[0028] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram showing an application of the batch implant device 2 of the implant unit 1 involved in the example of the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, the batch implant device 2 can be simply referred to as the implant device 2.
[0029] In the implant device 2 of the implant unit 1 involved in the present embodiment, the implant unit 1 can be implanted into the examinee 3 by the implant device 2 and can be used to acquire a physiological parameter of the examinee 3. When the examinee 3 receives implantation of the implant unit 1, the examinee 3 can approach the implant device 2, the implant unit 1 can be accommodated in the implant device 2, and the implant device 2 can implant the implant unit 1 into a defined region 31 of the examinee 3. According to the implant device 2 involved in the present embodiment, by using the implant device 2 to automatically implant the implant unit 1 into the examinee 3, the amount of medical staff required for the implantation process can be reduced, and thus the implant efficiency of the implant unit 1 can be improved.
[0030] Figure 2 is a schematic diagram showing the structure of the implant unit 1 involved in the example of the present embodiment.
[0031] In some examples, the implant unit 1 can have a physiological parameter monitor 11 for acquiring a physiological parameter of the examinee 3 and a housing 12 for accommodating the physiological parameter monitor 11 (see Figure 2 ).
[0032] In some examples, the physiological parameter monitor 11 can have an extracorporeal portion 111 and an intracorporeal portion 112. In which, the extracorporeal portion 111 can be attached to the skin surface of the subject 3, and the intracorporeal portion 112 can be implanted into the subcutaneous tissue of the subject 3.
[0033] In some examples, the surface of the extracorporeal portion 111 that contacts the skin surface can have an adhesive. In this way, the extracorporeal portion 111 can be attached to the skin surface by means of adhesion. In some examples, the surface of the extracorporeal portion 111 that contacts the skin surface can be formed as a curved surface. In this way, the extracorporeal portion 111 can be easily attached to the skin surface of the arm of the subject 3. In some examples, the extracorporeal portion 111 can be made of a flexible material. In this way, the extracorporeal portion 111 can be better attached to the skin surface.
[0034] In some examples, the intracorporeal portion 112 can be implanted into the defined region 31 of the subject 3 by means of a needle-like injection.
[0035] In some examples, the physiological parameter monitor 11 can be a glucose monitor. In this case, the intracorporeal portion 112 can have a glucose sensor (not shown) for obtaining blood glucose information of the subject 3, and the extracorporeal portion 111 can have a processing module (not shown) connected to the glucose sensor and obtaining the blood glucose information of the glucose sensor. In some examples, the extracorporeal portion 111 can have a transmission module (not shown). In some examples, the extracorporeal portion 111 can be connected to an external device (not shown) such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, etc. by means of the transmission module, and can transmit the blood glucose information obtained by the intracorporeal portion 112 to the external device.
[0036] In some examples, the implantation unit 1 can have a housing 12, and the physiological parameter monitor 11 can be accommodated in the housing 12.
[0037] In some examples, the physiological parameter monitor 11 can be detachably connected to the housing 12. In some examples, the physiological parameter monitor 11 can be connected to the housing 12 by means of a snap.
[0038] In some examples, the housing 12 can have an accommodation (not shown) for accommodating the physiological parameter monitor 11. In some examples, the accommodation cavity of the housing 12 can have a closed end and an open end. In some examples, the physiological parameter monitor 11 can be accommodated in the accommodation cavity of the housing 12 in such a way that the extracorporeal portion 111 is close to the closed end and the intracorporeal portion 112 is close to the open end. In this case, by arranging the intracorporeal portion 112 close to the open end, the housing 12 can be easily held to implant the intracorporeal portion 112 into the defined region 31 of the subject 3. In some examples, the housing 12 can be formed as a semispherical shape.
[0039] Figure 3 is a schematic diagram showing the structure of the implantation device 2 involved in the examples of the present embodiment.
[0040] In some examples, the implantation device 2 can include a support 21, a containing mechanism 22 disposed on the support 21, and a mechanical arm 23. The containing mechanism 22 can contain a plurality of implant units 1, and the subject 3 can approach the support 21 to receive implantation of the implant units 1. The mechanical arm 23 can pick up the implant units 1 from the containing mechanism 22 and implant the implant units 1 into the defined area 31 of the subject 3, so that the extracorporeal part 111 of the physiological parameter monitor 11 adheres to the skin surface of the subject 3 and the intracorporeal part 112 of the physiological parameter monitor 11 enters the subcutaneous tissue of the subject 3.
[0041] In some examples, the support 21 can have a base 211 close to the ground, an end base 212 away from the ground, and a connecting column 213 connecting the base 211 and the end base 212.
[0042] In some examples, the support 21 can be fixed to the ground. In some examples, the base 211 can have a fixing device (not shown) such as a screw buckle, a buckle, etc. Thus, the support 21 can be conveniently fixed to the ground.
[0043] In some examples, the support 21 can be placed close to the ground. In some examples, the base 211 can have a counterweight (not shown). Thus, the center of gravity of the support 21 can be lowered, so that the support 21 can be more stably placed on the ground.
[0044] In some examples, the base 211 can be provided with a rolling wheel (not shown). Thus, the support 21 can be conveniently moved. In some examples, the base 211 can have a lifting device (not shown) matched with the rolling wheel. The lifting device can be configured such that when the lifting device is in a raised position, the rolling wheel can protrude outwardly from the base 211 and contact the ground, thereby facilitating movement of the support 21, and when the lifting device is in a lowered position, the rolling wheel can be recessed inwardly in the base 211, so that the entire base 211 contacts the ground, thereby being more stably placed on the ground.
[0045] In some examples, the end base 212 can be connected with the containing mechanism 22.
[0046] In some examples, the connecting column 213 can be prismatic. In other examples, the connecting column 213 can be cylindrical.
[0047] In some examples, the support 21 can also have a bearing plate 214 corresponding to the movement range of the mechanical arm 23, and the subject 3 can stand on the bearing plate 214 to receive implantation of the implant units 1.
[0048] In some examples, the bearing plate 214 can be connected to the base 211. In some examples, the bearing plate 214 can be disposed in abutment with the ground. In some examples, the bearing plate 214 can further have a weighing device (not shown).
[0049] In some examples, the bearing plate 214 can be detachably connected to the base 211. In other examples, the bearing plate 214 can be integrally formed with the base 211. In this way, relative movement between the bearing plate 214 and the base 211 can be reduced, thereby enabling the bearing plate 214 to better correspond to the range of movement of the robotic arm 23.
[0050] In some examples, the bearing plate 214 can be provided with a pattern, for example similar to the shape of a human foot, thereby facilitating the subject 3 to stand on the bearing plate 214 to receive implantation of the implant unit 1.
[0051] In some examples, the accommodation mechanism 22 can be disposed on the end seat 212 of the stand 21. In some examples, the accommodation mechanism 22 can have a plurality of cavities 221 (for example, cavity 221a, cavity 221b, cavity 221c, … cavity 221n) for accommodating the implant unit 1.
[0052] In some examples, the environment within each cavity 221 can be a sterilized environment.
[0053] In some examples, any one of the plurality of cavities 221 can have a separate retrieval outlet via which the implant unit 1 accommodated in the cavity 221 can be retrieved. In other examples, the plurality of cavities 221 can have a common retrieval outlet via which the plurality of implant units 1 accommodated in the plurality of cavities 221 can be transported and retrieved.
[0054] In some examples, when the robotic arm 23 picks up the implant unit 1 from the accommodation mechanism 22, the accommodation mechanism 22 can cause the implant unit 1 to protrude from the retrieval outlet, thereby facilitating the robotic arm 23 to pick up the implant unit 1. In some examples, when the robotic arm 23 picks up the implant unit 1 from the accommodation mechanism 22, the accommodation mechanism 22 can cause the housing 12 of the implant unit 1 to protrude from the retrieval outlet, thereby facilitating the robotic arm 23 to pick up the implant unit 1 by gripping the housing 12.
[0055] Figure 4 Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the robotic arm 23 implanting the implant unit 1 into the subject 3, according to an example of the present embodiment. Figure 5 Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram showing the robotic arm 23 picking up the implant unit 1 from the accommodation mechanism 22, according to an example of the present embodiment.
[0056] In some examples, the mechanical arm 23 can pick up the implant unit 1 from the containing mechanism 22, and can implant the implant unit 1 to the defined area 31 of the subject 3. In some examples, the mechanical arm 23 can pick up the implant unit 1 by clamping the outer shell 12 of the implant unit 1.
[0057] In some examples, the mechanical arm 23 can include a fixing mechanism 231 and a pushing mechanism 232. The fixing mechanism 231 can fix the defined area 31 of the subject 3 to align the physiological parameter monitor 11 with the defined area 31, and the pushing mechanism 232 can implant the in-vivo part 112 of the physiological parameter monitor 11 to the subcutaneous tissue of the subject 3 to implant the physiological parameter monitor 11 to the defined area 31 of the subject 3.
[0058] In some examples, the end of the fixing mechanism 231 close to the subject 3 can be formed as a clamping structure 2311 to fix the defined area 31 of the subject 3. In some examples, the clamping structure 2311 can have two oppositely arranged arc-shaped clamping pieces 2311a and 2311b, and the distance between the clamping pieces 2311a and 2311b can be reduced to fix, for example, the arm of the subject 3 (see Figure 4 ).
[0059] In some examples, the end of the fixing mechanism 231 away from the subject 3 can be connected to the containing mechanism 22. In other examples, the end of the fixing mechanism 231 away from the subject 3 can be connected to the support 21. In some examples, the end of the fixing mechanism 231 away from the subject 3 can be connected to the end seat 212 or the connecting column 213.
[0060] In some examples, the end of the fixing mechanism 231 close to the subject 3 and the end away from the subject 3 can include a plurality of joint arms movably connected to each other. In some examples, the fixing mechanism 231 and the pushing mechanism 232 can have substantially close moving ranges.
[0061] In some examples, the pushing mechanism 232 can include a housing 2321, a clamping piece 2322, and a driving part 2323. The housing 2321 can be formed as a hollow shape, the clamping piece 2322 can be movably arranged in the housing 2321, the clamping piece 2322 can have a proximal end close to the containing mechanism 22 and a distal end away from the containing mechanism 22, the clamping piece 2322 can be used to clamp the implant unit 1 from the containing mechanism 22, and the driving part 2323 can be connected with the housing 2321 and can move the housing 2321 to move the clamping piece 2322 to the defined area 31 of the subject 3.
[0062] In some examples, the housing 2321 can have a hollow cylindrical shape. In some examples, the housing 2321 can have a prismatic shape. In some examples, the housing 2321 can have a circular cylindrical shape. In some examples, an axial direction of the housing 2321 can be parallel or collinear to a direction of the object outlet of the cavity 221 of the containing mechanism 22.
[0063] In some examples, the clamp 2322 can be disposed in the hollow structure of the housing 2321. Also, in some examples, the clamp 2322 can move along the axial direction of the housing 2321.
[0064] In some examples, the driving portion 2323 can have a first guide rail 23231 disposed along a horizontal direction, a second guide rail 23232 disposed along the horizontal direction, and a third guide rail 23233 disposed along a vertical direction. In some examples, the third guide rail 23233 can move along the first guide rail 23231 and the second guide rail 23232 in the horizontal direction.
[0065] In some examples, the housing 2321 can be disposed on the third guide rail 23233 and can move along the third guide rail 23233 in the vertical direction.
[0066] In this case, by the first guide rail 23231, the second guide rail 23232, and the third guide rail 23233, the driving portion 2323 can drive the housing 2321 to move in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction, thereby moving the housing 2321 to the vicinity of the defined region 31 of the subject 3.
[0067] In some examples, the driving portion 2323 can further include a fourth guide rail 23234 disposed inside the housing 2321 and along the axial direction of the housing 2321. In some examples, the clamp 2322 can be disposed on the fourth guide rail 23234, thereby can move along the axial direction of the housing 2321.
[0068] In some examples, the clamping member 2322 can clamp the implant unit 1 at the taking-out exit of the containing mechanism 22. Specifically, first, the driving part 2323 can move the clamping member 2322 to the vicinity of the taking-out exit, and the clamping member 2322 can be in an open state, then the implant unit 1 can partially protrude from the taking-out exit, then the clamping member 2322 can be switched to a closed state to clamp the implant unit 1, for example, the shell 12 of the implant unit 1, then the driving part 2323 can drive the clamping member 2322 to move away from the containing mechanism 22 along the axial direction of the shell 2321, so as to take out the implant unit 1 from the containing mechanism 22, and finally, the driving part 2323 can drive the first guide rail 23231, the second guide rail 23232 and the third guide rail 23233, so as to move the shell 2321 to the vicinity of the defined area 31 of the subject 3, that is, to move the implant unit 1 clamped by the clamping member 2322 to the vicinity of the defined area 31 of the subject 3.
[0069] In some examples, the clamping member 2322 can clamp the shell 12 of the implant unit 1, and the driving part 2323 can apply a driving force towards the defined area 31, that is, to make the implant unit 1 move along the fourth guide rail 23234 towards the defined area 31, so as to make the in-vivo part 112 of the physiological parameter monitor 11 enter the subcutaneous tissue of the subject 3.
[0070] In some examples, the clamping member 2322 can implant the implant unit 1 into the defined area 31 of the subject 3, and during the implantation process, the extracorporeal part 111 of the physiological parameter monitor 11 can be attached to the defined area 31 of the subject 3, and the clamping member 2322 can push the physiological parameter monitor 11 towards the defined area 31, so as to make the in-vivo part 112 of the physiological parameter monitor 11 enter the subcutaneous tissue of the subject 3.
[0071] In some examples, the mechanical arm 23 can further include a pressure sensor (not shown) arranged at the front end of the pushing mechanism 232, which can be used to obtain the pressure between the pushing mechanism 232 and the skin surface layer of the subject 3. In this case, by obtaining the pressure between the pushing mechanism 232 and the skin surface layer of the subject 3, the driving force can be conveniently adjusted.
[0072] In some examples, the implant device 2 can further include a voice mechanism (not shown). The voice mechanism can be used to issue prompt information to the subject 3 in the form of voice.
[0073] Figure 6 is a schematic flow chart showing the process of implanting the implant unit 1 into the subject 3 by the implant device 2 according to the examples of the present embodiment. Hereinafter, the implant device 2 will be described in detail in combination with Figure 6 , implanting the implant unit 1 into the defined area 31 of the subject 3 by the implant device 2.
[0074] In some examples, as shown in FIG. 1, the medical institution implants the implant unit 1 into the defined area 31 of the examinee 3 through the implant device 2, which can include the following steps: Figure 6
[0075] The examinee 3 can be guided by the medical staff to disinfect the defined area 31 and stand on the bearing plate 214 (step S100). In some examples, the medical staff can use medical alcohol to disinfect the defined area 31. In some examples, there are a large number of examinees 3, and multiple examinees 3 can stand on the bearing plate 214 in turn according to the exclusion order to receive implantation.
[0076] The examinee 3 adjusts the standing posture on the bearing plate 214 under the prompting of the voice module, so that the fixing mechanism 231 of the mechanical arm 23 fixes the defined area 31 of the examinee 3 (step S200). Specifically, the examinee 3 can adjust the standing posture under the prompting of the voice mechanism so that the defined area 31 faces the mechanical arm 23 of the implant device 2, so that the fixing mechanism 231 of the mechanical arm 23 fixes the defined area 31. In some examples, the defined area 31 can be the arm of the examinee 3, such as the upper arm or the lower arm.
[0077] The mechanical arm 23 picks up the implant unit 1 from the containing mechanism 22 and moves the implant unit 1 to the vicinity of the defined area 31 of the examinee 3 (step S300). In some examples, the driving part 2323 drives the shell 2321 to move to the taking-out exit corresponding to the implant unit 1 to be picked up through the first guide rail 23231, the second guide rail 23232 and the third guide rail 23233, so as to move the clamping piece 2322 in the open state to the taking-out exit corresponding to the implant unit 1 to be picked up, and the containing mechanism 22 protrudes the implant unit 1 to be picked up from the taking-out exit so that the clamping piece 2322 can clamp the shell 12 of the implant unit 1. In some examples, the driving part 2323 can move the clamping piece 2322 away from the containing mechanism 22 through the fourth guide rail 23234, so as to take out the implant unit 1 from the containing mechanism 22.
[0078] The mechanical arm 23 implants the implant unit 1 into the defined area 31 of the examinee 3, so that the extracorporeal part 111 of the implant unit 1 is attached to the defined area 31 of the examinee 3, and the intracorporeal part 112 of the implant unit 1 is implanted into the subcutaneous tissue of the examinee 3 (step S400). In some examples, after the pushing mechanism 232 moves the implant unit 1 to the vicinity of the defined area 31 of the examinee 3, the driving part 2323 can move the clamping part 2322 towards the defined area 31 through the fourth guide rail 23234, so as to move the implant unit 1 towards the defined area 31, implant the intracorporeal part 112 of the implant unit 1 into the subcutaneous tissue of the examinee 3, and attach the extracorporeal part 111 of the implant unit 1 to the skin surface of the examinee 3. In some examples, the pushing mechanism 232 can measure the pressure between the pushing mechanism 232 and the skin surface of the examinee 3 through the pressure sensor, so as to control the driving force applied by the pushing mechanism 232 to the implant unit 1.
