The cold and heat compression therapy machine is a kind of multifunctional equipment combining cold and heat compress and pressure treatment, which is widely used in sports injury, rehabilitation after surgery, arthritis and chronic pain. It reduces pain, relives swelling, improves blood circulation and speeds recovery by regulating temperature and applying appropriate pressure. Xiamen Weiyou Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. is a factory specializing in the production of hot and cold compression therapy machine. Next, we will introduce how to use the machine for you.
1. Preparation before use
Patient assessment:
Assess the patient's awareness, condition and local skin condition to ensure safe treatment.
Inform the patient of the purpose and method of using the cold and heat compression therapy instrument, and obtain the cooperation of the patient.
Equipment inspection:
Check that all components of the device are complete and that pipes are tightly connected.
Ensure that the power cord and plug are intact to avoid electrical safety hazards.
Filling medium:
If using ice water mixture or ice cubes for cold compress, add enough ice cubes and water to the specified water level and cover with insulated plastic cover.
If it is a hot compress, make sure that the water or medium in the heating module is sufficient for rapid heating.
2. Operation steps
Choose the right cover:
Choose the right cold or hot pack for the treatment site and make sure the pack fits tightly to the skin.
Connect devices:
Connect the cold pack or hot pack to the hot and cold compression device, making sure the connection is tight.
Regulating temperature and pressure:
Temperature and pressure are adjusted through a control panel according to treatment needs. When applying cold compress, the temperature is usually set at about 0℃; When applying hot compress, the temperature should be set within the appropriate range.
According to the treatment site and condition, adjust the pressure to ensure that the treatment effect is achieved without causing discomfort.
Start device:
The ON/OFF switch is turned on and the device starts to provide hot and cold compresses and pressure treatments.
Observation and adjustment:
During treatment, local conditions should be observed every 1-2 hours to prevent frostbite or overheating.
Adjust temperature and pressure as needed to ensure effective treatment.
End of treatment:
After treatment, turn off the device switch and disconnect the power supply.
Pour out the water or media in the cold or hot compress, clean the compress and the surface of the device, wipe with disinfectant, and let dry.
3. Precautions
Time control:
Each treatment time should not be too long, it is recommended to control between 15 and 30 minutes, so as to avoid skin damage caused by long-term exposure to high temperature or low temperature environment.
Skin protection:
If the skin is sensitive or has wounds, it is recommended to place gauze between the jacket and the skin to avoid direct contact.
Equipment maintenance:
The equipment should be cleaned after each use, and the state of the equipment should be checked regularly to ensure that it is in good working condition.
Professional Consultation:
For some complex diseases or special conditions, it is recommended to use under the guidance of professionals to ensure the safety and effectiveness of treatment.
4. Application scenarios
Hot and cold compression therapy instrument is widely used in the following scenarios:
Sports injury: such as sprain, strain, etc., through cold compress to reduce the initial swelling, through hot compress to promote later recovery.
Rehabilitation after surgery: reduce postoperative pain and swelling, promote wound healing, and speed up the rehabilitation process.
Arthritis: Relieves joint pain and stiffness and improves joint motion.
Chronic pain: such as low back pain, neck pain and muscle pain, provides continuous hot and cold and pressure treatment.
With its scientific working principle and humanized design, the cold and heat compression therapy instrument provides an efficient treatment program for patients. The correct use of this device can significantly improve the treatment effect and promote healthy recovery. In the process of use, be sure to follow the instructions of the equipment manual, pay attention to safety, and ensure that each treatment achieves the expected effect.
