The term "and / or" used herein includes all or any units and all combinations of one or more associated listed items.

[0049] As mentioned above, although existing technologies have played a certain role in the assessment and treatment of comatose patients, there is a lack of real-time monitoring and timely feedback to the treatment. From the above, it can be seen that how to improve the real-time monitoring of comatose patients during the awakening process remains to be solved.

[0050] To this end, the method for awakening a comatose patient based on EEG signals provided in this application can effectively improve the real-time monitoring of the awakening process of a comatose patient. Accordingly, the method for awakening a comatose patient based on EEG signals is suitable for an awakening device for a comatose patient based on EEG signals, and the awakening device for a comatose patient based on EEG signals can be deployed in an electronic device.

[0051] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the implementation methods of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0052] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of an implementation environment involved in a method for promoting awakening of a comatose patient based on EEG signals. The implementation environment includes a terminal and a server.

[0053] The client provides a function for collecting EEG information, for example, an EEG collection device contacts the patient's scalp through an electrode array or a scalp sensor.

[0054] The server can be a standalone physical server, a server cluster or distributed system consisting of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, CDN, and big data and artificial intelligence platforms. This server is an electronic device used to provide background services. For example, in this implementation, the server provides cloud storage services for the EEG encoding database to the terminal.

[0055] Please refer to Figure 2. An embodiment of the present application provides a method for waking up a comatose patient based on EEG signals. The method is applicable to an electronic device, which may be a server in the implementation environment shown in Figure 1.

[0056] In the following method embodiments, for ease of description, the execution subject of each step of the method is taken as an electronic device as an example for illustration, but this does not constitute a specific limitation.

[0057] As shown in FIG2 , the method may include the following steps:

[0058] S100, obtaining EEG signals from comatose patients;

[0059] Among them, in an embodiment of the present application, when obtaining the EEG signal of a comatose patient, the EEG acquisition equipment can contact the patient's scalp through an electrode array or a scalp sensor to record the electrical activity of the patient's brain, thereby obtaining the EEG signal of the comatose patient; the EEG signal includes the frequency, amplitude, rhythm, etc. of the brain waves.

[0060] It should be pointed out here that when a person is in a coma, there are abnormal signals in the brain waves. Changes in the frequency of brain waves: a coma is often accompanied by changes in the frequency of brain waves, such as an increase in delta waves, which are usually associated with deep sleep or impaired consciousness; changes in the amplitude of brain waves: a coma may manifest as a decrease in the amplitude of brain waves, which reflects a decrease in brain activity; abnormal rhythms: in a coma, the EEG may show abnormal rhythms, such as slow fluctuations or specific patterns of waves, which may be associated with specific types of brain damage or dysfunction.

[0061] S110, obtaining an EEG signal of the comatose patient, obtaining corresponding target feature data based on the EEG signal, retrieving a comparison data set corresponding to the target feature data in a database, and determining the current coma level of the comatose patient based on the comparison data set and the target feature data;

[0062] After obtaining the EEG signal of the comatose patient, it is necessary to convert the corresponding EEG signal into feature data that can be compared, as shown in FIG3 . Therefore, the method further includes:

[0063] S111, preprocessing the EEG signal and performing Fourier transform to obtain a corresponding feature data set;

[0064] The feature data set includes multiple feature data, and the feature data may be one or more of frequency, amplitude, and rhythm.

[0065] S112, acquiring multiple sets of feature data sets based on time changes;

[0066] Among them, in the present application scheme, it is necessary to monitor the comatose patients in real time, so it is necessary to obtain corresponding special data sets for the comatose patients at different time points, so there will be corresponding feature data sets at different time points.

[0067] S113, classifying each feature data in the plurality of feature data sets to obtain a feature data group for each feature data;

[0068] Since there are corresponding feature data sets at different time points, by classifying each feature data in the feature data set, similar feature data in different time periods can be obtained.

[0069] By executing steps S111 to S113, in the process of awakening a comatose patient, the EEG characteristics of the comatose patient at different times can be recorded, and the changing characteristics of different types of EEG characteristics can be understood in the process of continuous time changes, which is more conducive to targeted awakening treatment for comatose patients.

[0070] In the process of determining the coma degree of a comatose patient by comparing target feature data, the specific process is as follows:

[0071] As mentioned above, the EEG characteristics associated with coma primarily include changes in EEG frequency, amplitude, and rhythm. These characteristics have a significant impact on subsequent control because they directly reflect the brain's activity and function. Changes in EEG frequency are particularly important, as different EEG frequencies are associated with different brain activity states.

[0072] During the analysis process, the accuracy of feature data comparison is affected by many factors, including the quality of the model and database used. Currently, EEG signal analysis generally adopts deep learning technologies, such as convolutional neural networks (CNN) and recurrent neural networks (RNN). These technologies can automatically extract data features for classification and improve the performance of the model as the amount of data increases. The process of comparing feature data usually involves comparing the individual's EEG signal with the standard signal stored in the database. These databases may include EEG signal datasets of different sleep stages, such as Sleep-EDF or SHHS.

[0073] Coma assessment: The most commonly used method for coma assessment is the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS). This is a tool used to assess a patient's level of consciousness and is widely used in clinical practice. The GCS scale includes three assessment items: eye opening response, verbal response, and motor response on the non-hemiplegic side. The maximum total score is 15 points, with higher scores indicating milder conditions and lower scores indicating more severe conditions. A GCS score of 3-8 indicates severe head trauma requiring drainage; a GCS score of 9-12 indicates moderate head trauma, and a GCS score of 13-15 indicates mild head trauma.

[0074] The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) is primarily used in patients with varying degrees of coma after stroke, craniocerebral surgery, and other causes. Limitations of this scoring system include not incorporating brainstem reflexes, being unsuitable for alcoholics, and being inappropriate for patients taking sleeping pills. The goal is to analyze the correlation between EEG features and the GCS to determine the patient's coma status.

[0075] In the method for determining the current coma degree of a comatose patient based on comparing the data set with the target feature data, as shown in FIG4 , the method further includes:

[0076] S114, acquiring corresponding target feature data based on time changes.

[0077] S115, recording the current coma degree of the comatose patient in different time periods based on the multiple target feature data, and obtaining a corresponding coma degree set;

[0078] Among them, during the awakening treatment process for comatose patients, the coma degree of coma patients in different time periods is different.

[0079] S116: Determine an optimal time period for stimulation treatment of the comatose patient based on the coma level set.

[0080] By executing steps S114 to S116, during the awakening treatment of a comatose patient, the treatment effects of the comatose patient after treatment at different time points can be collected. For example, after one awakening treatment, it can be recorded whether the coma level of the comatose patient during this awakening treatment is alleviated or aggravated. By recording the treatment time of each awakening treatment and classifying the treatment effects after the awakening treatment in different time periods, the optimal time period for the comatose patient during the awakening treatment process can be determined.

[0081] In addition, in the process of determining the best time period for awakening treatment, the characteristic data of rhythm can also be used for selection. For example, the circadian rhythm of the brain waves of comatose patients may be different from that of ordinary people. During the coma period, the rhythm of the brain waves of comatose patients can be collected, and then the time period with more active rhythm can be found in all time periods for targeted stimulation, and other frequency bands can be stimulated during inactive time periods. By stimulating the time period with more active rhythm, the best time period can be determined.

[0082] S120 , obtaining an electroencephalogram signal of the comatose patient, adjusting stimulation parameters for stimulating the comatose patient based on the current coma level, and stimulating the trigeminal nerve of the comatose patient based on the stimulation parameters.

[0083] Among them, common stimulation methods include the following: non-invasive brain stimulation: such as transcranial direct current stimulation (regulating the excitability of the cerebral cortex through weak current) and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (influencing brain remodeling and cortical reorganization through electromagnetic pulses); invasive brain stimulation: such as deep brain stimulation and vagus nerve stimulation, these methods can stimulate the patient's thalamic reticular nucleus; sensory stimulation programs: including exercise therapy, audio therapy, music therapy and multi-sensory training therapy.

[0084] Compared with other stimulation methods, the biggest difference of trigeminal nerve stimulation lies in its stimulation target and mechanism. Trigeminal nerve stimulation mainly targets the trigeminal nerve in the head, which is a local nerve stimulation method, while other methods such as transcranial direct current stimulation and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation are more focused on regulating the excitability of the cerebral cortex or affecting brain remodeling. In addition, invasive brain stimulation such as deep brain stimulation and vagus nerve stimulation usually require surgical intervention, while trigeminal nerve stimulation is generally non-invasive. Sensory stimulation projects involve stimulation of multiple sensory systems and are not limited to specific neural pathways or brain regions.

[0085] In the case of stimulating the comatose patient to awaken, as shown in FIG5 , the method further includes:

[0086] S121, obtaining response data of a comatose patient after being stimulated;

[0087] Among them, the response data includes the frequency, amplitude, rhythm, etc. of brain waves.

[0088] S122, adjusting stimulation parameters for stimulating the comatose patient in real time based on the response data.

[0089] During the awakening treatment of comatose patients, each stimulation of the comatose patient will have a corresponding stress response, and the corresponding EEG signal of the comatose patient will change. At this time, the acquired response data can be used to achieve subtle real-time adjustments to the stimulation parameters.

[0090] At the same time, during each stimulation treatment of the comatose patient, as shown in FIG6 , the method further includes:

[0091] S123, retrieving the coma degree corresponding to the comatose patient and stimulation parameters for stimulating the comatose patient;

[0092] As mentioned above, the stimulation parameters will be adjusted according to the coma level of the comatose patient, which will not be elaborated here. Different levels of coma will correspond to stimulation parameters for awakening treatment.

[0093] S124, obtaining the corresponding stress response of the comatose patient after being stimulated.

[0094] S125, recording the coma degree, stimulation parameters, and corresponding stress response of the comatose patient.

[0095] By executing steps S123 to S125, during each stimulation process for awakening a comatose patient, the stimulation parameters are continuously fine-tuned in real time. The coma level, stimulation parameters, and corresponding stress response of the comatose patient are recorded at each time, achieving personalized treatment for the comatose patient. This allows for more accurate assessment of the patient's condition and treatment effectiveness. The recorded data can also be used as a reference for treating other comatose patients. For example, if patient A1 observes that stimulation x1 is more effective at coma level n1, if patient B also detects the characteristics of coma level n1, stimulation x1 will be used. However, since patients A1 and A2 respond differently at coma level n1, the database is used to determine which stimulation x1-xn is most likely to produce a benefit. Then, based on patient B's response, the expectations for x1, x2, etc. in the database are adjusted.

[0096] During the stimulation process of awakening treatment for comatose patients, the information of the comatose patients needs to be stored, and the security and privacy protection of the stored information need to be guaranteed. Therefore, in the data acquisition and data storage stage of each treatment process, after obtaining the EEG signal of the comatose patient, the method also includes: obtaining the identity information of the comatose patient, and then storing the identity information and the corresponding EEG signal and setting access encryption. It should be pointed out here that the EEG signal includes various data in the entire awakening treatment process. After encryption, access rights are set for the stored information; when it is necessary to understand the relevant data of the above-mentioned comatose patients during the treatment process, access rights and corresponding passwords are required to access, thereby achieving safety and privacy protection for comatose patients.
