Method and device for generating photoelectric stimulation pulses

Abstract

The invention provides a photoelectric stimulation pulse generation method and device. The basic idea is that, according to the nerve signal near the brain of the damaged nerve, when the nerve signal exceeds a certain amplitude threshold and meets the refractory period condition, a photoelectric stimulation pulse is generated to stimulate the corresponding damaged nerve (target nerve) at the far brain. , so as to induce muscle movement and realize the motor function remodeling of damaged nerves. The present invention uses photoelectric combination stimulation to reduce tissue damage while improving stimulation resolution and realizing precise muscle movement control; at the same time, the frequency of photoelectric stimulation pulses is controlled according to changes in nerve signals, and the intensity of nerve signals is reflected in the stimulation frequency. , by controlling the frequency of photoelectric stimulation pulses, the burst rate of the action potential of the neurons of the target nerve is controlled, thereby controlling the muscles to achieve different degrees of movement.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of nerve signal processing analysis and nerve stimulation, in particular to a method and device for generating photoelectric stimulation pulses. Background technique [0002] Nerve damage will lead to the loss or reduction of the impulse transmitted by the nerve, so that the muscles innervated by the damaged nerve cannot complete their original contraction function, thus losing the ability to move. Stimulating the damaged nerves through some stimulating pulses can cause the muscles to contract to a certain extent, thereby simulating normal voluntary movements to achieve the purpose of increasing limb mobility and restoring the function of the stimulated muscles or muscle groups, making the damaged nerves move Functional remodeling becomes possible. [0003] Early nerve stimulation for motor function remodeling mostly used pre-set pulse sequences in the program. The stimulation mode was single and the stimulation int...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] Early nerve stimulation for motor function remodeling mostly used pre-set pulse sequences in the program. The stimulation mode was single and the stimulation intensity could not be adjusted according to the nerve signal, which made the control precision of the muscles low and the muscles were prone to fatigue.
