装有监测被截肢者进展的传感器的套接件衬套
技术领域
本发明总体涉及一种用于监测人肢的健康的装置和方法。一些实施方式尤其涉及影响被截肢者的肢的健康的数据分析。一些实施方式旨在通过使用套接件衬套监测肢。
背景技术
通过使用不断改进的技术，被截肢者正发现通过使用假肢装置活动的更多方式。被截肢者常常使用放置在肢之上并由此连接到假肢装置的套接件。假肢可以用作被截肢者的腿、臂、脚或手。
然而，利用套接件可能引起刺激、体积收缩和其它对使用者的不良反应。通常，在套接件位于适当位置时使用衬套、软护套、套筒和其它肢覆盖物来协助防止对肢的损伤。尽管衬套可以提供保护，但是仍可能发生对肢的损伤。
因此，需要一种能够提供给使用套接件的被截肢者额外功能的新装置和方法。
发明内容
简单地说，本发明的实施方式提供一种允许被截肢者或诸如医生或修复学家的人监测肢的各种特性的装置和方法。具体地说，当具有适于接收肢的接收部分的诸如套接件或其它物品的衣服覆盖肢时进行监测。优选方式是，肢由套接件衬套(socket liner)覆盖。作为选择，衬套可以是单层结构或多层结构的。衬套构造为具有诸如适于整天从肢接收数据的生理学传感器的传感器。传感器可以构造为从肢接收各种生理学特性。优选方式是，衬套还包括构造为从传感器接收数据并将该数据发送到计算机、使用者、医生或修复学家的发送器。由此数据接收器帮助监测被围绕的肢的健康。
因此，在一个实施方式中，设置套接件来容纳被截肢者的肢。套接件包括适于接收被截肢者的肢的衬套，所述衬套包括内层和外层，以及设置在衬套的内层与外层之间的一个或多个传感器，传感器适合于监测其中接收的生理学数据。在一个实施例中，衬套包括用于容纳传感器的多个槽。在一个实施例中的传感器是沿衬套的表面设置的条带。在另一个实施例中，传感器可以由各种形状和尺寸构成。例如，环状传感器可以围绕衬套或在衬套内放置。此外，小传感器可以沿衬套的长度放置在考虑周到的位置。这些小传感器可以由环形或其它形状构成。在一个实施例中，衬套由两个粘接在一起的部分制成。
套接件衬套的一个实施方式包括具有内层和外层的衬套和设置在衬套的内层与外层之间的适于监测数据的一个或多个传感器。一个衬套包括内层、外层和在槽中用于监测肢的生理学特性的传感器。另一个衬套具有用于从肢接收数据的生理学传感器和用于将数据发送给接收器的发送器。另一个实施方式披露了具有保持多个传感器的接收部分的衣服，其中该衣服构造为将接收的数据发送到最终用户。此外，还提供了通过使用从具有位于其中的一个生理学传感器的衬套积累的数据，监测肢的生理学特性的方法。

具体实施方式
本发明的优选实施例旨在研制在正常行动的一段时间能够收集用于肢的身体数据的、用于被截肢者的接口。在一个实施例中，套接件用作肢和假肢之间的接口。被截肢者可以使用衬套来提供套接件内的悬浮和舒适。衬套可以硅树脂或其它材料制成并且可以与套接件一起提供锁定机构。锁定衬套装有销钉并且被依靠来悬浮套接件。通常为了舒适目的非锁定衬套或软垫衬套被使用并且使用带或其它机构来提供套接件的悬浮。术语衬套旨在解释为意义较宽的术语并且可以包含软保护套、套筒、插入物或其它放置在被截肢者的肢上的覆盖物。同时，衬套旨在以其明显和普通意义使用。在一个实施例中，如下面进一步所述，传感器装入放置在肢和套接件之间的套接件衬套中。在可选择的实施例中，传感器可以装入套接件软保护套中或套接件自身中。典型的软保护套提供用于肢的减震并且整天将体积增加到失去的肢。
优选方式是，传感器放置在构成套接件衬套的硅树脂或其它聚合材料(例如，热塑弹性体或聚亚安酯)中。传感器可以包括，但不限于：
用于测量和映射周围的氧的氧传感器，例如，通过高灵敏度的Spo2传感器的阵列；
监测肢上的衬套和/或套接件的配合的压力传感器；
温度传感器；
测量血压的传感器；
湿度传感器；
测量葡萄糖的传感器；
测量整个步态中肢在衬套和/或套接件内的运动的传感器；
测量整天内肢的体积波动的传感器；
测量体脂肪的传感器；
活动监测传感器，即假肢一天一天地穿戴多长时间并且是否具有高活动时间段。
测量衬套和/或套接件在肢上施加的剪力的传感器。
可以理解，对于不同的应用和对于其它诊断或生理学测量，其它传感器可以用于衬套中。
通过传感器获得的数据可以利用装入衬套和与衬套一起安装的通信设备传送到遥远的位置、康复医生和/或CPO(认证的修复学家/矫正器修配者)。这种方法帮助被截肢者融入社会并且使其修复学家获得最大的舒适和充分利用修复学家。另一个目的是以统计学的方式收集关于被截肢者的医学信息，从而给与更好处置的可能性。传感器可以通过使用槽、通道或袋在衬套内保持在适当位置。袋可以具有开口或封闭的端部。作为选择，可以存在槽、通道和袋的组合。此外，传感器可以在衬套上延伸。传感器可以由刚性、柔性材料或刚性和柔性材料的组合制造。
传感器可以装入套接件衬套的两种方式是一体传感器，以及放置在套接件衬套的层之间中的传感器。然而，传感器可以放置在软保护套、套接件插入物，套接件自身中，以及可以装入放置在被截肢者的肢之上的装置内的材料的其它层中。
图1示出了装有生理学传感器，更优选为压力传感器14、16和氧传感器12的套接件衬套的一个实施例。术语生理学传感器旨在限定较宽意义的术语以及其普通的意义。生理学传感器可以用于测量周围的氧、温度、湿度、体脂肪、血液气体、血压、血糖水平以及其它诸如上述的有关数据。生理学压力传感器14、16可以用于监测可以用作病人健康测度的肢施加到衬套上的压力。压力传感器14、16还可以监测衬套10和/或套接件施加在肢上的压力。氧传感器12可以用于测量诸如上述的周围的氧。
衬套10可以包括单层和多层。优选方式是，衬套10以两层18、20制造。在一个实施例中，内层18优选包括传感器12、14、16放置在其中、直到六个的纵向槽或通道22。传感器12、14、16可以放置在一个或多个槽22中。一旦传感器12、14、16已经正确定位，外层20定位在内层18之上。然后，内层18和外层20粘接在一起。两部分优选由硅树脂制成，但是也可以使用其它合适的材料。
图2和3示出了其中设有六个压力传感器14、16的衬套10的内层18。如图6-9中更详细所示，在一个实施例中设有五个短的压力传感器14，以及一个长的压力传感器16。五个短压力传感器14优选沿衬套10的周围每隔大约45度设置，所述一个长压力传感器16与五个短压力传感器14中最中心的相对180度定位。在使用300mm长的硅树脂衬套10的例子中，短传感器14优选大约260mm长，并且一个长传感器16大约410mm且围绕内层18的底部卷绕到相对侧。上面提供的这些长度涉及各个传感器14、16的柔性部分的总长度。传感器14、16优选还包括位于衬套10的上边缘24之上的刚性部分26(如图6-9中所示)。传感器的任何部分可以由柔性材料或刚性材料构造。传感器可以由硅树脂或其它类似的聚合材料制造。在一个实施例中，传感器可以由金属和泡沫材料组合制造。在图示的实施例中，刚性部分26优选大约30mm长。
图4和5示出了其中设有氧传感器12的衬套的内层18。氧传感器12可以定位在包括接近压力传感器14、16，在压力传感器14、16之下或在压力传感器14、16之上延伸的各个位置。如图4和5中所示，氧传感器12设置在压力传感器14之上，并且氧传感器12和压力传感器14、16在衬套10的边缘24之上延伸。在另一个实施例中(图中未示出)，传感器12、14、16完全定位在衬套10的内层18和外层10之间。在另一个实施例中，氧传感器12装入衬套10中，而不连接到压力传感器14、16。作为选择，氧传感器12可以与任何上述的生理学传感器12、14、16组合或单独装入衬套10、软保护套、插入物、和/或套接件中。如图1中所示，在组装的衬套10的一个实施例中，三个氧传感器12设置在衬套10中。
可以理解，传感器12、14、16在衬套10中的数量和布置可以变化。还可以理解，将传感器12、14、16装入衬套10中的其它方式也可以采用。此外，传感器12、14、16不必位于衬套10中并且可以位于其自身的插座中。上述装置的其它变化也可以构思出。因此，本发明的范围不限于上述优选实施例。
