A 3D customized helmet or helmet-shaped skull corrector based on temporal artery temperature measurement

Abstract

The present invention relates to a 3D customized helmet or helmet-shaped skull corrector based on temporal artery temperature measurement, which fits the shape of the skull. The infrared temperature sensor is installed in accordance with the head shape and ear position, and the anatomical position of the temporal artery in the head, and is personalized and installed in the left and right ear contours, temporal face and forehead where the temporal artery passes. The non-contact infrared temperature is used to monitor multiple key temporal artery positions of the head in real time. The calculation of the temporal artery temperature at each location is obtained by the correction function of the ambient temperature to the sensed body surface temperature, and finally the peak value of the temperature at each location is calculated as the human temporal artery temperature value. The central control unit is connected to the intelligent terminal via Bluetooth, and the measurement data can be uploaded to the data cloud platform in real time. The present invention obtains accurate human body temperature in real time and non-invasively by accurately measuring the temperature at the temporal artery for 24 hours, and there will be no error caused by the operator not aiming at the temporal artery, so that the temperature measurement is more accurate and convenient, and the patient's head can be protected.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of skull correctors and body temperature measurement, and in particular relates to a 3D customized helmet or a helmet-shaped skull corrector based on temporal artery temperature measurement. Background Art

[0002] In healthcare settings, vital signs are measured to monitor the physiological status and progression of a patient's illness. Temperature is one of the vital signs that is monitored when a person is ill. Abnormal temperatures, such as hypothermia or hyperthermia, may indicate signs of illness and require treatment. The temperature of patients entering a healthcare setting is measured as part of standard routine medical care. Indications for measuring a patient's temperature include establishing core temperature monitoring, close observation to promptly detect hypothermia or hyperthermia, observing and monitoring for fever (a sign of infection), monitoring the effectiveness of antimicrobial therapy and observing for signs of hypothermia, and observing for transfusion reactions.

[0003] Failure of the thermometer to accurately measure body temperature may result in missing abnormal body temperature, which may endanger the safety of the patient if the deterioration of the condition is not detected in time. The normal temperature range is between 36℃ and 37.5℃. Early signs of hyperthermia may be dizziness, confusion, delirium and fatigue, while people with hypothermia may show memory loss, depression, poor judgment, decreased heart rate, respiratory rate and blood pressure. In people with fever (hyperthermia), the rate of chemical reactions controlled by enzymes increases by 10% for every 1℃ increase in temperature. At 43℃ or higher, irreparable cell damage and enzyme denaturation occur, leading to death. Conversely, in the case of hypothermia, as the body temperature drops below 33℃, cellular processes become sluggish, and as the metabolic rate decreases, loss of consciousness may occur and death may occur. Therefore, body temperature should be measured accurately and reliably, as temperature is an important factor affecting diagnosis and the determination of the final treatment plan.

[0004] Core temperature at sites such as the heart and brain is the most accurate "true" representation of body temperature. The temperature of these areas is precisely regulated by the body, so it is the most accurate. However, measuring their temperature is invasive and not easy to measure. Although there are different opinions on which site is the most accurate, to date, the most accurate core temperature can only be obtained through invasive routes, such as through the esophagus and pulmonary artery. Critically ill patients may need this degree of accuracy, and these invasive methods are most feasible in highly acute care areas such as intensive care units or operating rooms. In non-acute care settings, invasive measurement of core temperature is too complicated, poses unnecessary risks to patients, and is simply not feasible. For these reasons, less invasive, simpler and safer methods may be preferred by patients and clinicians. Non-invasive sites that provide the best core temperature estimates include the mouth, axilla, temporal artery, and external auditory canal (tympanum) because they are close to the core area of ​​the body and have large blood vessels. Therefore, temperatures obtained from peripheral or "near-core" sites are more commonly used and more convenient. However, these thermometers have limitations because they are more easily affected by ambient temperature. There is a difference between measuring core temperature and surface temperature, which has prompted the need to invent an accurate thermometer to measure both.

[0005] Comparing the accuracy of temperature measurements at different sites (rectum, pulmonary artery, oral cavity, brain, and bladder) using temporal artery thermometers, infrared ear thermometers, and reference standard thermometers, temporal artery thermometers are the most accurate for noninvasive temperature measurements of the forehead and behind the ear, and are more accurate than ear thermometers. Existing temporal artery temperature measurements are almost all handheld thermometers, which can be inaccurate due to the operator not aligning the measurement site. In one study, the accuracy of temporal artery thermometers was measured relative to handheld temporal artery thermometers, and the study suggested that more research and development is needed to obtain more accurate noninvasive thermometers. Summary of the invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the above problems and provide a 3D customized helmet or helmet-shaped skull corrector based on temporal artery temperature measurement.
