Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical monitoring technology, specifically to an intelligent cardiovascular nursing monitoring system and method. Background Technology
[0002] Cardiovascular diseases, especially acute myocardial infarction, cardiogenic shock, and severe myocarditis, are characterized by rapid onset, rapidly changing condition, and extremely high mortality. In the intensive care unit (ICU), continuous and accurate physiological monitoring of patients is a crucial aspect of clinical treatment. Currently, clinical practice mainly relies on bedside multi-parameter monitors to monitor patients' basic vital signs in real time, including heart rate, electrocardiogram waveform, blood pressure, and body temperature.
[0003] However, current cardiovascular monitoring models suffer from a lack of comprehensive multi-dimensional assessment capabilities due to their simplistic information processing approach. Existing monitors typically employ a "single-parameter threshold alarm" mode, where separate upper and lower limits are set for various physiological indicators such as heart rate and blood pressure. An alarm is triggered when a parameter exceeds the preset range. This approach severs the intrinsic connections between different physiological indicators, while the pathophysiological changes in critically ill patients are often the result of multiple systems and factors working together. For example, it is not uncommon for blood pressure to remain within the normal range while tissue perfusion is severely inadequate (manifested as a decreased perfusion index or increased peripheral temperature difference). Relying solely on blood pressure alarms can easily lead to missed risks. Furthermore, current alarm systems often only issue alerts when indicators have deteriorated to the threshold, by which time the patient may have already entered the decompensated stage, missing the optimal window for early intervention. In addition, single-parameter threshold alarms are prone to generating numerous false positives due to patient activity or momentary interference, leading to habitual disregard by healthcare staff and creating potential safety hazards.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an intelligent cardiovascular nursing monitoring system and method that can integrate multi-dimensional physiological parameters, has a forward-looking early warning capability, and can effectively reduce the false positive alarm rate. Summary of the Invention

[0017] in, Indicates microcirculation assessment indicators; Indicates the basal perfusion index; Indicates the peripheral tissue perfusion index; This indicates the difference between core temperature and peripheral skin temperature. For intubated patients, the core temperature is esophageal temperature, and for patients with indwelling urinary catheters, it is bladder temperature. Indicates the maximum clinically permissible temperature difference; and Represents the weight coefficient and .
[0018] Furthermore, based on the historical values of the first comprehensive evaluation index, the expression for the second comprehensive evaluation index is obtained through prediction as follows:

[0027] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This invention uses a multi-parameter monitor to collect real-time physiological data from critically ill patients, including cardiac function data, blood flow data, and microcirculation data. Based on these three types of data, cardiac function assessment indicators, blood flow assessment indicators, and microcirculation assessment indicators are calculated.

[0032] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0033] This invention provides the following technical solutions: like Figure 1 The intelligent cardiovascular nursing monitoring system shown includes a data acquisition module, a multimodal monitoring module, and an intelligent early warning module; The data acquisition module is used to collect the patient's physiological data, which includes cardiac function data, blood flow data, and microcirculation data. The multimodal monitoring module includes a cardiac function monitoring unit, a blood flow monitoring unit, and a circulation monitoring unit. The cardiac function monitoring unit obtains cardiac function assessment indicators based on the cardiac function data, the blood flow monitoring unit obtains blood flow assessment indicators based on the blood flow data, and the circulation monitoring unit obtains microcirculation assessment indicators based on the microcirculation data. The multimodal monitoring module weights and sums the cardiac function assessment indicators, blood flow assessment indicators, and microcirculation assessment indicators to obtain a first comprehensive assessment indicator. The intelligent early warning module predicts a second comprehensive evaluation index based on the historical values of the first comprehensive evaluation index, and issues an early warning based on the second comprehensive evaluation index.
[0034] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the cardiac function data is obtained by a multi-parameter monitor, and the cardiac function data includes the patient's real-time heart rate, electrocardiogram ST segment deviation, and number of premature atrial contractions.
[0035] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the blood flow data is obtained by a multi-parameter monitor, and the blood flow data includes the patient's real-time systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and mean arterial pressure.
[0036] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the microcirculation data is obtained by a multi-parameter monitor, and the microcirculation data includes the patient's real-time peripheral tissue perfusion index and skin temperature.
[0037] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the calculation process of the cardiac function assessment index includes the following steps: Arrhythmia index is calculated based on the patient's cardiac function data. Its expression is as follows:
[0038] in, Indicates the patient's basic condition The value was obtained during the stable phase of the patient's condition and served as an individualized reference benchmark. Indicates the patient's real-time The value is measured based on the patient's heartbeat, i.e., the standard deviation of the normal sinus interval; This indicates the number of premature atrial contractions (PACs) in the patient; This indicates the patient's real-time heart rate; and Indicates the weighting coefficient. .
[0039] Arrhythmia Index In the formula, the first term This reflects the degree of decrease in real-time heart rate variability relative to baseline levels. A decrease suggests impaired autonomic nervous system function and an increased risk of arrhythmias. (Second item) This reflects the frequency of premature atrial contractions (PACs) and is calculated by weighting and summing the relative heart rate normalization results in a comprehensive arrhythmia index. Its value range is normalized to The higher the value, the more severe the arrhythmia, providing a quantitative basis for subsequent comprehensive assessment.
[0040] Based on the aforementioned arrhythmia index Calculate cardiac function assessment indicators Its expression is as follows:
[0041] in, This indicates the patient's real-time heart rate; This represents the patient's baseline heart rate, taken from the average value during a stable phase of the disease, and is used to measure the degree of deviation of the heart rate from the baseline. This indicates the ST segment deviation on the patient's electrocardiogram; This indicates the maximum permissible ST segment deviation on an electrocardiogram (ECG). Indicates the arrhythmia index; , and Represents the weight coefficient and .
[0042] Cardiac function assessment indicators In the formula, the first term measures the abnormal increase or decrease in real-time heart rate relative to baseline heart rate; both excessively fast and slow heart rates lead to an increased value. The second term quantifies the severity of ST segment deviation. The third term introduces an arrhythmia index. The weighted sum of these three terms yields the cardiac function index. The range of values is normalized to The higher the value, the worse the cardiac function, thus providing a quantitative basis for subsequent multi-dimensional comprehensive assessment.
[0043] When the heart rate increases, myocardial oxygen consumption increases and diastolic filling time is shortened, which may induce or aggravate myocardial ischemia. Therefore, ST segment deviation that occurs when the heart rate is significantly elevated often indicates that the heart is overloaded and supply and demand are imbalanced, and the occurrence of acute coronary events should be highly suspected. Conversely, a slow heart rate may also induce ischemia due to reduced coronary perfusion. ST segment deviation when the heart rate is slow is equally important. Any abnormal ST segment deviation is a warning signal of myocardial ischemia in patients.
[0044] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the expression for the blood flow assessment index is as follows:
[0045] in, Indicates blood flow assessment indicators; Indicates real-time mean arterial pressure; Indicates the target mean arterial pressure; Indicates real-time systolic blood pressure; This indicates the lower limit threshold of systolic blood pressure; Indicates real-time diastolic blood pressure; This indicates the lower limit threshold of diastolic blood pressure; , and Represents the weight coefficient and ; Indicates taking the absolute value; This indicates taking the maximum value.
[0046] Blood flow assessment indicators In the formula This reflects the absolute deviation of mean arterial pressure from the target value. Mean arterial pressure is the main driving force of organ perfusion; both excessively low and excessively high mean arterial pressure can lead to organ dysfunction. Simultaneously, excessively low systolic pressure often indicates insufficient cardiac output or decreased peripheral vascular resistance, serving as an important early warning indicator of shock. Excessively low diastolic pressure can directly lead to insufficient myocardial blood supply, inducing or aggravating myocardial ischemia. Through weighted summation... The function will evaluate blood flow indicators The range of values is normalized to A higher value indicates a more unstable hemodynamic state, providing a quantitative basis for subsequent multi-dimensional comprehensive assessment.
[0047] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the expression for the microcirculation evaluation index is as follows:
[0048] in, Indicates microcirculation assessment indicators; Indicates the basal perfusion index; Indicates the peripheral tissue perfusion index; This indicates the difference between core temperature and peripheral skin temperature. For intubated patients, the core temperature is esophageal temperature, and for patients with indwelling urinary catheters, it is bladder temperature. Indicates the maximum clinically permissible temperature difference; and Represents the weight coefficient and .
[0049] Microcirculation assessment indicators In the formula, the first term This reflects the degree of decrease in the real-time perfusion index relative to the baseline level. A decreased perfusion index indicates reduced local tissue blood flow and is an early and sensitive indicator of microcirculatory disturbances; the second item... This reflects the ratio of the central to peripheral temperature difference relative to the clinically permissible maximum. An increased temperature difference is a typical manifestation of compensatory peripheral vasoconstriction under stress, prioritizing blood supply to vital organs. However, an excessively large temperature difference often indicates tissue hypoperfusion and microcirculatory failure. The resulting microcirculatory assessment index is obtained through weighted summation. The range of values is normalized to The larger the value, the more severe the microcirculation disorder, providing a quantitative basis for subsequent multi-dimensional comprehensive assessment.
[0050] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the expression for the second comprehensive evaluation index, which is predicted based on the historical values of the first comprehensive evaluation index, is as follows:
[0051] in, This represents the second comprehensive evaluation indicator; This represents the first comprehensive evaluation indicator; Indicates the preceding The historical values of the first comprehensive evaluation indicator are used within a time window of 5 seconds, with evaluations performed every 5 seconds; the second comprehensive evaluation indicator... When the trend is upward, the predicted value will further amplify the upward trend, indicating that the condition may deteriorate rapidly; when the second comprehensive assessment indicator... When the trend is downward, the predicted value will decrease accordingly, indicating that the condition is stabilizing or improving.
[0052] The first comprehensive evaluation index The expression is as follows:
[0053] in, This represents the first comprehensive evaluation indicator; Indicates indicators for assessing cardiac function; Indicates blood flow assessment indicators; Indicates microcirculation assessment indicators; , and This represents the weighting coefficient.
[0054] As a preferred embodiment of this application, early warning based on the second comprehensive evaluation index includes: when the second comprehensive evaluation index... When the value is greater than or equal to the safety threshold, an early warning is issued; when the second comprehensive evaluation index... No warning will be issued if the value is below the safety threshold.

[0056] S2. Calculate cardiac function assessment indicators based on the physiological data. Blood flow assessment indicators and microcirculation assessment indicators .
