Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of medical device disinfection, and in particular, relates to a method and equipment for disinfecting a B-ultrasound probe. Background Art B-ultrasound probe detection is to generate ultrasonic pulses that pass through the skin and tissues on the surface of the human body when in contact with the human body, then receive part of the reflected sound waves, and then generate an image of the reflected waves. The image formed is displayed on the screen of the B-ultrasound machine to obtain the required B-ultrasound image. Because the B-ultrasound probe is in contact with the human body and needs to be used continuously, in order to avoid cross infection, the B-ultrasound probe needs to be disinfected after each use. The disinfection of the B-ultrasound probe can disinfect bacteria and viruses on the surface of the B-ultrasound probe through ultraviolet irradiation, reduce the risk of infection, and thus ensure the health and safety of medical staff and patients.
[0002] In the related art, in the disinfection of B-ultrasound probes by ultraviolet irradiation, the disinfection of B-ultrasound probes relies on a fixed process (for example, the B-ultrasound probe is subjected to continuous illumination at an ultraviolet light intensity of 100μW / cm² for 5 minutes to perform a disinfection operation). When the B-ultrasound probe is used to examine the superficial organs of the human body, the B-ultrasound probe is in contact with the human body for a short time, so the contamination degree of the B-ultrasound probe is low. If the B-ultrasound probe is disinfected using a fixed disinfection process, the ultraviolet irradiation time will be longer, resulting in reduced disinfection efficiency. When the B-ultrasound probe is used to perform ultrasonic detection in the human cavity, the B-ultrasound probe is in contact with the human body for a long time, so the contamination degree of the B-ultrasound probe is increased. If a fixed disinfection process is used, the ultraviolet light dose of the fixed disinfection process may be insufficient to kill the bacteria and viruses on the surface of the B-ultrasound probe, thereby reducing the disinfection effect of the B-ultrasound probe, which may ultimately endanger the lives of medical staff and patients. Summary of the invention

[0027] In the related art, in the disinfection of B-ultrasound probes by ultraviolet irradiation, the disinfection of B-ultrasound probes relies on a fixed process (for example, the B-ultrasound probe is subjected to continuous illumination at an ultraviolet light intensity of 100μW / cm² for 5 minutes to perform a disinfection operation). When the B-ultrasound probe is used to examine the superficial organs of the human body, the B-ultrasound probe is in contact with the human body for a short time, so the contamination degree of the B-ultrasound probe is low. If the B-ultrasound probe is disinfected using a fixed disinfection process, the ultraviolet irradiation time will be longer, resulting in reduced disinfection efficiency. When the B-ultrasound probe is used to perform ultrasonic detection in the human cavity, the B-ultrasound probe is in contact with the human body for a long time, so the contamination degree of the B-ultrasound probe is increased. If a fixed disinfection process is used, the ultraviolet light dose of the fixed disinfection process may be insufficient to kill the bacteria and viruses on the surface of the B-ultrasound probe, thereby reducing the disinfection effect of the B-ultrasound probe, which may ultimately endanger the lives of medical staff and patients.
[0028] In order to solve the above problems, the embodiment of the present application provides a method and device for disinfecting a B-ultrasound probe. In the method, first, detection information for reflecting the B-ultrasound image video generated by the B-ultrasound probe when detecting the human body is obtained, and then temperature information including acquisition temperature information for reflecting the maximum temperature reached by each contact area of the B-ultrasound probe when the B-ultrasound probe detects the human body and ambient temperature information for reflecting the ambient temperature of the B-ultrasound probe when detecting the human body is obtained in real time, and then the detection information is analyzed to obtain the position and time when the B-ultrasound probe contacts the human body, and then the contact information and temperature information are analyzed to obtain a disinfection indication diagram for reflecting the information of disinfecting the B-ultrasound probe after contacting the human body, and finally the control device controls the disinfection device to perform a disinfection operation on the B-ultrasound probe based on the disinfection indication diagram. The method can effectively obtain detection information by analyzing the B-ultrasound image video generated by the B-ultrasound probe when detecting the human body, and combine it with different temperature information to obtain an instruction diagram for performing different degrees of disinfection on different contact areas on the B-ultrasound probe, so as to specifically disinfect each area of the B-ultrasound probe, thereby improving the disinfection efficiency and disinfection effect of the B-ultrasound probe, and ultimately reducing the risk of infection for medical staff and patients.
[0029] The B-ultrasound probe disinfection method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to the B-ultrasound probe disinfection equipment. In this case, the B-ultrasound probe disinfection equipment is the executor of the B-ultrasound probe disinfection method provided in the embodiment of the present application. The embodiment of the present application does not impose any restrictions on the specific type of the B-ultrasound probe disinfection equipment.
[0030] The B-ultrasound probe disinfection device includes a disinfection device and a control device. The disinfection device is electrically connected to the control device. The disinfection device includes a detection mechanism and a disinfection mechanism. The detection mechanism is used to collect the temperature of the B-ultrasound probe. The detection mechanism is set up inside the probe of the B-ultrasound probe. The detection mechanism is wirelessly connected to the control device. For example, the wireless connection includes a wireless LAN connection, a Bluetooth connection or a radio frequency identification, etc. For example, the detection mechanism can be a temperature sensor, an electronic thermometer or an infrared thermometer, etc. The disinfection mechanism is used to disinfect the B-ultrasound probe by ultraviolet irradiation. For example, the disinfection mechanism can be a combination of a transmission mechanism and an ultraviolet lamp or an ultraviolet disinfection cabinet, etc. When the disinfection mechanism is a combination of a transmission mechanism and an ultraviolet lamp, the transmission mechanism can be a synchronous belt drive or an electric drive, etc., and the ultraviolet lamp is controlled by the transmission mechanism to approach the B-ultrasound probe for disinfection. When the disinfection mechanism is an ultraviolet disinfection cabinet, the B-ultrasound probe is disinfected by placing the B-ultrasound probe in an ultraviolet disinfection cabinet provided with a groove for placing the B-ultrasound probe. The disinfection mechanism is electrically connected to the control device. The control device is used to supervise and control the disinfection process of the B-ultrasound probe.
[0031] For example, the control device can be a single-chip microcomputer, a microcontroller, an application-specific integrated circuit, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, an ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), a netbook, a smart large screen, a smart TV, a handheld device with wireless communication function, a desktop computer, a handheld device with wireless communication function, a computer, a laptop computer, a handheld computing device, etc.
[0032] In order to better understand the B-ultrasound probe disinfection method provided in the embodiment of the present application, the specific implementation process of the B-ultrasound probe disinfection method provided in the embodiment of the present application is exemplarily introduced below.
[0033] Figure 1 and Figure 2 A schematic flow chart of the method for disinfecting a B-ultrasound probe provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown. Figure 1 and Figure 2 , B-ultrasound probe disinfection methods include: S100, acquiring detection information; wherein the detection information is used to reflect the B-ultrasound image generated by the B-ultrasound probe when detecting the human body.
[0034] It can be understood that when medical staff use a B-ultrasound probe to perform contact examinations on the human body, the ultrasonic pulses emitted by the ultrasonic transmitter in the B-ultrasound probe pass through the skin and tissues on the surface of the human body. Since different tissues in the human body have different absorption and reflection characteristics of sound waves, when the sound waves encounter tissue interfaces with different densities, part of the sound waves will be reflected back, and part of the reflected sound waves will be received by the ultrasonic receiver in the B-ultrasound probe, and an image of the reflected waves will be generated, and the generated image will be displayed on the screen of the B-ultrasound machine, that is, the B-ultrasound image will be displayed on the screen of the B-ultrasound machine as a dynamic image.
[0035] For example, the detection information can be obtained by directly exporting the video file to a storage device (such as a hard disk or a flash memory) inside the B-ultrasound machine, or by manually inputting the detection information.
[0036] S200, acquiring temperature information in real time; wherein the temperature information includes collected temperature information and ambient temperature information, the collected temperature information is used to reflect the maximum temperature reached in each contact area of the B-ultrasound probe when the B-ultrasound probe is detecting the human body, and the ambient temperature information is used to reflect the ambient temperature of the B-ultrasound probe when the B-ultrasound probe is detecting the human body.
[0037] Exemplarily, the process of acquiring the collected temperature information may be to directly acquire the temperature of the surface of the B-ultrasound probe by a temperature sensor set up inside the B-ultrasound probe, and when the B-ultrasound probe completes a detection of the human body, the maximum temperature in the contact area on the B-ultrasound probe is confirmed as the collected temperature information. The surface of the B-ultrasound probe may also be measured by an infrared thermometer to obtain the surface temperature of the B-ultrasound probe, and then the maximum temperature reached in each area on the surface of the B-ultrasound probe is confirmed as the collected temperature information. The process of acquiring the ambient temperature information may be to manually input the ambient temperature information. The indoor environment may also be detected by an electronic thermometer to obtain the ambient temperature information.
[0038] S300, analyzing the detection information to obtain contact information; wherein the contact information includes multiple contact areas and multiple contact times, the contact area is used to reflect the area on the B-ultrasound probe that contacts the human body when the B-ultrasound probe contacts the human body, and the contact time is used to reflect the contact time corresponding to each contact area.
[0039] It can be understood that multiple contact areas correspond to multiple contact times. When medical staff use the B-ultrasound probe to detect the human body, they need to constantly move the B-ultrasound probe until the B-ultrasound probe can completely and clearly obtain the part of the patient that needs to be detected. During the detection process, because the medical staff constantly moves the B-ultrasound probe, the time at each position in the area where the B-ultrasound probe has contacted the human body is different.
[0040] Exemplarily, the detection information can be processed to obtain images of different time nodes in the detection information, and then the images of different time nodes in the detection information can be statistically post-processed to obtain multiple times when the ultrasound probe contacts the human body in the images of different time nodes, and then the areas in the ultrasound probe that have contacted the human body can be divided according to the same time among the multiple times when the ultrasound probe contacts the human body, so as to obtain different areas on the ultrasound probe when contacting the human body reflected by the images of different time nodes in the detection information, and finally obtain contact information.
[0041] It is also possible to use 3D simulation software (for example, 3D simulation software such as COMSOL Multiphysics or ANSYS Workbench) to simulate the condition of the B-ultrasound probe in contact with the human body based on the B-ultrasound image, and then process the time condition in the contact condition to obtain the different times when the B-ultrasound probe is in contact with the human body, and then divide the regional conditions in the contact condition into regions according to the time condition, so as to obtain different regions corresponding to different times when the B-ultrasound probe is in contact with the human body, and finally obtain contact information.
[0042] In a possible implementation, in step S300, analyzing the detection information to obtain contact information includes: S310, performing frame processing on the B-ultrasound image of the detection information to obtain a plurality of image frames; wherein the image frames are used to reflect the pictures at different time nodes in the B-ultrasound image.
[0043] It can be understood that the frame processing step can be to first obtain the frame rate of the B-ultrasound image, then use the frame rate of the B-ultrasound image as the set extraction frame rate, and then frame the B-ultrasound image by setting the extraction frame rate, and finally obtain multiple image frames. The frame rate refers to the number of image frames displayed in one second. The set extraction frame refers to the number of frames that need to be extracted per second. The frame rate can be manually input manually. The frame rate can also be directly obtained through the operation interface of the B-ultrasound machine.
[0044] S320, analyzing the multiple image frames to obtain contact information.
[0045] Exemplarily, multiple image frames can be processed separately to obtain multiple areas on the image frames where the ultrasound probe has contacted the human body, and then the multiple areas on the image frames where the ultrasound probe has contacted the human body can be processed by performing frame number statistics to obtain the times corresponding to the multiple areas on the ultrasound images where the ultrasound probe has contacted the human body, and finally the contact information can be obtained.
[0046] Contact information can also be obtained through a statistical model, that is, multiple B-ultrasound images are input into the statistical model, and the statistical model then outputs the corresponding contact information. The training process of the statistical model can be performed by using the data processed from multiple B-ultrasound images and contact information as the training data set of the statistical model, and then inputting the training data set of the statistical model into the statistical model for training and learning, and finally obtaining the statistical model.
[0047] With such an arrangement, the detection information is decomposed into image frames corresponding to multiple time frames by processing the detection information in frames, thereby reducing the amount of data processed at a single time, thereby improving the efficiency of data processing.
[0048] In a possible implementation, in step S320, analyzing multiple image frames to obtain contact information includes: S321, processing the multiple image frames one by one respectively to obtain multiple contact frame areas corresponding to the multiple image frames; wherein the contact frame area is used to reflect the area on the B-ultrasound probe in the image frame that has contacted the human body.
[0049] Exemplarily, each image frame is first denoised by using a filter (such as a Gaussian filter or a median filter), and then the contrast of each image frame is improved by using histogram equalization or adaptive contrast enhancement. Then, an edge detection algorithm (such as a Canny edge detection or a Sobel operator) is used to find the edge information in the image frame. Then, the threshold of the edge detection is adjusted to highlight the area in each image frame where the ultrasound probe contacts the human body. Finally, the area where the ultrasound probe contacts the human body is marked and identified on each image frame to obtain the contact frame area.
[0050] S322, performing frame number statistics and post-processing according to the plurality of contact frame regions to obtain contact information.
[0051] Exemplarily, the contact frame area can be counted in two-dimensional coordinates according to the position coordinates of the contact frame area, and then the frame number conversion processing can be performed by extracting the statistical number of the corresponding position coordinates to obtain the contact time in the contact information, and then the position coordinates are divided based on the contact time, and the position coordinates with the same contact time are divided into the same area to obtain the contact area, and finally the contact information is obtained. The formula for frame number conversion processing is: contact time = frame number ÷ frame rate. For example, if the position coordinates of a detected contact frame area are in the position coordinates (3,7) in the two-dimensional coordinates, the position coordinates (3,7) will be added by one to count the position coordinates of the corresponding contact frame area. When the frame number of the position coordinate (3,7) is 120 frames and the frame rate is 60, the contact time of the position coordinate (3,7) is 2 (120 ÷ 60) seconds. If the contact times of the position coordinates (3,7), (3,8), (4,7) and (4,8) are all 2 seconds, then the area formed by the position coordinates (3,7), (3,8), (4,7) and (4,8) is divided into a contact area with a contact time of 2 seconds, and so on.
[0052] Such a setting significantly improves the accuracy and efficiency of contact information acquisition by identifying and processing the contact frame area in the B-ultrasound image and performing frame statistics and division based on the contact frame area of multiple image frames. It also enables the contact information to reflect the visualization of data, support dynamic analysis, and promote the automation of statistical contact information.
[0053] S400, analyzing the contact information and the temperature information to obtain a disinfection indication diagram; wherein the disinfection indication diagram is used to indicate that the disinfection device disinfects the area on the B-ultrasound probe that has been in contact with the human body to different degrees.
[0054] It can be understood that the disinfection indication diagram refers to a diagram or indication tool used to display the disinfection area of the B-ultrasound probe and record the disinfection parameters. The disinfection parameters refer to the ultraviolet light intensity and the duration of ultraviolet light when the B-ultrasound probe is disinfected by ultraviolet light.
[0055] For example, the temperature information may be analyzed to obtain the ratio between the collected temperature information and the ambient temperature information, and then the ratio between the collected temperature information and the ambient temperature information may be analyzed with the contact information to obtain a disinfection indication diagram. An initial disinfection indication diagram may also be directly generated using the contact information, and then the initial disinfection indication diagram may be adjusted using the temperature information to ultimately form a disinfection indication diagram. The initial disinfection indication diagram refers to an indication diagram that is directly generated based on the contact information and is not adjusted.
[0056] In a possible implementation, in step S400, the contact information and the temperature information are analyzed to obtain a disinfection indication diagram, including: S410, analyzing the temperature information to obtain a temperature ratio; wherein the temperature ratio is used to reflect the ratio between the collected temperature information and the ambient temperature information.
[0057] It can be understood that temperature ratio = ambient temperature information ÷ collected temperature information.
[0058] For example, if the collected temperature information is 26°C and the ambient temperature information is 20°C, the temperature ratio is 0.769 (20°C ÷ 26°C); if the collected temperature is 30°C and the ambient temperature is 32°C, the temperature ratio is 1.067 (32°C ÷ 30°C), and so on.
[0059] S420, analyzing the contact information and the temperature ratio to obtain a disinfection indication diagram.
[0060] Exemplarily, by processing the contact information, the areas on multiple B-ultrasound probes that have contacted the human body and the durations corresponding to the contact between different contact areas on the B-ultrasound probe and the human body can be obtained, and then the areas on multiple B-ultrasound probes that have contacted the human body, the durations corresponding to the contact between different contact areas on the B-ultrasound probe and the human body, and the temperature ratios corresponding to each area on the B-ultrasound probe that has contacted the human body can be analyzed to obtain a disinfection indication map.
[0061] The contact information can also be processed to obtain the areas on multiple B-ultrasound probes that have been in contact with the human body and the maximum temperatures corresponding to when different contact areas on the B-ultrasound probes are in contact with the human body, and then the areas on multiple B-ultrasound probes that have been in contact with the human body, the maximum temperatures corresponding to when different contact areas on the B-ultrasound probes are in contact with the human body, and the temperature ratios can be analyzed to obtain a disinfection indication map.
[0062] Such a setting, by quantifying the difference between the collected temperature information and the ambient temperature information and calculating the temperature ratio, helps to clarify the impact of temperature changes on the disinfection parameters of the B-ultrasound probe, improves the accuracy and efficiency of disinfection, supports real-time monitoring and adjustment, and can promote the standardization and regularization of the disinfection process.
[0063] In a possible implementation, in step S420, the contact information and the temperature ratio are analyzed to obtain a disinfection indication diagram, including: S421, performing extraction processing according to the contact information to obtain a plurality of contact areas and a plurality of contact area times.
[0064] It can be understood that the contact area is obtained by dividing the area according to different contact times, so one contact area corresponds to one contact area time, that is, areas with the same contact time are classified as the same contact area.
[0065] S422, analyzing the temperature ratio, the multiple contact areas and the multiple contact area times to obtain a disinfection indication diagram.
[0066] It can be understood that the temperature ratio is obtained by the ratio between the collected temperature information and the ambient temperature information. The collected temperature information is used to reflect the maximum temperature reached in each contact area of the B-ultrasound probe when the B-ultrasound probe is detecting the human body. Therefore, multiple contact areas correspond to one collected temperature information, that is, multiple contact areas correspond to one temperature ratio.
[0067] Exemplarily, by comparing the temperature ratio with a preset value and analyzing the time of multiple contact areas, a disinfection indication diagram can be obtained, which reflects the disinfection intensity and disinfection time when the ultrasound probe disinfection equipment performs ultraviolet irradiation disinfection on the ultrasound probe. Then, by analyzing multiple contact areas, a disinfection indication diagram can be obtained.
[0068] It is also possible to obtain multiple adjusted temperatures by processing the maximum temperatures and temperature ratios corresponding to the areas on multiple B-ultrasound probes that have been in contact with the human body, and then analyze the multiple adjusted temperatures and the temperature database to obtain the disinfection intensity and disinfection time when the B-ultrasound probe is disinfected by ultraviolet irradiation corresponding to the multiple adjusted temperatures, and then analyze the disinfection intensity and disinfection time when the B-ultrasound probe is disinfected by ultraviolet irradiation with the areas on multiple B-ultrasound probes that have been in contact with the human body to obtain a disinfection indication map.
[0069] With this setting, by accurately locating the contact area, quantifying the contact duration, and comprehensively considering the temperature ratio to generate a disinfection instruction map, the different needs of B-ultrasound probe disinfection can be met and a visual display can be performed, thereby optimizing the allocation of disinfection resources, improving the safety and efficiency of disinfection, and promoting the standardization of the disinfection process.
[0070] In a possible implementation, in step S422, a disinfection indication diagram is obtained by analyzing the temperature ratio, the multiple contact areas, and the multiple contact area times, including: S4221, when the temperature ratio is greater than a preset threshold, multiple contact area times are analyzed to obtain multiple first disinfection parameters; wherein the first disinfection parameter is used to reflect the disinfection intensity and disinfection time when the B-ultrasound probe disinfection equipment disinfects the B-ultrasound probe by ultraviolet irradiation.
[0071] It can be understood that the disinfection intensity refers to the light intensity of ultraviolet rays. The disinfection time refers to the continuous illumination time of ultraviolet rays. The preset threshold refers to the preset temperature ratio. The preset threshold can be manually input. The preset threshold can also be directly obtained through the threshold database. The threshold database refers to a database containing different temperature ratios corresponding to different parts of the human body. These data can be obtained through laboratory experiments, on-site measurements and monitoring, and past experience. After obtaining, the collected data will be sorted, classified and archived, useful information and rules will be extracted, and the relevant data will be saved in the database to form a threshold database.
[0072] Exemplarily, by matching multiple contact area times with the disinfection parameter mapping table, multiple first disinfection parameters corresponding to the multiple contact area times can be directly obtained from the disinfection parameter mapping table. The disinfection parameter mapping table refers to a tool for guiding the B-ultrasound probe to perform disinfection work. The disinfection parameter mapping table systematically organizes and maps disinfection parameters such as disinfection intensity and disinfection time during the disinfection process of the B-ultrasound probe, so as to quickly and accurately determine the disinfection requirements and operating guidelines under specific circumstances. The disinfection parameter mapping table can be manually input manually. The disinfection parameter mapping table can also be directly obtained from the official website of a professional medical institution.
[0073] S4222, analyzing the multiple first disinfection parameters and the multiple contact areas to obtain a disinfection indication diagram.
[0074] It can be understood that, because different contact areas correspond to a contact area time, and the first disinfection parameter is obtained by corresponding to the contact area time and the disinfection parameter mapping table, that is, each contact area corresponds to a first disinfection parameter.
[0075] Exemplarily, the disinfection time in multiple first disinfection parameters can be processed to obtain the median mean between the disinfection times in multiple first disinfection parameters, and then the disinfection intensity corresponding to the disinfection time in multiple first disinfection parameters can be processed by the median mean between the disinfection times in multiple first disinfection parameters to obtain multiple ultraviolet light intensities corresponding to the median mean between the disinfection times in multiple first disinfection parameters, and finally the median mean between the disinfection times in multiple first disinfection parameters and the corresponding ultraviolet light intensities corresponding to the median mean between the disinfection times in multiple first disinfection parameters are assigned to the corresponding multiple contact intervals, and finally a disinfection indication diagram is formed. The median mean refers to the mean of the medians between the disinfection times in multiple first disinfection parameters.
[0076] It is also possible to process the disinfection times in multiple first disinfection parameters to obtain an average value reflecting the disinfection times in multiple first disinfection parameters, and then process the disinfection intensities corresponding to the disinfection times in multiple first disinfection parameters through the average value reflecting the disinfection times in multiple first disinfection parameters to obtain multiple ultraviolet light intensities corresponding to the average values reflecting the disinfection times in multiple first disinfection parameters. Finally, the average value reflecting the disinfection times in multiple first disinfection parameters and the corresponding ultraviolet light intensities corresponding to the average values reflecting the disinfection times in multiple first disinfection parameters are assigned to the corresponding multiple contact intervals to finally form a disinfection indication diagram.
[0077] With such a setting, through intelligent analysis of the temperature ratio and the contact area time, targeted disinfection parameters are generated and a disinfection instruction diagram is generated according to the targeted disinfection parameters, thereby realizing the intelligence, precision and visualization of the disinfection process, thereby improving the efficiency and effect of disinfecting the B-ultrasound probe.
[0078] In a possible implementation, in step S4222, a disinfection indication diagram is obtained based on analysis of multiple first disinfection parameters and multiple contact areas, including: S42221, process the disinfection time in multiple first disinfection parameters to obtain the optimal disinfection time; wherein the optimal disinfection time is used to reflect the median mean between the disinfection times in multiple first disinfection parameters.
[0079] It can be understood that the optimal disinfection time is obtained by sorting the disinfection times in the multiple first disinfection parameters in ascending or descending order to obtain a disinfection time series, then extracting the median in the disinfection time series, and then calculating the mean of the median to finally obtain the optimal disinfection time. Among them, when the disinfection time in the multiple first disinfection parameters is an even number, the optimal disinfection time is the mean between the medians in the disinfection time series, and when the disinfection time in the multiple first disinfection parameters is an odd number, the optimal disinfection time is directly the median in the disinfection time series.
[0080] Exemplarily, if the disinfection time among multiple first disinfection parameters is 23s, 57s, 134s, 35s, 25s, and 98s, the disinfection time sequence may be (23s, 25s, 35s, 57s, 98s, and 134s), then the optimal disinfection time is 46[(57+35)÷2]s; if the disinfection time among multiple first disinfection parameters is 35s, 56s, 72s, 34s, and 58s, and the disinfection time sequence is (34s, 35s, 56s, 58s, and 72s), then the optimal disinfection time is 56s, and so on.
[0081] S42222, processing the disinfection intensities in the multiple first disinfection parameters according to the optimal disinfection time and the disinfection time in the multiple first disinfection parameters to obtain multiple optimal disinfection intensities; wherein the optimal disinfection intensity is used to reflect the ultraviolet light intensity corresponding to the optimal disinfection time.
[0082] It can be understood that disinfection intensity × disinfection time ÷ optimal disinfection time = optimal disinfection intensity.
[0083] For example, if the disinfection intensity is 100 μW / cm², the disinfection time is 23 s, and the optimal disinfection time is 46 s, then the optimal disinfection intensity is 50 (100×23÷46) μW / cm², and so on.
[0084] S42223, assign the optimal disinfection time and multiple optimal disinfection intensities to the corresponding multiple contact areas to obtain a disinfection indication map.
[0085] It can be understood that the disinfection indication diagram is composed of multiple contact areas. Multiple contact areas have corresponding optimal disinfection intensities. The optimal disinfection time is the disinfection time when the entire disinfection indication diagram is disinfected.
[0086] Exemplarily, the disinfection indication diagram can be represented by different color blocks for different contact areas. The block positions of different color blocks reflect different contact areas. For example, when there are two contact areas and the optimal disinfection time is 5 minutes, and the optimal disinfection intensity of the first disinfection area is 120μW / cm², the contact area with the optimal disinfection intensity of 120μW / cm² can be assigned red, and the optimal disinfection intensity of the second disinfection area is 80μW / cm². When the disinfection intensity is 80μW / cm², the contact area with the optimal disinfection intensity of 80μW / cm² can be assigned green. Then the disinfection indication diagram is an indication diagram of the first disinfection area with the optimal disinfection time of 5 minutes and can display red and the second disinfection area with green, and so on.
[0087] The disinfection indication diagram can also be represented by different shadow densities for different contact areas. The positions occupied by different shadow densities reflect different contact areas. Shadow density refers to the number of black lines in each contact area of the disinfection indication diagram. For example, when there are two contact areas and the optimal disinfection time is 5 minutes, and the optimal disinfection intensity of the first disinfection area is 120μW / cm², the shadow density of the contact area corresponding to the optimal disinfection intensity of 120μW / cm² can be 100 black lines per cm 2 When the optimal disinfection intensity of the second disinfection area is 80μW / cm², the shadow density of the contact area corresponding to the optimal disinfection intensity of 80μW / cm² can be 40 black lines per cm 2 , then the disinfection indication diagram shows that the optimal disinfection time is 5 minutes and the shadow density can be displayed as 100 black lines per cm 2 The first disinfected area and the shadow density is 40 black lines per cm 2 The second disinfection area is indicated by a diagram, and so on.
[0088] With such a setting, the optimal disinfection time is obtained by calculating the median mean of the disinfection time in multiple first disinfection parameters. The influence of the extreme values of the disinfection time in multiple first disinfection parameters can be reduced, and a robust time estimation is provided to ensure the rationality and effectiveness of the disinfection time. Based on the optimal disinfection time, the disinfection intensity is processed to obtain multiple optimal disinfection intensities, which can ensure that within the optimal disinfection time, the ultraviolet light intensity can meet the requirements of effective disinfection while avoiding excessive disinfection.
[0089] In a possible implementation, in step S422, analyzing the temperature ratio, the multiple contact areas and the multiple contact area times to obtain a disinfection indication diagram further includes: S4223, when the temperature ratio is less than or equal to the preset threshold, analyze the temperature ratio to obtain a temperature correction factor; wherein the temperature correction factor is used to reflect the value of the change in disinfection time caused by temperature change.
[0090] It can be understood that the calculation formula of the temperature correction factor can be: , where k is the experimentally calibrated attenuation coefficient, Tr is the temperature ratio, and C is the temperature correction factor.
[0091] For example, if the attenuation coefficient K is 0.62 and the temperature ratio Tr is 0.54, the temperature correction factor is 0.48 (0.62×0.78), and so on.
[0092] S4224, analyzing the temperature correction factor and the multiple contact area times to obtain multiple second disinfection parameters; wherein the second disinfection parameters are used to reflect the ultraviolet light intensity and ultraviolet light time adjusted by the temperature correction factor.
[0093] It can be understood that the mechanism of disinfecting bacteria or viruses on the B-ultrasound probe by ultraviolet rays is to destroy the DNA or RNA structure of bacteria or viruses through ultraviolet rays (especially the UVC band), making it impossible for bacteria or viruses to carry out normal replication and metabolic life activities, thereby achieving the killing effect on bacteria or viruses. When the temperature ratio is less than or equal to the preset threshold, it means that the activity of bacteria or viruses on the B-ultrasound probe is weak, and the self-repair mechanism of bacteria or viruses is relatively weak, so a higher ultraviolet dose is not required to achieve the killing effect.
[0094] Exemplarily, by analyzing the time of multiple contact areas, multiple estimated ultraviolet light duration times and multiple estimated ultraviolet light intensities can be obtained, and then the multiple estimated ultraviolet light duration times are processed by a temperature correction factor to finally obtain a disinfection time obtained by adjusting the multiple estimated ultraviolet light duration times according to the temperature correction factor, and then the disinfection time obtained by adjusting the multiple estimated ultraviolet light duration times according to the temperature correction factor is processed by the corresponding multiple estimated ultraviolet light duration times, multiple estimated ultraviolet light intensities and the multiple estimated ultraviolet light duration times according to the temperature correction factor to obtain multiple adjusted ultraviolet light intensities, and finally multiple second disinfection parameters are obtained by matching the multiple adjusted ultraviolet light intensities with the disinfection times obtained by adjusting the multiple estimated ultraviolet light duration times according to the temperature correction factor one by one.
[0095] It is also possible to obtain multiple estimated ultraviolet light intensities and multiple estimated ultraviolet continuous illumination times by analyzing the time of multiple contact areas, and then process the multiple estimated ultraviolet light intensities through a temperature correction factor to finally obtain a disinfection intensity obtained by adjusting the multiple estimated ultraviolet light intensities according to the temperature correction factor, and then process the disinfection intensity obtained by adjusting the multiple estimated ultraviolet light intensities according to the corresponding multiple estimated ultraviolet continuous illumination intensities, the multiple estimated ultraviolet continuous illumination times, and the multiple estimated ultraviolet light intensities according to the temperature correction factor to obtain multiple adjusted ultraviolet continuous illumination times, and finally obtain multiple second disinfection parameters by matching the multiple adjusted ultraviolet continuous illumination times with the disinfection times obtained by adjusting the pairs of estimated ultraviolet light intensities according to the temperature correction factors.
[0096] In a possible implementation, in step S4224, multiple second disinfection parameters are obtained by analyzing the temperature correction factor and multiple contact area times, and further comprising: S42241, analyze multiple contact area times to obtain multiple initial disinfection times and multiple initial disinfection intensities.
[0097] It is understood that the initial disinfection time refers to the initial set duration of ultraviolet light exposure before the B-ultrasound probe is disinfected. The initial disinfection intensity refers to the expected or recommended ultraviolet light intensity when the B-ultrasound probe is disinfected. Exemplarily, a disinfection parameter mapping table can be used to match multiple contact area times, and multiple initial disinfection times and multiple initial disinfection intensities corresponding to multiple contact area times can be directly obtained from the disinfection parameter mapping table.
[0098] S42242, scaling the multiple initial disinfection times according to the temperature correction factor to obtain multiple corrected disinfection times.
[0099] It can be understood that the corrected disinfection time = initial disinfection time × temperature correction factor. When the temperature ratio is less than or equal to the preset threshold, the activity of the bacteria or viruses on the B-ultrasound probe is weak, and the self-repair mechanism of the bacteria or viruses is also relatively weak. Therefore, a higher ultraviolet dose is not required to achieve the killing effect, so the multiple initial disinfection times can be scaled by the temperature correction factor. Exemplarily, if the multiple initial disinfection times are 134s, 98s, and 85s, and the temperature correction factor is 0.48, then the initial disinfection time of 134s corresponds to a corrected disinfection time of 64.32 (134×0.48)s, the initial disinfection time of 98s corresponds to a corrected disinfection time of 47.04 (98×0.48)s, the initial disinfection time of 85 (85×0.48)s corresponds to a corrected disinfection time of 40.8s, and so on.
[0100] S42243, processing is performed according to the corresponding multiple initial disinfection times, multiple initial disinfection intensities and multiple corrected disinfection times to obtain multiple corrected disinfection intensities.
[0101] It can be understood that initial disinfection time × initial disinfection intensity ÷ corrected disinfection time = corrected disinfection intensity.
[0102] For example, if the initial disinfection time is 134s, the corrected disinfection time is 64.32s, and the initial disinfection intensity is 80μW / cm², then the corrected disinfection intensity is 166.67μW / cm², and so on.
[0103] S42244, respectively matching the multiple corrected disinfection times with the multiple corresponding corrected disinfection intensities to obtain multiple second disinfection parameters.
[0104] It can be understood that the ultraviolet light dose for disinfecting bacteria or viruses on the B-ultrasound probe is obtained based on the contact area time and disinfection parameter mapping table. Therefore, one contact area has only one contact area time, which further means that one contact area corresponds to one ultraviolet light dose, and finally it can be obtained that the corrected disinfection time corresponds to a corrected disinfection intensity.
[0105] For example, if the corrected disinfection time is 64.32s, the corrected disinfection intensity 166.67μW / cm² is obtained by performing data calculation on the corrected disinfection time 64.32s and the corresponding initial disinfection time and the corresponding initial disinfection intensity, then the second parameter is (166.67μW / cm², 64.32s), and so on.
[0106] With such a setting, by analyzing the time of multiple contact areas, the initial disinfection time and initial disinfection intensity are obtained, and personalized disinfection parameters are provided for different contact areas, which can ensure the pertinence and effectiveness of the disinfection parameters for different contact areas. The initial disinfection time is scaled by the temperature correction factor to obtain the corrected disinfection time, so that the disinfection process can adapt to different ambient temperatures, thereby improving the flexibility and adaptability of the second disinfection parameter. The corrected disinfection time is matched with the corresponding corrected disinfection intensity to obtain multiple second disinfection parameters, thereby achieving accurate matching of disinfection time and intensity, thereby improving the disinfection effect.
[0107] S4225, analyzing the multiple second disinfection parameters and the multiple contact areas to obtain a disinfection indication diagram.
[0108] It can be understood that, because different contact areas correspond to a contact area time, and the second disinfection parameter is obtained by corresponding to the contact area time and the disinfection parameter mapping table, that is, each contact area corresponds to a second disinfection parameter.
[0109] Exemplarily, the process of obtaining the disinfection indication map can be obtained by assigning the optimal disinfection time and multiple optimal disinfection intensities to the corresponding multiple contact areas in a similar manner to step S42223, and the disinfection indication map is obtained, which will not be repeated here.
[0110] With this setting, based on the temperature correction factor and multiple contact area times, multiple second disinfection parameters are analyzed and obtained, including the adjusted ultraviolet light intensity and ultraviolet continuous illumination time, which can accurately control and ensure the stability and effectiveness of the disinfection effect under temperature changes. By correcting the temperature factor and adjusting the disinfection parameters, the targetedness and effectiveness of the disinfection are enhanced, ensuring that the ideal disinfection effect can be achieved under different temperature conditions.
[0111] S500: The control device controls the disinfection device to perform a disinfection operation on the B-ultrasound probe based on the disinfection indication diagram.
[0112] It can be understood that the disinfection mechanism in the disinfection device supports a regional differentiated intensity irradiation mode. The regional differentiated intensity irradiation mode refers to a disinfection mode in which the disinfection mechanism can differentiate the light intensity and illumination time of the ultraviolet rays of the disinfection mechanism according to the characteristics and disinfection requirements of different areas in the disinfection indication diagram. The regional differentiated intensity irradiation mode can be added to the disinfection mechanism through a programmable LED matrix.
[0113] Exemplarily, if there are two different disinfection blocks (i.e., contact areas) in the disinfection indication diagram, and the first disinfection block shows that the required ultraviolet light intensity is 87μW / cm² and the required ultraviolet light exposure time is 54s, and the second disinfection block shows that the required ultraviolet light intensity is 64μW / cm² and the required ultraviolet light exposure time is 15s, then the control device controls the disinfection device to perform a disinfection operation on the first disinfection block of the B-ultrasound probe with an ultraviolet light intensity of 87μW / cm² and an ultraviolet light exposure time of 54s, and performs a disinfection operation on the second disinfection block with an ultraviolet light intensity of 64μW / cm² and an ultraviolet light exposure time of 15s, and so on.
[0114] With such a setting, an instruction diagram for performing different degrees of disinfection on different contact areas on the B-ultrasound probe is provided, and the influence of temperature changes on disinfection parameters is taken into consideration, so that each area of the B-ultrasound probe can be disinfected in a targeted manner to avoid waste of resources, thereby improving the disinfection efficiency of the B-ultrasound probe and the disinfection effect of the B-ultrasound probe, as well as improving the accuracy and efficiency of disinfection, supporting real-time monitoring and adjustment, promoting the standardization and regularization of the disinfection process, and using the disinfection instruction diagram of the B-ultrasound disinfection equipment as a learning resource for medical staff, thereby enhancing the medical staff's experience in disinfecting B-ultrasound probe equipment.
