[0002] In the field of elderly care, 67.4% of the elderly have cognitive impairment, 62% of the elderly report pain, but only 37% have pain records, and only 1 / 4 of the pain patients receive analgesia. A survey pointed out that 14% to 18% of elderly patients suffering from acute illness have mental confusion, 50% of the elderly over 85 years old have dementia, and patients with cognitive impairment have more obstacles in reporting pain than cognitively sound elderly people.
[0003] Behavioral observation of elderly people with cognitive impairment is an important method to assess whether they feel pain. Discomfort or pain in elderly people with moderate to severe cognitive impairment is usually expressed through non-verbal behavior. The American Geriatrics Society proposed 6 behaviors related to pain in the elderly, namely: facial expressions, including frowning, sad expression, frightened expression, grimace, forehead wrinkles, closed eyes, and rapid blinking; language and pronunciation, including sighing, groaning, humming, shouting, and heavy breathing; body movements, including body stiffness, tense posture, panic, limited activity, gait or activity changes; changes in interpersonal communication, including aggression, resistance to care, reduced social interaction, social maladjustment, and loneliness; changes in activity patterns and daily behaviors, including refusal to eat, changes in appetite, increased rest time, changes in rest patterns, and sudden cessation of daily life; changes in mental state, including crying, tears, irritability, and depression.

The sensors in each group are numbered 1 to 20. After being processed by the CPU module, the pressure value matrix is obtained as follows: , The unit is N, i is the pressure value group number, i=(1, 8), j is the sensor number, j=(1, 20);
[0031] Step 4: Collect sound information:

[0055] Step 5.3.2, compare and score the sound information:
[0056] The sound signal collected in step 4 is framed by the framing unit, and the multi-dimensional vector of the framed input signal is generated by the feature extraction unit using the Mel Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC), and compared with the evaluation standard acoustic model library in step 5.3.1 to find the closest acoustic model;
[0057] When the acoustic model that is closest to the evaluation standard is the mild pain state group, the sound information score is 1;
[0058] When the closest evaluation standard acoustic model was the moderate pain state group, the sound information score was rated as 2;
[0059] When the closest evaluation standard acoustic model was the severe pain state group, the sound information score was 3;

[0061] Step 5.4, Determination of pain status of elderly people with cognitive impairment:
[0062] The vital signs scores, limb compulsion scores, and sound information scores evaluated in steps 5.1 to 5.3 are added together to obtain a pain status score of 0 to 7;
[0063] When the pain status score was 0, it was judged that no pain occurred;
[0064] When the pain status score is 1 to 3, it is judged as mild pain;
[0065] When the pain status score is 4 to 5, it is judged as moderate pain;
[0066] When the pain status score is 6 to 7, it is judged as severe pain;
[0067] Furthermore, in step 5.3.1, the specific steps of establishing the evaluation standard acoustic model are: collecting the groaning sounds of the elderly in mild pain state, moderate pain state, and severe pain state respectively, and establishing three groups of information, each with 50 to 100 pieces, respectively, and intercepting the input signal with frame units with a predetermined time length through the framing unit to generate a framed input signal; using Mel cepstral coefficients (MFCC) to generate a multidimensional vector of the framed input signal and store it as the evaluation standard acoustic model.
[0068] Furthermore, in step 5.2 (3), the position of the pressure sensor corresponding to the maximum external force compression influence value G is determined to be the pain occurrence position.
