Abstract

The invention relates to intensive care units of hospitals, Physical Therapy Rehabilitation Centers, 5 home patient care, patients who are not bedridden and have vascular insufficiency problems.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD Intensive care units of hospitals, Physiotherapy Rehabilitation Centers, vascular insufficiency problem in home care, not dependent on bed relates to patients with

KNOWN STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE At present, the foot is in the dorsal flexion, that is, the foot from the ankle towards the body. To provide passive exercise movement in patients with loss of strength in pulling movement, embolism (intravenous) To reduce the risk of embolism in patients at risk of blood clot movement is used. In addition, passive exercise for patients with loss of strength When the physical therapy method is not done adequately, the ankles of the patients it develops permanent contractures, that is, joint stiffness. Available antiembolic stockings cannot effectively eliminate the risk of embolism.

Antiembolism socks and Kendall pneumatic systems available in the market socks, recovery pump socks and similar products. Antiembolism for clinical use effect only by squeezing the applied leg, without a stroking motion in the socks does not provide sufficient benefit. Therefore, working with this system Despite the use of stockings, it is seen that the embolism problem is not resolved.

Kendall pneumatic socks, on the other hand, are non-wearable, wrapped around the leg and held with velcro. More pressure in the lower balloon system, which tightens the leg with 3 separate manson systems, stroking up enough blood using less pressure in the balloon system It is a system that cannot do its job adequately. Pneumatic balloon system starts to inflate a certain period of time, when the velcro fastening can be opened and due to use. Then these Velcros wear out and lose their functionality, in the 3-stage system. It has insufficient effect because it causes inflation. However, in sedentary patients passive exercise cannot prevent movement and contracture. Another in the field The Recovery pump sock system, which is a system, can be worn with zippers and has single legs. It is a system that can fuck in one move. In this system, Kendall pneumatic socks system As it is, it cannot perform the patting process with sufficient effect.

Objectives of the Invention An aim of the invention is; by wrapping the leg up to 360 degrees and distal (lower leg level) to the proximal (upper level of the leg), inflating with a sequential system It is to minimize the formation of embolism by making a stroking movement.

Another purpose of the invention; dorsoflexion with the pneumatic system on the sole of the foot It both prevents the development of contracture by forcing the patient to available by making adequate muscle stimulation (stimulation) with the flexion movement. is to reduce motor deficit (loss of power).

Another purpose of the invention is; Working with wearable pneumatic system simultaneous therapy that allows him to receive physical therapy and minimizes the risk of embolism. It is a drug that increases the patient's comfort of life by preventing the formation of contractures. is the system. With this wearable pneumatic system, the patient wants, whenever he wants. It is to receive physical therapy assistance without the need for the help of a physiotherapist.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The invention is aimed at eliminating the above-mentioned disadvantages and providing the relevant technical field. developed to bring new advantages, those with vascular insufficiency problems relates to patients.

The system ensures that the pressurized fluid supplied to the sock inflates first of the sole part of the sock. while providing the upward movement of the forefoot and toes, It also performs the stroking process on the leg by inflating sequentially from bottom to top. is performing. drawings The invention briefly summarized above and discussed in more detail below. embodiments of the invention correspond to exemplary embodiments of the invention depicted in the accompanying drawings. can be understood by pressing. However, the accompanying drawings are only typical of this invention. and the invention therefore describes other equally effective applications. not be deemed to limit its scope, as it may allow applications must be specified.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION In the invention, wearing socks (1) on the leg to be treated and pumping (compressor) etc.) (3) causes positive pressure to occur in the positive pressure channels (4,6) by operating. it starts. The positive pressure first inflates the base balloon (12). During this inflatable The foot dorsiflexes. To facilitate this movement heel-shaped heel pad (16) is used. After the bottom balloon (12) inflates, the sock (1) inside the body The fluid enters the balloons (8) through the positive pressure relief valve (9).

The pressure created by the fluid is applied to the other balloon nodes (8) inside the body at each The positive pressure on the choke (8) is transferred with the help of the safety valves (9).

In this way, the balloons (8) begin to inflate in order from bottom to top. this from below Inflating in the upward order also provides the patting movement in the leg. A period of time then the vacuum system works. This time can be adjusted on the control panel. Swelling when it is completed, the pump (3) switches to the suction process and the negative pressure channels (5,7) It reduces the pressure in the system. Negative pressure safety of the absorbed fluid It is discharged from the system by passing through the valves (10). pressure of the process When applied, the sequential processes take place in the reverse order when the pressure is reduced.

Balloon in fluid body passing through negative pressure relief valves (10) deflates the knuckles (8) from top to bottom, and finally the bottom balloon (12) deflates and the system takes its initial state. During the treatment process, this cycle is desired. until repeated. The other leg positive channels (6) of the pump (3) and the other leg with negative pressure channels (7) and a second sock (1) on both legs when necessary. can be done at the same time. For one leg or both legs application There is a control panel attachment on the pump (3).

As an alternative to operating the system with fluid, the invention can be placed on the body of the sock (1). straps that will tighten and loosen the torso and make a patting motion on the leg and operation of the system with electric motors that will move these belts. can be provided. From top to bottom and top to bottom of straps attached to the body straight or driven by at least one electric motor that tightens and loosens them all at the same time system operation can be achieved. Each belt is separate and its working intervals and Electric motors whose tightening speed and intensity can be adjusted with a program can be used. In addition, an camshaft suitable for electric motors and this system The massage feature is also added to the system by creating a vibration by adding a piece such as a spindle. can be given.

In the manufacture and application of the invention to the industry, socks (1) antiembolic socks It is made of fabric and the balloon nodes of the relevant fluid inside the body (8) There are channels and safety valves (9, 10) that allow movement between Wrapping balloons (8) socks are produced by sewing methods. Balloon baffles (8) safety valves (9, 10) between the seams are fixed to the channels during this sewing process. Positive and negative pressure channels (4, 5, 6, 7) will be able to flex when necessary, but the pressure It is made of a material that will withstand changes and external factors. base bubble (12), heel insoles (16), foot insoles (14) and foot insoles (15) skin contact made of silicone or similar material that is soft and does not harm the skin. while the disc is manufactured from a durable material such as hard rubber. can be achieved. The sock has a zipper on either side to make it easier to put on. (11), hook and loop, belt and a similar method can also be added. According to the patient's needs According to the invention, the socks can be sized as below the knee and above the knee.
