Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a portable self-testing device for early screening of diabetic foot. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, the incidence of diabetic foot has increased significantly along with the rising prevalence of diabetes; globally, approximately 15%-25% of diabetic patients will develop diabetic foot. Existing detection technologies (such as infrared thermal imaging and plantar pressure analyzers) have the following problems:

[0003] The equipment is expensive and requires professional personnel, making it difficult to popularize in primary healthcare institutions or homes;

[0004] The operation is complicated and cannot meet the daily self-examination needs of patients;

[0005] Its large size makes portable monitoring impossible.

[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a low-cost, easy-to-operate, and home-use self-examination device for diabetic foot. Utility Model Content

[0007] To address the problems of expensive equipment, complex operation, and poor portability in existing technologies, this invention provides a portable self-testing stick that integrates multiple sensors, which can monitor foot temperature, pulse intensity, and blood flow changes in real time.

[0008] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution: A portable self-testing stick for diabetic foot, characterized in that the self-testing stick includes a banana-shaped outer shell, which is formed by two symmetrical half-shells interlocking, and both ends of the outer shell are clamped together; the outer shell contains a charging interface, a battery, a display screen, a main control chip, a pressure sensor, a photoelectric sensor, and a control switch; a temperature measuring window is provided on one end face of the outer shell, and a lens and an infrared temperature sensor are provided in the temperature measuring window; the charging interface is located on the other end face of the outer shell; the display screen is embedded in the middle of the outer side of the outer shell, and a protruding mounting part is provided on the inner side of the outer shell, where the photoelectric sensor and the pressure sensor are located; a fixing ring is fixed on both clamps, and an elastic band is provided between the two fixing rings; the battery is used to power the display screen, the main control chip, the infrared temperature sensor, the pressure sensor, and the photoelectric sensor; the charging interface is a TPC interface, which can be connected to a power source to charge the battery; the main control chip is used to process the data measured by the infrared temperature sensor, the pressure sensor, and the photoelectric sensor and transmit it to the display screen.

[0009] Preferably, the control switch includes a first control switch and a second control switch, wherein the first control switch independently turns the infrared temperature sensor on and off, and the second control switch independently turns the photoelectric sensor and the pressure sensor on and off.

[0010] Preferably, the pressure sensor is a MEMS micro-sensor, and the display screen is a micro OLED display screen.

[0011] The advantages of this utility model are:

[0012] 1. Low cost and easy to popularize: It adopts miniature sensors and integrated design, resulting in low production costs and making it suitable for large-scale promotion; moreover, its compact structure makes it easy to carry.

[0013] 2. Easy to operate: Patients can independently perform self-testing of foot temperature, pulse and blood flow without professional guidance;

[0014] 3. Long charging cycle and service life: Built-in independent first and second control switches control the instantaneous temperature acquisition and the blood flow and pulse pressure monitoring that require long-term monitoring separately, so as to achieve independent start and stop, save energy, and thus extend the charging cycle and service life of this probe.

[0015] 4. Precise fit: The banana-shaped shell and elastic band design adapt to different foot shapes, improving measurement accuracy. Attached Figure Description
