Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] Heat stroke is the most severe case of heat-related illness, i.e., severe heat stroke, which is a serious and fatal disease with body temperature rapidly rising to generally more than 40℃, accompanied by skin burning, consciousness disorder (e.g., delirium, convulsions, coma) and multiple organ dysfunction, and is the most severe type of heat stroke with extremely high mortality. Once heat stroke symptoms occur, fluid replacement and physical cooling need to be performed immediately, and transportation to a hospital is required, and cooling needs to be continued during transportation and treatment. One of the main reasons for the high mortality rate of heat stroke is that heat stroke is not treated in time and accurately. In the prior art, the incidence of heat stroke is less than one in a thousand, so the research and teaching training for heat stroke are not widely promoted. Some enterprises that often need to carry out outdoor activities generally use the video watching method to carry out emergency treatment teaching training for heat stroke. However, the video watching method obviously cannot fully and accurately understand the treatment process, so how to obtain a simulation dummy for simulating treatment of heat stroke to enable people to better study the temperature change trend of the human body after heat stroke and master the knowledge of emergency treatment of heat stroke so as to reduce the mortality rate of heat stroke is a technical problem that needs to be solved in the field.

[0037] The embodiment of the present application provides a simulation dummy for simulating treatment of heat stroke, as shown in Figure 1 The simulation dummy is shaped according to the structure of human body, which specifically includes a skeletal system, a blood pumping system, an internal organ system, a skin system, a fluid temperature control pulsatile pumping system and a temperature sensing detection system.

[0038] The skeleton system is obtained by 3D printing of PVC resin material, the thermal conductivity of the PVC resin material is 0.33 W / (m*k), in the actual application process, the preparation material of the skeleton system is not limited to the above-mentioned PVC resin material, the purpose of using the material is that the thermal conductivity of the material is very similar to the actual thermal conductivity of human bone, and the human body heat dissipation process can be more accurately simulated in use, therefore, those skilled in the art can use other 3D printing materials with the same or similar thermal conductivity in the prior art to prepare the skeleton system according to the above purpose. The skeleton system specifically includes a skull area 110, a chest cavity area 120 and an abdominal cavity area 130; the skull area 110 is internally provided with a hollow brain structure 111, the brain structure 111 is obtained by 3D printing of PVC resin material, the thermal conductivity of the PVC resin material is 0.33 W / (m*k), in the actual application process, the preparation material of the brain structure 111 is not limited to the above-mentioned PVC resin material, the purpose of using the material is that the thermal conductivity of the material is very similar to the actual thermal conductivity of human brain, and the human body heat dissipation process can be more accurately simulated in use, therefore, those skilled in the art can use other 3D printing materials with the same or similar thermal conductivity in the prior art to prepare the brain structure 111 according to the above purpose. The brain structure 111 is filled with temperature control fluid; the temperature control fluid is water, which is used to simulate human blood, and other flowing liquids can also be used as temperature control fluid according to actual needs in the actual application process.

[0039] As shown in Figure 2 The blood pumping system includes a hollow heart structure 210 and a blood vessel structure, the heart structure 210 is arranged in the chest cavity area 120, the heart structure 210 is filled with temperature control fluid, and the heart structure 210 is provided with a first atrium and a second atrium; the blood vessel structure includes a aorta structure 221 and a arteriovenous structure 222, the first atrium is connected with the brain structure 111 through the aorta structure 221, and the second atrium is connected with the brain structure 111 through the arteriovenous structure 222. So that the temperature control fluid can circulate between the heart structure 210 and the brain structure 111, thereby achieving the effect of simulating blood circulation.

[0040] The internal organ system is made of PVC resin material by 3D printing, and includes a plurality of hollow internal organ structures 310, each of which is a lung structure, a liver structure, a pancreas structure, a spleen structure, and a kidney structure. The above-mentioned internal organ structures 310 are installed according to the actual position of the internal organ structure of the human body, specifically, the lung structure is arranged in the thoracic cavity area 120 and located outside the heart structure 210, and the liver structure, pancreas structure, spleen structure, and kidney structure are arranged in the abdominal cavity area 130. The internal organ structures are filled with temperature control fluid, and the internal organ structures are connected to the first atrium through the aorta structure 221 and the second atrium through the arteriovenous structure 222, so that the temperature control fluid can circulate between the heart structure 210 and the internal organ structure, thereby achieving the effect of simulating blood circulation.

[0041] The skin system is wrapped outside the skeleton system. In actual application, in order to facilitate the fixation of the internal organ system, silica gel is filled between the skin system and the skeleton system. The silica gel is poured into a mold to form the required shape and then filled between the skin system and the skeleton system. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in the drawings, the skin system includes a muscle layer 410, a heat conduction layer 420, and an epidermis layer successively attached together away from the skeleton system. The muscle layer 410 is made of 3D printing, and the material used is PVC resin material with a thermal conductivity coefficient of 0.45 W / (m*k), which is close to the thermal conductivity coefficient of human muscle and can simulate the actual heat dissipation of human muscle in application. The heat conduction layer 420 is made of heat-conducting silica gel, and the thermal conductivity coefficient of the heat-conducting silica gel is 2 W / (m*k). The heat conduction layer 420 and the muscle layer 410 are also uniformly provided with a fine tube 440, which is connected to the first atrium through the aorta structure 221 and to the second atrium through the arteriovenous structure 222, so that the temperature control fluid can circulate between the heart structure 210 and the fine tube 440, thereby achieving the effect of simulating blood circulation. The epidermis layer includes a water barrier layer 431 and a heat dissipation layer 432, the water barrier layer 431 is attached to the heat conduction layer 420, and the heat dissipation layer 432 is attached to the water barrier layer 431. The water barrier layer 431 is made of water-absorbing resin, and the heat dissipation layer 432 is made of silica gel, and the heat dissipation layer 432 is uniformly distributed with capillary holes. In use, water is first injected into the water barrier layer 431 to make the water-absorbing resin (i.e. water barrier layer 431) fully absorb water, thereby simulating human water. In order to facilitate the injection of water into the water barrier layer 431, the heat dissipation layer 432 is provided with a water injection port for injecting water into the water barrier layer 431.

[0042] The fluid temperature control pulsating pumping system comprises a pulsating pump 510 and a temperature control device 520, both of which are arranged outside the skin system, and the pulsating pump 510 is a pulsating pump with a pulsating frequency of 60-180 bpm. When installed, the pulsating pump 510 and the temperature control device 520 are connected in series and connected to the first atrium and the second atrium of the heart structure 210 through the connecting pipe, so that the temperature control fluid can realize circulating flow under the action of the pulsating pump 510, and the temperature control device 520 arranged can be used to control the temperature of the temperature control fluid during use, so as to achieve the effect of simulating heat stroke symptoms.

[0043] The temperature sensing detection system comprises a controller and a plurality of embedded fiber grating temperature sensors 610 connected to the controller, and a plurality of embedded fiber grating temperature sensors 610 are arranged in the brain structure 111, the heart structure 210, the aorta structure 221 of the blood vessel structure, the arteriovenous structure 222, the internal organ structure 310 and the heat dissipation layer 432 of the skin system. For the skin system, the embedded fiber grating temperature sensor 610 can be arranged at the corresponding positions of the armpit, limbs, face and the like of the human body for temperature detection, and those skilled in the art can arrange according to actual needs. The main reason why the brain structure 111, the heart structure 210, the blood vessel structure and the internal organ structure 310 and the like are monitored for temperature is that the body surface temperature (i.e. the temperature of the skin system) of the human body cannot well reflect the core body temperature, and the core body temperature can better reflect the actual body temperature of the human body. In the practice process, the heat stroke cannot be timely and accurately treated because the rescuers can only judge the cooling condition by the body surface temperature during the treatment and cooling process, and cannot obtain the core body temperature of the human body, so that the heat stroke cannot be timely and accurately treated. The change process of the core body temperature of the human body can be more accurately judged by detecting the temperature of the internal structure of the simulation dummy, so that the treatment research and treatment teaching training of the heat stroke are more intuitive, and people can more accurately master the emergency treatment knowledge of the heat stroke.

[0044] The use method of the simulation dummy for simulating the treatment of heat stroke disclosed in the above embodiment of the application is briefly described as follows:

[0045] It should be noted that the controller of the temperature sensing detection system and the temperature control device 520 need to be connected to an external terminal during use for real-time monitoring of each embedded fiber grating temperature sensor 610 and online control of the temperature control device 520.

[0046] In use, firstly, the temperature control fluid in circulation is heated by the temperature control device 520, and the heated fluid is circulated to the brain structure, the internal organ system and the skin system by the blood pumping system (i.e. the heart structure and the blood vessel structure) through the pulsatile pump 510, and finally the surface temperature of the simulation dummy reaches 40℃ (i.e. the embedded fiber Bragg grating temperature sensor 610 in the skin system reaches 40℃), at this time, it is determined that the simulation dummy is in the heat stroke condition, and the temperature control device is kept in the constant output power state to simulate the continuous heat production of the human body. Then, the simulation dummy is simulated for treatment and the temperature changes of each region of the human body are observed (the pulsatile pump is in working state during the treatment process to simulate the heartbeat of the human body), so that it can be more intuitive to understand which treatment method can quickly and effectively treat heat stroke, so that people can more accurately master the knowledge of emergency treatment of heat stroke.

[0047] The simulation dummy for simulating the treatment of heat stroke provided by the embodiments of the present application is described in detail above, and the principles and implementation manners of the present application are described by applying specific examples. The above embodiment description is only used to help understand the technical solutions of the present application and the core idea thereof; those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions recorded in the above embodiments can be modified, or some technical features can be replaced by equivalents; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
