Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to an inductive programmed electrical guidance method and device. Background Art

[0002] Electrical guidance for treating epilepsy refers to guiding the high voltage (1000 - 3000 uV) generated by local epileptic discharges in the brain to an extracranial area with a lower voltage (<100 uV) through a guiding electrode made of a high-conductivity material and a circuit control system, reducing the high voltage of epileptic discharges, avoiding the spread of epileptic discharges, and thus preventing and alleviating the occurrence of epileptic clinical symptoms.

[0003] Traditional electrical guidance methods and devices have the function of exporting neuroelectrophysiological signals out of the body, facilitating the study of the relationship between the intensity of current conduction and the treatment effect, and preventing and alleviating the occurrence of epileptic clinical symptoms. There are several prominent problems: First, the traditional method of regulating the guiding current by adjusting the resistance of the guiding electrode has an unsatisfactory actual effect. Second, the traditional electrical guidance by manual intervention does not form a closed-loop control method that relies on sensors for automatic electrical guidance and intelligent recognition, and is inconvenient, untimely, and has an unsatisfactory control effect. Third, the electrophysiological signals rely on manual collection, with poor real-time data acquisition, small data volume, and cumbersome recording and analysis, which is not conducive to the continuous in-depth development of epilepsy treatment research. Fourth, the traditional use of scalp surface bioelectricity as the low electrical potential causes disorders in epilepsy monitoring and intervention due to the instability of scalp surface bioelectricity during epileptic seizures.

[0004] There is an urgent need to develop an inductive and programmed electrical guidance method and device. Summary of the Invention
