The Utility Model Relates to a Training Platform for Neurosurgery Multi-Purpose Medical Nursing Worker

Abstract

With the development of medical level, specialized, refined and multidisciplinary collaborative therapy is the requirement and main development direction of neurosurgery. With the improvement of people’s medical awareness, people cannot meet the simple surgical treatment, and there is a great demand for nursing treatment. At the same time, the demand for efficiency and convenience of medical nursing practice teaching continues to improve, and the multi-functional medical nursing training innovation platform has been paid more and more attention. The rapid development of material technology as well as digitalization has brought about a huge change, and we have created a multifunctional, spatially efficient and easy-to-transfer information platform for medical care training. A base box, placement drawer, platform board and display are used as the base module and the base module is filled with specific functional components. Lifting and lowering using motors and spiral base, moving using universal wheels. These devices together constitute the training platform. A survey of students and teachers was conducted through a questionnaire, and they all gave very good feedback that the multi-functional platform was very practical and useful. This platform effectively solves the drawbacks of the original training platform which is time-consuming, laborious and inconvenient, and is worthy of further promotion and research.

1. Introduction

1.1. Technical Background

In the existing medical nursing education, practice teaching demonstration and assessment occupy an important position. Over the past few decades, assistive teaching tools have become more widely used in education and training. The reduction in the cost of the necessary hardware makes the widespread and intensive use of engineering in teaching a feasible and appropriate approach. ICT and innovative technologies have gradually become a fundamental part of education and are receiving special attention in the field of health care education. Therefore, it is of great importance to explore related technologies and integrate resources [1] [2] [3] . In fact, the nursing of neurosurgery is more complex and the hospital stay is longer than that of general departments. In order to ensure the timeliness, effectiveness and pertinence of treatment, active and comprehensive nursing intervention is crucial for the prognosis of patients [4] [5] [6] . As a result, health care in neurosurgery requires more skilled practical skills and is tested more frequently than in other departments [7] [8] [9] . In mainland China, the large population inevitably makes large classes more common, and the large number of students places higher demands on teaching and learning, as well as the challenge of caring for each and every student in training. Similarly, in the frequent and highly valued practical examinations, examiners need to pay special attention to observing candidates’ skills and details in order to give fair and reasonable marks. These current conditions and high demands pose a serious test for nursing practitioners and teaching staff, and having a training and assessment platform that is multi-functional, simple in process, and informative is what most people want [10] [11] .

1.2. Problems to Be Solved

With the development of modern technology, the needs of the industry have forced the relevant supporting industries to keep up with the times. A variety of neurosurgical nursing training and teaching platforms have emerged, and great strides have been made in information technology and efficiency improvements, but some key issues remain unaddressed [12] [13] . For example, the platform cannot adjust the height. It is difficult to adapt to different heights of training and examiners; slow progress of information support, video display and explanation function is missing; Internet or LAN connection function is not perfect; it cannot record and real-time live broadcast; parts are too complicated, assembly and maintenance complex, handling difficulties. For most developing countries around the world, the expensive price and post-maintenance costs of most training platforms are very unfriendly, and procurement policy makers are often more concerned with reducing the associated costs. Currently, the price of a new medical care training platform procured from the market ranges from a few hundred to several thousand dollars, a cost that is sufficient to make these governments in developing countries with huge populations relatively cautious [14] [15] .

1.3. Summary of the Invention

In response to the defects and problems existing in the existing platform, our team is committed to creating a low-cost, efficient, multifunctional, foldable, easy to assemble, space saving nursing training platform capable of mission training and evaluation, field recording and medical live broadcast.

1.4. The Purpose of This Paper

Describe the materials and orientation of the assembly, as well as to discuss the results of the participant acceptability survey.
