[0055] A hand function training method based on a high-density electrode and a pressure feedback glove. The method uses the above-mentioned high-density electrode and pressure feedback glove. Each electrode on the electrode pad assembly is electrically stimulated one by one through a set program. The pressure generated by each knuckle of the finger stimulated by the electrode is detected by the pressure sensor assembly. The activity of the target finger is evaluated, and the best stimulation electrode group is obtained.

[0056] A plurality of small electrode pads are placed on the skin above the hand muscles to activate the specified muscle group. The muscle group receives different electrode stimulation, and activity data is automatically generated. The activity data is obtained by the pressure feedback system. At the same time, the data of finger movement is obtained. The pressure feedback system can quantify the force generated when each finger moves, and can be displayed in real time through the display screen to evaluate the activity of the patient's finger when electrically stimulated.

[0057] When the optimal stimulation current intensity is selected, the current data is set as E 电流At the same time, the current intensity is increased by one level, recorded as E+1 电流 For the maximum current intensity of the electrode, the upper limit value of the current intensity is set to reduce the current injury to the finger nerve. Since the finger nerve is in a damaged state at this time, it cannot sensitively perceive the real-time situation caused by the current stimulation. The level of current intensity is set as a system default setting, which can be redefined according to the requirements.

[0058] After the trial and error stage, different fingers are stimulated separately. If the stimulation current required by different knuckles of the same finger is different, the corresponding current intensity is adjusted for different knuckles. Compared with the previous single hand stimulation, this current stimulation scheme is more detailed and targeted for each knuckle. Each finger will touch the pressure sensor when stimulated. The pressure sensor transmits data to the driving unit under force. The driving unit determines the matching stimulation power intensity. Real-time current intensity data is transmitted to the current control unit. The current control unit sets the current data to lock the maximum current value at the current intensity increased by one level, ensuring the stability of the rehabilitation process. At the same time, the electrode pad assembly obtains the current intensity required by each knuckle and matches in turn.

[0059] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present application. It should be noted that for ordinary skilled persons in the art, without departing from the principles of the present application, several improvements and refinements can be made. These improvements and refinements should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present application.
