Device for distracting patients during intravenous injections |
摘要 |
A portable medical unit that is used during the medical procedures of extracting blood from and giving needles to children. The unit provides a concealed work area with storage pockets; a vinyl cushion arm rest; and straps to retain the child's arm during the above noted procedures. The unit features distraction elements such as a painted clown's face and an opening through the mouth where the child inserts his/her arm. When not in use, the work area remains concealed with a flap that opens only when the child's arm is inserted into the mouth. Also featured is the clown's hair which is made of synthetic material, is brightly colored, and offers a tactile distraction. The nose of the clown connects to a pumping system which, when the child squeezes inflates a balloon that is connected to the pumping system by a tube. The balloon can be removed and given to the child as a reward for good behavior. When open the two forms are secured in place by locking hinges. When closed the unit is retained shut by clasps and carried by a handle. The unit can be rested on a table in a hospital, a clinic, a child's home, or a doctor's office for easy use.
