Definitions

  • a medical apparatus comprising a fluid-tight box-mattress unit, an enclosure which can be fitted around the periphery of said box-mattress unit, a system of leak-tight attachment of said enclosure to the box-mattress unit, means intended to supply said enclosure with liquids and gaseous mixtures, a removable stretcher which is placed on the box-mattress unit inside the enclosure. and lifting mechanisms intended to carry out different manipulations of said stretcher.
  • the present invention is concerned with a medical apparatus which is intended for the transportation, treatment and hospitalization of polytraumatized persons, persons suffering from burns and radiation injuries, patients who have undergone operations and sick persons suffering from serious ailments.
  • This apparatus is designed to support the polytraumatized person from the time of causation of the injury to the time of recovery without any essential need to remove the patient from the enclosure in which he is resting in order to render all the medical assistance which his condition demands.
  • the apparatus forms an orthopedic bed, X-ray table, operating table and hydrotherapy appliance.
  • the present invention provides a solution to these different problems, and is accordingly concerned with a general-purpose apparatus which provides the following main advantages:
  • Patients can be transferred from an accident location to the hospital center or from one hospital to another under the best possible conditions without thereby incurring any risk of modification of temperature and without any interruption of the care and treatment being given at the time of transfer.
  • the present invention is concerned with a medical apparatus which is intended for the transportation,
  • FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of the apparatus according to the invention which is shown without its handling hood;
  • FIG. 2 is a transverse sectional view of the apparatus which is fitted with its handling hood;
  • the bottom of said depression is constituted by a transparent plate 3 formed of Plexiglas, for example, and provided with drainage channels 4; said plate 3 is supported on a bearing member 5 which is provided at the base of the chamfered portion to which it is secured in fluid-tight manner by means of bolts and neoprene seals (not shown).
  • a discharge pipe with strainer 14 is adapted to slide in leaktight manner through the transparent plate 3. In the bottom position (as shown in full lines), said pipe permits the complete emptying of the bath", in the top position (shown in chain-dotted lines), the strainer makes it possible to maintain the liquid at a constant and adjustable level within the enclosure.
  • a perforated horizontal spray-tube 15 can be fitted at the foot end of the table 2; said tube can be fed with either liquid or air in the same manner as the spray-tubes 13.
  • the Plexiglas frame 10 is fitted at the top with a stainless steel band 16 which clamps the frame walls and opens at the top into a channel 17 of cylindrical section which is similar to the channel 7 and in which is held an air-seal 18 of the same type as the seal 8, the valve for the inflation of said seal having been omitted from the figure.
  • the hood or so-called handling hood, is provided (as shown in FIG. 2) with ports 21 fitted with sleeves 22 and gloves 23 and at the top with inspection doors 24.
  • Another glove port 25 is provided at the head end of the hood whilst provision is made at the foot end for an inwardly-opening door 26.
  • said door is designed to permit the connection of a sterilization lock-chamber, not shown in FIG. 2.
  • Handles 27 are provided in order to permit fitting and removal of the hood.
  • Said bed-pan is fitted around its periphery with an annular air-seal 36 which ensures leak-tightness after inflation
  • the same rails 35 also serve for the displacement along the entire length of the plate 3 of a drawer 37 containing sensitized X-ray films.
  • the stretcher 6 is made up of a main frame 41 fitted with detachable cross-bands 42.
  • Said cross-bands each have one rigid extremity in order to slide them beneath a seriously injured patient to be transported without any need to handle the patient.
  • the bosses 50 which are provided at both ends of the dorsal stretcher are centered in recesses 86 (shown in FIG. 5) which are formed in the clamp 71.
  • the same bosses and the same recesses can also be provided on the stretcher 73 and the clamps 72.
  • the member which is shown at 87 in FIG. 4 is centered around the screw 76; said member comprises two retaining heads 88 and 89; the head 88 serves to attach a cable 90 which can be employed, for example, for applying tractive efforts on the patients spine, whereas the head 89 is coupled to the cable 91, from the end of which is suspended a traction device (which is identical in design to that which is shown diagrammatically at 40 in FIG. 1). Elongated slots 92 which are formed at the center ofthe member 87 permit ofsufficient dis placement of said member at the time of application of traction.
  • Said casings which are movable and interchangeable, can be mounted in a fluid-tight manner by means of air-seal systems of the type hereinabove described, either directly on the box-mattress table 2 or on the Plexiglas frame 10.
  • the intended function of said casings is to provide separate chambers in which different forms of local therapy may be applied simultaneously.
  • the patient is then transported into an X-ray room, placed on the X-ray table and transported once again to the operating room in which he undergoes the different treatments which are necessary (dressing of burns, osteosynthesis, etc.) before being finally laid in bed.
  • the handling hood 19 is also locked on said frame.
  • the patient is then immediately placed in an air-conditioned, sterile and superoxygenated atmosphere. From this moment, most forms of medical and surgical treatment which are necessitated by the patients condition can be carried out in any location without entailing any need to open the chamber.
  • the patient can be undressed, douched, bathed and then dried with dry and sterile air. X-ray photographs can be taken and fractures can be immobilized.
  • the combined operations of the jacks 66 and of the mechanism for inclining the box-mattress unit (plungers 96 and universal joint assembly make it possible to hold the patient in any desired positron.
  • the two reversal mechanisms are accordingly placed in position on the plates 63 by means of the nuts 68; the locking-pins 65 are removed and permit the downward motion of the rails 53.
  • the main stretcher is taken at both ends within the clamps 71, the bosses 50 being centered within the recess 86.
  • the ventral stretcher 73 is also secured within the clamps 72.
  • the small locking bolts 82 are thrust within their recesses and the hand-wheel 79 is then operated so as to move the two stretchers towards each other so that the patient is fully supported.
  • An apparatus including a table for said box-mattress unit constituted by a plate of transparent material.
  • An apparatus according to claim 1 wherein said enclosure is constituted by a coverless frame forming a fluid-tight different forms of local therapy may be applied simultaneousl 7.
  • An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said enclosure comprises a coverless frame, a sealed hood which can be fitted on said frame and a system for the fluid-tight attachment of said hood to said frame.
  • the stretcher is constituted by an articulated frame fitted with flexible and detachable cross-bands having at least one rigid extremity so that said cross-bands may be passed along the ground underneath an injured person without handling the patients body.
  • boxmattress unit is coupled to a mechanism for producing the lateral or longitudinal inclination thereof and rigidly fixed to a carrier frame.
