Description

Low-frequency modulated intermediate-frequency electric stimulation external diaphragm pacemaker
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of medical appliances, and particularly relates to an external diaphragm pacemaker for low-frequency modulated medium-frequency electrical stimulation in the field of physical therapy in the field of rehabilitation medicine.
Background
The respiratory related muscles of the human body mainly include diaphragm, intercostal external muscle, pectoral large muscle, abdominal muscle, sternocleidomastoid muscle, etc., wherein diaphragm and intercostal external muscle are the most dominant inspiratory muscles. During inspiration, the diaphragm contracts, the diaphragm pushes down, and the chest cavity increases; during exhalation, the diaphragm is relaxed, the diaphragm is lifted, and the chest cavity is contracted. Diaphragm is the predominant respiratory muscle and the effect of diaphragm contraction during calm breathing is 70% to 80% of ventilation, but diaphragm oxygen consumption is very small, typically less than 20% of the total respiratory muscle group oxygen consumption. From a physiological point of view, improving diaphragm function is an economical and well-priced way of improving respiratory motion.
In 1967, green (Glenn) invented a diaphragm pacemaker implanted in the body, and was mainly used for chronic ventilation insufficiency, such as respiratory paralysis caused by central lesions of central alveolar hypoventilation syndrome, brainstem, spinal cord, etc. The implanted diaphragm pacemaker has electrodes buried inside the left and right diaphragmatic nerves and electrically pulse to stimulate diaphragmatic nerve via electromagnetic coupling to improve respiratory function. The professor of the university of mountain science in 1987 invented an external diaphragm pacemaker and applied for a patent. Chinese patent application nos. CN87208778, CN89200051, CN89220851, CN90109631, CN200720059728, CN200920053574, CN201020121786, CN201220045744, CN200420105510 disclose several implementations of external diaphragm pacemakers, although the implementations are different, the output electrical stimulation signals are low-frequency electrical stimulation signals, such as: in the first 8 patents, the apparatus uses low frequency electrical stimulation signals at the time of treatment, with 40 hz being the optimal frequency, CN200420105510 providing output frequencies of 40 hz and 2.5 hz +40 hz. The implantable diaphragmatic pacemaker of the us green (Glenn) invention also outputs therapeutic signals at low frequencies.
In the field of rehabilitation medicine, pulse current with the frequency below 1000 hertz is called low-frequency current or low-frequency pulse current in physical therapeutics. The method of applying low frequency pulsed current to the human body to treat diseases is called low frequency electrical therapy. The method of treating diseases using pulsed current with a frequency of 1K to 100K Hz is called intermediate frequency electric therapy.
The existing intermediate frequency electrotherapy theory holds that: the frequency of the medium-frequency current is higher than that of the low-frequency current, and the medium-frequency current is alternating current, and the electric characteristics and the physical and chemical effects of the human body are obviously different from those of the low-frequency current when the medium-frequency current acts on the human body.
1. Can overcome tissue resistance, compared with low-frequency electricity, can act on deeper tissue human body tissue to different resistances of different frequency currents, has higher resistance to low-frequency electricity, and gradually reduces the resistance of the human body along with the increase of the current frequency. In addition to resistive properties, human tissue also has capacitive properties. Higher frequency currents are easier to pass through the capacitor than lower frequency currents. Due to human body versus frequencyThe resistance and capacitance of the higher alternating current are lower, so the total impedance is also much smaller, and more current passes. The current intensity applied by the intermediate frequency electric therapy is larger and can reach 0.1-0.5 mA/cm 2 The depth of human tissues can be increased.
2. Bidirectional electroless action: the medium-frequency current is alternating current with higher frequency, is current with faster positive and negative alternation, and has no positive and negative poles. When the medium-frequency current acts on the human body, ions in human tissues in the positive half cycle and the negative half cycle of each cycle of the current move back and forth in different directions, so that the ions cannot move under the electrode to cause electrolytic reaction, no acid-base products are generated under the electrode, and the skin under the electrode cannot be damaged by chemical stimulation of the acid-base products like in direct current electrotherapy.
3. Exciting neuromuscular tissue: although the middle frequency electricity has no obvious stimulation effect on motor and sensory nerves as compared with the low frequency electricity, the regulation effect on the functions of autonomic nerves and viscera is better than the low frequency electricity, and the stimulation effect can be applied to deep tissues, so that the skin has no obvious stinging while causing strong muscle contraction. When the intermediate frequency electricity acts on the skin, the skin nerves and the receptors are not stimulated strongly, only slight trembling sense is generated when the intermediate frequency electricity with threshold intensity is stimulated, only acupuncture sense is generated when the current intensity is increased, no obvious discomfort and pain are generated, the acupuncture sense is weakened gradually when the current is continuously electrified, and uncomfortable constraint sense only occurs when the current intensity is large. The strong mid-frequency current stimulation causes the feeling of muscle contraction to be more comfortable than the feeling of low-frequency electrical stimulation, and the patient has no obvious pain feeling when the muscle contraction occurs, so the patient can endure larger current intensity when in mid-frequency electrotherapy.
4. Pain relief and blood circulation promotion: after various medium-frequency electric actions for 10-15 minutes, the number of locally opened capillaries is increased, the blood flow speed and the blood flow are both increased, and the local blood circulation is improved. The intermediate frequency electricity has the inhibition effect on the sensory nerve and can raise the pain threshold of the skin, so that the intermediate frequency electricity has obvious analgesic effect.
5. Characteristics of low frequency modulated intermediate frequency current: the low-frequency modulated intermediate frequency current has the characteristics of low and intermediate frequency current. The most suitable current for stimulating the diseased muscle is not a simple low-frequency pulse current but a medium-frequency current modulated by low frequency, and the adopted current not only contains medium-frequency electric components, but also has the characteristic of low-frequency electricity. The current has no low-frequency electricity disadvantage (such as shallow action surface, large skin irritation, electrolysis action and the like), but has the advantages and effects of low-frequency electricity and medium-frequency electricity.
For historical reasons, the external diaphragm pacemakers produced at home and abroad are all low-frequency electric pulse treatment devices at present.
However, such low frequency electrical pulses have their inherent disadvantages:
such as shallow stimulation, large skin irritation, electrolysis, and easy fatigue. The diaphragmatic nerve is separated from the body surface by a certain distance, and common electric stimulation is not easy to stimulate the diaphragmatic nerve. In the past, the external diaphragm pacemaker designed according to the low-frequency electric pulse principle has the defect that the curative effect is not ideal because the stimulation action surface is shallow and the diaphragmatic nerve can not be stimulated well.
