Abstract

The invention provides an obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome therapeutic apparatus which comprises a main machine, an output lead wire and an electrode slice. The main machine is composed of four modules, namely a central processing module, a man-machine interaction module, a power supply module and an output module. The central processing module is connected with the man-machine interaction module and the output module respectively, and is connected with the electrode slice through the output lead wire. The central processing module comprises a control Central Processing Unit (CPU). The man-machine interaction module comprises a User Interface CPU (CICPU), a liquid crystal display, a real-time clock, a buzzer and a switch. The obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome therapeutic apparatus has large serviceability and wide availability for patients, and is convenient to operate and simple to use due to the fact that a doctor only needs to patch the electrode slice below the chin of a patient during treatment.

Description

A kind of obstructive sleep apnea low syndrome instrument

technical field:

The present invention relates to a kind of electronic therapeutic instrument, especially a kind of obstructive sleep apnea low syndrome instrument.

background technology:

Obstructive sleep apnea low syndrome (OSAHS) is a kind of sleep-respiratory disease, clinical manifestation have nighttime sleep snoring companion asphyxia and daytime drowsiness.Because asphyxia causes hypoxia at night and the hypercapnia of repeatedly showing effect, can cause hypertension, coronary heart disease, the complication such as diabetes and cerebrovascular disease and vehicle accident, even occur sudden death at night, therefore OSAHS is a kind of sleep-respiratory disease that has potential lethal.

For the treatment of OSAHS, mainly contain clinically following several therapeutic modality:

1. mouthpart treatment

While sleeping with special dilator, put into pharyngeal cavity, pharyngeal cavity is expanded, reduce upper airway resistance.When cause is slept, in mouth, will put dilator, have sense of discomfort, patient is difficult for accepting, and easily causes the oral diseases such as xerostomia halitosis.

2. the radio frequency molten therapy that disappears

Be applicable to light moderate patient, utilize plasma low-temperature to eliminate system, the tissue of pharyngeal hypertrophy is subtracted hold to dwindle, the method is easy, and wound is little, not hemorrhage, generally can be in out-patient treatment, but relapse rate is higher.

3. per nasal positive airway pressure

By air pressurized, patient's air flue is blown open by special respirator, no longer stop up, cure the complication of respiratory tract obstruction anoxia.This method is without wound, but patient need wear nose cup or mask while sleeping, and should, under specialist's guidance, choose and use respirator.Respirator equipment is generally comparatively expensive, wears inconvenience, though because adopting theory of mechanics can significantly improve patient's sleep quality, cannot effect a radical cure symptom.

4. Drug therapy

The medicine of current domestic external enwergy treatment snoring has much, and acetazolamide, thyroxine sheet enhance metabolism, and have certain effect, and period in a medicine can be alleviated, but can not cure, and has side effect.

5. operative treatment

Operative treatment is applicable to unnecessary soft tissue deformity (amygdala hypertrophy, obese patient's soft palate, glossauxeis etc.) and sclerous tissues's deformity (as little micromandibular deformity etc.) and causes the patient that upper respiratory tract is narrow or block.Have wound treatment easily to cause postoperative complication, and Postoperative recurrent rate is higher.

Several therapeutic modalities have drawback and shortcoming separately above.Patient's general adaptedness is not high, even if be decided to be the CPAP respirator of OSAHS treatment goldstandard, and 70% the last abandoning cure of selecting because do not adapt to of patient.

summary of the invention:

In sum, the object of the invention is to drawback in order to overcome existing therapeutic modality and shortcoming and a kind of novel obstructive sleep apnea low syndrome instrument is provided.Temper genioglossus by the electrode slice output electric-impulse stimulation signal stimulus being attached under patient's chin, under chin, skin irritation causes neural excitation and root of the tongue muscle contraction, thereby the plug release symptom of air flue in releasing, long-time use can be repaired the contractility of patient's root of the tongue muscle, the tension force of Airway dilation flesh in raising, reaches and improves even curative effect.

For solving the problems of the technologies described above, the technical solution used in the present invention is:

A kind of obstructive sleep apnea low syndrome instrument, this therapeutic instrument comprises main frame, output lead and electrode slice, the main frame of this therapeutic instrument is made up of four modules, comprises central processing module, human-computer interaction module, supply module and output module.

Central processing module is connected with output module with human-computer interaction module respectively, and by output lead connection electrode sheet; Central processing module comprises controls CPU, and human-computer interaction module comprises UICPU, LCDs, real-time clock, buzzer and switch.

Central processing module can produce multiple stimulus waveform, comprises square wave, sine wave and triangular wave.

The stimulus waveform that central processing module produces carries out amplification by the amplifying circuit in output module, and exports with the form of electric current, and the electrode slice connecting by wire connects human body, and obstructive sleep apnea low syndrome is treated.

Compared with prior art, tool has the following advantages in the present invention: this therapeutic instrument is wider to large, the applicable patient crowd of patient's compliance, when treatment, only electrode slice need be attached under chin, and easy to operate use is simple.

accompanying drawing explanation:

Fig. 1 is structural representation of the present invention;

Fig. 2 is circuit theory diagrams of the present invention;

Fig. 3 is stimulus waveform figure of the present invention;

Fig. 4 is amplifying circuit schematic diagram of the present invention.

the specific embodiment:

Below in conjunction with drawings and embodiments, the present invention is further detailed explanation.

As depicted in figs. 1 and 2, a kind of obstructive sleep apnea low syndrome instrument, this therapeutic instrument comprises main frame 1, output lead 2 and electrode slice 3, the main frame 1 of this therapeutic instrument is made up of four modules, comprise central processing module, human-computer interaction module, supply module and output module.

Central processing module is connected with output module with human-computer interaction module respectively, and by output lead 2 connection electrode sheets 3; Central processing module comprises controls CPU, controls the detection that CPU is used for output, output amplitude, output frequency and the voltage and current of controlling stimulation; Human-computer interaction module comprises UICPU, LCDs (LCD), real-time clock (RTC), buzzer (Buzzer) and switch (Switch).

Take square wave as example, as shown in Figure 3, in whole therapeutic process, first stimulate N pulse under patient's chin below, stop after T second, more then stimulate N pulse, until press stop button or treatment time arrives; Wherein square wave frequency, dutycycle and amplitude are adjustable; N is integer, and N>1; Dwell time T is also integer, and T >=0.The output of square wave is that the DA being carried by control CPU is that digital to analog converter partial simulation is exported, and the frequency of this pulse and dutycycle can be controlled by the intervalometer of controlling in CPU, and amplitude is controlled by the depositor of controlling in CPU.The simulation square wave of controlling CPU output stimulates under patient's chin by conducting wire connection electrode sheet by after amplifying.

As shown in Figure 4, will export square wave amplitude by operational amplifier U1 and amplify, carry out power amplification by Q1 and two audions of Q2, finally the stimulus waveform after amplifying be exported by output module.

What patent of the present invention adopted is the therapeutic modality of square wave, this therapeutic instrument also can other waveform as other waveforms such as sine wave, triangular wave, modulating waves.DA output is wherein the DA part output by central processing module inside, also can pass through DA chip, other waveform generation chip or circuit and substitute.
