Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of off-bed monitoring assistance for high-risk patients, and particularly to an off-bed alarm device for high-risk patients of falling out of bed. Background Technique

[0002] Off-bed monitoring for high-risk patients is of crucial importance, aiming to ensure the safety of patients and reduce the risk of accidents. Off-bed risk: High-risk patients are prone to falling and getting injured, sudden changes in their condition, getting lost, catheter detachment or distortion, and other accidents when getting out of bed, which pose a serious threat to the safety of patients. Monitoring technology: Off-bed monitoring technology based on capacitance detection principle is relatively commonly used. By reasonably distributing components such as capacitance sensors and electrodes, and cooperating with a signal processing circuit, the off-bed behavior of patients can be accurately detected. There are many risks when patients get out of bed, such as falling and getting injured, deterioration of the condition, getting lost, abnormal catheters, and other accidents. Related detection components based on capacitance detection are used for off-bed detection.

[0003] Off-bed monitoring for high-risk patients is of crucial importance. It is necessary to monitor the off-bed situation of high-risk patients to ensure the rehabilitation environment of patients and reduce the risk of accidents. In this process, off-bed monitoring is usually adopted. Existing off-bed monitoring mostly uses multiple sensors to be installed on patients or uses hardware for restriction. The use of multiple devices will increase the discomfort of patients. There are problems such as a single monitoring method, low monitoring sensitivity, poor comfort during the monitoring process, inability to adopt different monitoring collocation methods for different risk patients according to actual usage requirements, and if an integrated monitoring hospital bed is purchased for home use by patients or other monitoring places (such as nursing homes and retirement homes, etc.), it will consume more usage funds. Moreover, most of the existing ones cannot improve and upgrade the existing hospital beds. If they are forcibly phased out and replaced, it will also cause a certain amount of resource waste. Based on this, an off-bed alarm device for high-risk patients of falling out of bed is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. When the device is in use, the user lays the airbag pad on the bed, fixes the control box at the bed leg, then externally connects the power adapter to the power supply to supply power to the control box, selects the operation mode and then uses it, wears the bracelet on the patient's arm, and then plugs the other power adapter into the warning flashing lamp for power supply, and places the warning flashing lamp at the nurse's desk or the outer wall observation point. During use, the control box is paired and connected with the bracelet and the warning flashing lamp through Bluetooth. Before that, the mounting bracket is installed on the side of the bed through bolts and adjusted according to the required width. After being fixed by the lock and pin, the out-of-bed guardrail mechanism and the mounting bracket form a guardrail on the side of the bed, reducing the risk of falling from the traditional bed. When in use, the airbag pad is subjected to the lying pressure of the patient, and the piezoresistive pressure sensors distributed at multiple points inside assist in determining the lying postures of different patients according to the detected and feedback pressure, thereby reducing risks, being able to transform the traditional bed, reducing the use of funds, and being able to be used in different family and nursing and other monitoring scenarios;

[0017] 2. The distribution of the piezoresistive pressure sensors in this solution is in the general shape of the human body. When the patient lies on their side, the piezoresistive pressure sensors distributed on one side are subjected to greater pressure at this time. The patient lies on the airbag pad and above the bed, applies pressure to the airbag pad and causes a certain deformation, and squeezes the sponge cushion layer, prompting the pressure to be applied to the piezoresistive pressure sensors, assisting in determining the risk of the patient getting up, facilitating data collection, and improving the comfort of the patient using the airbag pad, increasing the overall use effect and comfort;

[0018] 3. When installing the present invention on a traditional bed, holes are drilled through the bedside, the mounting bracket is attached to the bedside, and the mounting bracket is fixed by inserting screws through the vertical mounting holes and side mounting holes. The setting of the gas spring telescopic column is to buffer the patient's hand support. For example, when the patient's arm is placed on the top of the telescopic outer frame and telescopic inner frame, at this time, the gas spring telescopic column is stressed and slowly moves down, buffering the force, reducing the rigidity of the telescopic outer frame and telescopic inner frame on the arm, and extending the contact time between the patient's arm and the telescopic outer frame and telescopic inner frame during buffering, which is beneficial to the capacitance detection and confirmation of the capacitance detection electrode sheet and the capacitance sensor, and is beneficial to protecting the patient's reaction time and notification time during this buffer, thereby assisting in reducing the risk of getting out of bed.

Detailed implementation manners

[0035] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0036] Please refer to Figures 1 - 15, the present invention provides a technical solution: a bed leaving alarm device for patients at high risk of falling and getting out of bed, including an airbag pad 1, a control box 2, a mounting bracket 3, a warning flashing lamp 6, a power adapter 7 and a wearable bracelet 8. The inside of the airbag pad 1 is filled with a sponge cushion layer 105. At the bottom of the inner cavity of the airbag pad 1, a number of piezoresistive pressure sensors 106 are provided. Horizontally sealed sutures 103 are sewn inside the airbag pad 1, and vertically sealed sutures 104 are sewn inside the airbag pad 1. A number of friction bumps 101 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the airbag pad 1. Two air ducts 107 are fixedly installed inside the airbag pad 1. A number of air guide holes 108 are opened on the opposite sides of the two air ducts 107. One end of the airbag pad 1 is communicated with an inflation valve 102. One end of the airbag pad 1 is fixedly connected with a first connecting wire 201, and the other end of the first connecting wire 201 is connected to the control box 2.

[0037] A number of side mounting holes 302 are opened on one side of the mounting bracket 3, and a number of vertical mounting holes 301 are opened on the top of the mounting bracket 3. A bed leaving guardrail mechanism 4 is movably installed on the top of the mounting bracket 3. The bed leaving guardrail mechanism 4 includes a telescopic inner frame 406. Sliding grooves 408 are opened on the front and back of the telescopic inner frame 406. Telescopic outer frames 405 are movably sleeved on the outer sides of both ends of the telescopic inner frame 406. Plugging heads 411 are movably clamped at both ends of the telescopic outer frame 405. A capacitive detection mechanism 5 is movably installed inside the telescopic inner frame 406 and the telescopic outer frame 405. The capacitive detection mechanism 5 includes a capacitive sensor 501 and a number of capacitive detection electrode plates 504. The output end of the capacitive sensor 501 is connected with a second connecting wire 502, and the other end of the second connecting wire 502 is electrically connected to an XLR plug 503.

[0038] Working principle of the above technical solution: When in use, the user lays the airbag pad 1 on the bed, fixes the control box 2 at the bed leg, then externally connects the power adapter 7 to the power supply to supply power to the control box 2, selects the operation mode and then uses it, wears the bracelet 8 on the patient's arm, and then plugs the other power adapter 7 into the warning flashing light 6 to supply power, and places the warning flashing light 6 at the nurse's desk or the outer wall observation point. When in use, the control box 2 is paired and connected with the bracelet 8 and the warning flashing light 6 through Bluetooth. Before that, the mounting bracket 3 is installed on the side of the bed through bolts, and the lengths of the telescopic outer frame 405 and the telescopic inner frame 406 are stretched according to the required width, and then the corresponding mounting seat 402 is inserted into the bolt to install the gas spring telescopic column 401 on the top of the mounting bracket 3. After being fixed by the lock and pin, the out-of-bed guardrail mechanism 4 and the mounting bracket 3 form a guardrail on the side of the bed, reducing the risk of falling from a traditional bed. When in use, the airbag pad 1 is subjected to the lying pressure of the patient, and the piezoresistive pressure sensors 106 distributed at multiple points inside detect and feedback the pressure to assist in determining the lying postures of different patients. If the overall pressure of the piezoresistive pressure sensors 106 decreases and the capacitive detection mechanism 5 feedbacks capacitive touch, it can be indirectly determined that the patient has a risk of getting out of bed. At this time, notifications are sent through the warning flashing light 6, the bracelet 8 and the control box 2, thus reducing the risk. It can transform the traditional bed, reduce the capital use, and can be used in different family and nursing and other monitoring scenarios.

[0039] In another embodiment, as Figures 1 - 6 shown, the piezoresistive pressure sensors 106 are arranged inside the airbag pad 1 according to the human body form, and the distribution positions of the piezoresistive pressure sensors 106 correspond to the distribution positions of the horizontal suture separation line 103 and the vertical suture separation line 104. The horizontal suture separation line 103 is linearly and evenly distributed inside the airbag pad 1, the vertical suture separation line 104 is discontinuously distributed inside the airbag pad 1, and the friction bumps 101 are rectangularly and linearly evenly distributed at the bottom of the airbag pad 1.

[0040] The piezoresistive pressure sensors 106 are distributed in the approximate shape of the human body. For example, the symmetrical parts are at the legs and arms, the middle part is the torso, and the vertex is the head. When the patient lies on their side, the piezoresistive pressure sensors 106 distributed on one side are under greater pressure at this time. The patient lies on the airbag pad 1 and above the bed, applying pressure to the airbag pad 1 and causing certain deformation, as well as squeezing the sponge cushion layer 105, so that the pressure is applied to the piezoresistive pressure sensors 106. According to the different data of the piezoresistive pressure sensors 106 and calculating the total pressure, the lying posture of the patient is assisted to be determined. If the pressure is significantly less than the pressure when the patient lies flat completely and there are piezoresistive pressure sensors 106 with relatively large feedback pressure data locally, it can be determined at this time that the patient has a risk of getting up, which is convenient for data collection. The airbags of the airbag pad 1 improve the comfort of the patient's use, increasing the overall use effect and comfort. The sponge cushion layer 105 improves the softness: the sponge is soft in texture and can buffer the human body pressure. Matched with the airbag, it can make the contact part feel softer and reduce the stiffness, and improve the fit: the sponge can deform according to the human body curve and closely fit the body.

[0041] In another embodiment, as Figures 1 - 6 and Figure 15 shown, two air ducts 107 are symmetrically and fixedly installed inside the airbag pad 1. The air holes 108 are linearly and evenly distributed inside the air ducts 107. The positions of the air holes 108 correspond to the positions of the horizontal sewing separation lines 103. The opposite ends of the two air ducts 107 are connected to a connecting plate 109. One end of the connecting plate 109 is connected to a connecting pipe 110. A movable piston 111 is movably sleeved inside the connecting pipe 110. A movable frame 112 is fixedly installed on one side of the movable piston 111. The movable frame 112 is movably sleeved inside the connecting pipe 110. Two conductive seats 114 are fixedly installed on the side of the movable frame 112 away from the movable piston 111. A resistance winding 113 is wound around the inner wall of the connecting pipe 110. The outer sides of the two conductive seats 114 are slidably and electrically connected to the inner side of the resistance winding 113. A flexible spring 115 is fixedly installed on the side of the movable frame 112 away from the movable piston 111. The other end of the flexible spring 115 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the connecting pipe 110. One end of the connecting pipe 110 is closed.

[0042] Since the airbag pad 1 is a sealed airbag structure, and the inside of the airbag pad 1 is partitioned by the horizontal sewing separation line 103 and the vertical sewing separation line 104, the deformation of the airbag is restricted, the overall structural strength is increased, and the piezoresistive pressure sensor 106 is separated, which facilitates subsequent product specifications to partition the airbag and detect it through the piezoresistive pressure sensor 106 in the partition. The inflation output pipe of the inflation valve 102 extends to the closed inside of the horizontal sewing separation line 103. The current detection is to measure the pressure data of different parts inside the airbag pad 1 through the piezoresistive pressure sensor 106, and the airbag pad 1 and the sponge cushion layer 105 move downward under the human pressure and contact the piezoresistive pressure sensor 106. According to different data, when the airbag pad 1 is pressed, the air pressure is evenly distributed and the air pressure is communicated to the communication disc 109 through the diversion of the air guide hole 108 and the air guide pipe 107, and applied to the moving piston 111. At this time, the internal pressure of the communication pipe 110 on one side of the moving piston 111 is the same as the pressure during assembly, and the moving piston 111 is deformed and pressurized by the airbag of the airbag pad 1, prompting the moving piston 111 to move toward the communication pipe 110 side, and then pushing the moving frame 112 to move, so that the conductive seat 114 changes the change of the detection current when contacting the resistance winding 113. The connection terminals of the resistance winding 113 and the conductive seat 114 are connected to the microcontroller inside the control box 2 through the connecting wire 1 201, so that the detection current is output and sent out through the conductive seat 114, and the detection current returns to the detection measurement end under the sliding variable resistance principle of the resistance winding 113, so as to determine the data. Since the inside of the communication pipe 110 is sealed and the moving distance of the moving piston 111 is limited, the farther the conductive seat 114 slides with the resistance winding 113, the greater the pressure represented by the numerical change feedback. This scheme is to feedback the measurement data of the piezoresistive pressure sensor 106 after the airbag pad 1 is completely pressed, combined with the total pressure, and then combined with the data and then matched with the feedback to assist in improving the accuracy of the patient's bedridden analysis.

[0043] In another embodiment, such as Figures 3 - 7As shown in the figure, a push-button unlocking buckle 409 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the telescopic outer frame 405. A push-button fixing end 410 is movably installed at the output end of the push-button unlocking buckle 409. Top hinge seats 404 are fixedly installed at the bottoms of the telescopic inner frame 406 and the telescopic outer frame 405. An air spring telescopic column 401 is hinged to the bottom of the top hinge seat 404. The push-button fixing end 410 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the air spring telescopic column 401. The bottom of the air spring telescopic column 401 is hinged to a mounting seat 402. Mounting bolts 403 are movably inserted into the interiors of both ends of the mounting seat 402. Plastic protective sleeves 407 are fixedly installed at the opposite ends of the telescopic outer frame 405. The plastic protective sleeves 407 are movably sleeved on the outside of the telescopic inner frame 406. Capacitive detection electrode plates 504 are linearly and evenly distributed on the inner walls of the telescopic outer frame 405 and the telescopic inner frame 406. The specification dimensions of the capacitive detection electrode plates 504 are adapted to the specification dimensions of the sliding grooves 408. The connection ends of the capacitive detection electrode plates 504 are connected to the measurement ends of a capacitive sensor 501 through wires. Pin holes are provided in the interiors of the opposite ends of the telescopic outer frame 405 and the telescopic inner frame 406.

[0044] When retrofitting a traditional bed, holes are drilled through the bedside, the mounting frame 3 is fitted to the bedside, and screws are inserted through the vertical mounting holes 301 and the side mounting holes 302 to fix the mounting frame 3. The off-bed guardrail mechanism 4 is fixed by inserting the mounting base 402 and the mounting bolts 403 into the vertical mounting holes 301 for sliding adjustment according to the required size. Then, the sleeved length of the telescopic inner frame 406 and the telescopic outer frame 405 is adjusted accordingly, and the lengths of the telescopic outer frame 405 and the telescopic inner frame 406 are fixed by inserting pins into the mating pin holes. When the gas spring telescopic column 401 is erected, it is fixed by the push-type unlocking buckle 409 and the push buckle fixed end 410. The gas spring telescopic column 401 is provided to buffer the action of the patient's hand support. For example, when the patient's arm is placed on the top of the telescopic outer frame 405 and the telescopic inner frame 406, the gas spring telescopic column 401 is slowly lowered under the force, buffering the force, reducing the rigidity of the telescopic outer frame 405 and the telescopic inner frame 406 against the arm, and prolonging the contact time between the patient's arm and the telescopic outer frame 405 and the telescopic inner frame 406 during buffering, which is beneficial to the capacitance detection and confirmation of the capacitance detection electrode sheet 504 and the capacitance sensor 501, and is beneficial to protecting the patient's reaction time and notification time during this buffering, thereby assisting in reducing the risk of getting out of bed. When in use, the XLR plug 503 is inserted into the XLR interface 203 for device connection, facilitating use. On the vertical side frames on both sides of the off-bed guardrail, multiple capacitance sensors and electrodes are evenly distributed. The electrodes are in strip shape and arranged along the length direction of the frame to increase the detection area and sensitivity, so as to detect the approaching or contacting actions of the patient on the side of the guardrail. On the top crossbar of the guardrail, a row of capacitance sensors and electrodes are also installed to increase the sensitivity. These electrodes can be designed in a circular or segmented form, surrounding the crossbar, for detecting the action of the patient climbing over the guardrail from above. For the off-bed guardrail with adjustable height, capacitance sensors should also be installed near the lifting mechanism of the guardrail to detect the interaction between the patient and the guardrail when the height of the guardrail changes.

[0045] In another embodiment, as Figures 3 - 7 shown, the vertical mounting holes 301 and the side mounting holes 302 are linearly and evenly distributed inside the mounting frame 3, and the number of the vertical mounting holes 301 and the number of the side mounting holes 302 are in a linear multiple relationship.

[0050] The capacitance detection data of the capacitive detection mechanism 5 is transmitted to the signal processing circuit module 216 through the connecting wire two 502 and the XLR plug 503 via the XLR interface 203. This is the core component for detecting capacitance changes. Its size, shape, and capacitance value range are determined according to actual requirements. Electrodes: Cooperate with the capacitive sensor to form a capacitance detection loop.

For example, when the patient goes to the toilet, multi-range warnings can be given for high-risk and low-risk patients when they leave the bed and move away. The Wi-Fi connection module 220 facilitates the addition of networking capabilities. By developing an APP port later to view the patient's bed leaving records and data records, it is convenient for the subsequent product stability. The warning speaker 209 is used to emit a warning sound during bed leaving warnings. The warning light 206 flashes to indicate that a bed leaving detection warning has occurred at this bed position.

[0054] Inside the wearable bracelet 8, an acceleration sensor, a Bluetooth communication module and a power module are additionally installed on the basis of its basic functions, which are used for Bluetooth ranging and receiving notification messages. By wearing it on the arm of the caregiver or the monitored patient, different functions can be realized. And the acceleration sensor is used to record the approximate movement of the patient's arm, and the Bluetooth communication module is used to determine the approximate distance from the warning speaker 209 and thus approximately determine the location of the control box 2 on the bed.
