Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of sleep respiration detection evaluation and auxiliary adjustment, in particular to a cardiovascular-based sleep respiration evaluation and auxiliary adjustment method, system and device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The cardiovascular system and the respiratory system of the human body are a tightly coordinated and mutually influenced cardiopulmonary coupling working system, especially during sleep, the coupling coordination relationship becomes stronger. In addition, compared with the respiratory system, the cardiovascular system is a faster physiological system, and the heart rate is obviously higher than the respiratory frequency. This also makes the respiratory events such as smooth breathing, rapid breathing, and apnea can be directly observed and more finely described from the state changes of the cardiovascular system, whether in the task state or the resting state, the wake period or the sleep period.

[0003] At present, the existing sleep respiration detection evaluation technical scheme mainly relies on oral-nasal pressure, oral-nasal thermal and chest-abdominal belt pressure sensors or devices to directly detect and analyze, and completes the respiratory event detection, event type classification and event simple statistical analysis through waveform analysis. The existing technical scheme CN112971763A relates to a sleep respiration event detection device, which comprises a signal preprocessing module, a tidal volume calculation module, a threshold setting module, a respiratory event judgment module and a calibration module. According to the chest and abdominal respiration signals of the subject, the sleep respiration event is preliminarily determined, and then the blood oxygen saturation data and three-axis acceleration data corresponding to the chest and abdominal respiration signals are calibrated to determine the sleep respiration event. The sleep respiration event is respiratory sleep apnea or low ventilation. The respiratory sleep apnea is obstructive sleep apnea, central sleep apnea or mixed sleep apnea. The technical scheme mainly relies on threshold and counting method to detect and analyze the respiratory signal waveform to determine the sleep respiration event. Overall, the existing technical scheme lacks process observation, system quantification and evaluation calibration of sleep respiration events from the perspective of cardiovascular system to cardiopulmonary coupling system, especially lacks clear definition or feature quantification of sleep respiration event intensity from the perspective of respiratory dynamics and sleep phase state. In addition, the current sleep respiration regulation device is usually independent of the sleep respiration detection device, and most sleep respiration regulation devices can be connected to feedback regulation parameters but still use offline preset program control to complete device feedback regulation, which cannot perform intelligent, accurate and personalized dynamic auxiliary adjustment according to the real-time state of the user.

[0004] From the above, how to detect, observe and quantitatively evaluate sleep respiratory events through physiological changes of the cardiovascular system, further optimize and improve the efficiency of the existing sleep respiratory regulation device, and assist the user in sleep respiration and improve the sleep quality are problems to be further solved in the current product technical scheme and actual application scene.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0098] To more clearly illustrate the objectives and technical solutions of this invention, the invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of this invention, and not all embodiments. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without inventive effort should fall within the protection scope of this invention. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be arbitrarily combined with each other.

[0099] The applicant discovered that, similar to respiratory behavior, human cardiac physiological (ECG / pulse) signals differ significantly between sleep and wakefulness, exhibiting entirely different characteristics: First, sleep cardiovascular behavior and sleep respiratory behavior are a highly synergistic and mutually influential process. Sleep cardiovascular dynamic characteristic signals, such as sleep ECG-derived respiratory signals or heart rate variability signals, are very similar to sleep respiratory signals and are easier to collect and extract. Furthermore, sleep ECG / pulse signals, sleep ECG-derived respiratory signals, and heart rate variability signals can provide a more comprehensive description and accurate characterization of sleep respiratory events, especially in the analysis and prediction of breathing patterns and events; the greater the intensity of sleep respiratory events, the more intense the oscillations in the heart rate curve. Second, different sleep phases possess different sleep respiratory behavior characteristics; light sleep, deep sleep, and REM sleep, among others, have a significant impact on respiratory behavior patterns and the intensity of sleep respiratory events.

[0100] Therefore, this invention will use sleep cardiovascular signals as a basis to achieve scientific and comprehensive detection, analysis and quantitative evaluation of sleep breathing and sleep breathing cardiovascular events, and further complete the predictive analysis of sleep breathing cardiovascular events and the real-time generation of sleep breathing regulation strategies, thereby realizing the integration of scientific detection, evaluation and dynamic auxiliary regulation of users' sleep breathing, effectively assisting users' sleep breathing and improving sleep quality.

[0101] Combination Figure 1 As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for evaluating and assisting in the regulation of sleep breathing based on cardiovascular function, comprising the following steps:

[0102] P100: Collecting, processing and dynamics analysis of sleep cardiovascular signals of a user, extracting sleep respiratory cardiovascular dynamics signals, identifying sleep respiratory cardiovascular events and event intensity.

[0103] The first step is to collect and process cardiovascular signals of a user during sleep to obtain sleep cardiovascular signals.

[0104] In this embodiment, the cardiovascular signals include at least any of electrocardiogram signals and pulse signals. The collection and processing of the cardiovascular signals include at least collection and acquisition, analog-to-digital conversion, resampling, re-reference, de-artifacting, noise reduction, notch filtering, band-pass filtering, mean filtering, smoothing processing, and signal time window segmentation.

[0105] In this embodiment, a single-channel collection and monitoring of sleep electrocardiogram signals of a user is performed by a single-lead electrocardiogram monitor, the collection position is above the left chest, and the sampling rate is 1024 Hz. The electrocardiogram signals are processed by resampling (256 Hz), de-artifacting, correction, wavelet noise reduction, and 0.5-40 Hz band-pass filtering to obtain sleep cardiovascular signals.

[0106] The second step is to perform dynamics analysis on the sleep cardiovascular signals to obtain sleep respiratory cardiovascular dynamics signals.

[0107] In this embodiment, the dynamics analysis includes at least extraction of electrocardiogram-derived respiratory signals, extraction of heart rate curves, and identification and extraction of electrocardiogram PQRST waveforms. The sleep respiratory cardiovascular dynamics signals include at least any of electrocardiogram-derived respiratory signals, heart rate signals, electrocardiogram P wave signals, electrocardiogram QRS wave signals, and electrocardiogram T wave signals.

[0108] In this embodiment, electrocardiogram-derived respiratory (EDR) signals and heart rate signals are extracted from sleep electrocardiogram signals as sleep respiratory cardiovascular dynamics signals. The sampling rates of the above-mentioned signals are all 256 Hz. In actual application scenarios, a person skilled in the art can extract electrocardiogram-derived respiratory (EDR) signals and heart rate signals by means of basic general technologies, various mature algorithms or software in the field of electrocardiogram signal processing, while extracting and identifying P, QRS, and T waves in electrocardiogram signals. These signals, like traditional sleep respiratory signals (oral and nasal pressure, oral and nasal thermosensitive, and chest and abdominal belt pressure, etc.), have good sleep respiratory dynamics description characteristics.

[0109] The third step is to perform event detection analysis on the sleep respiratory cardiovascular dynamics signals to identify and extract sleep respiratory cardiovascular events and event intensity.

[0110] In this embodiment, the event detection analysis specifically refers to waveform feature recognition and label extraction of sleep respiratory cardiovascular dynamics signals according to a preset sleep respiratory event knowledge base and / or a machine learning model, to obtain relevant information of sleep respiratory cardiovascular events. The sleep respiratory cardiovascular events at least include event type, start time, end time, duration, peak-to-valley value, peak-to-valley time, event intensity, and event level.

[0111] In this embodiment, the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event detection model is obtained by learning and training of electrocardio-derived respiration (EDR) signals and event label information through machine learning technology, and data modeling. Further, the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event detection model can quickly and accurately detect and identify sleep respiratory cardiovascular events, and further extract various information of sleep respiratory cardiovascular events through waveform feature analysis.

[0112] In actual application scenarios, the joint use of electrocardio-derived respiration signals and heart rate signals can also well identify and extract sleep respiratory cardiovascular events. First, the start time, end time, and duration of sleep respiratory event occurrence are extracted from the waveform changes of electrocardio-derived respiration signals; second, the peak-to-valley value and peak-to-valley time are extracted from the heart rate curve signal by comparing the start time and end time, and the event intensity is preliminarily calculated; finally, the event type and event level are preliminarily determined according to the sleep respiratory clinical rules through the waveform changes of electrocardio-derived respiration signals and heart rate curve signals. In the subsequent combination of sleep respiratory cardiovascular feature changes, the event intensity is further corrected and updated. It is worth noting that the stress changes of different users and different states of heart rate for sleep respiratory cardiovascular events are not the same, plus the different basic heart rates, so the basic situation and current situation of the user need to be considered when the event level is preliminarily set according to the heart rate.

[0113] In this embodiment, the event intensity is specifically determined by the duration of sleep respiratory cardiovascular events, the peak-to-valley value and peak-to-valley time of dynamics signals, and the amplitude changes of sleep respiratory cardiovascular features and sleep phase staging. In this embodiment, the generation and calculation method of event intensity is specifically:

[0114] 1) Obtain the start time, end time, duration, peak-to-valley value, peak-to-valley time of sleep respiratory cardiovascular events, and signal feature threshold value;

[0115] 2) Calculate the relative change amount of the peak-to-valley value and the signal feature threshold value of sleep respiratory cardiovascular events to obtain the peak-to-valley relative value;

[0116] 3) Calculate the linear slope according to the start time, peak-to-valley value, and peak-to-valley time of sleep respiratory cardiovascular events to obtain the peak-to-valley front slope;

[0117] 4) Calculate the linear slope according to the end time, peak value and valley value of the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event, to obtain the peak-valley trailing edge slope;

[0118] 5) Calculate the event intensity according to the numerical combination of the duration, peak-valley relative value, peak-valley leading edge slope and peak-valley trailing edge slope of the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event.

[0119] In actual application scenarios, the numerical combination calculation method of the event intensity is selected according to the actual situation of different user scenarios. Two calculation formulas are provided in this embodiment to state the construction method.

[0120] The first calculation formula method of the event intensity is specifically:

[0121]

[0122] The second calculation formula method of the event intensity is specifically:

[0123] eti=Td*Pv*(||LSp||+||RSp||)

[0124] Wherein, eti is the event intensity, Td is the duration of the sleep respiratory event, Pv is the peak-valley relative value, LSp is the peak-valley leading edge slope, RSp is the peak-valley trailing edge slope, and || || is the absolute value operation.

[0125] P200: performing feature analysis on the sleep cardiovascular signal and the sleep respiratory cardiovascular dynamics signal to obtain sleep respiratory cardiovascular features and comparing the relative changes of the features during the occurrence of the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event to correct the event intensity.

[0126] Step 1, performing feature analysis on the sleep cardiovascular signal and the sleep respiratory cardiovascular dynamics signal to obtain sleep respiratory cardiovascular features.

[0127] In this embodiment, the feature analysis at least includes numerical feature analysis, envelope feature analysis, time-frequency feature analysis and nonlinear feature analysis; wherein the nonlinear feature at least includes entropy feature, fractal feature and complexity feature.

[0129] It is worth mentioning that in actual application scenarios, if the signal (sleep cardiovascular signal or sleep respiratory cardiovascular dynamics signal) is too long, the signal is divided into several small signals, the signal characteristics of each small signal are obtained, and finally the average value of all small segment corresponding signal characteristics is calculated as the sleep respiratory cardiovascular characteristics, especially when calculating the nonlinear characteristics. But need to consider the influence of the start and end point interval of sleep respiratory event.

[0130] The second step is to identify the sleep phase stage according to the sleep respiratory cardiovascular characteristics, and generate a sleep phase curve.

[0131] In this embodiment, the sleep phase stage at least includes wakefulness period, light sleep period, deep sleep period and rapid eye movement sleep period; the sleep phase stage and the generation method of the sleep phase curve are specifically:

[0132] 1) Through machine learning, the sleep respiratory cardiovascular characteristics of the large-scale sleep user sample and the corresponding sleep stage data are learned and trained and data modeling is performed to obtain a sleep phase stage model;

[0133] 2) The sleep respiratory cardiovascular characteristics of the current user are input into the sleep phase stage model to obtain the corresponding sleep phase stage;

[0134] 3) The sleep phase stage values of all signal time windows are extracted in time sequence to obtain a sleep phase curve.

[0135] The third step is to compare and analyze the relative changes of the characteristics during the occurrence of the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event according to the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event and the sleep respiratory cardiovascular characteristics, and obtain the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event characteristic change amount.

[0136] In this embodiment, the heart rate variability characteristics (heart rate, heart rate variability coefficient, RR interval and NN interval) are selected as the key characteristics of the sleep respiratory cardiovascular characteristics. The sleep respiratory cardiovascular characteristics in the middle interval of the start time of the current sleep respiratory cardiovascular event and the end time of the last sleep respiratory cardiovascular event are taken as the comparison interval of the current sleep respiratory cardiovascular event. The sleep respiratory cardiovascular characteristics during the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event and the sleep respiratory cardiovascular characteristics in the comparison interval are compared and analyzed to extract the relative change amount and obtain the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event characteristic change amount.

[0137] In this embodiment, the calculation formula of the relative change of the characteristics is:

[0138]

[0139] Wherein, iFea is the relative change of the characteristics, FE i , FB i are the characteristic values during the occurrence and the comparison interval respectively, and || || is the absolute value calculation.

[0140] In actual application scenarios, the distance, correlation, and other relationship characteristic values of the sleep respiratory cardiovascular features in the event period and the contrast interval of the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event are used to replace the relative change amount to realize feature comparison and analysis in the event period and the contrast interval, and also can evaluate the occurrence features and state changes of the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event.

[0141] Fourthly, the event intensity of the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event is corrected according to the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event feature change amount and the sleep phase staging.

[0142] In this embodiment, the correction method of the event intensity is specifically as follows:

[0146] 4) The product of the event feature relative change coefficient, the sleep phase correction coefficient, and the dynamics signal source correction coefficient, and the numerical value of the event intensity is used as the corrected event intensity of the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event.

[0147] In this embodiment, the feature change amount of the heart rate variability feature (heart rate, heart rate variability coefficient, RR interval, and NN interval) in the sleep respiratory cardiovascular event feature change amount is obtained through numerical weighting calculation to obtain the event feature relative change coefficient.

[0148] In this embodiment, the comparison relationship in the preset sleep phase-correction coefficient table is as follows: wake-up period-0.80, light sleep period-0.95, deep sleep period-0.90, and rapid eye movement sleep period-1.0.

[0149] In this embodiment, the comparison relationship in the preset signal source-correction coefficient table is as follows: electrocardiogram-derived respiratory signal-1.0, heart rate signal-0.95, electrocardiogram P wave signal-0.80, electrocardiogram QRS wave signal-0.85, and electrocardiogram T wave signal-0.70.

[0150] In actual application scenarios, there are great differences in sleep breathing behavior and cardiovascular behavior in different sleep phase stages, and the sleep breathing behavior, disorder occurrence probability and intensity will also have great differences, so it is necessary to combine the cardiovascular physiological state and sleep phase information to re-correct the intensity of sleep breathing behavior or event.

[0154] In this embodiment, the ARMA method is selected to perform trend prediction on the sleep breathing cardiovascular dynamics signal.

[0155] The second step is to perform trend prediction on the sleep breathing cardiovascular feature to obtain a breathing cardiovascular feature prediction signal.

[0156] In this embodiment, the ARMA method is selected to perform trend prediction on the sleep breathing cardiovascular feature.

[0157] The third step is to perform event detection analysis on the cardiovascular dynamics prediction signal and the breathing cardiovascular feature prediction signal to obtain a predicted sleep breathing cardiovascular event and identify the event occurrence trend.

[0158] In this embodiment, first, the aforementioned event detection analysis method is used to input the cardiovascular dynamics prediction signal into the constructed sleep breathing cardiovascular event detection model to identify and extract the sleep breathing cardiovascular event and event intensity; second, the aforementioned event intensity correction method is used to complete the re-correction of the event intensity; and finally, the key information of the predicted sleep breathing cardiovascular event is obtained.
