[0064] A1: Construct a curve analysis model, pre-process the patient's heart rate data, drug parameters and electrotherapy parameters in sequence. The specific process of constructing the curve analysis model is as follows:
[0065] Input the curve Sj to the curve analysis model. It is assumed that the curve Sj has N0 points. Any point of the curve Sj is marked as p, the coordinates of point p are marked as (Xp, Yp), and the point closest to point p and its coordinates are marked as q (Xq, Yq);
[0066] Get the slope Kp of point p through the coordinates of point p and point q: Then, the slopes corresponding to the N0 points of the curve Sj are obtained, and then the average slopes corresponding to the N0 points are averaged to obtain the average increase rate of the curve Sj.
[0067] By calculating the standard deviation of the ordinates of the N0 points of the curve Sj, the fluctuation coefficient σs of the curve Sj is obtained: in, is the overall value of the curve Sj. The average value of the vertical coordinates of the N0 points of the curve Sj is obtained to obtain the overall value of the curve Sj.
[0068] The ordinate of the end point of the curve Sj is marked as Ym, and the average increase rate of the curve Sj is Fluctuation coefficient σs, overall value And the end point ordinate Ym is combined to generate the curve two-dimensional characteristic coefficient XER and output:
[0069] Among them, the ordinate Ym of the end point of the curve Sj is related to the average growth rate Combined with the curve to obtain the state coefficient of the curve, when the vertical coordinate Ym of the end point is equal to the average growth rate The higher the value, the higher the coefficient of the curve growth state, indicating that the curve growth trend is more obvious; through the fluctuation coefficient σs of the curve Sj and the overall value Combined to obtain the historical state coefficient of the curve, when the fluctuation coefficient σs and the overall value The higher it is, the higher the historical state coefficient of the curve is, indicating that the overall level of the curve is high and the degree of fluctuation is high during the historical period, indicating that the historical state of the curve has developed more violently;
[0070] λ1 and λ2 are weight coefficients of the curve growth state coefficient and the curve history state coefficient, respectively, and both λ1 and λ2 are greater than 0. The weight coefficients are preset and obtained after a large amount of data experimental measurement. When the curve growth state coefficient and the curve history state coefficient are higher, the curve two-dimensional characteristic coefficient XER is higher, indicating that the two-dimensional characteristic evaluation of the curve Sj is more significant.
[0071] A101: Preprocessing patient heart rate data: By analyzing the heart rate data of patients with depression, the physical sign evaluation coefficient is obtained, so as to evaluate the physical sign status of patient i. The specific process is as follows:
[0072] Mark any depression patient as i, mark the heart rate value of patient i as Li, mark the heart rate collection time as Tl, and construct a curve change graph S0 of the heart rate value Li of patient i-heart rate collection time Tl;
[0073] Substitute the curve variation graph S0 into the curve analysis model, and output the curve two-dimensional characteristic coefficient of the curve S0 by analyzing the curve variation graph S0 and mark it as Xer0;
[0074] The standard interval of the two-dimensional characteristic coefficient Xer0 of the curve is preset to be [E1, E2]. When the two-dimensional characteristic coefficient Xer0 of the curve is in the standard interval [E1, E2], it is determined that the curve change of the heart rate value Li of the patient i is normal; conversely, when the two-dimensional characteristic coefficient Xer0 of the curve is higher or lower than the standard interval [E1, E2], it is determined that the curve change of the heart rate value Li of the patient i is abnormal.
[0075] Then, the physical sign evaluation coefficient Xtz is obtained through the curve two-dimensional characteristic coefficient Xer0 of curve S0 and its preset standard interval [E1, E2]: Xtz = (Xer0-E1)*(E2-Xer0)
[0076] Then, the threshold of the physical sign evaluation coefficient Xtz is set to 0, and the physical sign status of the patient i is evaluated by threshold comparison: when the physical sign evaluation coefficient Xtz is greater than 0, it means that the curve change of the heart rate value Li of the patient i is normal, and thus the physical sign status of the patient is normal; when the physical sign evaluation coefficient Xtz is less than 0, it means that the curve change of the heart rate value Li of the patient i is abnormal, and thus the physical sign status of the patient is abnormal;
[0077] A102: Pretreatment drug parameters:
[0078] A102-1: The drug intake coefficient is obtained by analyzing drug parameters to evaluate the drug intake effect. The specific process is as follows:
[0079] Applying the drug-only treatment mode to patient i, thereby acquiring the corresponding patient heart rate data and drug parameters under the current mode, so as to construct a curve change graph S1 under the drug treatment mode;
[0080] Classify and label the drug names, label any drug name as X, label the drug molecule concentration of drug name X in patient i as Cx, label the medication time as Tf, and simultaneously construct a curve change diagram S1 of drug molecule concentration Cx-medication time Tf;
[0081] Substitute the curve change graph S1 into the curve analysis model, and output the curve two-dimensional characteristic coefficient of the curve S1 by analyzing the curve change graph S1 and mark it as the drug intake coefficient Xyw;
[0082] Then set the evaluation interval of the drug intake coefficient Xyw, and evaluate the drug intake effect by comparing the intervals:
[0083] There are R evaluation intervals of the preset drug intake coefficient Xyw, and any evaluation interval of the drug intake coefficient Xyw is marked as Hr, wherein r is the serial number of the evaluation interval, 0<r≤R, and when the drug intake coefficient Xyw is in the evaluation interval Hr, the drug intake effect is determined to be level r; when the drug intake coefficient Xyw is higher, the level of the drug intake effect is higher, indicating that the drug intake dose of the evaluated patient is higher and the intake effect is better;
[0084] A102-2: By combining the physical sign evaluation coefficient of patient i in the drug treatment mode with the drug intake coefficient, an influence function F1 is constructed to analyze the influence relationship between the patient's heart rate data and the drug parameters, and a drug effect evaluation index is obtained to evaluate the drug effect efficacy of patient i. The specific process is as follows:
[0085] The physical sign evaluation coefficient and the drug intake coefficient of patient i in the drug treatment mode are marked as Xtz1 and Xyw1, respectively. Then, the physical sign evaluation coefficient Xtz1 of patient i in the drug treatment mode is combined with the drug intake coefficient Xyw1 to construct an influence function F1: Xtz1 = F1 (Xyw1). The drug intake coefficient Xyw1 is substituted into the influence function F1 to obtain the corresponding physical sign evaluation coefficient Xtz1.
[0086] Then obtain the drug effect evaluation index Zyw: Thus, the efficacy of the drug effect on patient i can be evaluated;
[0087] When the physical sign evaluation coefficient Xtz1 of patient i in the drug treatment mode is higher and the drug intake coefficient Xyw1 is lower, the drug effect evaluation index Zyw is higher, indicating that under the condition of lower drug intake dose level, the physical sign state of the patient after treatment is better, so the drug effect efficacy of patient i is higher, indicating that the drug treatment effect of patient i is better, conversely, when the drug effect evaluation index Zyw is lower, it means that the drug treatment effect of patient i is worse;
[0088] A103: Pre-treatment electrotherapy parameters:
[0089] A103-1: The electrotherapy stimulation coefficient is obtained by analyzing the electrotherapy parameters, thereby evaluating the electrotherapy stimulation efficacy. The specific process is as follows:
[0090] Applying only the nerve stimulation treatment mode to the patient i to collect and obtain the corresponding patient heart rate data and electrotherapy parameters under the current mode, so as to construct the curve change graph S2 and the curve change graph S3 under the nerve stimulation treatment mode;
[0091] The pulse intensity of the electrotherapy signal is marked as Ad, the pulse frequency of the electrotherapy signal is marked as Fd, and the electrotherapy time is marked as Td, and a curve variation diagram S2 of the pulse intensity Ad-electrotherapy time Td of the electrotherapy signal is constructed, and a curve variation diagram S3 of the pulse frequency Fd-electrotherapy time Td of the electrotherapy signal is constructed synchronously;
[0092] Substitute the curve change graph S2 and the curve change graph S3 into the curve analysis model in sequence, output the curve two-dimensional characteristic coefficient of the curve S2 by analyzing the curve change graph S2 and mark it as Xera, and output the curve two-dimensional characteristic coefficient of the curve S3 by analyzing the curve change graph S3 and mark it as Xerf;
[0093] By combining the two-dimensional characteristic coefficients Xera and Xerf of the curve, the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl is obtained: Xdl = ω1*Xera+ω2*Xerf;
[0094] Among them, ω1 and ω2 are weight coefficients of the two-dimensional characteristic coefficients Xera and Xerf of the curve, respectively, and ω1 and ω2 are both greater than 0; when the two-dimensional characteristic coefficients Xera and Xerf of the curve are higher, the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl is higher, indicating that the pulse intensity Ad and pulse frequency Fd of the electrotherapy signal are higher and more intense, and thus the comprehensive electrotherapy stimulation degree is higher;
[0095] Then set the evaluation interval of the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl, and evaluate the electrotherapy stimulation efficacy by comparing the intervals:
[0096] There are G evaluation intervals of the preset electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl, and any evaluation interval of the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl is marked as Hg, wherein g is the serial number of the evaluation interval, 0<g≤G, and when the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl is in the evaluation interval Hg, the electrotherapy stimulation efficacy is determined to be level g; when the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl is higher, the level of the electrotherapy stimulation efficacy is higher, indicating that the degree of electrotherapy stimulation effect on the patient is higher and the stimulation efficacy is higher;
[0097] A103-2: By combining the physical sign evaluation coefficient of patient i in the nerve stimulation treatment mode with the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient, an influence function F2 is constructed to analyze the influence relationship between the patient's heart rate data and the electrotherapy parameters, and the electrotherapy effect evaluation index is obtained to evaluate the electrotherapy effect of patient i. The specific process is as follows:
[0098] The physical sign evaluation coefficient and the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient of patient i in the nerve stimulation treatment mode are marked as Xtz2 and Xdl2, respectively. Then, the physical sign evaluation coefficient Xtz2 of patient i in the nerve stimulation treatment mode is combined with the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl2 to construct an influence function F2: Xtz2=F2(Xdl2). The electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl2 is substituted into the influence function F2 to obtain the corresponding physical sign evaluation coefficient Xtz2.
[0099] Then the electrotherapy effect evaluation index Zdl is obtained: Thus, the effect of electrotherapy on patient i can be evaluated;
[0100] When the physical sign evaluation coefficient Xtz2 of patient i in the nerve stimulation treatment mode is higher and the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl2 is lower, the electrotherapy effect evaluation index Zdl is higher, indicating that under the condition of lower electrotherapy stimulation effect, the physical sign state of the patient after treatment is better. Therefore, the higher the electrotherapy effect of patient i, the better the nerve electrical stimulation treatment effect of patient i. Conversely, when the electrotherapy effect evaluation index Zdl is lower, the electrotherapy effect of patient i is worse.
[0101] Sb-2, analyze the change relationship between the patient's heart rate data and the combined treatment data, so as to obtain the linkage influence relationship between the drug parameters and the electrotherapy parameters on the patient's heart rate data, and generate an electrotherapy design plan to send to the signal control unit. The specific process is as follows:
[0102] A2: Comprehensive analysis of synergistic treatment mechanisms:
[0103] A201: The physical sign evaluation coefficient of patient i in the neural stimulation and drug synergistic treatment mode is obtained by monitoring, and combined with the drug intake coefficient and the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient, and the change function F3 is constructed to analyze the change relationship between the patient's heart rate data and the combined treatment data. The specific process is as follows:
[0104] Applying the neural electrical stimulation and drug synergistic treatment mode to patient i, so as to monitor and obtain the physical sign evaluation coefficient of patient i in the neural electrical stimulation and drug synergistic treatment mode and mark it as Xtz3, and mark the drug intake coefficient and the electrical therapy stimulation coefficient in the synergistic treatment mode as Xyw3 and Xdl3 respectively;
[0105] By combining the physical sign evaluation coefficient Xtz3, the drug intake coefficient Xyw3 and the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl3 in the collaborative treatment mode, a change function F3 is constructed: Xtz3=F3(Xyw3,Xdl3), and the drug intake coefficient Xyw3 and the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl3 are substituted into the change function F3 to obtain the corresponding physical sign evaluation coefficient Xtz3;
[0106] A202: The linkage effect evaluation index is obtained by calculation, so as to obtain the linkage effect relationship between the drug parameters and the electrotherapy parameters on the patient's heart rate data, and generate the optimal synergistic treatment plan, where the optimal synergistic treatment plan includes the drug design plan and the electrotherapy design plan. The specific process is as follows:
[0107] Calculate and obtain the linkage effect evaluation index Zld:
[0108]
[0109] Among them, μ1 and μ2 are weight coefficients of the drug intake coefficient Xyw3 and the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl3, respectively, and both μ1 and μ2 are greater than 0; when the physical sign evaluation coefficient Xtz3 is higher, and the drug intake coefficient Xyw3 and the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl3 are lower, the linkage effect evaluation index Zld is higher, indicating that when the drug intake dose level and the electrotherapy stimulation effect are lower, the physical sign state of the patient after the synergistic treatment is better, therefore, the linkage effect of the synergistic treatment of the nerve electrical stimulation and the drug for the patient i is better;
[0110] Construct a curve variation diagram S4 of the linkage effect evaluation index Zld, obtain the maximum value of the linkage effect evaluation index Zld by descending sorting and mark it as Zldm, obtain the drug intake coefficient Xyw3m and the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl3m corresponding to the maximum value Zldm of the linkage effect evaluation index Zld, integrate the drug prescription and the neural electrical stimulation scheme corresponding to the drug intake coefficient Xyw3m and the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl3m into the optimal synergistic treatment scheme and output it;
[0111] Among them, the neural electrical stimulation scheme is the electrotherapy parameter design scheme corresponding to the electrotherapy stimulation coefficient Xdl3m, which is marked as the electrotherapy design scheme, and the drug prescription corresponding to the drug intake coefficient Xyw3m is marked as the drug design scheme. Therefore, the optimal synergistic treatment plan includes the drug design scheme and the electrotherapy design scheme. The drug design scheme is sent to the attending physician for auxiliary reference for subsequent treatment, and the electrotherapy design scheme is sent to the signal control unit, so as to perform parameter control on the electrotherapy signal;
[0112] It should be noted that the purpose of data monitoring and analysis of the drug treatment mode only and the neural stimulation treatment mode only is to obtain the corresponding physical sign assessment coefficient of the current depression patient i under the single treatment mode. The physical sign assessment coefficient obtained by the collaborative treatment mode should not be lower than the physical sign assessment coefficient under any single treatment mode, so as to obtain the optimal treatment plan under the collaborative treatment mode. If the physical sign assessment coefficient obtained by the collaborative treatment mode is lower than the physical sign assessment coefficient under any single treatment mode, the system will send an abnormal warning signal in time and display an abnormal text, so as to feedback the treatment opinions presented in the abnormal text to the attending physician for reference, so as to adaptively adjust the current patient's diagnosis and treatment methods;
[0113] Sc, the signal control unit receives the electrotherapy design scheme and controls the parameters of the electrotherapy signal:
[0114] The electrotherapy signal refers to a signal that outputs the power supply energy in the form of electric pulses, and the parameter control refers to the control of the electrotherapy parameters, such as the parameter control of the pulse intensity and pulse frequency of the electrotherapy signal, marking the electrotherapy signal after the parameter control as an electrotherapy optimization signal, and then outputting the electrotherapy optimization signal to the nerve stimulation unit;
