Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of human balance ability testing technology, specifically to a method and system for evaluating balance function sub-items based on the physical limitations of ankle and hip joint degrees of freedom. Background Technology

[0002] In maintaining standing stability, the central nervous system integrates and analyzes sensory information from multiple sources and issues corresponding motor commands. The motor system then controls postural changes according to these commands using different coordinated movement patterns, adjusting the body's center of gravity to return to a stable range. Specifically, the human body can be simplified as a rigid connected body, including the ankle, knee, and hip joints. The postural adjustment process is also correspondingly divided into three independent characteristic modes: the ankle mode, the knee mode, and the hip mode. Andrzej et al., however, removed the knee joint's motor component, dividing the human balance process into ankle joint control strategies, hip joint control strategies, and stepping control strategies. When the human body is standing and there is no or minimal external disturbance, balance is primarily maintained by dorsiflexion or plantarflexion of the ankle joint; this balance control strategy is called the ankle joint control strategy. When subjected to greater external disturbance, ankle joint adjustments alone are insufficient to maintain stability. In this case, a combination of ankle and hip joint movements is used to adjust the body's center of gravity and maintain balance. When the external disturbance increases further, even ankle and hip joint movements are insufficient to maintain balance, a stepping control process is added. This involves quickly stepping or jumping in the direction of the body's tilt to regain a stable support surface and prevent falls. Figure 1 As shown in Figures (a), (b), and (c), while existing research has proposed three joint balance strategies, it lacks relevant studies on the sub-item assessment of ankle and hip joint balance function. This invention is the first to propose a sub-item assessment method for joint balance function, which is expected to evaluate the sub-item contributions of the hip and ankle joints to postural balance. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method and system for assessing balance function based on the physical limitations of ankle and hip joint degrees of freedom. The main technical problem to be solved is that there is currently no technology for assessing balance function, which affects the assessment of balance function.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: This application provides a method for assessing balance function sub-items based on the physical limitations of ankle and hip joint degrees of freedom, including: The ankle and hip joints of the human body are subjected to individual degree-of-freedom constraint combinations to obtain a set of individual degree-of-freedom constraint combinations. The set of individual degree-of-freedom constraint combinations is analyzed to select effective individual degree-of-freedom constraint combinations. For the selected effective combinations of individual degrees of freedom constraints, corresponding individual degrees of freedom constraints are imposed, and perturbation balance recovery tests are conducted to obtain perturbation balance recovery test information. Based on the information from the perturbation balance recovery test, the balance function of the ankle and hip joints is analyzed and evaluated.

[0005] Another aspect of this application provides a balance function sub-assessment system based on the physical restriction of ankle and hip joint degrees of freedom, including an ankle joint degree of freedom restriction wearing module, a hip joint degree of freedom restriction wearing module, and a plantar perturbation platform; The ankle joint freedom restriction wearable module includes a calf tube and a footrest, which are hinged together. The footrest is equipped with a force measuring unit for measuring the pressure signal at the center of pressure on the sole of the foot.

The hip joint sagittal plane degree of freedom limiting wearable module includes an upper torso sleeve and a thigh sleeve, which are hinged together; a sagittal plane degree of freedom limiting module is provided between the upper torso sleeve and the thigh sleeve. The hip joint coronal plane degree of freedom restriction wearable module includes an upper trunk back plate and a lower limb back plate, which are flexibly connected.

A coronal plane degree-of-freedom limiting module is provided between the upper trunk dorsal plate and the lower limb dorsal plate; The plantar disturbance platform provides rapid displacement in at least two directions to disrupt the balance of a person standing on the plantar disturbance platform.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are as follows: This application assesses the independent contribution of the ankle / hip joint to balance function through a physical constraint module; accurately calculates sagittal / coronal joint control scores based on nine effective biomechanical combinations; generates a joint-specific balance ability index (0-1 points) using plantar pressure center (CoP) dynamic data; identifies joint weak planes to guide precise rehabilitation; and integrates wearable constraint devices, multi-directional perturbation platforms, and DBR algorithms to achieve integrated assessment.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-7A method for assessing balance function based on the physical limitations of ankle and hip joint degrees of freedom includes: Step 1: Perform individual degree-of-freedom constraint combinations on the ankle and hip joints of the human body to obtain a set of individual degree-of-freedom constraint combinations. Analyze the set of individual degree-of-freedom constraint combinations and select the effective individual degree-of-freedom constraint combinations. Step 2: For the selected effective combinations of individual degrees of freedom, impose corresponding individual degrees of freedom restrictions and conduct perturbation balance recovery tests to obtain perturbation balance recovery test information. Step 3: Based on the disturbance balance recovery test information, analyze and evaluate the balance function of the ankle and hip joints.

[0022] In one exemplary embodiment, a method for obtaining a set of combinations of restricted degrees of freedom by performing individual degree-of-freedom constraints on the ankle and hip joints of a human body includes: The degrees of freedom of the ankle and hip joints in the human body are analyzed to determine the types of degrees of freedom of the ankle and hip joints, including sagittal plane degrees of freedom, coronal plane degrees of freedom, unlimited degrees of freedom, and no degrees of freedom, respectively. The degrees of freedom types of the ankle and hip joints are randomly combined to form a set of partial degree-of-freedom constraint combinations, which includes 16 types of degree-of-freedom constraint combinations.

[0023] Specifically, the hip joint, as the largest ball-and-socket joint in the human body, has a wide range of freedom (flexion / extension, adduction / abduction, internal rotation / external rotation), a large range of motion, high load-bearing capacity, and strong coupling between degrees of freedom. Therefore, considering the numerous and complex degrees of freedom of the hip joint, the design of the hip joint wearable module mainly considers the interference of degrees of freedom in the sagittal and coronal planes, and there are four scenarios: First, the hip joint wearable module realizes only the sagittal rotational degree of freedom; second, only the coronal plane degree of freedom; third, the hip joint wearable module is removed, and no degree of freedom is restricted; fourth, all degrees of freedom are restricted.

[0024] The ankle joint is generally considered to have three degrees of freedom: Dorsiflexion / plantarflexion: The most important and largest range of motion (sagittal plane).

[0025] Inversion / outversion: Secondary movement (coronal plane).

[0026] Internal rotation / external rotation: Minimal amplitude, often accompanied by dorsiflexion and plantarflexion (horizontal plane).

[0027] Therefore, considering the interference of degrees of freedom in the sagittal and coronal planes, the ankle joint wearable module is designed with four cases: first, only the sagittal rotational degree of freedom; second, only the coronal degree of freedom; third, the ankle joint wearable module is removed, and no degree of freedom is restricted; fourth, all degrees of freedom are restricted.

[0028] In summary, there are 16 possible combinations of ankle and hip joint degrees of freedom, but only 9 of them conform to the laws of motion, as shown in Table 1.

[0029] Table 1. Combination Types of Ankle and Hip Joint Degree of Freedom Restriction Assume that the duration of balance recovery (DBR) under sagittal perturbation is A, and the 8 effective forms of DBR are A1-A6. Assume that the DBR under coronal perturbation is B, and the 8 effective forms of DBR are B1-B5.

[0030] In an exemplary embodiment, the method for analyzing a set of combinations of partial degrees of freedom constraints and selecting effective combinations of partial degrees of freedom constraints includes listing the set of combinations of partial degrees of freedom constraints, filtering out combinations of degrees of freedom constraints that do not conform to the laws of motion, and obtaining effective combinations of partial degrees of freedom constraints.

[0031] In one exemplary embodiment, the method for performing a disturbance balance recovery test and obtaining disturbance balance recovery test information includes, After the human body to be evaluated is subject to the corresponding individual degrees of freedom restrictions, a perturbation test is performed while standing to obtain perturbation balance recovery test information, which includes the pressure signal of the sole of the foot under the effective combination of individual degree of freedom restrictions.

[0032] In one exemplary embodiment, a method for analyzing and evaluating the balance function of the ankle and hip joints of a human body based on perturbation balance recovery test information includes, Obtain a dataset of pressure signals at the center of the foot under perturbed conditions with a combination of effective partial degrees of freedom constraints. Each pressure center pressure signal (COP signal) in the pressure center pressure signal dataset is processed and analyzed to extract the corresponding equilibrium recovery time (DBR) and obtain the equilibrium recovery time dataset. Based on the aforementioned balance recovery time dataset, a balance function sub-assessment model with physical constraints on ankle and hip joint degrees of freedom is constructed, and the balance function of the ankle and hip joints is calculated and assessed based on this model.

[0033] In an exemplary embodiment, the balance function sub-evaluation model for the physical limitation of ankle and hip joint degrees of freedom includes an ankle joint scoring model, a hip joint scoring model, an ankle joint sagittal plane scoring model, an ankle joint coronal plane scoring model, a hip joint sagittal plane scoring model, a hip joint coronal plane scoring model, an ankle and hip joint sagittal plane scoring model, and an ankle and hip joint coronal plane scoring model.

[0034] In an exemplary embodiment, let A1 and B1 be the balance recovery time under sagittal plane perturbation and the balance recovery time under coronal plane perturbation, respectively, when the ankle and hip joints of the human body are not restricted in their degrees of freedom. With the ankle joint having no restricted degrees of freedom and the hip joint having no restricted degrees of freedom, the measured balance recovery time under sagittal plane perturbation and the balance recovery time under coronal plane perturbation are A2 and B2, respectively. With the ankle joint restricted to no degrees of freedom and the hip joint unrestricted, the measured balance recovery time under sagittal perturbation and coronal perturbation are A3 and B3, respectively. With the ankle joint restricted to no degrees of freedom and the hip joint restricted to only sagittal plane degrees of freedom, the measured balance recovery time under sagittal plane perturbation is A4. With the ankle joint restricted to no degrees of freedom and the hip joint restricted to only coronal plane degrees of freedom, the measured balance recovery time under coronal plane perturbation is B4. With the ankle joint restricted to only sagittal plane degrees of freedom and the hip joint restricted to no degrees of freedom, the measured balance recovery time under sagittal plane perturbation is A5. With the ankle joint and hip joint restricted to only sagittal plane degrees of freedom, the measured balance recovery time under sagittal plane perturbation is A6. With the ankle joint restricted to sagittal plane degrees of freedom and the hip joint restricted to no degrees of freedom, the measured balance recovery time under coronal plane perturbation is B5. With the ankle joint and hip joint restricted to only coronal plane degrees of freedom, the measured balance recovery time under coronal plane perturbation is B6. The assessment model for balance function sub-item of the physical restriction of ankle and hip joint degrees of freedom is as follows: Ankle score = 100 * (A2 + B2) / (A1 + B1); Hip score = 100 * (A3 + B3) / (A1 + B1); Ankle sagittal plane score = 100 * A5 / A2; Ankle coronal plane score = 100 * B5 / B2; Hip joint sagittal plane score = 100 * A4 / A3; Hip coronal plane score = 100 * B4 / B3; Ankle-hip joint sagittal plane score = 100 * A6 / A1; Ankle-hip joint coronal plane score = 100 * B6 / B1.

[0035] In one exemplary embodiment, the method further includes constructing a comprehensive human balance ability assessment model based on the balance functions of the ankle and hip joints; the method for constructing the comprehensive human balance ability assessment model is as follows: Tests were conducted on individuals with different balance abilities to obtain test data, and the overall balance ability of the human body was scored manually. Based on test data and human scoring of overall human balance ability, a regression coefficient of each sub-item's balance ability on the overall human balance ability is calculated through multiple linear regression analysis. The absolute value of the regression coefficient is used as the weight to construct an assessment model of overall human balance ability.

[0036] Another embodiment of this application provides a balance function sub-assessment system based on the physical restriction of ankle and hip joint degrees of freedom, including an ankle joint degree of freedom restriction wearing module 100, a hip joint degree of freedom restriction wearing module, and a plantar perturbation platform; The ankle joint freedom restriction wearable module 100 includes a calf tube and a foot support, which are hinged together. The foot support is provided with a force measuring unit for measuring the pressure signal at the center of pressure on the sole of the foot. In an exemplary embodiment, the force measuring unit 30 is a force measuring plate.

[0037] The lower leg tube and the foot support are respectively provided with a sagittal plane degree of freedom limiting module and a coronal plane degree of freedom limiting module (not shown in the figure), which correspond to the sagittal plane rotation axis 10 and the coronal plane rotation axis 20; The hip joint degree of freedom restriction wearable module includes a hip joint sagittal plane degree of freedom restriction wearable module 200 for restricting the hip joint sagittal plane degree of freedom, and a hip joint coronal plane degree of freedom restriction wearable module 300 for restricting the hip joint coronal plane degree of freedom. The hip joint sagittal plane degree of freedom restriction wearable module includes an upper trunk sleeve and a thigh sleeve, which are hinged together; a sagittal plane degree of freedom restriction module (not shown in the figure) is provided between the upper trunk sleeve and the thigh sleeve, corresponding to the sagittal plane rotation axis 10. The hip joint coronal plane degree of freedom restriction wearable module 300 includes an upper trunk back plate and a lower limb back plate, which are flexibly connected. An upper trunk restraint strap is provided on the upper trunk back plate, and a corresponding thigh restraint strap is provided on the lower limb back plate. A coronal plane degree-of-freedom limiting module (not shown in the figure) is provided between the upper trunk dorsal plate and the lower limb dorsal plate, corresponding to the coronal plane rotation axis 20; The plantar disturbance platform provides rapid displacement in at least two directions to disrupt the balance of a person standing on the plantar disturbance platform.
