FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the central block engaging the four-part support of the right leg.

FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the central prong engaging the lateral support of the left leg.

FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a sole support for one lower limb.

FIG. 6 is a perspective view of a single central block.

The central block (1) of the system of the invention shown in the accompanying drawings has an overall hexahedral shape. , the two sides (2a), (2b) diverge outwards and converge towards the patient. ing.

The angle formed by the two sides (2a) and (2b) is determined by the conditions of use and depends on the user and may vary depending on the patient's morphological conditions and the individual case as well as the doctor's specifications. A set of central blocks with different angles can be used.

Preferably, the central block has an elastic compressible half for comfortable contact with the patient's body. Made of soft foam plastic.

Referring to Figures 1 to 4, place the upper side (3a) on the hexahedral block and the bed surface. There is a lower tsuba side (3b).

These two horizontal planes are connected by the side surfaces (2a) and (2b).

There is a rectangular surface on the outer end (far end) side of the block, and a rectangular front surface (4) on the patient side. There is.

Referring to Figure 1.2, set the side supports against the sides 2a, 2)+ of the block. to

The two side supports are made of foamed plastic coated with continuous synthetic resin. It is a long body of compressible soft material such as There are surfaces <6) and (6°), and the surfaces (6) and (6°) are concave as a whole. (See Figures 1 to 4, 9) Preferably, the surfaces (6), (6") have a substantially flat horizontal surface (6a). , with a quarter cylinder concave surface (6b) as its outer extension.

Each lateral support <5>, (5-) is placed after the bending of the patient's leg from the back of the heel to the tip of the heel. Supports the part up to the surface, Therefore, as can be seen from Figure 1, the heel is outward and the overall surface is concave. The patient is comfortably and stably supported by the supporting surface (6).

Also, the angle formed by both legs is the angle formed by the vertical planes corresponding to the sides (2a) and (2b). Determined by the angle, the patient's legs are stably supported by the lateral supports and lengthened postoperatively. Injuries that can cause dislocation in patients who must rest supine for extended periods of time Proper positioning is completely prevented.

Furthermore, referring to Figures 1 to 4, the side supports (5) and (5゛〉) are similar to the central block The length is also a little shorter, so the feet can be placed outside of the supports (5) and (5゛). Allow the foot to move freely, but be careful not to turn the foot inward using blocks (2a) and (2b). It can be done.

Furthermore, each support surface 6 of the side supports has a far end (7 ) to the proximal end (8), which is the support of the hikagami.

Therefore, the patient's legs are kept at a certain angle to promote blood circulation.

Slanted surfaces (9), (9-) from the side support support part (8) toward the center extends, and its end is almost flush with the surface where the system is installed (bed surface). the proximal end of the inclined surface (9) terminates at the level of the front surface (4).

The inclined surface serves as a support for the posterior surface of the patient's hip, and the entire lower leg is supported by the inclined surface. Can be positioned comfortably.

The support in the modified embodiment shown in FIG. 5 is substantially the same as that of the previous embodiment. Features: The support (5-) has a generally elongated concave shape in the form of a cylindrical segment. Correct positioning and stable support of the patient's leg by plane (6°); previous embodiment Similar to the above, there is a slope from the far end (7゛) to the near end (8゛) of the same support. A sloped surface (9-) supporting the rear surface of the thigh extends toward the patient.

According to experiments conducted by the applicant, the system of the present invention has the various advantages mentioned above. It was confirmed that z2 is true.

As mentioned earlier, a patient who slept on the bed for a considerable period of time after undergoing surgery, For patients who have undergone total or partial joint replacement surgery, the present invention By correctly positioning and stably supporting the patient's lower limbs through the Dislocation can be prevented.

Blood circulation can be improved by raising the ends of the legs.
