Abstract:
Objective To design an assisted patient conveying and vibration damping system to solve the problems of operator fatigue and patient bump during casualty evacuation.Methods The assisted patient conveying and vibration damping system was composed of several conveying straps and a vibration damping mechanism.The conveying straps were made up of a waist strap,two shoulder straps,a chest strap,adhesive straps and joint components,and the joint components included adjusting buckles,big buckles,small buckles,connecting buckles and hook mechanisms;the vibration damping mechanism adopted the technical form of extension handle combined with vibration absorber,in which the extension handle was made of rigid material and the vibration absorber was equipped with a scissor guiding mechanism.Tests were carried out on the system to record the operating time of the operators and to analyze the system's vibration damping characteristics.Results The system developed extended the operating time of the stretcher conveyers while reduced the vibration during casualty transport,with a maximum vibration reduction of 71.73％.Conclusion The system developed gains advantages in low vibration and low workload,and can be used for casualty conveying in poor road conditions.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(1):15-24]
