Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of computer technology applications, and in particular to a combined rehabilitation assistance system and method combining transcranial electrotherapy and digital therapy. Background Art
[0002] Neural oscillation is one of the basic neural mechanisms that memory and learning rely on. External stimulation can induce neural entrainment (or neural oscillatory entrainment). Neural entrainment refers to the gradual synchronization of the phase of neural oscillation activity in the brain with the external stimulation rhythm under the drive of external rhythmic stimulation. For example, when watching a concert, people will wave light sticks to the rhythm of the music. The rhythm of the music and its voice information stimulate the auditory system to produce neural entrainment, which in turn produces neural activity with the same rhythm through the motor system, which is manifested as waving light sticks. Many studies have shown that neural oscillation entrainment can enhance the effect of speech and language learning and rehabilitation.
[0003] Digital therapy is a diagnostic and treatment measure for certain disorders / diseases that is based on evidence-based medicine and driven by digital technology. Its core is "digital technology based on evidence-based medicine." It is an auxiliary or replacement for traditional therapies. They can be used alone or in conjunction with chemical drugs, equipment or other therapies. The biggest feature of digital therapy is the application of digital technology to real diseases. For example, video games driven by artificial intelligence can improve the attention performance of children with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), cloud computing and big data can be used for long-term rehabilitation management of diabetes, and related intelligent series software can help children with autism recover more efficiently.

[0023] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the scheme of the present invention, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0024] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second" and the like in the specification, claims and drawings of the present invention are used to distinguish different objects rather than to limit a specific order.
[0025] It should also be noted that the following embodiments of the present invention may be executed separately, or in combination with each other, and the embodiments of the present invention do not impose specific limitations on this.
[0026] Technical terms involved in the embodiments of this application:
[0027] Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation, abbreviated as tACS;
[0028] Individualized Education Plan, referred to as IEP.
[0029] The embodiment of the present invention provides a combined rehabilitation assistance system combining transcranial electrotherapy and digital therapy. Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a combined rehabilitation assistance system combining transcranial electrotherapy and digital therapy provided by an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 1 As shown, the combined rehabilitation assistance system combining transcranial electrotherapy and digital therapy provided in the embodiment of the present application includes:

[0031] Specifically, the combined rehabilitation assistance system combining transcranial electrotherapy and digital therapy provided in the embodiment of the present application is divided into three parts during the rehabilitation treatment process:
[0032] Part 1, evaluation: the mobile terminal is equipped with digital therapy software, and the rehabilitation therapist guides the user according to the preset evaluation scale in the digital therapy software, and generates an evaluation result according to the feedback results collected from the user, wherein the feedback result may include: the user's point selection operation on the mobile terminal and / or the voice issued according to the guidance (i.e., the voice behavior data in the embodiment of the present application);
[0033] Part 2: Generate a specific rehabilitation program and a tACS program and conduct rehabilitation training: The mobile terminal automatically generates a specific rehabilitation program and a tACS program through the digital therapy software according to the evaluation results generated in the first part. In the embodiment of the present application, the specific rehabilitation program may be an IEP. The mobile terminal collects the combination of the voice of the rehabilitation therapist, the voice of the user and / or the pre-stored audio material in the digital therapy software. According to the IEP and tACS program, a control signal is generated through the multimedia content in the IEP (for example, auditory and visual training content) combined with the voice collected by the mobile terminal. The control signal is used to trigger and control the electrodes at each point in the head-mounted device to perform electrical signal stimulation on the corresponding position of the user;
[0034] The third part is to generate a rehabilitation report: the digital therapy software in the mobile terminal generates a rehabilitation report based on the voice behavior data and EEG signals fed back by the user during the rehabilitation training in the second part.
[0035] In an embodiment of the present application, the signals of electrodes at various positions triggered by the head mounted device according to the control signal are modulated in real time according to the auditory and visual content required for training.
[0036] It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, the mobile terminal can generate multimedia training materials to guide user training in real time by loading the digital therapy software, and collect the guiding voice and behavioral actions of the rehabilitation therapist in real time.
[0037] Optionally, the mobile terminal 14 includes: an evaluation module, wherein the evaluation module is used to obtain the user's feedback results on the preset evaluation scale through a preset evaluation scale according to the guidance of the digital therapy software, and perform evaluation based on the feedback results to obtain an evaluation result.
[0038] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the patient (i.e., the user in the embodiment of the present application) uses a mobile terminal to evaluate his or her speech and language disorder. The evaluation method is: the patient, with the assistance of a rehabilitation therapist, uses a professional evaluation scale (i.e., the preset evaluation scale in the embodiment of the present application) to complete the evaluation on the mobile terminal by clicking and pronouncing.
[0039] Further, optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the preset assessment scales include: Boston Diagnostic Aphasia Examination Scale, Western Aphasia Battery, SS Method Assessment Scale, Frenchay Dysarthria Checklist, Gesell Developmental Scale, at least one or a combination of two.
[0040] Among them, in the embodiment of the present application, the preset assessment scale is used to evaluate mental disorders such as adult aphasia, autism, language delay, Alzheimer's disease, stroke, etc.
[0041] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the mobile terminal 14 supports the automatic conversion of the paper assessment scale into a digital assessment scale after scanning. In addition, the preset assessment scale in the embodiment of the present application is only illustrated by the above example, and is based on the implementation of the combined rehabilitation auxiliary system combining transcranial electrotherapy and digital therapy provided in the embodiment of the present application, and is not specifically limited.
[0042] Optionally, the assessment results include: strong capabilities and weak capabilities.
[0043] Among them, in the embodiment of the present application, the evaluation module automatically outputs the evaluation results of the evaluation scale and highlights the advantages and disadvantages;
[0044] Taking autism as an example, advantageous abilities may be: helping to improve the child's personal function, or demonstrating obviously superior abilities. If a child with poor cognitive abilities has a positive learning attitude, which helps the child learn, then a positive learning attitude is the child's advantageous ability. For example, in terms of sports, the child may be able to imitate the gross movements of adults.
[0045] Weak abilities may be abilities that affect or hinder personal development or abilities that are obviously difficult to achieve. If a child often uses head-butting to gain attention from others, then inappropriate ways of gaining attention are the child's weak abilities.
[0046] Optionally, the mobile terminal 14 also includes: a program generation module and a signal trigger module, wherein the program generation module is used to generate a specific rehabilitation program according to the evaluation results through the digital therapy software, and generate a tACS program according to the distribution of strong and weak abilities in the evaluation results, the user's rehabilitation needs and rehabilitation target training schedule; the signal trigger module is used to control the head-mounted device to apply transcranial electrical signals to the user by playing the multimedia training content in the specific rehabilitation program combined with the tACS program.
[0047] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the specific rehabilitation program may be an IEP, wherein the process of automatically generating an IEP may be based on an evaluation report, according to the planned rehabilitation cycle and the content to be trained every day, and the rehabilitation goals to be achieved every day are planned accordingly, and the rehabilitation therapist conducts the course based on the IEP.
[0048] In the embodiment of the present application, the tACS program can be a digital therapy tACS program, which is generated based on the distribution of strong and weak abilities in the assessment report, the patient's own language rehabilitation needs (i.e., the user's rehabilitation needs in the embodiment of the present application), and the rehabilitation therapist's rehabilitation target training arrangement (i.e., the rehabilitation target training arrangement plan in the embodiment of the present application).
[0049] In addition, in the embodiments of the present application, in addition to language rehabilitation needs, it also includes: cognition, behavior, emotions, insomnia, anxiety, tinnitus, hyperactivity, learning difficulties, etc.
[0050] Optionally, the signal trigger module is also used to send a control signal for controlling the transcranial electrical stimulation signal to the head-mounted device 12 according to the stimulation trigger mode and stimulation strategy in the tACS scheme.
[0051] Further, optionally, the stimulation trigger mode includes: applying a control signal that triggers the tACS signal based on a specific target sound; applying a control signal that triggers the tACS signal when it is detected that the collected speech meets a specific speech condition; applying a control signal that triggers the tACS signal when it is detected that the rehabilitation training meets a specific logic; applying a control signal that triggers the tACS signal when it is detected that the number of syllable repetitions in the collected speech is greater than or equal to a preset number of times; outputting a control signal that triggers the tACS signal corresponding to the collected speech; the stimulation strategy includes: after detecting that the speech is filtered through a bandpass filter, extracting the time domain envelope of multiple frequency bands and matching electrical stimulation parameters for each frequency band, outputting a control signal that triggers the tACS signal in the form of a multi-channel electrode; applying a control signal that triggers the tACS signal with the same frequency and phase according to the frequency of the detected speech syllable.
[0052] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the stimulation trigger mode includes:
[0053] 1. Stimulate specific target voices: The therapist can manually input and specify several specific target voices, for example, "thank you". When the digital therapy system detects the voice of "thank you", the mobile terminal will send a control signal to the head-mounted device worn by the patient. The control signal is used to apply a tACS signal to the patient through the head-mounted device (that is, the control signal that triggers the tACS signal based on the specific target sound in the embodiment of the present application). The digital therapy system will also provide a variety of specific voices for the therapist to choose based on the weak capabilities in the assessment report. In the embodiment of the present application, specific target sounds can include: voice signals, and also include a variety of sound signals such as music and white noise. Among them, the user and the therapist emit voice, and the digital therapy software and mobile terminal can emit other sounds such as voice, music, and white noise.
[0054] 2. Apply tACS when certain speech conditions are met: The therapist can manually set certain speech conditions, for example, "apply stimulation when vowels appear" (i.e., specific speech conditions in the embodiments of the present application). When vowels appear in the speech of the patient or therapist during rehabilitation training, tACS will be applied (i.e., in the embodiments of the present application, when the detected and collected speech meets specific speech conditions, a control signal that triggers the tACS signal is applied).
[0055] 3. Apply tACS when a certain logic is met: The digital therapy system will identify the logical relationship between speech during rehabilitation training, and automatically apply tACS when the set conditions are met. For example, when the set condition is "when a noun appears twice, apply stimulation to the next adjective" (that is, the specific logic in the embodiment of the present application), tACS will be automatically applied when the condition is met (that is, when it is detected that the rehabilitation training meets the specific logic in the embodiment of the present application, a control signal that triggers the tACS signal is applied).
[0056] 4. When the therapist repeats certain syllables multiple times (number of repetitions ≥ 2, 2 can be the preset number in the embodiment of the present application), tACS is applied: In the rehabilitation course, the therapist will often repeat certain syllables / phrases at a high frequency for child patients so that the child patients can repeatedly perceive, understand, and consolidate. This part of syllables / phrases is often also part of the rehabilitation goal. Therefore, when the system detects repetitive syllables, tACS is applied (that is, in the embodiment of the present application, when the number of repetitions of a syllable in the collected speech is greater than or equal to the preset number, a control signal that triggers the tACS signal is applied).
[0057] 5. Normalized stimulation: Based on the detected speech signal, normalized transcranial electrical stimulation is continuously output to enhance the patient's perception and processing of real speech and language signals by the sensory, cognitive, speech, and auditory brain areas (i.e., the control signal of the triggering tACS signal corresponding to the collected speech output in the embodiment of the present application).
[0058] It should be noted that the stimulation trigger mode in the embodiment of the present application supports task recognition in the mobile terminal, that is, automatically identifying the person object that makes the voice.
[0059] In the present application embodiment, the stimulation strategy includes:
[0060] Strategy 1: Figure 2 A schematic diagram of tACS signal generation in a combined rehabilitation assisting system combining transcranial electrotherapy and digital therapy provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 2As shown, by collecting the teaching voice of the rehabilitation therapist during the rehabilitation course, or independently generating the training voice, filtering it through a band-pass filter (the number of frequency bands ≥ 1), extracting the time domain envelope of multiple frequency bands, matching the electrical stimulation parameters for each frequency band, and outputting transcranial electrical stimulation simultaneously in the form of multi-channel electrodes (that is, in the embodiment of the present application, after the voice is detected and filtered through a band-pass filter, the time domain envelope of multiple frequency bands is extracted, and the electrical stimulation parameters are matched for each frequency band, the control signal that triggers the tACS signal is output in the form of multi-channel electrodes). Figure 2 In the process, the mobile terminal or the external microphone of the mobile terminal collects voice information, which is preprocessed by a bandpass filter and an envelope detector, and further processed by the IEP and tACS schemes in the mobile terminal to generate electrical pulses, which are stimulated by the ACS electrodes at various points in the head-mounted device.
[0061] The process of bandpass filtering can be: using a variety of filtering techniques to remove noise and unnecessary frequency components. For example, a bandpass filter is used to retain sound signals in a specific frequency band, and multi-level filtering is performed according to different frequency ranges to obtain a purer audio signal input. For example, a low-pass filter with a high cutoff frequency is used for high-frequency noise.
[0062] Extracting the time domain envelope of multiple frequency bands can be done by applying specific algorithms and techniques, for example, by demodulating or analyzing the audio signal to separate the envelope information whose amplitude varies with time. This step involves performing operations such as fast Fourier transform and Hilbert transform on the signal, and then extracting the envelope features based on relevant calculations.
[0063] The electrical stimulation parameters for each frequency band can be matched as follows: First, the intensity and duration of the stimulation are determined based on the extracted envelope information. Stronger envelope parts correspond to stronger electrical stimulation to simulate the intensity changes of the sound. At the same time, adjustments are made based on the individual differences and adaptability of the patients. For example, starting with a lower stimulation intensity and gradually increasing it, observing the patient's response to determine the most appropriate range.
[0064] In the embodiment of the present application, the current intensity can be set to: 0.1mA to 3mA, the stimulation duration can be set to: 1min to 60min, and the duration can be extended cyclically; the stimulation frequency can be set to: 1hz to 2000hz, and the stimulation waveform includes but is not limited to sine waves, square waves, and pulse signals. For example, when encountering a low-frequency sound signal, the pulse width of the electrical stimulation is set to 100 microseconds and the current intensity is set to 1.5mA; and for a high-frequency sound signal, the pulse width is set to 5 microseconds and the circuit strength is set to 1mA. The characteristics of sounds of different frequencies are simulated by corresponding electrical stimulation parameters, thereby helping patients better perceive and understand the sounds.
[0065] Strategy 2: According to the frequency of speech syllables, tACS with the same frequency and phase is applied. The syllable frequency of natural speech is between 1 Hz and 10 Hz. The stimulation points include: superior temporal gyrus. The stimulation waveforms include: sine wave, square wave, pulse signal. The current intensity is: 0.1 mA to 3 mA. The stimulation duration is: 1 min to 60 min, which can be extended in a cycle.
[0066] Optionally, the rehabilitation report includes: a rehabilitation summary report that meets specific regulations, an assessment result corresponding to an assessment scale, the process of executing the tACS program, and EEG changes of the user based on stimulation signals during the execution of the tACS program.
[0067] Specifically, the following parts of the rehabilitation report in the embodiments of this application:
[0068] Part 1: Rehabilitation report that complies with the relevant requirements of the China Disabled Persons’ Federation (i.e., the rehabilitation summary report that meets specific regulations in the embodiment of this application): including daily / weekly / monthly annual evaluation and summary;
[0069] Part 2: the latest evaluation result corresponding to the evaluation scale (i.e., the evaluation result corresponding to the evaluation scale in the embodiment of the present application);
[0070] Part III: Based on the digital therapy tACS program, the overall situation of tACS application is given, including the total number of tACS, duration, ratio of enhanced stimulation to normalized stimulation, triggering of four dimensions of enhanced stimulation, and the start of one dimension of normalized stimulation, as well as the changes of these indicators in the time dimension after multiple rehabilitation training / courses (i.e., the process of the tACS program in the embodiment of the present application during execution);
[0071] Part 4: During the implementation of tACS, the patient's EEG changes are collected through multi-channel electrodes at the same time, which serves as one of the bases for tACS to adjust the stimulation parameters in real time. The change trend is part of the summary report (that is, the user's EEG changes based on the stimulation signal during the execution of the tACS program in the embodiment of the present application).
[0072] Optionally, the head mounted device 12 is also used to apply a transcranial electrical stimulation signal to the user according to the control signal output by the mobile terminal 14 according to a specific rehabilitation program and a tACS program, and obtain the user's EEG changes based on the stimulation signal.
[0073] In summary, in the embodiment of the present application, the mobile terminal 14 may be a tablet computer, and the head-mounted device 12 may be an EEG positioning cap, wherein the EEG positioning cap includes multiple stimulation sites; the tablet computer is equipped with digital therapy software, wherein the digital therapy software collects the user's voice during the rehabilitation process to provide corresponding information for evaluation, rehabilitation process and report generation.
[0074] Combining the above IEP and tACS, Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the architecture of an execution process in a combined rehabilitation assistance system combining transcranial electrotherapy and digital therapy provided by an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 3 As shown, an assessment is performed for aphasia, autism, language delay and other diseases to obtain an assessment result, and an IEP and tACS are generated based on the assessment result. Specific stimulation parameters + training program planning are output based on the IEP and tACS, and rehabilitation treatment is performed on the patient through multi-channel transcranial electrical stimulation, wherein the stimulation location can be the temporal lobe and / or frontal lobe.
[0075] In the present application embodiment, the treatment mode includes:
[0076] Treatment mode 1: Manual language training. The voice collection system in the mobile terminal collects the voice of the therapist, which is processed by the signal processing unit in the mobile terminal to form a corresponding electrical stimulation signal. Then, through the point electrodes on the head-mounted device, microcurrent is generated to stimulate the patient's temporal lobe and related cortex.
[0077] Treatment mode 2: Digital language training is performed through the digital therapy software installed in the mobile terminal. The language training materials generated by the digital therapy software (i.e., digital prescriptions, IEP and tACS plans) will be played to the patient through the training device (mobile terminal). At the same time, the signal will also be processed by the signal processing unit in the mobile terminal to form a corresponding electrical stimulation signal, which will then be generated through the stimulation unit in the head-mounted device to stimulate the patient's temporal lobe and related cortex.
[0078] The combined rehabilitation assistance system combining transcranial electricity and digital therapy provided in the embodiment of the present application is based on the principle of neural entrainment. It evaluates various mental disorders including speech and language disorders through a digital therapy system, and then generates an individualized educational plan (IEP) and a transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) stimulation program. At the same time, it is combined with the artificial voice tACS stimulation program of the rehabilitation therapist to help patients recover more efficiently.
[0079] The combined rehabilitation assistance system assessment scale combining transcranial electrophysiology and digital therapy provided in the embodiment of the present application covers adult aphasia, autism, language delay, Alzheimer's disease, stroke and other mental disorders, including but not limited to the Boston Diagnostic Aphasia Examination Scale, the Western Aphasia Battery, the SS Method Assessment Scale, the Frenchay Dysarthria Checklist, the Gesell Developmental Scale Assessment, etc., and supports automatic conversion of paper assessment scales into digital assessment scales after scanning.
[0080] In addition, the rehabilitation resource library has built-in pitchless musical instruments (click to emit corresponding pitchless music), natural white noise, artificially synthesized white noise (i.e., the pre-stored audio materials in the embodiment of the present application), and a variety of music libraries suitable for music therapy and emotional intervention, which are suitable for emotional intervention, insomnia, auditory integration and other disorders.
