Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of enema equipment, and in particular to a smart enema ultrasound therapy instrument control system and the instrument itself. Background Technology

[0002] For the diagnosis, interventional treatment, and bowel cleansing of intestinal diseases, ultrasound examination is required to determine the location of intestinal lesions, intestinal obstruction, or intussusception. Then, an enema is performed to inject a certain amount of solution into the intestine through a rectal tube to help the patient defecate, expel gas, or inject medication to clarify the diagnosis and treatment. This is a mature diagnostic and treatment method.

[0003] However, current interventional diagnosis and treatment of intestinal diseases requires at least two sets of equipment: a medical ultrasound examination instrument and a surgical enema instrument. The ultrasound examination instrument requires one to two operators, and the enema instrument also requires one to two operators. This necessitates two separate medical teams, each using their own independent ultrasound and enema equipment, with the instruments and medical staff surrounding the operating table where the patient lies. Furthermore, to avoid inconvenience or entanglement of the instrument tubing, the medical staff operating the ultrasound examination instrument are on the same side as the ultrasound instrument, and the medical staff operating the enema instrument are on the same side as the enema instrument. During the procedure, the medical staff operating the ultrasound examination instrument are positioned on the same side as the ultrasound instrument. When examining the abdominal intestinal tract, the patient needs to tilt their head to view the human-machine interface of the ultrasound machine to diagnose intestinal problems. The medical staff operating the enema device need to constantly monitor the diagnostic results and adjust the treatment plan accordingly. Therefore, current interventional treatments for intestinal diseases require skilled cooperation from all medical personnel to ensure accurate enema-assisted treatment under ultrasound guidance. As can be seen, current interventional treatments for intestinal diseases require significant human and material resources, have a low level of integration, demand high levels of professionalism and cooperation from medical staff, are extremely inconvenient to operate, and are relatively expensive.

[0030] 1. The intelligent enema ultrasound therapy instrument control system of the present invention, through the configuration of enema parameter editing function in the human-machine interface, integrates an intestinal ultrasound transceiver and a switch component in the handheld controller. Based on ultrasound detection based on the intestinal ultrasound transceiver, the data processing unit is the main controller. Based on the instructions received by the switch component and the enema control parameters received by the human-machine interface, intelligent control of the enema medium unit is achieved. Based on the control system provided by the present invention, the operator only needs to edit the control parameters in advance in the human-machine interface to achieve intelligent parameterized control of the enema treatment operation when the liquid inlet command of the controller is triggered, based on the ultrasound examination operation performed by operating the controller.

[0031] 2. The handheld controller provided by this invention uses an intestinal ultrasound transceiver that is a dedicated ultrasound instrument for intestinal ultrasound detection. It does not require the integration of other ultrasound detection structural modules or the selection of corresponding working modes, thereby simplifying the function and reducing the equipment cost, learning cost, labor cost and usage cost of the treatment device.

[0049] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.

[0050] Example 1

[0051] Figure 1 The intelligent enema ultrasound therapy device control system, which is illustrated in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, includes: a controller, a data processing unit, a human-machine interface, and an enema medium unit;

[0052] The controller signal is connected to the data processing unit; the data processing unit signal is connected to the human-machine interface and the enema medium unit; the enema medium unit includes: an enema medium container, which is used to store enema medium, and the outlet of the enema medium unit is connected to the inlet of the enema pipe.

[0053] The controller includes: an intestinal ultrasound transceiver and a switching assembly. The switching assembly is used to respond to a user's detection command and transmit the detection command to the data processing unit, and to control the intestinal ultrasound transceiver to acquire intestinal ultrasound data in real time and transmit the acquired intestinal ultrasound data to the data processing unit based on the detection command; the switching assembly is also used to respond to a user's fluid infusion command and transmit it to the data processing unit.

[0054] The data processing unit is configured to receive the intestinal ultrasound data and detection instructions, and perform imaging processing on the intestinal ultrasound data based on the detection instructions, and transmit the resulting ultrasound image to the human-computer interaction interface; and to receive the liquid infusion instruction, and control the enema medium unit to transmit the enema medium to the enema pipeline based on the liquid infusion instruction, wherein the enema medium can be delivered into the patient's intestine through the enema pipeline.

[0055] The human-machine interface is used to display the ultrasound image, receive and display the enema control parameters set by the user, and transmit the enema control parameters to the data processing unit; the data processing unit is used to control the enema medium unit based on the control parameters when the liquid inlet command is received, so that the enema medium unit transmits the enema medium to the enema pipeline based on the enema control parameters.

[0056] In this embodiment, by configuring a function to edit enema parameters in the human-machine interface, an intestinal ultrasound transceiver and a switch assembly are integrated into the handheld controller. Based on ultrasound detection using the intestinal ultrasound transceiver, the data processing unit is the main controller. Intelligent control of the enema medium unit is achieved based on the instructions received by the switch assembly and the enema control parameters received by the human-machine interface. Based on the control system provided by this invention, the operator only needs to edit the control parameters in advance in the human-machine interface to achieve intelligent parameterized control of the enema treatment operation when the liquid inlet command of the controller is triggered, based on the ultrasound examination operation performed by operating the controller. Accordingly, the two sets of equipment, ultrasound examination instrument and surgical enema instrument, are intelligently integrated into an intelligent parameterized operation control system device of "single person, single machine, single operation". At the same time, the operator can obtain the patient's ultrasound image information in real time through the human-machine interface, which facilitates the operator to achieve precise operation and control based on the image information.

[0057] Example 2

[0058] In one possible implementation, the enema control parameters in the above-mentioned intelligent enema ultrasound therapy device control system include: temperature data and / or pressure data;

[0059] The enema medium unit includes a liquid pump and an instantaneous heater, which are signal-connected to the data processing unit. The liquid pump is detachably connected to the enema medium container and pumps the enema medium to the instantaneous heater. The instantaneous heater heats the enema medium and transmits the heated enema medium to the enema pipeline. The data processing unit, upon receiving the liquid inlet command, controls the liquid pump to pump the enema medium to the instantaneous heater based on the pressure data, and / or controls the instantaneous heater to heat the enema medium based on the temperature data and transmit the heated enema medium to the enema pipeline.

[0060] In this embodiment, an editable human-machine interface is provided to receive user-defined pressure and temperature values. Based on these user-defined pressure and temperature values, intelligent control of the enema medium unit is achieved, ensuring that the enema medium unit delivers a safe and suitable enema medium to the safety control module. During use, the user can pre-edit the corresponding pressure and temperature values ​​through the human-machine interface as needed. This allows the enema medium unit to add the enema medium based on the preset temperature value and deliver the enema medium based on the preset pressure value. This ensures that the enema medium entering the human intestine is within a suitable set temperature and pressure range, avoiding intestinal irritation caused by large temperature deviations or damage caused by large pressure deviations.

[0061] In one possible implementation, empirical parameters from operational experts are collected to form empirical value ranges for temperature and / or pressure. When the user touches the control parameter editing window in the corresponding human-machine interface, a pop-up window displays the corresponding empirical value ranges for temperature and / or pressure.

[0062] In one possible implementation, the aforementioned intestinal ultrasound transceiver is a dedicated intestinal ultrasound probe (e.g., the intestinal ultrasound probe disclosed in Chinese Patent No. 2017208087125). The data processing unit is equipped with a matching intestinal ultrasound imaging diagnostic device, which can perform real-time imaging based on the acquired ultrasound data. In use, after the overall control system equipment is started, the data processing unit will activate the intestinal ultrasound transceiver, enter the working mode, and acquire intestinal ultrasound data. After the operator finishes the operation and the probe leaves the human body for a preset time, the data acquisition unit will obtain this information and control the probe to enter the sleep mode. Then, the ultrasound transceiver will be activated the next time it comes into contact with the human body.

[0063] The handheld controller provided by this invention uses an intestinal ultrasound transceiver specifically designed for intestinal ultrasound detection. It eliminates the need to integrate other ultrasound detection modules or select corresponding operating modes, thereby simplifying functionality and reducing the equipment cost, learning cost, labor cost, and usage cost of the treatment device. Furthermore, by integrating real-time ultrasound imaging processing into the data processing unit, the controller housing can be further miniaturized and lightweighted (e.g., adopting a small mouse shape), making it convenient for users to hold and operate.

[0064] In one possible implementation, the detection instructions include: a first detection instruction and a second detection instruction;

[0065] The switching assembly includes an ultrasound conversion switch, which senses a first detection command or a second detection command selected by the user; wherein the first detection command is a black-and-white ultrasound detection command, and the second detection command is a color ultrasound detection command. In use, the user can issue a detection command and switch between detection command modes by touching the ultrasound conversion switch. When the user issues the first or second detection command through the ultrasound conversion switch, the data processing unit performs black-and-white imaging processing on the intestinal ultrasound data based on the first detection command, and performs color imaging processing on the intestinal ultrasound data based on the second detection command, so that the human-computer interface displays the corresponding black-and-white or color ultrasound image in real time.

[0066] In this embodiment, by setting an ultrasound conversion switch for dual-mode switching and a data processing unit with dual-mode imaging function, intelligent dual-mode ultrasound imaging selection is provided to the user. At the same time, the ultrasound conversion switch for dual-mode switching is set on a small controller for easy operation by the user.

[0067] In one possible implementation, the switch assembly further includes a vibration switch for sensing a user's vibration command; the controller also includes a vibrator, and the vibration switch controls the start and stop of the vibrator based on the vibration command. In use, the user can place the controller on the patient's abdomen and activate the vibrator by touching the vibration switch to assist in the delivery of the enema medium and improve the enema treatment effect through mechanical vibration.

[0068] In one possible implementation, the switching assembly further includes a first inlet switch and a second inlet switch, which are respectively used for a first inlet command and a second inlet command. The first inlet command is a continuous inlet command, and the second inlet command is a pulsed inlet command. In use, the user can select the appropriate inlet switch according to the patient's treatment needs. After receiving the corresponding inlet command, the data processing unit controls the enema medium unit to continuously deliver enema medium to the safety control module, or deliver enema medium according to a preset pulse cycle. Accordingly, this embodiment provides the user with an intelligent dual-mode inlet function, allowing the user to flexibly select the appropriate inlet mode according to the patient's treatment needs.

[0069] In one possible implementation, the control system further includes: a weight sensor, which is signal-connected to the data processing unit, and is used to acquire the weight of the enema medium in the enema medium container in real time and transmit it to the data processing unit;

[0070] The data processing unit is used to transmit the weight of the enema medium to the human-machine interface for display.

[0071] In this embodiment, the weight of the enema medium in the enema medium container is monitored in real time by a weight sensor, and the weight data is transmitted to the human-machine interface in real time by a data processing unit for intelligent display. This allows the user to obtain the remaining amount of enema medium in real time and remind the user to replenish the corresponding amount of enema medium in time when the remaining amount is insufficient.

[0072] In one possible implementation, the control system further includes a pressure sensor and a temperature sensor, which are disposed in the enema tubing and are signal-connected to the data processing unit.

[0073] The pressure sensor and the temperature sensor respectively collect the real-time pressure and real-time temperature of the enema medium in the enema pipeline and transmit them to the data processing unit, so that the data processing unit can transmit the real-time pressure and real-time temperature to the human-machine interface for display.

[0074] In this embodiment, pressure and temperature sensors installed in the enema pipeline acquire real-time pressure and temperature data of the enema medium in the safety control module, and the data is fed back to the human-machine interface for display through the data processing unit, so that the user can keep track of the pressure and temperature data of the enema medium that is about to enter the patient's intestines, providing data support for safe enema operation.

[0075] In one possible implementation, the enema conduit includes: a drain channel, the drain channel being equipped with a drain switch, the drain switch signal being connected to the data processing unit;

[0076] The switching assembly also includes a pressure relief switch, which is used to sense the user's liquid discharge command and transmit it to the data processing unit; the data processing unit controls the start and stop of the liquid discharge switch based on the liquid discharge command, so as to control the opening or closing of the liquid discharge channel.

[0077] It is understandable that sudden illnesses may occur during enema treatment. Without appropriate remedial measures, this could pose a safety hazard. Users can activate or deactivate the pressure relief switch on the controller as needed to release the enema medium promptly. In this embodiment, a drain channel and drain switch are configured in the safety control module. Based on the user's pressure relief command, the drain switch is controlled in real time to release the appropriate enema medium promptly in emergency situations, ensuring human safety.

[0078] In one possible implementation, the data processing unit is used to record and store the operation data of the human-computer interaction interface in real time via screen recording. In use, the user can select to activate the corresponding screen recording function through the human-computer interaction interface to achieve real-time recording and storage of enema operation data; simultaneously, the data processing unit transmits the stored enema operation data to a remote cloud server via a wireless network.

The second temperature sensor 503 on the first liquid guide pipe 501 detects the temperature of the flowing enema medium as the inlet temperature of the electric heating plate 506. The enema medium pumped out by the liquid pump 502 enters the fourth liquid guide pipe 505 through the second liquid guide pipe 504 and is heated to a set temperature by the electric heating plate 506. The heated enema medium then flows through the third liquid guide pipe 507 to the quick connector 105. The third temperature sensor 508 on the third liquid guide pipe 507 detects the temperature of the heated enema medium as the outlet temperature of the electric heating plate 506. The inlet temperature is used as the... The power regulator provides feedback that the temperature of the enema medium in the enema medium container 500 varies depending on the region, season, and weather conditions. This means the initial temperature of the enema medium input to the electric heating plate 506 differs. Based on this inlet temperature feedback, the power regulator adjusts the heating power of the electric heating plate 506 to ensure that enema media with varying initial temperatures are precisely heated to the set temperature. The outlet temperature is used to detect whether the enema medium has reached the set temperature. This allows for detection of any malfunction in the electric heating plate 506 that results in excessively high or low temperatures in the enema medium, improving the safety of the instantaneous heater and ensuring that the enema medium entering the human intestine is within a suitable set temperature range, thus avoiding intestinal irritation caused by large temperature deviations in the enema medium.

[0087] like Figure 5As shown, a weight sensor 509 is located on the top of the storage compartment 111. The weight sensor 509 is connected to the data processing unit 600. The weight sensor 509 is attached to the enema medium container 500 in the storage compartment 111 via a hook 511. The enema medium container 500 can be a liquid bag or a liquid bottle, such as a medical plastic bag, plastic bottle, or glass bottle. The capacity of the enema medium container 500 can vary, such as from 1L to 5L, but it is best that all the enema medium containers 500 are fixed to the same capacity for system settings and monitoring of usage or remaining volume. In this embodiment, the enema medium container 500 is a 3L liquid bag with a hanging ring at the top and a dispensing tube at the bottom. The outlet pipe is used to engage with the hook 511 and communicate with the first liquid guide pipe 501. Specifically, the first liquid guide pipe 501 penetrates the bottom plate of the storage compartment 111, and the outlet pipe can be directly connected to the first liquid guide pipe 501 within the storage compartment 111. The weight sensor 509 is connected to the data processing unit 600 via a wire. The weight sensor 509 is used to weigh the enema medium container 500. The data processing unit 600 receives the data from the weight sensor 509, which is the remaining volume of the enema medium in the enema medium container 500. The weight sensor 509 has a specification of 20KG. Specifically, the weight sensor 509 can be an existing electronic scale.

[0088] In use, open the cover plate 108 on the back of the main body 100, place the enema medium container 500 into the storage compartment 111, then suspend the enema medium container 500 under the hook 511, and connect the liquid outlet pipe to the first liquid guide pipe 501. At this time, the weight sensor 509 detects the total liquid volume of the enema medium container 500. Then, as the enema medium in the enema medium container 500 is continuously drawn by the liquid pump 502, the weight sensor 509 detects the remaining liquid volume of the enema medium container 500.

[0089] like Figure 7 , Figure 8As shown, the enema pipeline includes a safety control module 300; the safety control module 300 includes a three-way pipe 312 and a drain pipe 310; a pressure sensor 313 and a first temperature sensor 314 are provided at the three-way pipe 312. The pressure sensor 313 is used to detect the pressure of the enema medium in the enema pipeline, and the first temperature sensor 314 is used to detect the temperature of the enema medium entering the dual-lumen pipe 306. The first temperature sensor 314 has a specification of 3*30m, and the pressure sensor 313 has a specification of HM91. A drain switch is provided on the drain pipe 310. The drain switch is normally closed and is signal-connected to the data processing unit 600 (remotely controlled via the pressure relief switch assembly at the controller and through the data processing unit). The drain switch is preferably a solenoid valve 315, and the solenoid valve 315 has a specification of DC24V solenoid valve.

[0090] like Figures 9 to 12 As shown, the controller 400 includes a first housing 401 and an intestinal ultrasound transceiver 407. The first housing 401 is shaped like a small box, preferably a mouse, and more preferably an ergonomic mouse. The first housing 401 includes a left side, a right side, and a bottom side. A vibration switch 402, a drain switch 403, and a first finger groove 408 are provided on the left side of the first housing 401. The vibration switch 402 and the drain switch 403 are located in the upper region of the left side and are arranged one in front of the other. The first finger groove 408 is located in the lower region of the left side. The right side of housing 401 is provided with a continuous liquid inlet switch 404, a pulse liquid inlet switch 405, an ultrasonic conversion switch 406, and a second finger groove 409. The continuous liquid inlet switch 404, the pulse liquid inlet switch 405, and the ultrasonic conversion switch 406 are located in the upper right area, and the second finger groove 409 is located in the lower right area. The first housing 401, the vibration switch 402, the drain switch 403, the continuous liquid inlet switch 404, the pulse liquid inlet switch 405, and the ultrasonic conversion switch 406 are all made of plastic parts, generally using ABS plastic injection molding.

[0091] In this embodiment, the operator holding the controller 400 with their right hand is taken as a reference. Figure 11 As shown, the vibration switch 402 is located in front of the operator, away from the operator; the drain switch 403 is located behind the operator, close to the operator; the continuous inlet switch 404 is located in front of the operator, away from the operator; the pulse inlet switch 405 is located behind the operator, close to the operator; and the ultrasonic conversion switch 406 is located in the middle position below the continuous inlet switch 404 and the pulse inlet switch 405, above the second finger groove 409.

[0092] The intestinal ultrasound transceiver 407 is disposed inside the first housing 401. The bottom surface of the first housing 401 has an opening, and the bottom of the intestinal ultrasound transceiver 407 is disposed inside the opening. The bottom of the intestinal ultrasound transceiver 407 protrudes about 2 mm from the bottom surface of the first housing 401, so that the intestinal ultrasound transceiver 407 can contact the patient's abdomen when the controller 400 is in use. In this embodiment, the intestinal ultrasound transceiver 407 is an ultrasound instrument (ultrasound probe) specifically for intestinal ultrasound detection. It does not require the integration of other ultrasound detection structural modules or the selection of corresponding working modes, thereby reducing equipment costs.

[0093] The first housing 401 contains a vibrator. The control wires of the vibration switch 402, the drain switch 403, the continuous infusion switch 404, the pulse infusion switch 405, the ultrasound conversion switch 406, the intestinal ultrasound transceiver 407, and the vibrator are converged into a second wire bundle 410 and connected to the data processing unit 600. The vibration switch 402, drain switch 403, continuous infusion switch 404, pulse infusion switch 405, and ultrasound conversion switch 406 are all microswitches; pressing the switch initiates the corresponding operation, and releasing the switch immediately stops the operation. The drain switch 403 activates the function—initiating draining—when pressed, and stops the function when pressed again. The ultrasound conversion switch 406 switches the ultrasound image once per press—switching between black-and-white and color ultrasound images. In one embodiment, as... Figure 10 As shown, the main body 100 is equipped with an automatic reset winch 112. The second wire harness 410 is wound around the shaft of the winch 112. In this way, when the operator moves the controller 400 from the main body 100, the second wire harness 410 pulls the winch 112 to rotate. When the operator puts the controller 400 back into the main body 100, the winch 112 loses its traction and automatically resets and rotates to wind the second wire harness 410. Specifically, the automatic reset of the winch 112 can be achieved by elastic reset components such as torsion springs and tension springs. The winch 112 is made of metal or plastic.

[0094] In one embodiment, the first housing 401 is provided with a second communication interface, and a vibrator is provided inside the first housing 401. The control wires of the vibration switch 402, the drain switch 403, the continuous inlet switch 404, the pulse inlet switch 405, the ultrasound conversion switch 406, the intestinal ultrasound transceiver 407 and the vibrator are connected to the second communication interface. The second communication interface is connected to the data processing unit 600 through a second external wire harness.

[0095] In one embodiment, the winch 112 is mounted in the body 100 near the top of the boss 103 to meet the storage requirements of the controller 400.

[0096] In one embodiment, the controller 400 is detachably placed on the top surface of the boss 103, specifically including plug-in, snap-in, or magnetic connection.

[0097] In use, the operator holds the controller 400 and places it on the abdomen where the patient's intestines are located. The operator's right thumb is placed in the first finger groove 408, and the operator's right ring or little finger is placed in the second finger groove 409. The operator moves the controller 400 across the abdomen and uses the intestinal ultrasound transceiver 407 to perform ultrasound detection on the patient's intestines. During this process, the palm can press down on the first housing 401 to position it relative to the body. The thumb can operate the vibration switch 402 and / or the drainage switch 403. The operator's right index, middle, or ring finger can operate the continuous infusion switch 404 or the pulse infusion switch 405, and / or the ultrasound conversion switch 406. When the vibration switch 402 is pressed, the vibrator is activated, and the controller 400 vibrates, causing the patient's abdominal cavity to vibrate. To address some intestinal issues (such as providing intestinal massage therapy, or assisting in the delivery of enema media and enhancing the effectiveness of enema treatment), pressing the continuous infusion switch 404 activates the liquid pump 502 and the instantaneous heater. The enema media, heated to the set temperature, is continuously delivered into the patient's intestine via the safety control module 300 for enema operation. Pressing the pulse infusion switch 405 activates the liquid pump 502 and the instantaneous heater. The enema media, heated to the set temperature, is pulsed into the patient's intestine via the safety control module 300, creating an impact force to address some intestinal issues. Pressing the ultrasound conversion switch 406 allows switching between black-and-white and color ultrasound. After the enema operation is completed, pressing the drain switch 403 allows the enema waste liquid to be directly discharged via the safety control module 300.

[0098] In some specific embodiments, in addition to the data processing unit 600, there are also some control boards with corresponding functions, such as a heating temperature control board for the instant heater and an ultrasound control board for the intestinal ultrasound transceiver 407.

[0099] In other words, the controller 400 serves as the control module for the enema operation, the liquid pump 502, the instantaneous heater, and the safety control module 300 serve as the actuators for the enema operation, wherein the safety control module 300 serves as a consumable, and the controller 400 serves as both the control module and the actuator for the vibration operation.

[0100] For example Figure 13As shown, the human-computer interaction interface 200 is a display interface that is also an operation interface, including a patient information display area, an ultrasound image display area, a temperature display area, a pressure display area, and a fluid volume display area.

[0101] The patient information display area can display and edit one or more of the following: name, age, gender, preliminary diagnosis, ID number, case registration number, and contact information.

[0102] The ultrasound image display area can display black and white or color ultrasound images acquired by the intestinal ultrasound transceiver 407; the temperature display area can display the set temperature value and real-time temperature value of the enema medium, and can edit the set temperature value.

[0103] The pressure display area can display the set pressure value and real-time pressure value of the enema medium, and the set pressure value can be edited.

[0104] The liquid volume display area can display the total liquid volume of the enema medium container 500 and the remaining liquid volume in the enema medium container 500.

[0105] In a preferred embodiment, the data processing unit 600 is equipped with a residual liquid volume threshold. When the residual liquid volume in the enema medium container 500 is lower than the threshold, the residual liquid volume value on the human-machine interface 200 starts to flash to provide a visual alarm, indicating that the enema medium container 500 can be replaced. Alternatively, it can be used in conjunction with an alarm device for an audible alarm.

[0106] The enema medium is an enema solution, usually physiological saline.

[0107] In a further embodiment of the present invention, based on the above-described intelligent enema ultrasound therapy device control system and the therapy device, a usage control method is provided, the method comprising:

[0108] S1. The user sets the location of the patient's abdominal intestine on the controller 200 and activates the ultrasound conversion switch 406. The intestinal ultrasound transceiver 407 starts to collect ultrasound parameters and transmits them to the data processing unit 600.

[0109] S2. The data processing unit 600 performs imaging processing based on ultrasound parameters and transmits the data to the human-machine interface 200 for display. The user sets the corresponding enema control parameters on the human-machine interface 200 according to the ultrasound image. The human-machine interface 200 transmits the enema control parameters to the data processing unit 600.

[0110] S3. When the user activates the continuous infusion switch 404 and / or the pulse infusion switch 405, the controller 400 transmits the infusion command to the data processing unit 600. The data processing unit 600 controls the enema medium unit in conjunction with the received enema control parameters, controls the liquid pump 502 to pump the medium at a preset pressure, and the electric heating plate 506 heats the medium to a preset temperature before transmitting it to the enema pipeline, so that the enema medium at a suitable temperature and pressure is introduced into the patient's intestine through the enema pipeline for treatment.

The first control board is equipped with a first wireless transceiver. The data processing unit 600 is equipped with a paired first wireless transceiver.
