diaper exchange and bathing for those who need nursing care, the range of motion is narrow due to joint contractures, and there is also a risk that assistance is difficult and fractures occur.
Therefore, the contracture section is always supported with a cushion or towel.

  When the contractures such as the side, hips, and knees are considerably advanced, the gaps for putting cushions and towels are narrow, making it difficult to adapt. In addition, when a person with dementia keeps touching and damaging the cushion, he wants to avoid the possibility of eating out the ingredients used inside.

  The present invention uses an air-filled plastic pack and puts it in a cloth sock-like bag or a cylindrical bag. The air pack is used to get a mutual cushion feeling by putting multiple items of a size that cannot be eaten or swallowed.

The air pack changes its shape to the force from the outside, the volume of the contents does not change, is elastic, and a plurality of air packs can move while contacting inside the bag.
This does not collapse too much like a low-resilience material when sandwiched in the contracture part, and can maintain the space by expanding the narrowed range of motion.
And you can get a massage effect that unconsciously relaxes with your own strength to contract the firm muscles.
When soiled due to incontinence, etc., cloths and air packs are inexpensive and can be selected and replaced quickly.
The sock-shaped bag of the exterior part is a slightly bent shape along the joint part, so that it does not use fasteners or buttons to cover the skin with the force of contracture, and it is covered with the same shape bag There is a type that ties in the middle, so that the air pack does not pop out easily even if pressure is applied.

  A plurality of air packs 2 are placed in the sock-like bag 1 shown in FIG. 1 and covered with the same sock-like bag. The sock-like bag entrance is elastically stretched and fixed to each other. Do not use straps, buttons, snaps, fasteners, etc., because the affected area is strongly rubbed by the pressure of contracture.

  FIG. 3 shows an example of using a sock-like air pack cushion. Since it is about 30 cm in size, it is suitable for contracting armpits and arms.

  FIG. 4 shows a cylindrical air pack cushion. The 80 cm centimeter-stitched tubular fabric bag is stitched at both ends and has a hole with rubber around it. From there, multiple air packs are placed on the left and right sides of the tubular bag.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the bag is lightly tied once, and the hole is closed to complete the V shape (FIG. 6).

  As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the V-shaped cylindrical air pack cushion is suitable for use between contracted knees or hip joints.

FIG. 11 is a structural diagram of an air pack cushion for grape type contracture.
As shown in FIG. 9, two to three air packs are put in a stocking-like net bag 4 to tie up the mouth, and a plurality of the net bags are put in a pillow-like bag 5 and are put on each other and used.

  If the bag is large, it will be biased by the force of contraction if only a large number of air packs are put in. Therefore, by wrapping several pieces in a net once, mutual friction occurs and the volume can be maintained. As shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, it is used for a part having a relatively large volume such as a distant part of the joint movable range.

Claims (4)

Put multiple air packs in a cloth sock-like bag or cylindrical bag, use it in a narrow part of the range of motion due to contracture, keep the space, unconscious with the force of contracting the muscles around the joint A contracted air pack cushion that provides a massage effect inside. To avoid dementia, avoid using sponges or urethane beads, and use an air pack that is large enough not to enter the mouth. Since the contracture affected areas are different, use different sizes of bags for air packs. Socks-like bags of a size suitable for relatively small places such as contracted sides and arms, the entrance part expands and contracts with rubber, and the socks-like bag of the same specification is put on the mouth with the air pack attached to each other Secured securely. To prevent injury, do not use buttons, snaps, fasteners, etc., because the affected area may always be rubbed strongly by pressure from contracture. A hole is made in a tubular cloth bag of about 80 cm in which both ends are stitched together, and rubber is put around the hole for use. Put multiple air packs from the holes on the left and right sides of the cylindrical bag and tie them together once. Suitable for relatively long and wide affected areas such as contracted knees and crotch. Put two or three air packs in a stocking net bag and tie the mouth, and use a plurality of the net bags in a cloth bag. Used for parts with a relatively wide range of motion.
