Wearable vasovagal syncope prevention device

Abstract

The invention relates to a wearable vasovagal syncope prevention and curing instrument comprising two bearing and connecting belts. The upper ends of the two bearing and connecting belts are connected with a waist fixing belt and the lower ends of the two bearing and connecting belts are provided with bottom fixing belts; each bearing and connecting belt is provided with a plurality of air cavity belt; one end of each air cavity belt is connected with a device used for controlling the contraction thereof; the devices used for controlling the contraction of the air cavity belts are fixed to the bearing and connecting belts; the other end of each air cavity belt is provided with a connecting device so that each air cavity belt is arranged around one leg; each air cavity belt is provided with an enclosed air cavity used for applying air pressure to the legs of a human body and the enclosed air cavity is provided with a pressure sensor inside; the pressure sensors transmit detected air pressure signals to a controller; the controller is used for receiving the air pressure signals and instruction input signals, and outputting control signals to control the working state of the devices for controlling the contraction of the air cavity belts to control the air cavity belts to contract or relax. The instrument is small in size, low in weight, and convenient and rapid to wear.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of prevention and treatment of vasovagal syncope, in particular to a wearable vasovagal syncope prevention and treatment instrument. Background technique [0002] Syncope can be caused by cardiovascular diseases, neurological diseases, and metabolic diseases. Vasovagalsyncope (VVS) is the most common cause. According to statistics, it accounts for 41% to 66% of emergency syncope patients, and it accounts for unknown children. The cause of syncope is 80%. 20% to 40% of the population have had VVS in their lifetime. Vasovagal syncope belongs to neuroreflex syncope and is the most common type of syncope. VVS has the characteristics of recurring and unpredictable attacks. VVS patients with serious illnesses often have the risk and experience of falls. In some places, it can cause fractures, traumatic brain injury, and even death. It is very important for driving and working at heights. Workers in other industries are more h...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] The traditional VVS prevention and treatment equipment uses multiple trouser-leg inflatable airbags to apply pressure to each part of the leg, and the inflatable airbag worn on the leg is inflated and deflated by an external air pump to achieve the purpose of generating therapeutic pressure. When the air pump of this preventive instrument inflates the inflatable airbag, because one side is blocked by the legs, the expansion of the airbag will mainly expand outwards, and the pressure on the legs is not easy to control, thus causing the airbag to exert pressure on the legs. The pressure is insufficient, the treatment effect is poor, and the peripheral air pumps, instrument cabinets, etc. are bulky and heavy, and are not easy to carry

Moreover, because the inflatable airbag needs to be connected to the air pump through a high-pressure air pipe, the patient cannot move at will and can only receive treatment while lying on the treatment bed.
