Description

Sphygmomanometer based on gallium-based liquid alloy and blood pressure calibration method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to a sphygmomanometer based on gallium-based liquid alloy and a blood pressure calibration method.
Background
A sphygmomanometer is an instrument for measuring blood pressure, and is also called as a blood pressure instrument. The sphygmomanometer mainly comprises an auscultation sphygmomanometer and an oscillometric sphygmomanometer. 1835 Ulipristan invented a sphygmomanometer that transmitted the pulse of the pulse to a narrow mercury column, and mercury jumped up and down accordingly as the pulse was pulsating, allowing physicians to measure pulse and blood pressure without cutting the artery. The main principle of the sphygmomanometer is a process of measuring the blood flow pressure during a period when the pressure is applied by pressurizing air to press a local artery and the pulsation of the local artery is stopped. The cuff air is adjusted to change the pressure and the sound of the pulsation is heard by the stethoscope, so as to obtain the systolic pressure and the diastolic pressure. The mercury sphygmomanometer is of a desk type and a vertical type, and the desk type mercury sphygmomanometer has a reasonable structure, and is firm and reliable; the height of the vertical sphygmomanometer can be adjusted at will, and the vertical sphygmomanometer is most commonly used due to reliable results.

Environmentally friendly, non-toxic gallium-based liquid alloys have been successfully used to replace the temperature sensing fluids in mercury thermometers. However, in the application process of the sphygmomanometer, since the liquid metal is in contact with air in the use process, once the gallium-based liquid alloy is used to replace mercury, the liquid alloy is easily oxidized, and oxides adhere to the surface of glass, so that the device fails.

Specifically, the inner side of the arm ring 2 is provided with an air pressure bag which is communicated with the liquid metal cavity 1 through an air pipeline, and the liquid metal cavity 1, the arm ring 2 and the air pipeline form a closed space; the enclosed space ensures that the gallium-based liquid alloy 6 is not contacted with the air, and the gallium-based liquid alloy 6 is fully prevented from being oxidized and adhered to the surface of the liquid metal cavity 1. The glass capillary 3 is arranged along the vertical direction, the bottom end of the glass capillary is communicated with the liquid metal cavity 1, and the top end of the glass capillary is communicated with the pressure maintaining cavity 4; the pressure maintaining cavity 4 is filled with a first inert gas, and the pressure of the first inert gas is equal to the atmospheric pressure; therefore, when the first inert gas in the glass capillary tube 3 is compressed to the pressure maintaining cavity 4 by the gallium-based liquid alloy column, the pressure maintaining cavity 4 can ensure that the pressure cannot be obviously increased in the continuous pressing and increasing process of the upper side of the gallium-based liquid alloy column, so that the measurement precision is influenced. In order to ensure that the pressure in the pressure maintaining chamber 4 is maintained to be stable, the volume of the pressure maintaining chamber 4 is generally ensured to be more than 100 times of the volume of the glass capillary tube 3, i.e. the volume of the pressure maintaining chamber 4 is V1, the volume of the glass capillary tube 3 is V2, and V1 is more than 100V 2.
The pressure control cavity 5 is in controllable communication with the closed space, generally adopts a controllable air pressure valve to control the communication, the pressure control cavity 5 is filled with a second inert gas, and the pressure control cavity 5 enables the closed space to have at least two working states: an inflation pressurization state and an exhaust depressurization state; the inflation pressurization state is that the second inert gas is pressed into the closed space to press the gallium-based liquid alloy 6 into the glass capillary 3 to form a gallium-based liquid alloy column; the air pressure bag in the arm ring 2 is pressed on the arm extending into the arm ring 2 under the inflation and pressurization state; the exhaust depressurization state is that the second inert gas is slowly released, the pressure in the closed space keeps a balance state with the atmospheric pressure, the air pressure in the arm ring 2 is reduced, and the gallium-based liquid alloy column in the glass capillary 3 descends and flows back to enter the liquid metal cavity 1; the exhaust decompression state is used for measuring the human blood pressure according to the descending rule of the gallium-based liquid alloy column.
When the sphygmomanometer product is applied specifically, parameters of each structure need to be further set, including the composition of the gallium-based liquid alloy 6, the diameter and the height of the glass capillary tube 3, the diameter of the arm ring 2, the amount of the gallium-based liquid alloy 6 and the descending rate of the gallium-based liquid alloy column in the glass capillary tube 3 in an exhaust and pressure reduction state, so that the product is ensured to have the optimal performance ratio.
Specifically, for example, the gallium-based liquid alloy 6 is selected from a gallium-indium binary alloy, a gallium-tin binary alloy, a gallium-indium-tin ternary alloy, or a doped alloy material, and the doped alloy material is an alloy material which takes three elements of gallium, indium and tin as main elements and is liquid at room temperature.

When the pressure control cavity 5 is designed and selected, the upper limit of the pressure control cavity 5 in the pressurizing process to the closed space is set so that the height of the gallium-based liquid alloy column formed by the gallium-based liquid alloy 6 entering the glass capillary 3 is H2, the preset value of the height of the gallium-based liquid alloy column formed by the gallium-based liquid alloy 6 entering the glass capillary 3 in the inflation pressurizing state during the measurement of the blood pressure of the human body is H3, then the requirements are that H2 is more than or equal to 300mm and less than or equal to 500mm, H3 is more than or equal to 300mm and less than or equal to 500mm, and H2 is more than or equal to H3 and less than H1; namely, the gallium-based liquid alloy 6 is prevented from being excessively pressed into the pressure maintaining cavity 4 to cause measurement failure. In operation, certain embodiments directly connect the enclosed space with an inert gas cylinder to realize gas pressure control, and the controlled inert gas cylinder directly serves as the pressure control cavity 5.
The diameter of the arm ring 2 is D2, D2 is more than or equal to 60mm and less than or equal to 300mm, so that the arm ring is suitable for different arm diameters; when the human body blood pressure is tested, the arm of the tested human body is inserted into the arm ring 2, the air pressure bag at the inner side of the arm ring 2 is tightly pressed with the arm in an inflated state, and the pressure of the blood vessel of the human body is sensed.
The amount of the gallium-based liquid alloy 6 in the liquid metal cavity 1 is set to ensure that the amount of the gallium-based liquid alloy 6 stored in the liquid metal cavity 1 at least enables the height of a gallium-based liquid alloy column formed in the glass capillary 3 under an inflation and pressurization state to reach a preset value H3, otherwise, an accurate blood pressure value cannot be obtained during measurement. As shown in fig. 1, the liquid metal cavity 1 and the arm ring 2 are in a direct communication state, and in some embodiments, in order to prevent the pressure control cavity 5 from generating a pressure runaway suck-back phenomenon, a switch is directly arranged between the liquid metal cavity 1 and the arm ring 2, and the switch is always in a closed state in a non-application state of the sphygmomanometer, for example, the switch is arranged on one side of the liquid metal cavity 1, which is connected with the arm ring 2 through a pipeline, so as to ensure safety.
The dropping rate of the gallium-based liquid alloy column in the glass capillary 3 in the exhaust and pressure reduction state is set to be 1-5 mm/min, the exhaust and pressure reduction state is used for testing the blood pressure of a human body, the dropping rate of the gallium-based liquid alloy column is used as an index to indicate the pressure reduction rate, and the slow dropping rate can be used for clearly capturing the blood pressure fluctuation of the human body.
As shown in fig. 2, the invention also provides a sphygmomanometer, wherein the pressure maintaining cavity 4 of the sphygmomanometer is an elastic space with variable space volume; that is, the top end of the glass capillary 3 is hermetically connected with an elastic membrane, the elastic space is formed by the deformation of the elastic membrane through the gas compression in the glass capillary 3, and the pressure of the elastic space is consistent with the pressure of the atmospheric pressure.
The blood pressure can be calibrated by the sphygmomanometer in various ways, for example, the blood pressure is judged according to sound and the movement rule of the gallium-based liquid alloy column, and detection signals are directly converted into digital form through new sensing technologies such as sound and images, so that data reading of detection personnel is facilitated; the present invention is not limited to the exemplary calibration methods described above. For example, the conventional mercury sphygmomanometer uses a stethoscope to listen to the pulse of a test subject, and determines diastolic pressure and systolic pressure by starting and ending a special sound during a change in a pressure value, which requires a relatively rich experience of a tester. The invention also discloses a blood pressure calibration method, namely, the blood pressure is judged by the sphygmomanometer based on the gallium-based liquid alloy according to the motion rule of the gallium-based liquid alloy column, in the implementation, the pressure cavity 5 is controlled to control the linear stable reduction of the pressure, but the gallium-based liquid alloy column can generate the jitter phenomenon in the reduction process, the pressure corresponding to the beginning of jitter is expressed as systolic pressure, and the pressure corresponding to the end of jitter is expressed as diastolic pressure.
Examples
Gallium indium tin ternary alloy is used as pressure sensing liquid, and the weight ratio of gallium to indium to tin is 70: 20: 10; argon is selected as the first inert gas and the second inert gas respectively filled in the pressure maintaining cavity 4 and the pressure control cavity 5; the diameter D1 of the glass capillary tube 2 is set to be 2mm, the height H1 is 600mm, the diameter D2 of the arm ring 2 is 180mm, and the volume of the pressure maintaining cavity 4 is 0.2L;
after the arm goes deep into the arm ring, the arm is placed at a standard position for controllable pressurization; pressing inert gas into a closed space formed by the arm ring 2, the vent pipeline and the liquid metal cavity 1, pressing the gallium-based liquid alloy 6 to enable the gallium-based liquid alloy column in the glass capillary 3 to be raised to 350mm, and meanwhile, extruding the arm by a pressure bag on the inner side of the arm ring 2, wherein the pressure is consistent and synchronous with the gallium-based liquid alloy column; the pressure is maintained for 3 seconds, and then stable and controllable pressure reduction is carried out, wherein the pressure reduction rate is 2 mm/min.
The blood pressure of a human body is judged according to the motion rule of the gallium-based liquid alloy column, and in the pressure reduction process, the gallium-based liquid alloy column is stably reduced from 350mm to 295mm and fluctuates until the stable reduction trend is recovered from 167 mm; the gallium-based liquid alloy column with the diameter of 295mm can be judged to be systolic pressure, and the gallium-based liquid alloy column with the diameter of 167mm is judged to be diastolic pressure. The measurement is repeated three times, and the data error is within 2 percent. Through density conversion, the ratio of the gallium-based liquid alloy column to the mercury column is 2.2: 1, the actual systolic and diastolic pressures measured were not 134 mm Hg and 76 mm Hg, respectively. Further through the comparison test of mercury sphygmomanometer, the data is accurate.
Therefore, the sphygmomanometer based on the gallium-based liquid alloy provided by the invention adopts a test principle similar to a mercury sphygmomanometer, utilizes a dual-cavity pressure control system to control pressure test with excellent precision, and is expected to directly replace the original mercury sphygmomanometer under the water guarantee constraint; in the embodiment, the accurate value is obtained by converting the height of the gallium-based liquid alloy column and the mercury column, and the comparison of the results shows that the measurement accuracy of the gallium-based liquid alloy column can be ensured, so that the gallium-based liquid alloy column can be directly used after calibration. In addition, the sphygmomanometer system is in a closed inert gas environment, oxidation is fully avoided, the gallium-based liquid alloy 6 can be ensured to freely flow in the glass capillary 3 for a long time, and the testing accuracy is ensured. Meanwhile, a new blood pressure calibration method is introduced, reading convenience of the electronic sphygmomanometer and high accuracy of the mercury sphygmomanometer are collected, and the electronic sphygmomanometer is expected to be popularized better.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to the preferred embodiments, it is not intended to be limited thereto. Those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be determined by the appended claims.
