System and method for controlling a tilt table

Abstract

A system and method for controlling a tilt table employs a physiological sensing module to sense the physiological status of a person lying on the tilt table and to generate at least one physiological signal. Also, the above-mentioned system and method employs a tilt table control module to receive the physiological signal mentioned above and the corresponding changed threshold of the physiological signal to compare the physiological status of the person and to generate an angle adjustment value. Whereby, the tilt table control module can perform an adjustment process to adjust the tilt table to a tilt angle according to the angle adjustment value.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] This invention generally relates to a system and method for controlling a tilt table, and more particularly, to a system and method that employs the feedback physiological signal to control the tilt table. [0003] 2. Description of the Prior Art [0004] Although a well-known tilt table can driver its own bedplate to change the tilt angle through a power-driven device, the well-known tilt table, however, only provides the manual functions of tilt angle adjustment, rising / lowering rate control, and time control. Moreover, the tilt angle of the bedplate of the tilt table is controlled and adjusted in reference to the dizzying feeling told by a tester in a testing process and the experience judgment of an operator. Therefore, when one of the above-mentioned statuses is abnormal or cannot match each other, such as the tester can not explicitly express his dizzying feeling, or the operator adjusts the tilt angle according t...

Problems solved by technology

Although a well-known tilt table can driver its own bedplate to change the tilt angle through a power-driven device, the well-known tilt table, however, only provides the manual functions of tilt angle adjustment, rising / lowering rate control, and time control.

Therefore, when one of the above-mentioned statuses is abnormal or cannot match each other, such as the tester can not explicitly express his dizzying feeling, or the operator adjusts the tilt angle according to his subjective experience, etc., it is easy to make the tester dizzy and bad psychological stress.

Hence, when the tilt angle and the adjustment speed are unsuitable, it is easy to make the tester dizzy or even in a state of shock and make the tester second hurt since the tester could be a rehabilitation patient.

Further, the experience of dizzying and in a state of shock to the tester can make them heavy psychological stress and negative result in his long term treatment.
