Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of intravenous injection technology, specifically to an extravasation detection device based on a skin deformation sensor. Background Technology

[0002] Extravasation is inevitable during intravenous injection, causing complications such as tissue damage, hematoma, and infection. This is especially true when using high-pressure injectors, where the high flow rate and strong backflow increase the risk of needle deviation, posing a greater danger. Therefore, rapid detection of extravasation facilitates timely medical intervention and prevents adverse events.

[0003] Chinese patent application CN115445025 discloses a method, device, and injection system for detecting extravasation of injectable solutions. The method includes: acquiring impedance information of biological tissue; acquiring information on the change in impedance information relative to a reference impedance value; and determining extravasation information based on the change information. This method can quickly detect extravasation and determine the type and amount of extravasated injection solution. However, this approach uses an excitation electrode to apply an excitation signal to the biological tissue and then calculates the impedance information by collecting the signal from the tissue after stimulation. During high-pressure injection, the patient's arm or the back of their hand already experiences high liquid pressure; applying an excitation signal at this time results in a complex and mixed biological signal received by the measuring device, which is not conducive to accurate measurement of bioimpedance.

[0004] Chinese patent CN113230491B discloses a method and apparatus for detecting contrast agent extravasation in CT scans using a camera and pressure sensor. The apparatus includes a wearable device with a miniature camera, processor unit, data transceiver unit, and casing. Image data captured by the miniature camera is transmitted to a monitoring terminal, where medical personnel visually inspect the images to determine if extravasation is present. This approach relies on the experience of medical personnel and is limited by image transmission accuracy, making it unsuitable for early detection of extravasation.

[0005] Chinese patent CN216022453U discloses a method and apparatus for detecting contrast agent extravasation using an infrared sensor. It monitors extravasation by real-time laser scanning of the injection area and observing changes in skin smoothness. This method involves complex equipment, requiring minimal obstruction between the laser scanning device and the injection area skin, and necessitates a large space constraint.

Detailed Implementation

[0052] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0053] Furthermore, elements in this invention are referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another element, which may be directly on the other element or may also include an intervening element. When an element is considered to be "connected" to another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or may also include an intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementations.

[0054] Please see Figures 1-19 The extravasation detection device based on a skin deformation sensor provided by this invention includes a sensing component 1 that is wirelessly connected to a terminal component 2. The terminal component 2 is a conventional computer terminal or mobile phone terminal. The terminal component 2 is loaded with a control program provided by this invention that matches the extravasation detection device and injection device based on the skin deformation sensor. This program receives signals transmitted wirelessly from the sensing component 1 and the injection device, performs necessary data processing, issues alarms, automatically terminates the injection procedure, or resumes the injection procedure after confirmation by medical personnel.

[0055] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the sensing component 1 includes an extravasation detection patch 110 and a signal component 120. The extravasation detection patch 110 contains a stress-sensing layer 111, and within the stress-sensing layer 111 is a stress-sensing link. This stress-sensing link converts changes in skin tension into changes in electromagnetic signals, which are then fed back as feedback. The extravasation detection patch 110 is made of a flexible material, making it easily deformable under external force. When the extravasation detection patch 110 is applied to the skin around the injection point, if extravasation occurs, the skin at the injection site will abnormally bulge, creating a bump. The skin tension at the bump changes relative to other normal skin areas, causing a corresponding deformation in the stress-sensing layer 111. This deformation enables the stress-sensing link within the patch to generate a corresponding feedback signal.

[0056] The signal component 120 is connected to the stress sensing link inside the patch 110 via the link interface 114 fixed on the patch 110. It receives and processes the feedback information from the stress sensing link in real time, monitors the changes in skin tension within the coverage area of ​​the patch 110, and thus achieves the purpose of detecting extravasation.

[0057] Furthermore, the extravasation detection patch 110 also includes an insulating layer 112 and an adhesive layer 113. The insulating layer 112 is made of a flexible insulating material, covering the upper part of the stress-sensing layer 111 and fixedly connected to the upper surface of the stress-sensing layer 111, serving an insulating function. The line interface at the lower end of the link interface 114 penetrates through the insulating layer 112 and extends into the interior of the stress-sensing layer 111, connecting to the sensing link inside the stress-sensing layer 111. The upper end of the link interface 114 is exposed outside the insulating layer 112 and is detachably connected to the bottom end of the signal component 120. The link interface 114 serves as a bus channel between the stress-sensing link and the signal component 120, and is provided with necessary insulation protection. The adhesive layer 113 is made of a flexible adhesive material, fixedly connected to the lower surface of the stress-sensing layer 111, and has strong adhesive properties. It is used to adhere to the skin around the injection point and deforms with skin tension.

[0058] Furthermore, the extravasation detection patch 110 is a disposable device. When not in use, the extravasation detection patch 110 is sealed in packaging, and a dustproof film 115 is provided under the adhesive layer 113. To use, simply peel off the dustproof film 115 and adhere the extravasation detection patch 110 to the target skin. After use, peel the extravasation detection patch 110 off the skin and discard it into a medical waste bin.

[0059] In this invention, the signal component 120 and the extravasation detection patch 110 are separate components. The signal component 120 internally houses a miniature power module, a signal processing module, a wireless communication module, and an alarm module for signal reception, preliminary data processing, signal transmission, and alarm sending. The signal component 120 is detachably connected to the link interface 114. Because the extravasation detection patch 110 isolates the skin during use, the signal component 120 can be removed from the patch after use and disinfected with anhydrous alcohol for reuse.

[0060] To better illustrate the inventive concept of this application, this invention provides three different stress-sensing links with specific structures for detailed explanation. Example 1

[0061] like Figures 3 to 10 As shown in Embodiment 1 of the present invention, the stress-sensing layer 111 has a multi-layer structure, which is divided into a retaining layer 1110, an uplink layer 1111, and a downlink layer 1112 from top to bottom. The upper surface of the retaining layer 1110 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the insulating layer 112, the lower surface of the retaining layer 1110 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the uplink layer 1111, the lower surface of the uplink layer 1111 is detachably connected to the upper surface of the downlink layer 1112, and the lower surface of the downlink layer 1112 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the adhesive layer 113.

[0062] Specifically, the retaining layer 1110 is made entirely of a soft and insulating colloidal material. Inside the colloidal layer is a memory film capable of retaining deformation. This memory film is made of a material with a certain degree of rigidity and toughness, allowing it to deform under strong external force and maintain that deformation under weaker force. When the extravasation detection patch 110 is applied to the target skin, medical personnel press it firmly. The retaining layer 1110 is pressed from a flat state to its initial state of adhesion to the skin surface and maintains this initial state, without undergoing secondary deformation due to the slight tension of skin bulges. It should be noted that the memory film in the retaining layer only serves to remember the initial deformation; it provides insulation and isolation from the electrical pathways within the upstream link or link interface 114 and does not function as an electrical pathway. Therefore, the memory film can be made of metal to ensure good deformation retention characteristics.

[0063] The uplink layer 1111 and the downlink layer 1112 are both made of a soft and insulating gel material. Uplinks arranged in columns are located inside the gel of the uplink layer 1111, and downlinks arranged in rows are located inside the gel of the downlink layer 1112. The uplinks and downlinks are arranged in a checkerboard pattern with alternating rows and columns. Both the uplinks and downlinks are completely encased in a soft, insulating gel, with adjacent rows and columns insulated from each other. Contacts 1113 are only located at the intersection points for vertical connection. The uplinks, downlinks, and contacts 1113 together form a contact-based matrix sensing link.

[0064] The lower surface of the colloid in the upper link layer 1111 is separably connected to the upper surface of the colloid in the lower link layer 1112. Specifically, the link interface 114 sequentially fixes the colloid region penetrating the insulating layer 112, the protective layer 1110, and the upper link layer 1111, with the lower end of the link interface 114 fixedly connected to the colloid inside the lower link layer 1112. The colloids of the upper link layer 1111 and the lower link layer 1112 are kept in relative contact through the lower end of the link interface 114, and the contact surfaces do not rotate relative to each other in the horizontal direction. Figures 5 to 7 As shown, when medical staff apply the extravasation detection patch 110 to the target skin area and press the extravasation detection patch 110 firmly towards the skin, the upper link layer 1111 and the lower link layer 1112 deform synchronously, and all contacts 1113 remain tightly adhered.

[0065] When extravasation occurs, the skin tension forming the bulge causes the lower link layer 1112 to deform from the center of the bulge outwards and upwards. That is, the lower link layer 1112 expands outwards from the central area of ​​the bulge while simultaneously pushing upwards. At this time, because there is no pressure applied from above by medical personnel, the retaining layer 1110 maintains its initial deformation. The upper link layer 1111 and the lower link layer 1112 are no longer subjected to symmetrical forces and therefore can no longer maintain synchronous deformation, resulting in separation. Figure 8 As shown. The contact points 1113 in the area of ​​skin tension change begin to separate from the outside in, as... Figures 9 to 10 As shown.

[0066] Preferably, the upper and lower links are made of a uniform flexible conductive material, and the resistance of the material changes little under deformation stress. The contact surface diameter of contact 1113 is larger than the path diameter of the upper and lower links, that is, the contact surface resistance of contact 1113 is less than the unit path resistance of the checkerboard formed by the upper and lower links.

[0067] The specific working principle of a matrix circuit is as follows:

[0068] Let the unit path resistance between adjacent contacts 1113 be... If the total number of columns is N and the total number of rows is M, then the total resistance of each column is: Total resistance per row: Voltages are applied to the N columns of the uplink. Voltages are applied to the M-link of the downlink respectively. .

[0069] When all contacts 1113 are tightly closed, the total current in the i-th row is: ,in It is the sum of the current components formed by all column voltages in the i-th row; the total current in the j-th column: ,in It is the sum of the current components formed by each row voltage in the j-th column.

[0070] When contact 1113 in row i and column j separates, the total current in row i becomes ,in It is the sum of the current components formed by the voltages in each column after the separation point in the i-th row; at the same time, the total current in the j-th column becomes ,in It is the sum of the current components formed by the voltages in each column after the separation point on the i-th row.

[0071] By detecting the change in total current in each row and column and comparing it with the initial current base, the specific row and column number of the separation point can be calculated. The spacing between contacts 1113 is a known parameter. Using the spacing parameter between contacts 1113, the skin bulge arc surface of the deformation area can be calculated, and then the volume of the skin bulge and the volume of extravasated fluid can be calculated. Example 2

[0072] like Figures 11 to 15 As shown, in Embodiment 2 of the present invention, the stress sensing layer 111 is a single-layer structure. The stress sensing layer 111 is made of a soft and insulating colloidal material, and a baseline link 1114 and a breakpoint link 1115 are set inside it.

[0073] The baseline link 1114 is made of a uniform flexible conductive material, and the resistance change of this material under deformation stress is small; the break point link 1115 is made of a hard conductive material with a certain rigidity; for example, it is made of a conductive metal with good conductivity and hardness, so that the resistance value of the break point link 1115 per unit length is much smaller than the resistance value of the baseline link 1114 per unit length.

[0074] As Figure 12 shown, the baseline link 1114 is uniformly arranged in a "Ji" - shaped array by a conductive loop, and several rows of break point links 1115 are uniformly horizontally distributed along the longer vertical column of the baseline link 1114. As Figure 13 shown, break points are set on the break point link 1115, and adjacent break point links 1115 are connected end - to - end at the break points; the break points are located at the intersections of the break point link 1115 and the baseline link 1114. At the break points, one end of the break point link 1115 is fixedly connected to the baseline link 1114 at this intersection, and the other end of the break point link 1115 can be freely separated from the baseline link 1114 at this intersection. The baseline link 1114, the break point link 1115 and the break points together form a break - point type matrix induction link.

[0075] When the stress - sensing layer 111 is in a planar state as a whole, adjacent break point links 1115 are in contact and connected. As the stress - sensing layer 111 adheres to the target skin and produces an initial deformation, the adjacent break point links 1115 at the break points start to break and separate. As Figure 14 shown, because the break point link 1115 has a certain cross - sectional thickness, the separation distance between adjacent break point links 1115 is short in the initial state, and there is still some contact, so a conductive path can still be formed; as Figure 15 shown, when an exudate occurs and causes a bulging tension on the skin, the increased deformation of the stress - sensing layer 111 causes the break points to completely break and separate, and also be completely misaligned with the baseline link 1114 at the intersections, and this row of break point links 1115 is completely open - circuited.

[0076] It should be noted that the baseline link 1114 and the break point link 1115 are only electrically connected at the intersections. The part of the baseline link 1114 outside the part directly in contact with the break point link 1115 at the intersections is wrapped by an insulating colloid; the outer periphery of the break point link 1115 column is covered with an insulating film. Therefore, only at the cross - section of the break points is the circuit electrically connected between adjacent break point links 1115.

[0077] Referring to the working principle of the matrix - type circuit, let the resistance of the path per unit length on the baseline link 1114 be , a total of K rows of break point links 1115 are set, and the resistance value of the break point link 1115 can be ignored relative to the resistance value of the baseline link 1114. A baseline voltage is set at one end of the baseline link 1114, and voltages The formulas for calculating the current at each row and column breakpoint are similar to the principle formulas in Example 1, and will not be elaborated further here.

[0078] Based on the principle that current always chooses the path of least resistance in a path, when all breaks are not completely separated, the baseline current only passes through the first baseline and the last baseline column, and the baseline current and the current on each row of breakpoint links 1115 are at their maximum values. When skin bulges cause partial breakage, the baseline current detours around the baseline link 1114 and the current decreases, pointing towards the diagonal breakpoint in the area covered by the breakpoint. The current on the breakpoint link 1115 in the area defined by the diagonal breakpoint decreases or disappears. When all breaks are completely separated, the current on all rows of breakpoint links 1115 is 0, and the baseline current is at its minimum value. The area where the breakpoint is located can be calculated based on the changes in the current on the baseline link 1114 and the breakpoint link 1115. Then, the skin deformation arc surface and the volume of extravasated fluid can be calculated based on the breakpoint area and the unit spacing parameter. Example 3

[0079] like Figures 16 to 18 As shown, in Embodiment 3 of the present invention, the stress sensing layer 111 is a single-layer structure. The stress sensing layer 111 is made of a soft and insulating colloidal material and has a deformation link 1116 inside.

[0080] The deformation link 1116 is made of an electrically sensitive conductive material, the resistance of which changes significantly with stress deformation. At the same time, the deformation link 1116 consists of a conductive path arranged in a "W" shape, forming a serpentine chain-like induction link.

[0081] It should be noted that the overall external shape of the matrix-arranged sensing links can be square, circular, or other suitable shapes, but the rows and columns connected by the current need to be orthogonal, like latitude and longitude lines. The curved surface of the bulge is divided according to the division of latitude and longitude lines. The sensitivity of the sensing links to three-dimensional deformation can be determined based on the division of latitude and longitude lines, the threshold range of current changes with the natural physiological changes of the skin can be excluded, the location of separation points or breakpoints can be located, and then the specific volume of the bulge can be calculated.

[0082] In a serpentine chain-like arrangement, each branch of the induction link is arranged at a certain angle and is not orthogonal to the others. Figure 18 As shown, when extravasation causes skin bulges, changes in skin tension trigger significant three-dimensional deformation of the deformation link 1116, resulting in a noticeable change in current.

[0083] Currently, relatively mature electrical sensitive and conductive materials include, but are not limited to, carbon conductive ink, conductive polymers, metal nanowires or carbon nanotubes, etc. Different specifications of external leakage detection patches can be made by selecting the appropriate materials according to the actual application scenario and processing cost.

[0084] This invention also provides a method for detecting extravasation based on the above-mentioned extravasation detection device, comprising the following steps:

[0085] S1. Preparation: Align the center point of the extravasation detection patch 110 with the injection point and stick it tightly to the skin of the injection area. Install the sterilized signal component 120 on the link interface 114 of the extravasation detection patch 110 and turn on the signal switch to establish a wireless connection with the terminal component 2.

[0086] S2. Initialization: Start the injection control program on terminal component 2, record the stress sensing link current information fed back by signal component 120 before injection, and confirm the current change threshold range for starting and stopping the injection program.
