Sandbag fixing device

Inguinal hernia is a common disease in general surgery. The main surgical method of inguinal hernia is tension-free patch repair, which has the advantages of short operation time and quick recovery, and can reduce the recurrence of postoperative hernia. However, the incidence of hematoma after operation is high, so it is suggested that patients should press sandbags on the wound after operation.

However, when the patient turns over or lies on his side, the sandbag is easy to slide or deviate from the position, and the effect of compression hemostasis is not very good, so a nurse in general surgery designed a sandbag fixing device. The fixing device is to add a sandbag-sized pocket on the basis of the abdominal belt, put the sandbag in the pocket, seal and fix it with nylon adhesive buttons, and fasten the outer abdominal belt with adhesive buttons, which can fix the sandbag well. Even if the patient turns over or takes a semi-sitting position, the sandbag is still not easy to slide down or deviate from the position.

Catheter fixing device

Indwelling catheter is a common nursing operation, and silica gel balloon catheter fixation has been widely used in clinic for many years, but its complications, such as urinary tract infection, urethral mucosal injury and pain, also plague clinical nurses.

The external fixation device of urinary catheter invented by nurses in our department puts the urinary catheter on the inner thigh, which is not in contact with bed sheets, and is not easy to be polluted by feces, which blocks the way of bacteria retrograde entering the bladder through urethra, reduces the chance of pollution, avoids complications such as pain and ulcer of penis head and external urethral orifice caused by traction, reduces the dropping rate of urinary catheter, and increases the comfort of patients.

Nursing staff identification mark

All the treatment and care of patients in Zhuzhou Central Hospital are completed by exclusive nurses, but during the centralized treatment and care, patients often report that "nurses can't tell who is who after wearing masks". In order to make it easier for patients to identify their responsible nurses, the department has formulated nurse identification signs to facilitate patients and their families to identify their responsible nurses conveniently and quickly.

Disposable sterile goods isolation fence

The use of disposable sterile articles is related to the safety of clinical nursing. Nurses should ensure that disposable sterile articles are within the validity period before using them. However, sometimes the items that are about to expire are mixed with new sterile items, and as a result, some items expire before they are used up, resulting in waste. Therefore, the division designed a partition column within the framework of disposable sterile medical supplies to standardize the use of disposable sterile medical supplies and reduce the waste caused by expiration.
