Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of sleep monitoring, in particular to a closed-loop adaptive transcranial electrical stimulation sleep regulation system and device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The statements in this section merely provide background technology related to the present application and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] Transcranial electrical stimulation techniques, such as tDCS (transcranial direct current stimulation) and CES (cranial electrotherapy stimulator), as a non-invasive neural regulation means, have been widely used in the treatment of sleep disorders, depression and other neuropsychiatric diseases. Traditional tDCS adjusts cortical excitability through constant current (0.5mA~2mA), while CES relies on fixed parameter micro-current stimulation.

[0004] However, the traditional tDCS uses fixed current signal stimulation (fixed amplitude and frequency), which cannot adaptively adjust the parameters according to the dynamic changes of brain electrical activity in the sleep cycle (such as the increase of non-rapid eye movement period delta wave power and the dominance of theta wave in rapid eye movement period). This "one-size-fits-all" stimulation strategy may lead to insufficient stimulation in non-rapid eye movement period, and the demand for cortical excitability decreases when sleep deepens. Fixed current may cause excessive excitation of neurons and interfere with slow wave sleep structure; REM (rapid eye movement sleep) EEG shows low-amplitude fast waves, and fixed current may destroy the unique neural oscillation pattern of REM, inducing dream abnormalities or wakefulness response; Open-loop CES devices usually operate independently of the EEG monitoring module. EEG signals reveal millisecond-level neuron cluster activity, and the fixed stimulation frequency (such as 30 minutes / time) of traditional CES cannot match the transient changes of EEG, which may miss the key intervention window (such as when sleep spindle appears).

[0044] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0045] The application innovatively provides a closed-loop adaptive transcranial electrical stimulation sleep regulation system, according to the obtained real-time state of blood vessels, the current frequency variation rate of an anode discharge signal and the current amplitude variation rate of the anode discharge signal are dynamically adjusted to determine a dynamic discharge signal, and the dynamic discharge signal is used for electrical stimulation to regulate sleep, so that precise control of transcranial electrical stimulation sleep regulation is realized.
