[0022] In order to make the technical solution of the present invention clearer, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0023] Example 1 like Figure 1- As shown in Figure 4, according to one aspect of the present invention, a system for monitoring physiological parameters during sleep is provided, including a data monitoring unit, a control unit, a data compensation module, a sleep monitoring module and a monitoring wake-up unit; the data monitoring unit is used to monitor the skin conductivity, muscle activity performance, blood oxygen content, and EEG activity, ECG activity and blood pressure activity of the monitored person in real time, and feed back the monitored data to the monitoring wake-up unit and the control unit; the control unit is used to control the range of data compensation and the start and stop of the monitoring wake-up unit; the sleep monitoring module is used to receive feedback data from the data monitoring unit and the data compensation module, and analyze whether the monitored person is in a non-rapid eye movement sleep state and whether the monitored person is in a state of muscle relaxation and stable body movement based on the feedback data, so as to determine whether the monitored person is in an optimal wake-up time; the monitoring wake-up unit specifically includes a time setting module, a wake-up judgment module and an alarm module, wherein the monitoring wake-up unit is used to determine whether to wake up the monitored person according to the set time based on the analysis of the sleep monitoring module. By monitoring the physiological data of the monitored person, and waking up after each monitoring not entirely by the set alarm, but by waking up when the set alarm time interval coincides with the monitored person's optimal wake-up time, this wake-up design can ensure the monitored person's brain stability, which is conducive to long-term testing of the monitored person.

[0024] In this embodiment, the data monitoring unit specifically includes a body monitoring module and a heart-brain monitoring module; the body monitoring module monitors the activity of the autonomic nervous system during sleep through skin conductivity, evaluates the degree of muscle tension and whether muscle activity occurs during sleep through muscle activity monitoring, and detects the oxygen level in the blood through blood oxygen content; the heart-brain monitoring module monitors whether the person is in a non-rapid eye movement sleep state through EEG activity, monitors the changes in heart rate during non-rapid eye movement sleep through EEG activity, and monitors the blood pressure fluctuations during sleep during non-rapid eye movement sleep through blood pressure activity. Whether the monitored person is currently in the best wake-up time is determined by the probability coefficient of the monitored person being in a non-rapid eye movement sleep state and the probability coefficient of the monitored person being in a state of muscle relaxation and stable body movement. This wake-up design can reduce brain stimulation to the monitored person.

[0025] Example 2 like Figure 3 As shown in c and d, the data compensation module optimizes the instantaneous data collected by the sleep monitoring module according to the compensation data of the set monitoring range size and the weight of each component data in the range data, so:

[0026] In the formula, It indicates the data finally received by the sleep monitoring module after compensation by the data compensation module. represents the data measured for the i-th time within the range of data compensation, represents the weight of the i-th measurement data within the range of data compensation, represents the data sample range used as compensation, It represents the sum of data within the data sample range, and has:

[0028] Example 3 The time setting module is used to receive instructions from the control unit to set the wake-up time for the monitored person; the wake-up judgment module is used to judge whether the best wake-up time is within 40 minutes before the set time. If the best wake-up time is within 40 minutes before the set time, the monitored person is woken up; if the best wake-up time is not within 40 minutes before the set time, the person is woken up according to the set time; the alarm module is used to make a sound to wake up the monitored person.

[0029] The sleep monitoring module determines the probability coefficient of the monitored person being in non-rapid eye movement sleep based on the proportion of brain waves with a frequency of 0.5-4 Hz per unit time, the size of the heart rate after stabilization, and the drop in blood pressure. Then:

[0030] In the formula, Indicates the probability coefficient that the monitored person is in non-rapid eye movement sleep state, It indicates the proportion of brain waves with a frequency of 0.5-4 Hz per unit time. Indicates the size of the heart rate after it becomes stable. Indicates the degree of decrease in blood pressure.

[0031] Among them, the physiological data of the monitored person X is monitored. The proportion of brain waves with a frequency of 0.5-4 Hz in a unit time is taken (Percentage = duration of brain wave frequency between 0.5-4 Hz within 180 seconds ÷ 180 seconds).

[0032] After the heart rate stabilizes, (times / minute). The drop in blood pressure is (Decline = the drop in blood pressure at this moment ÷ the drop in blood pressure before sleep). Then we have:

[0033] From the above calculation, we can know that after the monitored person X has his physiological data monitored, the probability coefficient of the monitored person being in the non-rapid eye movement sleep state is , and compare multiple groups of data, there are: From the above calculation, we can know that as the monitored person is in non-rapid eye movement sleep state, the probability coefficient The value is getting bigger and bigger, and the number of eye movements of the monitored persons is getting less and less.

[0034] The sleep monitoring module determines the probability coefficient of the monitored person being in a state of muscle relaxation and stable body movement based on the resistance of the unit skin conduction, the proportion of 0.7-3.7 Hz electromyography in muscle activity monitoring per unit time, and the blood oxygen saturation per unit time. Then, we have:

Indicates the resistance of the unit skin after conduction. It represents the proportion of 0.7-3.7 Hz electromyogram in muscle activity monitoring per unit time. Indicates the blood oxygen saturation per unit time.

[0036] The physiological data of the monitored person X is monitored. The resistance of the unit skin after conduction is (Kilohms, monitoring the skin of the monitored person at an interval of 10 cm).

[0038] From the above calculation, we can know that after the monitored person X has his physiological data monitored, the probability coefficient of the monitored person being in a state of muscle relaxation and stable body movement is , and compare multiple groups of data, there are: From the above table data, we can know that as the monitored person is in a state of muscle relaxation and stable body movement, the probability coefficient The value is getting bigger and bigger, and the number of limb activities and muscle movements of the monitored persons is getting less and less.

[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, the sleep monitoring module determines the probability coefficient of the monitored person being in the optimal wake-up time based on the probability coefficient of the monitored person being in the non-rapid eye movement sleep state and the probability coefficient of the monitored person being in the muscle relaxation and body movement stable state, then:

[0040] In the formula, Indicates the probability coefficient that the monitored person is currently at the best wake-up time, Indicates the probability coefficient that the monitored person is in non-rapid eye movement sleep state, It indicates the probability coefficient that the monitored person is in a state of muscle relaxation and stable body movement.

[0041] Among them, the physiological data of the monitored person X is monitored. The probability coefficient of the monitored person being in the non-rapid eye movement sleep state is , the probability coefficient of the monitored person being in a state of muscle relaxation and stable body movement is . Then we have:

[0042] From the above calculation, we can know that the probability coefficient of the monitored person being in the best wake-up time is , then the monitored person is currently at the best wake-up time, and the monitored person can be awakened after the monitoring and awakening unit confirms that the person is within the wake-up time. Comparing multiple sets of data can have: From the above calculation, we can know that when the sample data tends to infinity, the probability coefficient D will have a dividing line, which can determine whether to wake up the monitored person. The dividing line is 76%, so when When , it means that the monitored person is currently in the best wake-up time. After the monitoring and wake-up unit confirms that it is within the wake-up time, the monitored person can be woken up; when When , it means that the current monitored person is not in the best wake-up time, and the monitored person cannot be woken up even if the monitoring and wake-up unit confirms that it is in the wake-up time.

[0043] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the present invention.

Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present invention shall be subject to the attached claims.
