Description

PATENTE DE INVENCIÓN PATENT OF INVENTION
PANTY FAJA TERAPÉUTICO ANTIDOLORANTI-PAIN THERAPEUTIC PANTY FAJA
OBJETIVO:OBJECTIVE:
El presente invento se refiere a una prenda intima, concretamente un panty faja femenino provisto de un bolsillo interno tipo canguro en donde se coloca un dispositivo almohadilla relleno de un gel que incluye componentes químicos, y en donde dicha almohadilla al ser entibiada al calor produce un efecto reductor del dolor producido en pacientes por efecto de la dismenorrea o dificultad para menstruar.The present invention relates to an intimate garment, specifically a female sash panty provided with a kangaroo-type internal pocket where a padding device filled with a gel that includes chemical components is placed, and where said pad when it is warmed produces a reducing effect of pain produced in patients due to dysmenorrhea or difficulty menstruating.
FUNDAMENTO CLÍNICO:CLINICAL FOUNDATION:
Dismenorrea significa menstruación dificil o dificultad para menstruar. Es un dolor que suele ser referido por la mujer como cólico, sensación de calambre o pesadez en la región púbica, referido a la espalda, muslos o sacro y frecuentemente asociados a nauseas, vómito, dolor de cabeza, diarrea, sudoración y en algunos casos desvanecimiento. El dolor puede ser en ocasiones de tipo incapacitante y afecta negativamente la actividad cotidiana de la mujer tanto en el ámbito social, profesional y personal, siendo en esta instancia el área sexual la más afectada.Dysmenorrhea means difficult menstruation or difficulty menstruating. It is a pain that is usually referred to by the woman as colic, feeling of cramping or heaviness in the pubic region, referred to the back, thighs or sacrum and frequently associated with nausea, vomiting, headache, diarrhea, sweating and in some cases fading. The pain can sometimes be disabling and affects negatively the daily activity of women both in the social, professional and personal, being in this instance the most affected sexual area.
Se han propuesto varias alternativas terapéuticas para el manejo de la dismenorrea. En una de ellas Weingad previo estudio científico publicado en marzo de 2001, asegura que el calor continuo y tópico a nivel de la zona púbica constituye una terapia tan efectiva como la de algunos antiinflamatorios. La dismenorrea puede aparecer uno o dos años después de la primera menstruación. Aunque es un dato que surge de las estadísticas se ha observado que si las madres de las pacientes padecieron de este percance, con bastante probabilidad también las hijas lo sufrirán, lo que lleva a deducir que el medio familiar es muy influyente. La dismenorrea afecta generalmente a mujeres mayores de 25 años e incluso a las menores de 20 años. Es más frecuente en mujeres que no han tenido hijos, y cuando éstas quedan embarazadas los síntomas desaparecen tras el parto, sea este vaginal o por cesárea.Several therapeutic alternatives for the management of dysmenorrhea have been proposed. In one of them, Weingad, after a scientific study published in March 2001, ensures that continuous and topical heat at the pubic area constitutes a therapy as effective as that of some anti-inflammatories. Dysmenorrhea may appear one or two years after the first menstruation. Although it is a fact that arises from the statistics, it has been observed that if the mothers of the patients suffered from this mishap, the daughters will suffer it quite likely, which leads to deduce that the family environment is very influential. Dysmenorrhea usually affects women over 25 and even those under 20. It is more common in women who have not had children, and when they become pregnant the symptoms disappear after childbirth, be it vaginal or by caesarean section.
Consecuente con ello, este invento tiene como objetivo proporcionar una prenda dentro de la cual se ubica un dispositivo sobre la zona púbica ventral, que por el calor adquirido previamente y en forma tópica de aplicación llega a mitigar los dolores de cólicos afines a la disfunción dismenorreica .Consistent with this, this invention aims to provide a garment within which a device is located on the ventral pubic area, which by the heat previously acquired and in a topical form of application mitigates colic pains related to dysmenorrheal dysfunction. .
Otro objetivo es proveer un dispositivo de alivio a manera de una almohadilla ubicable al interior de un panty en un compartimiento tipo canguro sobre el plano ventral, dicha almohadilla colocable y removible del panty o calzón femenino a gusto de la usuaria.Another objective is to provide a relief device in the manner of a pad that can be placed inside a pantyhose in a kangaroo compartment on the ventral plane, said removable and removable pad of the panty or female panties to suit the wearer.
DESCRIPCIÓN:DESCRIPTION:
El invento se ilustra según las siguientes figuras.The invention is illustrated according to the following figures.
La figura 1 presenta un esquema al interior del panty o calzón femenino mostrando la ubicación del bolsillo canguro para la almohadilla de alivio. La figura 2 presenta en forma ilustrativa la colocación y/o extracción de la almohadilla en el bolsillo canguro del panty o prenda interior femenina.Figure 1 shows a diagram inside the panty or female underwear showing the location of the kangaroo pocket for the relief pad. Figure 2 illustrates the placement and / or removal of the pad in the kangaroo pocket of the panty or female underwear.
De acuerdo a lo anterior el invento comprende un panty o calzón femenino 10, cuya pretina delantera en la zona ventral lleva un bolsillo 11 (área de franjas) con una configuración de espacio que le permite recibir a acomodar una almohadilla 12 a manera de bolsa de material plástico en cuyo interior y herméticamente sellado se aoja un material gel 14 a base de vermiculita y hierro (unos 2 gramos) y agua.According to the foregoing, the invention comprises a panty or female underwear 10, whose front waistband in the ventral zone carries a pocket 11 (strip area) with a space configuration that allows it to receive to accommodate a pad 12 as a bag of plastic material in whose interior and tightly sealed a gel material 14 based on vermiculite and iron (about 2 grams) and water.
El invento se utiliza por la usuaria tal como se explica en la figura 2 calentando previamente la almohadilla 12 en un baño de maria o en un horno microonda ,por cerca de 1 minuto. El contenido de la almohadilla en sus ingredientes naturales generadores de calor se calientan por exposición al calor en limites inferiores a los 400C para evitar posibles quemaduras cutáneas en su aplicación. Dicha almohadilla en caliente o entibiada se coloca manualmente en el bolsillo interior 11 del panty a través de una abertura 13 por la zona ventral o púbica acomodando la almohadilla de modo que ocupe plenamente el espacio interior sin plegamientos.The invention is used by the user as explained in Figure 2 by previously heating the pad 12 in a water bath or in a microwave oven, for about 1 minute. The content of the natural ingredients pad heat generators are heated by exposure to heat in lower limits at 40 0 C to prevent possible skin burns in application. Said hot or warm pad is manually placed in the inner pocket 11 of the panty through an opening 13 through the ventral or pubic area by accommodating the pad so that it fully occupies the interior space without folding.
La efectividad del invento con la almohadilla incorporada permitirá a la usuaria o paciente un alivio de por lo menos una hora en su utilización.The effectiveness of the invention with the built-in pad will allow the user or patient a relief of at least one hour in its use.
Sin embargo, la utilización del modelo conlleva algunas precauciones a tener en cuenta, a saber: Enrojecimiento de la piel en la zona púbica por efecto del calor generado por la almohadilla (utilizar la almohadilla por cortos periodos y utilizar igualmente ropa interior ligera y no poner en contacto la almohadilla con la piel) .However, the use of the model entails some precautions to take into account, namely: Redness of the skin in the pubic area due to the heat generated by the pad (use the pad for short periods and also wear light underwear and do not put the pad in contact with the skin).
Piel sensible al calor Molestias de colocación de la almohadilla al acostarse o recostarse sobre la mismaHeat sensitive skin Discomfort of placing the pad at bedtime or lying on it
