Problems solved by technology

Due to the serious interference of ECG and other signals when the surface EMG collects the EMG signals of the respiratory muscles, it is difficult to extract pure EMG signals, which limits the application of the surface EMG of the respiratory muscles.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and apparatus for triggering an external diaphragm pacemaker by using a surface electromyogram signal as a synchronization signal. The method comprises the steps of 1) acquiring surface an electromyogram signal of inspiratory muscles; 2) conducting envelope calculation, using a root mean square algorithm for implementation, and using an envelope value greater than a threshold for indicating muscle contraction, the threshold being determined based on a mean value of envelope values in a certain period; and 3) generating a synchronization signal which can be used for triggering the signal output of an external diaphragm pacemaker. The invention improves the control accuracy by the above means, and triggers the external diaphragm pacemaker by using the surface electromyogram signal as the synchronization signal in a more stable way.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to the field of medical technology, in particular to a method for triggering an external diaphragmatic pacemaker using a surface electromyography signal as a synchronous signal and a device using the method. 【Background technique】 [0002] The human body's breathing-related muscles mainly include the diaphragm, external intercostal muscles, pectoralis major, abdominal muscles, sternocleidomastoid, etc., among which the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles are the most important inspiratory muscles. When inhaling, the diaphragm contracts, the dome of the diaphragm moves down, and the chest cavity expands; when exhaling, the diaphragm muscle relaxes, the dome of the diaphragm rises, and the chest cavity shrinks. When inhaling, the external intercostal muscles contract, and the ribs move upward and outward, increasing in size; when exhaling, the external intercostal muscles relax, and the ribs move downward and inward, reduci...
