Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of unilateral spatial neglect treatment devices, and particularly to a posture sensing device for unilateral spatial neglect treatment. Background Technology

[0002] Unilateral neglect, also known as unilateral inattention or unilateral spatial neglect, is one of the most common cognitive impairments following brain injury, especially stroke. Patients have normal visual field but cannot respond to combinations of stimuli within their normal visual field. For example, patients cannot "see" or reproduce the spatial environment on the side opposite the injury; when walking, they only see buildings on one side and ignore buildings on the other side, or ignore limbs on the side opposite the brain injury, or their body tilts to the healthy side, etc.

[0003] Currently, unilateral spatial neglect treatment devices utilize adjustable-angle touchscreen displays. Patients face the display and follow the treatment plan shown, such as the Schenkenberg equal segment test: three sets of parallel line segments are drawn on a 26cm x 20cm sheet of paper, six in each set, with lengths of 10cm, 12cm, 14cm, 16cm, and 18cm respectively. A 15cm line segment is drawn at the top and bottom as a demonstration. Patients mark the midpoint of each line segment using a touch bar or finger (only one mark per segment). Treatment is assessed based on the patient's actions. During the assessment, the patient needs to maintain a standard posture to ensure accuracy. However, current methods often rely on visual assessment, which cannot accurately reflect the patient's posture during the assessment, thus affecting the accuracy of unilateral spatial neglect treatment.

[0027] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of this application. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this application from the content disclosed in this specification. This application can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this application. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0028] The specific implementation methods of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0029] This application provides a posture sensing device for unilateral spatial neglect treatment, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the posture sensing device for unilateral spatial neglect treatment includes a first wearable component 100, a head posture detection sensor 200, a second wearable component 300, a torso posture detection sensor 400, a signal processing module 500, and an alarm module 600. The head posture detection sensor 100 is disposed on the first wearable component 200, which is used to fix the head posture detection sensor 200 to the forehead. The torso posture detection sensor 400 is disposed on the second wearable component 300, which is used to fix the torso posture detection sensor 400 to the waist. The first wearable component 100 includes a first mounting housing 1. The first mounting housing 101 and the first binding strap 102 are included. The head posture detection sensor 200 is mounted on the first mounting housing 101, and the first binding strap 102 is fixed to the first mounting housing 201. The second wearable component 300 includes the second mounting housing 301 and the second binding strap 302. The torso posture detection sensor 400 is mounted on the second mounting housing 301, and the second binding strap 302 is fixed to the second mounting housing 301. The signal output terminals of the head posture detection sensor 200 and the torso posture detection sensor 400 are connected to the signal input terminal of the signal processing module 500, and the signal output terminal of the signal processing module 500 is connected to the signal input terminal of the alarm module 600.

[0030] In this embodiment, as Figure 2The diagram shows the first wearable component 100 and the second wearable component 300 worn on corresponding parts of the patient's body. The head posture detection sensor 200 and the trunk posture detection sensor 400 are used to detect the patient's head posture signal and trunk posture signal. Based on the standard posture in the unilateral spatial neglect treatment plan, a standard head posture and a standard trunk posture are determined. After acquiring the head posture signal and trunk posture signal fed by the head posture detection sensor 200 and the trunk posture detection sensor 400, the signal processing module 500 compares them with the standard head posture and standard trunk posture. If any posture signal is outside the range of the standard head posture and standard trunk posture, the control alarm module 600 issues an alarm to remind the patient of the abnormal posture and the need for posture adjustment to ensure the effective implementation of the unilateral spatial neglect treatment.

[0031] For example, such as Figure 3 The diagram illustrates a unilateral spatial neglect treatment scenario. In this scenario, a ground marking line A is set on the ground, corresponding to the layout of the treatment chair B, used to mark the patient's posture. The treatment chair B is placed at a distance from the display device C determined according to the treatment plan. In this unilateral spatial neglect treatment scenario, the patient's standard posture is that the center of the patient's eyes is aligned with the center of the display screen on display device C. In this scenario, both the head posture detection sensor 200 and the torso posture detection sensor 400 can be angle sensors. In the standard posture, the head and torso should be directly facing the display C, and the angle signal collected by the head posture detection sensor 200 and the torso posture detection sensor 400 should be 0 degrees. A standard for judging standard head and torso postures can be set as whether the angle is within a threshold range of 0 ± a degrees, where a is an error threshold. Then, during treatment, the patient's posture can be detected in real time by the signals collected by the head posture detection sensor 200 and the torso posture detection sensor 400. If the patient is in an abnormal state (i.e. not in a standard posture), the alarm module 600 will sound an alarm, prompting the patient to adjust their posture and undergo a re-evaluation of the treatment, thereby ensuring the effectiveness and accuracy of the treatment.

[0032] It should be noted that the signal processing module 500 is a commercially available module. This module is used to receive and process data. Common electronic components that can serve as the signal processing module 500 include microcontrollers and processors. In some embodiments, the signal processing module 500 can be integrated with the alarm module 600. Of course, in some embodiments, the chip processor built into an existing unilateral space neglect treatment device can also be used as the signal processing module 500.

[0033] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4As shown, the alarm module 600 includes a speaker 601, which is used to play a set voice according to the control signal of the signal processing module 500.

[0034] For example, the set voice includes three voices. The signal processing module 500 uses the head posture detection sensor 200 and the trunk posture detection sensor 400 to detect the patient's head posture signal and trunk posture signal, and determines that the current patient's head posture is abnormal and the trunk posture is normal, then plays the first voice, the content of which can be, for example, "Head posture is abnormal, please adjust your head posture".

[0035] The signal processing module 500 uses the head posture detection sensor 200 and the trunk posture detection sensor 400 to detect the patient's head posture signal and trunk posture signal. If it determines that the patient's current trunk posture is abnormal and the head posture is normal, then it plays a second voice message. The content of the second voice message could be, for example, "Tortoise posture is abnormal, please adjust your trunk posture."

[0036] The signal processing module 500 uses the head posture detection sensor 200 and the trunk posture detection sensor 400 to detect the patient's head posture signal and trunk posture signal. If it determines that the current patient's trunk posture and head posture are both abnormal, then it plays a third voice message. The content of the third voice message can be, for example, "Truncal posture and head posture are abnormal. Please adjust your trunk posture and head posture."

[0037] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the alarm module 600 includes a first indicator light 602 and a second indicator light 603; the signal output terminal of the signal processing module 500 is connected to the signal input terminal of the first indicator light 602 and the second indicator light 603. The signal processing module 500 is used to control the first indicator light 602 to turn on when it determines that the head posture signal fed by the head posture detection sensor is abnormal, and to control the second indicator light 603 to turn on when it determines that the torso posture signal fed by the torso posture detection sensor is abnormal.

[0038] In this embodiment, the first indicator light 602 and the second indicator light 603 can be lights of different colors, such as yellow and red. When activated, the first indicator light 602 and the second indicator light 603 can be constantly lit or flashing to promptly alert to abnormal posture. Furthermore, the first indicator light 602 and the second indicator light 603, together with the speaker 601, can form an alarm module 600, resulting in an alarm module 600 that provides both audible and visual alarms.

[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the signal output terminals of the head posture detection sensor 200 and the torso posture detection sensor 400 are connected to the signal input terminal of the signal processing module 500 via the wireless transmission module 700.

[0040] In this embodiment, the head posture detection sensor 200 and the torso posture detection sensor 400 can be wireless sensors, that is, both the head posture detection sensor 200 and the torso posture detection sensor 400 have a built-in wireless transmission module, and the signal processing module 500 also has a built-in wireless transmission module, using wireless communication to reduce the interference of wiring to the patient's treatment.

[0041] For example, the wireless transmission module can be a 4G module, a 5G module, a Bluetooth module, or a WiFi module.

[0042] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, the posture sensing device for unilateral spatial neglect treatment also includes a height lifting component 800, a tilt adjustment component 900, and a display component 1000; wherein, one end of the height lifting component 800 is connected to the tilt adjustment component 900, the display component 1000 is fixed on the tilt adjustment component 1000, and the alarm module 600 is disposed on the upper end of the display component 1000.

[0043] This embodiment aims to provide an example of an installation location for the alarm module 600. The height adjustment component 800 can be a common monitor telescopic bracket, the tilt adjustment component 900 can be a monitor swivel bracket, and the display component 1000 can be a touch monitor. All three components—height adjustment component 800, tilt adjustment component 900, and display component 1000—can utilize existing related equipment. This embodiment does not provide a detailed description of the structure of the height adjustment component 800, tilt adjustment component 900, and display component 1000.

[0044] The advantage of placing the alarm module 600 at the top of the display component 1000 is that when the patient is receiving treatment, they are facing the display component 1000. Therefore, if their posture becomes abnormal, they can obtain relevant warning information through the alarm module 600 and actively adjust their posture until the alarm module 600 stops alarming.

[0045] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate this application and are not intended to limit this application. Those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of this application. Therefore, all equivalent technical solutions also fall within the scope of this application, and the patent protection scope of this application should be defined by the claims.
