Intraocular pressure monitor and intraocular pressure monitoring system

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of medical apparatus, and discloses an intraocular pressure monitor; the intraocular pressure monitor is arranged on an anterior chamber irrigating tube, and comprises a monitoring device which is used for monitoring intraocular pressure and a fixing device which connected to the monitoring device and is used for fixedly arranging the monitoring device on the outlet of an anterior chamber irrigating head of the anterior chamber irrigating tube, wherein the monitoring device comprises a sealed cavity filled with gas, a pressure sensing mechanism arranged inside the cavity and a wireless signal transmitting module arranged inside the cavity; an elastic surface which is deformed as intraocular pressure intensity varies is formed in any side of the cavity; the pressure sensing mechanism is connected to the elastic surface, and the pressure sensing mechanism is used for converting the deformation of the elastic surface into an electric signal; the wireless signal transmitting module is connected to the pressure sensing mechanism; and the wireless signal transmitting module is used for transmitting the electric signal to external terminal equipment. The invention provides an intraocular pressure monitor which is adaptive to the anterior chamber irrigating head; and the intraocular pressure monitor can be used for monitoring an IOP (intraocular pressure) value in the process of an intraocular surgery, without the additional increase of a surgical incision.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of medical equipment, in particular to an intraocular pressure monitor and an intraocular pressure monitoring system. Background technique [0002] The incidence of cataract in my country remains high, and cataract belongs to relative blindness. In recent years, cataract phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation are usually used to treat the disease, in which the surgical conditions and the technical level of doctors play an important role in the recovery of postoperative visual acuity. In this type of surgical operation, due to the limitations of microscopic conditions or technical conditions, surgical instruments need to repeatedly enter and exit the anterior chamber of the eyeball, making it impossible to maintain a good and stable anterior chamber depth and real-time monitoring of intraocular pressure (Intraocular Pressure, "IOP" for short), thus causing the anterior chamber to become shallow and disa...

Problems solved by technology

However, most of them are used to measure the real-time IOP value, without the function of real-time monitoring

Therefore, even if ACM is used, the intraoperative IOP value is still estimated by the surgeon based on experience and used to adjust the height of the perfusion bottle. At present, there is no suitable device that can continuously monitor the IOP value during the operation.
