Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of medical devices and physiological signal detection, and in particular to a wristwatch device for blood pressure waveform monitoring and a blood pressure waveform monitoring method. BACKGROUND
[0002] Cardiovascular disease, together with cancer, respiratory disease and diabetes, is one of the four major diseases that seriously endanger people's health. Arterial blood pressure is a key physiological parameter for evaluating the cardiovascular system. The arterial blood pressure waveform contains rich information about the dynamic cardiovascular state and can be used to diagnose or predict cardiovascular disease. Each protruding peak and concave trough in the arterial blood pressure waveform represents a specific heart activity. Continuous monitoring of these subtle waveform changes can provide a reliable basis for the diagnosis and prevention of cardiovascular disease.
[0003] Currently commonly used blood pressure measurement devices such as Korotkoff and oscillometric sphygmomanometers can only provide systolic and diastolic pressures intermittently and cannot achieve real-time measurement and blood pressure waveform measurement. The method based on pulse transit time (or speed) and pulse wave analysis is simple in principle, can provide systolic and diastolic pressures beat by beat, and is easy to combine with wearable devices, but the transfer function parameters need to be calibrated frequently during use, and the measurement accuracy is poor, which cannot meet the blood pressure monitoring requirements. Among the devices that can be used for non-invasive blood pressure waveform monitoring, the arterial tonometry method and the constant volume method have limitations in device volume, ease of use and comfort, and cannot be organically combined with wearable devices to achieve daily monitoring of blood pressure waveform.
[0004] Wristwatch is the most frequently used wearable health monitoring device carrier for people. With the development of technology, technologies and products have emerged that combine oscillometric sphygmomanometers with wristwatches, such as integrating airbags into watchbands to achieve blood pressure measurement of the radial artery at the wrist by wristwatch devices. However, in the current scheme, blood pressure measurement is intermittent, and only systolic and diastolic pressures can be provided, and real-time blood pressure waveform cannot be provided.
[0005] In recent years, with the development of technology, the application potential of ultrasound in blood pressure measurement has gradually attracted people's attention. The basic principle of measurement is to measure the arterial diameter waveform in real time by time-of-flight method, and then convert it to blood pressure waveform. However, in the current scheme, the ultrasonic probe and its transceiver system are mostly large in size and difficult to combine with wearable devices. Moreover, due to the different correspondence between blood pressure and arterial diameter for different people and different measurement locations, standard blood pressure equipment needs to be used for calibration when measuring each subject.

[0033] Figure 1 The structure schematic diagram of the wristwatch device for blood pressure waveform monitoring according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown. Figure 2 The expanded structure schematic diagram of the wristwatch device for blood pressure waveform monitoring according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.
[0034] As Figure 1 The wristwatch device 100 for blood pressure waveform monitoring, as shown in the figure, comprises a watch dial 10, an air bag 20, a flexible ultrasonic array 30 and a watchband 40.
[0035] Wherein, as Figure 3As shown, the watch face 10 comprises a watch face body 101, a pump-valve integrated module 102 and a pressure sensor (not shown in the figure). The pump-valve integrated module 102 and the pressure sensor are arranged in the watch face body 101.
[0036] An air bag 20 is arranged on the watch face 10, and the connection part of the watch face 10 is connected to the pump-valve integrated module 102 and the pressure sensor through a conduit 50, for measuring the blood pressure of the user in real time.

[0037] A flexible ultrasonic array 30 is arranged on the air bag 20 and connected to a system circuit board 103 inside the watch face 101 through a flexible flat cable 60. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the flexible ultrasonic array 30 corresponds to the radial artery 70 of the user when the wristwatch device is worn, for measuring the arterial diameter waveform of the user in real time, as shown in Figure 4

Among them, the plurality of ultrasonic elements 301 are arranged with a spacing between adjacent two ultrasonic elements.
[0039] Specifically, for the monitoring of the blood pressure waveform, only a single ultrasonic transducer is needed to measure the real-time arterial diameter waveform, so only one ultrasonic element 301 needs to be activated when the wristwatch device 100 is working. However, when the conventional wristwatch device is worn, the transducer cannot be adjusted to be aligned with the position of the radial artery 70, based on which, as shown in Figure 5 As shown in the structural schematic diagram of the flexible ultrasonic array 30 used in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the flexible ultrasonic array 30 comprises a plurality of ultrasonic elements 301, and the size of each ultrasonic element 301 and the distance between adjacent ultrasonic elements 301 are as small as possible. Preferably, the ultrasonic element 301 is in a geometric shape such as square, rectangle, circle, ellipse, etc., and the size thereof ranges from 0.5 to 2 mm, and the distance between adjacent ultrasonic elements 301 ranges from 0.1 to 1.0 mm, so as to arrange as many ultrasonic elements 301 as possible in a limited use range, thereby realizing the coverage of the sound field to the radial artery 70 and ensuring that the ultrasonic element 301 whose sound field is directly opposite to the radial artery 70 can always be found when the wristwatch device 100 is worn, so as to realize the accurate measurement of the arterial diameter waveform of the user.
[0040] It should be noted that the flexible ultrasonic array 30 includes at least two rows of ultrasonic elements, and each row of ultrasonic elements includes at least five ultrasonic elements 301, so that when different users use the wristwatch device 100, there is always one ultrasonic element 301 that can correspond to the radial artery 70 of the user, thereby accurately measuring the arterial diameter waveform of the user.
[0041] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, each ultrasonic element 301 is composed of piezoelectric material, and each ultrasonic element 301 is interconnected together through a common serpentine ground electrode trace, as shown in FIG. 2.

Specifically, each ultrasonic element 301 corresponds to an upper electrode for addressing to determine the target ultrasonic element 301 used, and the addressing electrodes of each ultrasonic element 301 are separately connected to the driving circuit through a serpentine trace, as shown in FIG. 3. Figure 6
[0042] According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, the watch dial 10 further includes a screen 105, a battery 104, and a system circuit board 103. The screen 105 is used to display time and blood pressure waveform monitoring data. The battery 104 provides power for the wristwatch device 100.

[0044] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, by integrating the Bluetooth and WIFI modules in the wristwatch device 100, the wristwatch device 100 can be connected to an external device through the Bluetooth and WIFI modules, so as to realize the interaction between the wristwatch device 100 and the external device, and facilitate the user to check the detected blood pressure waveform data through the external device. In addition, the user can also realize the electrical control of the wristwatch device 10 through the key module, so as to realize the real-time operation of the wristwatch device 10.
[0045] It should be noted that the external device can be a terminal device such as a mobile phone or a computer with communication function, and the present separate embodiments do not limit this.

[0050] S102, traverse the flexible ultrasonic array to determine a target ultrasonic element, and make the target ultrasonic element emit an ultrasonic pulse.
