Abstract

The invention discloses a smart bracelet capable of relieving gait freezing of a patient suffering from a Parkinson's disease. The smart bracelet comprises a bracelet body and a control system, wherein the control system is placed in the bracelet body and specifically comprises a sensor module, a central processing unit and an outputting module; the sensor module comprises a motion sensor module and a voice sensor module; and the outputting module comprises a vibrating unit, a loudspeaker and a laser line generator. Gait freezing of the patient suffering from the Parkinson's disease is relieved by modes of touch stimulation, hearing stimulation or visual stimulation, and treatment on the disease of the patient suffering from the Parkinson's disease is facilitated. Moreover, the smart bracelet is light in weight and convenient to carry and has a certain decorating effect. The patient wearing the smart bracelet does not resist the smart bracelet, and the living quality of the patient is improved. Moreover, the smart bracelet can be set individually according to demands of different patients, and is high in flexibility and practicality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of auxiliary medical treatment, in particular to an intelligent wristband for alleviating the frozen gait of patients with Parkinson's disease. Background technique [0002] Parkinson's Disease (Parkinson's Disease, PD), also known as Parkinson's Syndrome or Parkinson's Syndrome, is a chronic degenerative disorder of the central nervous system. The disease mostly occurs in the elderly, with an average age of onset of about 60 years old, and the age of onset of the disease has a downward trend in recent years. In my country, according to statistics, the incidence rate of PD in people over 65 years old is 1.7%, and the incidence rate of PD in people over 55 years old is 1%. PD has become the "third killer" of middle-aged and elderly people, seriously threatening human life and health. [0003] Freezing of Gait (FOG) is defined as "short, sudden cessation or significant reduction of steps when attempting to w...
