Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wearable medical electronic equipment, and in particular to a biofeedback electrical stimulation control device and a control method based on multimodal physiological signal monitoring. Background Art

[0002] In daily life, many patients suffer from pain, motion sickness and other problems that affect their normal lives. Acute pain or motion sickness is particularly significant, as the negative impact of symptoms on physical and mental health is particularly pronounced. In recent years, non-invasive methods for regulating abnormal neurological or physiological states have gained attention in the medical field. Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), as a non-invasive means of regulation, has been shown to have significant therapeutic effects in alleviating abnormal neurological or physiological states. However, traditional TENS devices typically require electrodes to be placed directly on the abnormal area for electrical stimulation. These devices are bulky and difficult to carry, making them inconvenient for patients to wear and adjust independently.

[0003] Although some of the existing electrical stimulation devices on the market have gradually acquired portability and adaptive adjustment functions, they still have limitations in terms of intelligence and personalization. For example, some bracelets or patch-type electrical stimulation devices have a single function, lack real-time monitoring of the patient's physiological state, and only provide electrical stimulation of a fixed frequency or intensity, and cannot be adaptively adjusted according to changes in the patient's symptoms. In addition, although some devices have a physiological signal feedback mechanism, they only adjust the intensity of electrical stimulation based on a single physiological signal (such as skin conductance), and fail to combine multimodal information such as heart rate variability and movement status, thereby reducing the accuracy of the assessment of abnormal neural or physiological states.

[0004] With the development of physiological signal detection technology, more and more studies have shown that physiological signals such as heart rate variability, skin conductance, and blood oxygen concentration have great potential for application in the assessment of abnormal neurological or physiological states. Heart rate variability is a physiological indicator that measures changes in heart rhythm and can reflect pain and anxiety; skin conductance can be used as an effective indicator of sympathetic nerve activity, reflecting the body's physiological response to discomfort such as pain or nausea. However, current physiological signal detection technology still faces problems such as motion artifacts and ambient light interference in practical applications. Especially in patch or wristband devices, the impact of motion on PPG signals is significant, so more complete artifact elimination solutions need to be developed to ensure signal accuracy. In addition, the assessment of abnormal neurological or physiological states is highly subjective, and existing equipment lacks personalized models to address individual differences, resulting in limited feedback and regulation of symptoms.

[0005] Furthermore, existing skin patches often use a single material for their adhesive layer, such as traditional chemical adhesives or conductive hydrogels. While chemical adhesives offer strong adhesion, they suffer from poor breathability and can easily cause skin discomfort and allergic reactions with prolonged use. While conductive hydrogels offer high conductivity, they lack mechanical strength and adhesion, making them prone to falling off during exercise or sweating, limiting their effectiveness and comfort in practical applications.

[0051] The specific algorithm used in the system control method of the biofeedback electrical stimulation control device based on multimodal physiological signal monitoring is as follows:

[0052] (1) Heart rate variability signal processing algorithm and multimodal cross-fusion

[0053] The PPG signal is denoised using a multi-layered signal processing algorithm, including wavelet transform, adaptive filtering, and multimodal cross-fusion, to obtain accurate heart rate variability data in a sports environment.

[0054] (1-1) Wavelet transform noise reduction: The PPG signal is first subjected to multi-scale decomposition through wavelet transform, which decomposes the original signal into sub-signals in multiple frequency bands. By screening out low-frequency components and filtering out high-frequency noise, features related to heart rate variability are extracted. The characteristic parameters of heart rate variability extracted by wavelet transform include SDNN (standard deviation of normal RR intervals, reflecting overall HRV), RMSSD (root mean square of the difference between adjacent RR intervals), pNN50 (the proportion of adjacent RR intervals with a difference of more than 50 milliseconds), and SDANN (standard deviation of the average RR interval every 5 minutes in the full recording). These parameters can comprehensively reflect heart rate variability and provide reliable indicators of abnormal neurological or physiological symptoms.

[0055] (1-2) Adaptive Filtering for Artifact Reduction: To reduce artifacts caused by the wearer's motion, a Normalized Least Mean Square (NLMS) adaptive filter based on the NLMS algorithm is employed. The NLMS adaptive filter uses the motion signal collected by the accelerometer as a reference input and dynamically adjusts the filter tap coefficients to minimize motion artifacts. The NLMS algorithm introduces a normalization factor that effectively controls the step size, ensuring rapid convergence and stable filtering.

[0056] (1-3) Multimodal cross-fusion: Based on the user's current physiological state, a weighted fusion algorithm is used to cross-analyze heart rate variability, skin conductance, and motion data. The device prioritizes heart rate variability when stationary and accelerometers when in motion, achieving efficient signal fusion and dynamic control.

[0057] (2) Motion artifact elimination

[0058] Three motion artifact elimination methods eliminate the effects of wearer movement during use, ensuring accurate physiological signals are acquired regardless of motion. The combined application of these three methods enables the device to maintain accurate physiological signal acquisition under varying motion conditions, providing stable data support for subsequent assessments of neurological or physiological abnormalities.

[0059] (2-1) Accelerometer Artifact Compensation

[0060] An accelerometer is used to collect motion data in real time to compensate for motion artifacts in the PPG signal. The accelerometer output serves as the input to an adaptive filtering algorithm. Combined with the NLMS adaptive filter, the filter parameters can be adjusted in real time, effectively reducing motion interference on the PPG signal.

[0061] (2-2)Optimal structure of optical sensor

[0062] The patch design incorporates a red-light selective, highly reflective film on a dual-wavelength LED light source. Coated on a transparent, flexible substrate, the film utilizes the principle of optical interference to filter out external interference signals and adjusts the optical path structure to isolate motion interference signals. This further eliminates motion artifacts by separating artifact signals from physiological signals.

[0063] (2-3) Advanced signal processing algorithms

[0064] Combined with the Least Mean Square (LMS) signal processing algorithm, the improved LMS algorithm utilizes the quasi-periodic characteristics of the PPG signal to rearrange the pulse wave signal, filter out non-periodic components, and further optimize the signal purity.

[0065] (3) Personalized neurological or physiological state abnormality assessment model

[0066] A personalized neural or physiological abnormality assessment model based on edge computing is used. Using the Support Vector Regression (SVR) algorithm, combined with the multi-dimensional features of the user's heart rate variability, skin conductance, and motion data, a personalized neural or physiological abnormality assessment model is constructed. The system also dynamically adjusts model weights based on real-time contextual data (e.g., motion, resting state), ensuring more accurate and reliable assessment results.

[0067] (3-1) Support Vector Regression (SVR) Algorithm

[0068] The multidimensional features of heart rate variability and skin conductance signals are input into the SVR model. By learning the nonlinear relationship between physiological signals and neurological or physiological abnormality scores, the abnormality scores can be predicted. The scores are based on a subjective scoring system commonly used in hospitals, categorizing neurological or physiological abnormalities into four levels: none, mild, moderate, and severe.

[0069] (3-2) Personalized User Database

[0070] When using the device for the first time, the user enters basic information (such as age, gender, and health status). The system uses this data to initialize the model and set the initial parameters for electrical stimulation. During use, the device continuously updates the user database by collecting real-time heart rate variability data and subjective feedback, adjusting the weighting of various parameters to achieve more accurate and personalized assessments.

[0071] (3-3) Feedback loop mechanism

[0072] When the device detects that the user is in an abnormal neurological or physiological state, the mobile application will prompt the user to score the abnormal state. The subjective scoring data is used to update the SVR model, and the personalized model is optimized in real time through the edge computing module to gradually improve the evaluation accuracy.

[0073] (4) Self-adjustment algorithm for electrical stimulation parameters

[0074] The Deep Q Network (DQN) algorithm is used to achieve adaptive adjustment of electrical stimulation parameters. The reinforcement learning mechanism optimizes the frequency and intensity of electrical stimulation in real time to ensure personalization and scientificity. Through continuous optimization of the DQN algorithm, the electrical stimulation parameters can be adaptively adjusted during use, avoiding the limitations of traditional fixed-parameter electrical stimulation and ensuring the scientificity and effectiveness of the regulation. The self-adjustment process is as follows:

[0075] (4-1) Initialization parameter settings

[0076] When the patch is used for the first time, the system sets the initial electrical stimulation parameters based on the user's age, gender, health status and other information to meet individual differentiated needs.

[0077] (4-2) Real-time feedback regulation and reinforcement learning

[0078] During the stimulation process, the microprocessor dynamically adjusts stimulation parameters using a DQN algorithm, adjusting frequency and intensity in real time based on changes in heart rate variability and skin conductance signals. The DQN model (Deep Q-Network) continuously optimizes the strategy based on feedback from each stimulation cycle to ensure the effectiveness of the stimulation in alleviating symptoms.

[0079] (4-3) Continuous Optimization

[0080] If the user reports that their neurological or physiological abnormalities have eased, the DQN model appropriately reduces stimulation intensity to avoid overstimulation. If symptoms remain severe, the model proceeds to the next stimulation cycle, increasing the stimulation parameters until the optimal control effect is achieved. The feedback data from each stimulation cycle serves as reference input for the next round of stimulation, ensuring optimized and personalized stimulation parameters.

[0081] (5) Intelligent emergency reminder and automatic control mechanism

[0082] A companion mobile app provides visual and user-friendly device operation. The app displays assessment results, electrical stimulation parameters, and other status information. It also provides voice control, allowing users to turn the patch on and off and adjust the electrical stimulation intensity through voice commands, further enhancing the device's usability and user experience. If the system detects heart rate variability and skin conductance exceeding preset safety thresholds, the device sends an alert via the mobile app and, if necessary, initiates emergency electrical stimulation mode for automated control.

[0108] The adhesive layer 103 is embedded with an electrode sheet that can be directly attached to the Neiguan acupoint to ensure accurate conduction of electrical stimulation and facilitate the detection of physiological signals. The adhesive layer is mainly divided into two parts. One is the conductive hydrogel electrode portion: a double-network hydrogel composed of PEDOT:PSS (poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):polystyrene sulfonate = 1:2.5), poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) (NIPAM), and acrylamide (AAm). The PEDOT:PSS is 20 mg / mL, the poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) is 150 mg / mL, and the acrylamide is 12 mg / mL. This ratio can form a double-network hydrogel with excellent electrical conductivity and mechanical properties. A small amount of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) or graphene nanosheets can be added during the polymerization process to further improve the conductivity and stability of the conductive hydrogel. The other is the microgroove array biomimetic adhesion structure: This part uses polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) material and is fabricated using 3D printing technology to create a microgroove array biomimetic adhesion microstructure. The PDMS microgroove structure is produced using 3D printing technology. The microgrooves have a width of 100μm to 200μm, a depth of 50μm to 100μm, and a groove spacing of 200μm to 300μm. The microgrooves are arranged in a serpentine pattern to increase the contact area and adhesion between the patch 1 (i.e., the biofeedback electrical stimulation and control device described in the present invention) and the skin tissue 2. The interface between the conductive hydrogel electrode and the microgroove array biomimetic adhesion structure utilizes a gradual transition design. The conductive hydrogel gradually transitions to the PDMS, forming a smooth interface and avoiding stress concentration and interfacial delamination caused by sudden changes in material properties. The conductive hydrogel precursor is mixed with the PDMS prepolymer and simultaneously polymerized at the interface to form an interpenetrating network.

Each of the sensors is connected to the microprocessor through electronic circuits and communicates with it. Among them, the PPG sensor is connected to the microprocessor through a signal preprocessing circuit via a data acquisition board. The silver metal sheet of the skin conductance sensor is connected to a filter circuit via a signal amplification circuit, and then connected to the microprocessor through a data acquisition board via the filter circuit, and then transmitted to the microprocessor through the data acquisition board. The signal is transmitted to the microprocessor through the data acquisition board.

Each of these circuits is connected to a microcontroller, which controls the electrical stimulation intensity of the bidirectional pulse circuit by regulating the PWM wave. The bidirectional pulse circuit is connected to the electrode sheet in the adhesive layer 103.

[0115] This biofeedback-based electrical stimulation control device, based on multimodal physiological signal monitoring, achieves personalized assessment and real-time control of abnormal neural or physiological states through multimodal physiological signal acquisition, signal processing, intelligent algorithm analysis, and electrical stimulation feedback regulation. While ensuring signal acquisition accuracy, it also offers portability and long battery life, supporting all-day physiological signal monitoring and electrical stimulation feedback. The rational layout of its components results in a highly integrated design, allowing the device to adhere easily to the skin and ensuring excellent biocompatibility and wearer comfort.

[0116] Example 2

[0117] like Figure 5 As shown, the main control process of the biofeedback electrical stimulation control device based on multimodal physiological signal monitoring described in Example 1 mainly includes four key steps: S1 is the signal acquisition stage, S2 is the data processing and symptom evaluation stage, S3 is the electrical stimulation signal output stage, and S4 is the real-time feedback and adjustment stage.

[0118] The specific steps are as follows:

[0119] During the S1 signal acquisition phase, the PPG sensor and skin conductance sensor collect the wearer's heart rate and skin conductance data, respectively. The PPG sensor generates a pulse wave signal using a red and green dual-wavelength LED light source, further extracting relevant data such as heart rate variability (HRV). The skin conductance sensor measures changes in skin conductance, reflecting the degree of sympathetic nerve activation. The accelerometer monitors the wearer's motion status in real time and transmits motion signals to the microprocessor, providing artifact reference for subsequent data processing.

[0120] During the S2 data processing and symptom assessment phase, the microprocessor uses a preset algorithm to analyze and process the collected physiological signals, extracting heart rate variability and skin conductance features. This feature extraction utilizes wavelet transform and adaptive filtering to obtain multiple characteristic parameters, including SDNN (standard deviation of normal RR intervals, reflecting overall HRV), RMSSD (root mean square of differences between adjacent RR intervals), pNN50 (the proportion of adjacent RR intervals with differences exceeding 50 milliseconds), and SDANN (standard deviation of the average RR intervals per 5-minute period during the entire recording), accurately reflecting heart rate variability. Skin conductance data is also used to assess sympathetic nerve activity. Combining heart rate variability and skin conductance signals, a built-in algorithm analyzes the severity of the wearer's neurological or physiological abnormality and categorizes it as mild, moderate, or severe, providing a basis for selecting the intensity of subsequent electrical stimulation.

[0121] During the S3 electrical stimulation signal output phase, the microprocessor automatically adjusts the frequency and intensity of electrical stimulation based on the symptom level assessed in S2. A pulsed current is applied to the wearer's Neiguan acupoint via the electrodes, stimulating the sympathetic nervous system to alleviate neurological or physiological abnormalities. The electrical stimulation module utilizes a symmetrical bidirectional pulse design to avoid skin discomfort associated with monopolar stimulation, ensuring comfort and safety for the wearer during the stimulation process.

[0122] During the S4 real-time feedback and adjustment phase, the system continuously monitors the wearer's physiological parameters, such as changes in heart rate variability and skin conductance, assesses stimulation effectiveness, and adjusts stimulation parameters in real time. If the system detects a reduction in the wearer's neurological or physiological state, the microprocessor reduces the intensity of stimulation. If symptoms remain severe, the microprocessor initiates a new stimulation cycle, adjusting stimulation parameters until symptoms are alleviated. This closed-loop feedback control process enables intelligent symptom monitoring and adaptive regulation, providing users with a personalized control experience.

[0123] The above-mentioned biofeedback electrical stimulation control device based on multimodal physiological signal monitoring adopts the following algorithm:

[0124] 1. PPG signal processing algorithm

[0125] In the S1 signal acquisition step of the patch control process, PPG signal processing uses a multi-level denoising method based on wavelet transform and normalized least mean square (NLMS) algorithm to achieve accurate extraction of heart rate variability signals, such as Figure 6 shown.

[0126] First, the collected PPG signal undergoes multi-scale decomposition using a wavelet transform. This transform decomposes the original signal into components of different frequency bands, filtering out low-frequency components associated with heart rate variability and removing high-frequency noise. Heart rate variability characteristic parameters extracted using wavelet analysis include SDNN, RMSSD, pNN50, and SDANN, which comprehensively reflect the complexity and variability of heart rate.

[0127] Wavelet is a function φ(t) that satisfies certain conditions, and is a family of functions φ generated by scaling and translation. a,b (t)

[0128]

[0129] Where a is the scale factor and b is the translation factor.

[0130] So the wavelet transform of function f(t) with respect to wavelet function φ(t) is:

[0131]

[0132] The signal denoising process is divided into three steps: wavelet decomposition of the signal, threshold quantization of high-frequency coefficients of wavelet decomposition, and wavelet reconstruction.

[0133] Wavelet transform is essentially a similarity operation. When selecting wavelet basis functions, try to choose wavelets that are similar to the pulse wave to achieve the best denoising effect.

[0134] Secondly, to eliminate artifacts caused by the wearer's motion, the NLMS adaptive filtering algorithm is used to further process the signal. The NLMS algorithm uses the motion signal collected by the accelerometer as a reference input and dynamically adjusts the filter's tap coefficients to maximize motion artifact removal. By introducing a normalization factor to optimize the filter step size, the NLMS algorithm achieves rapid convergence while ensuring filter stability.

[0135] The NLMS algorithm is an adaptive filtering algorithm widely used in fields such as noise cancellation, echo cancellation, and system identification. The NLMS algorithm is based on the least mean square error (LMS) algorithm and improves the step size control by introducing a normalization factor, thereby improving the convergence speed and stability of the algorithm. The output signal is expressed as:

[0136]

[0137] Where x(n) is the input signal, that is Figure 4 The preprocessed PPG signal is shown in Figure 1; W(n) is the filter tap coefficient, which is dynamically adjusted according to the input signal and the error signal to minimize the mean square value of the error signal. The coefficient is updated as follows:

[0138]

[0139] The e(n) in the coefficient update formula is the error signal:

[0140] e(n)=d(n)-u(n) (5)

[0141] The d(n) in the error signal calculation formula is the reference signal, that is, Figure 6 The acceleration sensor signal shown in the figure; μ in the coefficient update formula represents the step size factor, and γ is a preset correction value to prevent the denominator from being zero.

[0142] After wavelet denoising and NLMS adaptive filtering processing, the artifact interference of the PPG signal is greatly reduced, and the obtained heart rate variability signal is clearer and more reliable, providing high-quality physiological data support for the assessment of abnormal neurological or physiological status.

[0143] 2. Personalized neurological or physiological state abnormality assessment model

[0144] In the assessment of abnormal neurological or physiological status, a personalized model based on the support vector regression (SVR) algorithm is used, such as Figure 5 As shown in Figure 2, the SVR algorithm can learn the nonlinear relationship between heart rate variability and skin conductance signals in a multidimensional feature space, thereby accurately predicting the wearer's abnormal status score.

[0145] When using the device for the first time, the user is required to enter basic information (such as age, gender, and health status). This information is used to generate an initial model and set the initial electrical stimulation parameters accordingly. During operation, the device automatically collects the user's heart rate variability data and sensory feedback and records the data in a user-specific database. The system uses this data to dynamically adjust the weights of various physiological parameters, enabling the evaluation model to reflect the user's individual characteristics and achieve more accurate and personalized assessment of abnormal neural or physiological states.

[0146] At the same time, when the patch detects that the user has an abnormal neurological or physiological state, the mobile application will prompt the user to subjectively score the abnormality level. This feedback information will be fed back to the SVR model to fine-tune the algorithm parameters and further improve the model's personalized accuracy.

[0147] Through the above mechanism, the present invention can optimize the neural or physiological state abnormality assessment model in real time according to individual differences, making the state abnormality detection more accurate and providing a scientific basis for electrical stimulation regulation.

[0148] 3. Electrical stimulation parameter self-adjustment algorithm

[0149] like Figure 7 As shown, the present invention adopts a deep Q network (DQN) algorithm in adjusting electrical stimulation parameters.

[0150] Data collection and feature extraction: feedback signals and wearer response data are collected during each electrical stimulation cycle. These data can be used as part of the state (s). In terms of action selection, based on the current state, the DQN algorithm selects an action (a), namely the frequency and intensity of the electrical stimulation.

[0151] To update the Q-value function, the DQN algorithm uses a neural network to approximate the Q-value function. The Q-value update formula is as follows:

[0152] Q(s,a)←Q(s,a)+α[r+γQ(s′,a′)-Q(s,α)] (6)

[0153] Where α is the learning rate, r is the reward (i.e., the positive feedback from the wearer’s response), and γ is the discount factor that measures the current value of future rewards. is the maximum Q-value of all possible actions in the next state.

[0154] Experience replay stores the state, action, reward, and next state in each electrical stimulation cycle in the experience replay buffer, and then randomly samples a batch of data for training to reduce the correlation between samples.

[0155] Target network, in order to stabilize the training process, the DQN algorithm uses two networks: the main network and the target network. The parameters of the target network are a copy of the parameters of the main network, but the update frequency is lower. The target network is used to calculate the TD target:

[0156]

[0157] Where λ is the interpolation factor, is the Q value of the target network.

[0158] Loss function and optimization, use the mean square error loss function to calculate the difference between the predicted Q value and the target Q value, and perform gradient descent optimization:

[0159]

[0160] Here, θ is the network parameter and N is the batch size.

[0161] The DQN algorithm uses reinforcement learning strategies to optimize the frequency and intensity of electrical stimulation in real time, ensuring personalized and scientific regulation. Before stimulation begins, the system sets the initial stimulation intensity based on the user's gender, age, and other information. Using the DQN model, the microprocessor continuously adjusts the stimulation parameters to suit the wearer's specific needs. The DQN algorithm updates the model's policy weights based on feedback signals and the wearer's response during each stimulation cycle, gradually finding the optimal stimulation frequency and intensity for that individual.

[0162] During each electrical stimulation session, a microprocessor records the wearer's heart rate variability and skin conductance data and calculates the degree of symptom relief. If the wearer reports that their neurological or physiological abnormalities have eased, the DQN model reduces the intensity of electrical stimulation to avoid overstimulation. If there is no significant improvement in symptoms, the DQN model automatically enters a new electrical stimulation cycle, increasing the intensity until the optimal parameters are found.

[0163] This adaptive algorithm achieves continuous optimization of electrical stimulation parameters through reinforcement learning, ensuring the scientificity and effectiveness of each electrical stimulation regulation, and avoiding the limitations of traditional fixed-parameter electrical stimulation.

[0164] In summary, the biofeedback electrical stimulation control device based on multimodal physiological signal monitoring described in the present invention realizes real-time symptom monitoring and control through high-precision hardware design, multi-level signal processing algorithm, edge computing personalized neural or physiological state abnormality assessment model and electrical stimulation adaptive adjustment algorithm. In terms of monitoring and control of neural or physiological state abnormalities, a highly integrated design of multimodal signal acquisition, personalized assessment and dynamic feedback regulation is realized, integrating functions such as multimodal physiological signal acquisition, intelligent cross-fusion analysis, and dynamic electrical stimulation regulation. It can accurately assess and control neural or physiological state abnormalities, has the advantages of being intelligent, non-invasive and convenient, and provides users with a safer and more effective means of health management.

[0165] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
