Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of rehabilitation assistance systems, and in particular to a cognitive impairment rehabilitation assistance system. Background Art

[0002] Mild cognitive impairment is defined as a case where the degree of cognitive decline far exceeds the age and education level of the stage, usually in the transition period between normal elderly people and dementia. However, unlike dementia, elderly people with mild cognitive impairment are not affected in basic daily activities (BADL), but cognitive impairment affects instrumental activities of daily living (IADL).

[0003] Elderly people with mild cognitive impairment first begin to lose their instrumental daily living functions. Common functional impairments include financial management and telephone use. Instrumental daily living functions require more complex cognitive abilities than basic daily activities. Therefore, when cognitive functions decline rapidly, there is a high risk of developing dementia in the future, such as Alzheimer's disease. In addition, past studies have shown that instrumental daily living functions are highly correlated with cognitive abilities such as memory and handling complex tasks. In other words, elderly people with mild cognitive impairment are prone to cognitive and instrumental daily living function disorders. Therefore, it is extremely important for elderly people with mild cognitive impairment to find an intervention method to maintain the cognitive and instrumental daily living functions of elderly people with mild cognitive impairment. Summary of the invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that as the number of elderly people increases year by year, the population of elderly people with mild cognitive impairment is expected to rise rapidly. Elderly people with mild cognitive impairment begin to lose their instrumental daily living functions first, and it is necessary to find an intervention method to maintain the cognition and instrumental daily living functions of elderly people with mild cognitive impairment.

[0036] Each electrical stimulation medium 63 has a plurality of conductive posts 631 arranged in parallel to output physical stimulation.

[0037] The display and light frequency stimulation unit 7 is disposed on the support unit 2 and can be switched between a display mode and a light frequency stimulation mode. In the display mode, the display and light frequency stimulation unit displays a virtual image (not shown) for the user's eyes to see. In the light frequency stimulation mode, the display and light frequency stimulation unit 7 stimulates the user's eyes with a flashing image. In this embodiment, the display and light frequency stimulation unit 7 is a virtual image operation device, and includes a display module 71 and an operation button 72.

[0038] When the display and light frequency stimulation unit 7 is in the light frequency stimulation mode, the flashing picture displayed by the display and light frequency stimulation unit 7 can flash at a predetermined frequency or stimulate the user's eyes respectively with a light frequency difference. In this embodiment, the predetermined frequency is between 35 and 45 Hz, so that the entire picture flashes at the same frequency, and when the user's eyes are stimulated respectively with the light frequency difference, the user's eyes are stimulated by light of different frequencies respectively.

[0039] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 5, the motion unit 8 is signal-connected to the control unit 9 for the user to operate to perform exercise. The motion unit 8 includes a fitness bike 81, which has a frame 82, a crank 83 rotatably disposed on the frame 82, two pedals 84 disposed on two opposite sides of the crank 83, a handlebar 85 and a seat 86 disposed on the frame 82, and a torque sensor 87 disposed on the crank 83 and signal-connected to the control unit 9 to output a measurement signal corresponding to the torque of the crank 83.

[0040] The control unit 9 is electrically connected to the speaker 31, the acupoint medium 42, the near infrared light set 51, the electrical stimulation medium 63 and the display and light frequency stimulation unit 7, and stores the digital information of the beat frequency music, and can simultaneously control the speakers 31 to broadcast the beat frequency music, the acupoint medium 42 to emit physical stimulation, the near infrared light set 51 to emit near infrared light, the electrical stimulation medium 63 to emit physical stimulation, and the display and light frequency stimulation unit 7 to switch modes according to a preset command. In this embodiment, the control unit 9 is a personal computer.

[0041] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown, the control unit 9 can execute an assessment program, in which the control unit 9 controls the display module 71 to sequentially display a plurality of cognitive self-assessment questions for assessing cognitive impairment, each cognitive self-assessment question has a plurality of self-assessment options, and the selected self-assessment option can be changed by changing the direction of the display module 71, and a cognitive self-assessment score corresponding to the selected self-assessment option is generated and stored after confirmation through the operation button 72, and a cognitive result score is generated and stored after all cognitive self-assessment questions are answered and all cognitive self-assessment scores are added up. In this embodiment, the display module 71 displays a group of cognitive self-assessment questions at a time, and after the corresponding self-assessment options are selected, the next group of cognitive self-assessment questions is displayed, but it is not limited to this. In other implementations, multiple groups of cognitive self-assessment questions can also be displayed at the same time, and the self-assessment questions are derived from the existing assessment table.

[0042] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in FIG. 5 , the control unit 9 can display a prompt message in the virtual image through the display and light frequency stimulation unit 7 after the motion unit 8 operates for a predetermined time. In this embodiment, the virtual image is a VR image, and the digital information and the preset command are downloaded from the cloud network 10 and pre-stored in the control unit 9.

[0043] When in use, the user first wears the cognitive impairment rehabilitation assistance system, and then the control unit 9 controls the speaker 31 to broadcast the beat frequency music, and the acupoint medium 42 to emit physical stimulation to the corresponding acupoints, the near-infrared light group 51 to irradiate, and the electrical stimulation medium 63 to emit physical stimulation to the corresponding brain area. In this way, the user can be stimulated by the beat frequency music, acupoints, low-energy irradiation and brain areas at the same time.

[0044] In addition, the user can execute the assessment program before use to obtain a cognitive result score before operation, and then execute the assessment program again after the entire operation process to obtain a cognitive result score after operation. The two cognitive result scores can be used to show the degree of improvement of cognitive impairment, which can be used as a record and as a motivation for the user to use it further.

[0045] It should be noted that the test results of the effects of the physical stimulation of the corresponding acupoint medium 42, beat frequency music, near infrared light set 51 and electrical stimulation medium 63 on patients with cognitive impairment in this case have been confirmed by the following references, and therefore will not be further explained in this specification.

[0053] In addition to providing the user with the beat frequency music, acupuncture points, low energy irradiation and brain area stimulation, the control unit 9 can also control the display and light frequency stimulation unit 7 to display a designed virtual image in the display mode. The virtual image can provide interactive operations for eight aspects of functional daily living activities (cooking, shopping, going out, housework, laundry, making phone calls, taking medicine, and managing finances), so that the user can train in this regard. It should be noted that since the content presented by the virtual image is not the technology to be protected in this case, it will not be further described in this specification.

[0054] The control unit 9 can also control the display and light-frequency stimulation unit 7 to switch to the light-frequency stimulation mode. In the light-frequency stimulation mode, the user's eyes are stimulated with flashing images, thereby improving cognitive dissonance. It should be noted that according to Iaccarino,H.F.,Singer,A.C.,Martorell,A.J.,Rudenko,A.,Gao,F.,Gillingham,T.Z.,...&Adaikkan,C.(2016).Gamma frequency entrainmentattenuates amyloid load and modifies microglia .Nature, 540(7632), 230-235. and Garza, KM, Zhang, L., Borron, B., Wood, L.B., & Singer, A.C. (2020). GammaVisual Stimulation Induces aNeuroimmune Signaling Profile Distinct from AcuteNeuroinflammation. Journal of Neuroscience, 40 (6) ,1211-1225 . According to a literature study, 40Hz light-flickering paradigm can effectively reduce the concentration of amyloid-β and the deposited plaques in the visual cortex of mice, which can be used as evidence to improve the dysfunction of the neuroimmune system.

[0055] In addition, the user can further ride the fitness bike 81 to exercise, thereby improving cognitive impairment through exercise, according to Tsai, CL, Pai, MC, Ukropec, J., & Ukropcová, B. (2019). Distinctive effects of aerobic and resistance exercise modes on neurocognitive and biochemical changes in individuals with mild cognitive impairment. Current Alzheimer Research, 16 (4), 316-332., Tsai, CL, Sun, H., Kuo, YM, & Pai, MC (2019).

Journal of clinical medicine, 8 (10), 1639. and The Role of Physical Fitness in Cognitive-Related Biomarkers in Persons at Genetic Risk of Familial Alzheimer's Disease. Journal of clinicalmedicine, 8(10), 1639. According to a literature study, regular aerobic exercise can improve the neurocognitive function of elderly people with mild cognitive impairment, and aerobic exercise can significantly improve the concentration of neurotrophic factors and inflammatory markers in the group of people with mild cognitive impairment related to dementia, and promote neurocognitive performance, which can serve as proof that exercise can improve the dysfunction of the neuroimmune system.

[0056] The display and light frequency stimulation unit 7 can display the exercise status according to the feedback of the torque sensor 87, and can know the progress of the exercise by displaying prompt messages and sending prompt sounds through the speaker 31, which can improve the convenience of use for the user.

[0057] In summary, the cognitive impairment rehabilitation auxiliary system of the present invention can enable the user to obtain multiple stimulations simultaneously in a single treatment course through the provided speakers, acupoint media, near-infrared light lamp group, electrical stimulation media, display and light frequency stimulation unit and the motion unit, thereby improving the rehabilitation efficiency of patients with cognitive impairment.

[0058] The above describes the specific embodiments of the invention. It should be understood that the invention is not limited to the above specific embodiments, and the devices and structures not described in detail should be understood to be implemented in a common manner in the art; those skilled in the art can make various modifications or modifications within the scope of the claims, and make some simple deductions, deformations or substitutions, which does not affect the essence of the invention.
