"It's much easier to train with an umbrella and a fork. A few days ago, Mr. Zhang, a patient with rotator cuff injury, successfully carried out rehabilitation with the assistance of a special cane for shoulder rehabilitation developed by the team of the Sports Medicine Department of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University. Professor Yang Rui, director of the Department of Sports Medicine at Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, introduced that patients after shoulder surgery lack rehabilitation equipment and slow recovery of shoulder joint function.
Aiming at the "pain and difficulty" of patients, we innovate shoulder joint rehabilitation equipment
Mr. Zhang, who lives in Guangzhou, is an old patient after rotator cuff injury and undergoes shoulder range of motion training at home after surgery. In the past, Mr. Zhang could only "use local materials" and use umbrellas, clothes forks, wooden sticks and other auxiliary training, but these things often had problems such as inappropriate length, slippery holding, and poor strength, which affected the progress of recovery.
In fact, rehabilitation training plagues many shoulder rehabilitation patients, and after the team of Professor Yang Rui found this pain point in clinical work, the team organized the team to design and develop new joint rehabilitation appliances. Through continuous improvement, recently, the special cane for shoulder joint rehabilitation - "Shoulder Cane" was launched, and successfully applied for an invention patent and realized patent transformation a few days ago.
Professor Yang Rui introduced that when using the "Shoulder Cane", patients can grasp the handles at both ends, and at the same time put the wrist straps at both ends on the wrist to train the range of motion of the shoulder joint in all directions of forward flexion, abduction, internal rotation, external rotation, abduction and extension. By combining professional rehabilitation training movements, the shoulder cane can help every patient with shoulder joint surgery and frozen shoulder to achieve better and faster rehabilitation results.
Promote the integration of medicine and engineering to solve clinical problems
Recently, the release ceremony of "Shoulder Cane" was held at the annual meeting of the Sports Medicine Physician Branch of Guangdong Medical Doctor Association. Huang Hanlin, executive vice president of Guangdong Medical Doctor Association, pointed out that this is not only a demonstration of the improvement of medical technology and the integration of medicine and engineering, but also a powerful measure to promote the development of new quality productivity in the medical industry, and effectively promote the development of emerging disciplines such as sports medicine.
