Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of medical instruments, and in particular, relates to a device for quickly adjusting anesthesia concentration and a method for adjusting the same. Background Art

[0002] Precise control of anesthetic gas concentration is one of the key technologies in modern surgical anesthesia. In clinical anesthesia practice, the accuracy of anesthetic gas concentration is directly related to patient safety and surgical effect. At present, the commonly used anesthesia delivery systems in clinical practice mainly include vaporizer control systems, electronic flow control systems, and computer-aided control systems. The traditional vaporizer control system adopts the mechanical partial pressure principle to control the anesthetic gas concentration by adjusting the bypass airflow ratio, but its response speed is slow, the accuracy is low, and it is easily affected by factors such as ambient temperature and pressure. Although the electronic flow control system has improved in response speed and control accuracy, it is still difficult to achieve rapid and accurate adjustment of anesthetic gas concentration in complex surgical environments due to factors such as changes in patient breathing patterns and interference with surgical operations.

[0003] In recent years, with the continuous development of surgical technology, new surgical methods such as minimally invasive surgery and robot-assisted surgery have put forward higher requirements for anesthesia depth control. Especially in fast-track anesthesia and day surgery, it is necessary to ensure the quality of the operation while ensuring the rapid awakening and recovery of patients. Traditional anesthesia systems show obvious shortcomings in such scenarios: First, the existing technology is difficult to accurately predict and compensate for the concentration attenuation of anesthetic gases during the delivery process, resulting in a significant deviation between the actual anesthetic gas concentration delivered to the patient's airway and the set value; secondly, when the anesthesia depth needs to be adjusted quickly, the adjustment response of the existing system often lags behind clinical needs, increasing the risk of intraoperative awareness; in addition, the existing technology lacks the ability to dynamically predict and actively adjust the changes in anesthetic gas concentration, and it is difficult to adapt to various emergencies during surgery.

[0004] It is particularly noteworthy that during delicate surgical operations, surgeons need patients to maintain a stable depth of anesthesia, but existing technologies have large fluctuations in maintaining stable anesthesia depth, which not only affects the accuracy of surgical operations, but may also cause stress reactions in patients. Clinical research data show that the concentration control error of traditional anesthesia systems is usually above ±15%, and the adjustment time often exceeds 90 seconds, which is far from the requirements of modern precision medicine. Summary of the invention

[0073] When the target concentration was changed rapidly during the induction period, the system showed good dynamic response characteristics. From the data, it can be seen that the system increased the sevoflurane concentration from 0% to 1.85% in 3 minutes, 1.92% in 6 minutes, and 1.98% in 9 minutes, which was basically close to the target value. During the entire adjustment process, the maximum deviation did not exceed 0.15%, and there was no obvious oscillation.

[0074] The data of the maintenance period show that the system has extremely high stability. In a typical data segment of 30 minutes, the maximum value of the concentration deviation is 0.02%, and the standard deviation is only 0.008%. The difference between the first flow value and the second flow value is always kept within 0.04 liters per minute, indicating that the airtightness of the system is good.

[0078] Pressure compensation record: The pressure fluctuation range detected by the system is 101.3 to 101.5 kPa, and the actual variation range of the pressure correction coefficient γ is 0.998 to 1.002.

[0079] Flow ratio adjustment record: The flow ratio (Q1 / Q2) in the induction period ranged from 1.007 to 1.012. The stable value of the flow ratio in the maintenance period was about 1.005.

[0084] Specifically, the principle of the present invention is: the technical principle of the present invention is based on the organic combination of fluid dynamics, sensor technology and intelligent control theory. Its core is to achieve rapid and accurate adjustment of anesthetic gas concentration through precise gas concentration detection, intelligent mixing adjustment and accurate deviation compensation. The specific principle is explained as follows:

[0085] First, in terms of gas concentration detection, the present invention adopts a multi-dimensional detection principle. The infrared spectrum sensor determines the gas concentration by measuring the intensity of the transmitted light based on the selective absorption characteristics of different gas molecules for infrared light of a specific wavelength; the electrochemical sensor uses the current signal generated by the redox reaction between the gas molecules and the electrodes to measure the concentration; the pressure sensor is used to monitor the system pressure in real time and provide the necessary parameters for concentration compensation. The coordinated work of multiple sensors ensures the accuracy and reliability of concentration detection.

[0086] Secondly, the mixing and regulating device of the present invention adopts a fluid mechanics optimization design. The injection ports uniformly distributed around the cylindrical mixing chamber are based on the Venturi effect principle, which generates negative pressure through high-speed airflow to promote the uniform introduction of dilution gas. The design of the spiral spoiler is based on the turbulent mixing theory, which enhances the gas mixing effect by generating controlled vortices. This design not only improves the mixing uniformity, but also shortens the adjustment response time.

[0087] The key technical breakthrough lies in the deviation calculation equation proposed in the present invention: ΔC = α(Q1 / Q2)C1+β(V / Q2)dC1 / dt+γ(P / P0)C1. This equation comprehensively considers factors such as flow ratio (Q1 / Q2), dynamic changes in concentration (dC1 / dt) and pressure influence (P / P0). Among them, the value range of the α, β, and γ correction coefficients has been determined through a large number of experimental optimizations and can meet the needs of different clinical scenarios. The physical meaning of this equation is: the first term represents the concentration deviation caused by flow changes, the second term reflects the impact of dynamic changes in concentration, and the third term compensates for the error caused by pressure changes.

[0088] At the implementation level, the present invention adopts a high-performance ARM Cortex-M4 microcontroller to ensure the rapid execution of the control algorithm through real-time data acquisition and processing. The sampling frequency of 100Hz means that the system can complete a state update every 10 milliseconds to meet the real-time control requirements. The use of RS485 bus ensures the reliability and anti-interference ability of data transmission.

[0089] In addition, the present invention also embodies profound engineering principles in material selection and structural design. For example, the U-shaped measuring tube is made of platinum-rhodium alloy material, which has excellent thermal conductivity and chemical stability, ensuring the accuracy of flow measurement; the porous membrane separation unit is made of polysulfone material, whose microporous structure can achieve selective separation of gases and improve system efficiency.

[0090] The above description is only a specific implementation mode of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
