An anti-fall device for patients with muscle rigidity and muscle spasm

Abstract

The invention discloses an anti-tumble device for myotonia and myospasm patients. The device is characterized in that the device comprises a wrist blood pressure monitor and a treatment band, the treatment band is divided into a main treatment band and a subsidiary treatment band, and the main treatment band further comprises a second Bluetooth module, a main controller, a rechargeable battery and an electrical impulse circuit which are arranged in the main treatment band; the wrist blood pressure monitor is provided with a first Bluetooth module, and the first Bluetooth module is compatible with the second Bluetooth module, can transmit data detected by the wrist blood pressure monitor to the main controller in real time, and can also transmit signals of the main controller to the wrist blood pressure monitor; the main controller can conduct calculation on the maximum value of blood pressure changes within set time, and can control the electrical impulse circuit to work when the maximum value exceeds a set blood pressure value, electrical stimulation therapy is conducted to a user, a symptom of myospasm or myotonia is relieved, and the situation that the user tumbles in a straight mode and major damage is caused is avoided.

Description

【Technical Field】 [0001] The invention relates to a medical device, in particular to an anti-fall device for patients with muscle rigidity and muscle spasm. 【Background technique】 [0002] At present, the treatment methods for spasticity mainly include physical therapy, drug therapy, and surgery. These methods, from the point of view of the role, mostly start with the spastic muscles, and play the purpose of directly alleviating the spasm. In recent years, some domestic scholars have advocated starting from the patient's antagonist muscles to improve the excitability of the antagonist muscles of the spastic muscles and relieve muscle tension as a means, and good rehabilitation results have been achieved. The main theoretical basis is the principle of reciprocal inhibition: if a certain muscle is caused to stretch (extensor excitement), the antagonistic muscle (flexor) relaxes. The reason is that the afferent impulse of type Ia afferent fibers can also connect to interneurons th...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, for patients with hereditary myotonia, when they are stimulated by fright, fear, etc., the coeruleus-sympathetic-adrenal medullary system is excited, and catecholamines are secreted in large quantities, resulting in increased blood pressure and subconsciously fighting and evading actions. Falls occur due to muscle spasms. In severe cases, they cannot be supported by their hands when they fall, and they fall like a door panel. The injuries caused by this fall are particularly serious

Traditionally, after the spasm occurs and causes a fall, the spasm is relieved by interactive electrical stimulation of the spasmodic muscle and the antagonistic muscle, which often leads to injury and cannot meet the needs of patients with hereditary myotonia
