Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to a device for treating osteoporosis using a combination of electromagnetic field, ultrasound, and denosumab. Background Technology
[0002] Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease characterized by decreased bone mass and destruction of bone microstructure, leading to increased bone fragility and susceptibility to fractures. With the increasing aging of the global population, the incidence of osteoporosis is rising annually, seriously affecting the quality of life and health of the elderly. Currently, denosumab, as a novel anti-osteoporosis drug, specifically binds to the receptor activator of nuclear factor κB (RANKL), inhibiting the generation, function, and survival of osteoclasts, thereby reducing bone resorption and increasing bone density, achieving good results in the treatment of osteoporosis. However, the use of denosumab alone has limitations such as limited drug absorption efficiency and imprecise targeting, resulting in a long treatment cycle and poor patient compliance.
[0003] Meanwhile, electromagnetic fields and ultrasound have been widely studied and applied in the medical field. Electromagnetic fields can regulate the physiological functions of cells, promote the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts, and improve bone metabolism. Ultrasound has mechanical, thermal, and cavitation effects, which can enhance the transdermal absorption of drugs, promote local blood circulation, and accelerate tissue repair. However, existing treatment devices often use electromagnetic fields, ultrasound, and drug therapy separately, which cannot fully utilize their synergistic effects, and the treatment effect needs to be further improved. Therefore, this invention provides a device that can combine electromagnetic fields, ultrasound, and denosumab to achieve efficient and precise treatment of osteoporosis. Summary of the Invention

The synergistic effect of these three methods improves the treatment efficacy of osteoporosis, increasing bone density more quickly and effectively and shortening the treatment cycle compared to single treatment methods.
[0021] This invention, through the design of a base plate, a supporting mattress plate, and a transmission component, allows for the adjustment of the position and angle of the drug delivery module, electromagnetic field generation module, and ultrasonic wave generation module according to the different treatment sites of the patient. This is achieved by using components such as a drive cylinder and motor A, ensuring precise alignment with the anatomical structures of different skeletal locations such as the lumbar spine and hip joint. Simultaneously, an external control module can precisely control the generation of electromagnetic fields and ultrasonic waves of different frequencies and intensities, as well as the delivery dosage of denosumab solution, based on personalized treatment parameters input from the display and interaction module. This enables precise and personalized treatment for different patients and conditions, improving the accuracy and effectiveness of the treatment.
[0022] In this invention, the design of the arc-shaped outer frame, arc-shaped sliding plate, and drive assembly in the drug delivery module allows the atomizing nozzle mechanism to move flexibly within a certain range, expanding the spray coverage area of the liquid medicine and ensuring that the liquid medicine can act evenly on the treatment site. In addition, the slider, L-shaped adjusting plate, threaded rod, and other structures in the transmission assembly, together with the drive cylinder and motor A, can adjust the position of the treatment device, which not only adapts to the physical characteristics of different patients, but also allows for flexible adjustment according to actual needs during the treatment process, further improving the targeting and effectiveness of the treatment.

[0031] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0032] This invention discloses a device for treating osteoporosis using electromagnetic field, ultrasound, and denosumab combined with other methods.

[0042] A transmission rack 605 is fixedly installed on the surface of the arc-shaped sliding plate 604, and an atomizing nozzle mechanism is fixedly installed on the back of the arc-shaped sliding plate 604. A drive assembly is fixedly installed on the surface of the arc-shaped outer frame 601, and the drive assembly drives the arc-shaped sliding plate 604 to slide in the sliding groove 603.

[0045] A medicine storage tank is provided on one inner wall of the outer shell 606. A water pump 607 is fixedly installed on the surface of the outer shell 606. The input end of the water pump 607 is connected to the medicine storage tank, and the output end of the water pump 607 is connected to the atomizing nozzle mechanism through a conduit.
[0046] It is worth noting that denosumab is administered once every six months, and the external control module can be set to remind you of the next injection time.
[0047] In this invention, when used, it is for the treatment of lumbar osteoporosis:
[0048] The patient lies on the support mattress board 2, adjusts his / her position so that the lumbar spine is directly facing the drug delivery module 6, the electromagnetic field generation module 5 and the ultrasound generation module 4;
[0049] Treatment parameters are set via the touchscreen display of the interactive module: drug delivery dose is 2ml, electromagnetic field frequency is 50Hz, intensity is 5mT, and ultrasound frequency is 1MHz with intensity of 1.5W / cm². 2 The treatment time is set to 30 minutes;
[0050] After receiving the treatment parameters, the external control module starts the drive cylinder 301. The output shaft of the drive cylinder 301 pushes the slider 303 to slide in the limit groove 101, which drives the L-shaped adjustment plate 302, the transmission plate 306 and the modules installed on the transmission plate 306 to move, so that each module is accurately positioned to the patient's lumbar spine treatment site. Then, the motor A304 starts and drives the transmission plate 306 up and down through the threaded rod 305 to further adjust to the appropriate position.
[0051] It is worth noting that the transmission component 3 is not limited to the above structure. It can be designed with a structure with directional wheels, which facilitates flexible movement and allows the drug delivery module 6, electromagnetic field generation module 5, and ultrasonic wave generation module 4 to be removed and used separately, making it convenient for home use.
[0052] The external control module starts motor B608, which drives transmission gear A609 to rotate. Transmission gear A609 meshes with transmission gear B612, causing rotating rod 611 to rotate, which in turn drives transmission gear B612 to rotate. Transmission gear B612 meshes with transmission rack 605, pushing arc-shaped sliding plate 604 to slide in sliding groove 603, causing the atomizing nozzle mechanism to move within a certain range. At the same time, water pump 607 is started, delivering denosumab solution from the drug storage tank to the atomizing nozzle mechanism through a conduit. The atomizing nozzle mechanism sprays the solution evenly onto the patient's lumbar spine skin surface.
[0053] The external control module activates the electromagnetic field generating module 5, which generates an electromagnetic field with a frequency of 50Hz and an intensity of 5mT. Guided by a magnetic sheet, the electromagnetic field acts on the patient's lumbar vertebral bone tissue to regulate the physiological function of bone cells.
[0054] The control module activates the ultrasonic generator module 4, and the ultrasonic transducer array generates an ultrasonic wave with a frequency of 1MHz and an intensity of 1.5W / cm². 2 The ultrasound waves utilize the mechanical, thermal, and cavitation effects of ultrasound to enhance the transdermal absorption of denosumab solution and promote local blood circulation.
[0055] During treatment, the control module monitors the working status and treatment parameters of each module in real time, such as the remaining amount of medicine, electromagnetic field strength, and ultrasonic frequency. If any abnormality is detected, such as blockage of medicine delivery or electromagnetic field or ultrasonic parameters exceeding the safe range, the control module will immediately make automatic adjustments or issue an alarm.
[0056] After the treatment time is over, the external control module stops all modules from working, and the interactive module displays a message indicating that the treatment is complete.
