Description
- The present invention relates generally to a protective shield for providing the medical personnel with protection against infectious disease, and more particularly to a shield structure which is designed exclusively to prevent a medical personnel from making contact with vomitus of a patient receiving an emergency treatment, or respiratory tubing to avert the condition of oxygen deficiency in the brain of the patient.
- When a medical personnel performs an emergency treatment to a patient in urgency, he or she is exposed to a high-risk situation due to the lack of the detailed physical condition of the patient. For example, the patient might be a potential carrier of a highly-contagious disease, such as tuberculosis of the lungs, AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome), or SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome). The tuberculosis is a highly-contagious bacterial disease, while the AIDS and the SARS are highly-contagious viral diseases. According to the information disclosed by WHO (World Health Organization), a strict quarantine of a person confirmed or suspected of carrying the contagious SARS is the most effective way to root out the SARS epidemic. In another words, the SARS is transmitted by saliva and body fluid of the confirmed SARS patient. As a result, a medical personnel is most vulnerable to contraction of SARS. It is therefore imperative that the medical personnel must take every possible precaution to minimize such an occupational hazard as described above. According to the statistical data made public by CDC (Centers for Disease Control) of the United States, a medical personnel in close contact with a confirmed SARS patient is most susceptible to contraction of the SARS disease.
- This inventor of the present invention is a licensed surgeon having had 15 years of medical experience in emergency clinic, hospital ward, and ICU (Intensive Care Unit). I have been involved from time to time in the medical procedure of respiratory tubing of a critical patient on an emergency basis. When such a risky medical procedure is carried out on an emergency basis, there is often not much time for a surgeon in charge to take adequate precaution. In light of the horrendous threat of the SARS epidemic, I have made an effort to invent a shield structure which is simple in construction and can be easily put to use in a short notice. The shield structure of the present invention is designed to prevent a medical personnel from coming in contact with body fluid and vomitus of a patient who is under care of the medical personnel.
- The primary objective of the present invention is to provide a shield structure for providing a medical personnel with protection against contraction of the contagious diseases. The shield structure is simple in construction and cost-effective. The shield structure is highly effective in minimizing the vulnerability of the medical personnel to contraction of the highly contagious diseases, such as AIDS and SARS.
- The shield structure of the present invention comprises a headrest, a backrest, and a protective plate. The headrest is laid on the surface of a surgical table to accommodate the head of a patient receiving a surgical operation. The backrest is extended from one end of the headrest and is raised to give a support to the back of the patient whose chest is thus raised. The protective plate is uprightly extended from other end of the headrest and is provided with two through holes dimensioned to allow passage of two hands of a medical personnel performing the surgical operation. The protective plate serves to stop dispersion of the vomitus of the patient so as to provide the medical personnel with protection against a contagious disease, such as the SARS disease which is caused by a coronavirus.
- The headrest may be provided with at least one side guard fastened pivotally therewith. The side guard is intended to prevent the vomitus of the patient from speading sideways.
