背景技术
不规律心跳和心律失常与患者的显著发病率和死亡率有关。心律失常可能连续发生,或者可能间歇发生。心律失常的类型包括心房纤维性颤动和室上性心动过速。非侵入性心脏监测可用于诊断心律失常。
发明内容
本文描述了用于心脏监测的系统、设备和方法。本文描述的用于心脏监测的系统、设备和方法可以包括便携式计算设备,诸如智能电话、智能手表、膝上型电脑和平板电脑。使用本文描述的系统、设备和方法进行的心脏监测可用于预测或识别心律失常的发生。
心律失常可能连续发生,或者可能间歇发生。可以使用许多不同的技术来诊断持续发生的心律失常,这些技术包括例如触诊个体的桡动脉脉搏、听诊个体的心脏声音、记录个体的心率、以及记录个体的心电图。因为在患者中总是存在或基本上总是存在连续的或基本上连续的心律不齐,所以可以在任何时候应用任何前述的诊断技术以进行诊断。也可以使用上述诊断技术中的任何一种用于间歇性心律失常诊断,然而由于间歇性心律失常并不总是存在,诊断技术不能在任何时候应用,而必须在当个体正在经历心律失常时应用。因此,诊断间歇性心律失常可能是困难的,因为例如在个体经历间歇性心律失常的确切时间处,准备好应用上述诊断模式之一是不实际的。当个体未感知到他们正在经历间歇性心律失常时,这种特殊的难度也可能加重,使得例如他们不会在间歇性心律失常期间寻求健康护理提供者。
然而,可以方便地感测某些参数值,例如心率和活动水平,并分析它们以预测或确定心律失常的存在。可以分析一个或多个方便连续感测的参数值,例如心率和活动水平,以通过识别这两个参数值之间的不一致来确定心律失常的未来发作或存在。例如,两个感测值之间的不一致可以指示心律失常的未来发作或存在。响应于对心律失常的未来发作或存在的识别,可以使心电图被感测。
附加的感测参数也可以在分析中用作本文描述的心脏监测系统、设备和方法的一部分。例如,确定的心率变异性可以与感测的心率和活动水平进行比较,以确定例如心房纤维性颤动或室上性心动过速的存在。

具体实施方式
心脏监测
本文描述了用于心脏监测的系统、设备和方法。心脏监测通常包括监测个体的心脏功能的变化,例如,心率或心律。
心率可以在例如通常被定义为低于每分钟搏动60次的心率的心动过缓、通常被定义为每分钟搏动60-100次的心率的正常静息心率和通常被定义为大于每分钟搏动100次的心率的心动过速之间变化。心率在一段时间内的变化可以被称为心率变异性(HRV)。
心脏功能也根据律动的规律性来衡量。正常心律包括收缩期(射血期)和舒张期(灌流期)。在收缩期和舒张期期间,心脏的心室以规律的方式一致地作用,每一次心跳都会重复。当律动异常时,通常将该情况称为心律失常。心律失常的示例包括心房纤维性颤动、WPW综合征、延长的QT综合征和早搏心室收缩。
许多心律失常间歇地发生,并且相对不常出现。因此,为了监测和捕获间歇性心律失常,通常需要连续监测。可以使用动态心电图(holter)监测在走动患者中连续测量ECG,但是这种类型的监测对于患者来说是麻烦的,并且因此没有被广泛使用。配置成拍摄间断ECG的设备或系统对用户来说更为方便。此类设备或系统包括移动计算设备,其包括当与患者的皮肤表面接触时感测ECG的一个或多个电极。此类设备是轻的且便携的,并且不一定要求用户与一个或多个电极连续物理接触,就像使用holter型监测器那样。当用户被指示发生间歇性心律失常时,可以利用这些设备和系统记录间歇性心律失常。HRV感测与这些设备或系统组合使用以向用户指示何时接触一个或多个电极以感测ECG。
图1示出了在同一时期从同一个体感测到的心率跟踪100和相应的心电图(ECG)跟踪104。如ECG跟踪104所示,在感测到ECG的时期,个体经历了间歇性心房纤维性颤动106期间。也如心率跟踪100所示,在间歇性心房纤维性颤动期间个体的心率快速增加102。因此,随着个体的心率从静息心率增加到增加的心率102,个体的HRV在间歇性心房纤维性颤动期间增加。因此,HRV变化与心房纤维性颤动相关,其中在间歇性心房纤维性颤动期间发现HRV增加。
图2示出了显示经过一段时间后在经历不同心律失常的个体中的心率202和心律分析200的图。如图所示,在感测的心房纤维性颤动200期间,测得的心率202倾向于增加到每分钟搏动100次以上。因此,在心律失常期间,在该个体中出现高于静息心率的升高心率。
图3示出了在阵发性心房纤维性颤动期间感测到的心率跟踪的特写。如图所示,在心房纤维性颤动期间,从正常心脏每分钟搏动60-100次增加到每分钟搏动100次以上302有大幅增加。
图4示出了用于连续感测心率或活动水平的可用技术400。所示的是由制造商(例如,苹果)提供的智能手表。所示出的智能手表技术400中的一种的佩戴者可以方便且持续地佩戴一整天与手表耦合或集成的一个或多个传感器,因此,经由与智能手表耦合或集成的一个或多个传感器有效地连续地监测一个或多个参数值。因此,其中一种智能手表技术400是可佩戴形式的设备类型的示例,其方便地提供对用户的一个或多个参数的连续监视。可佩戴设备的非限制性示例包括手表(例如,智能手表)、眼镜、腕带、项链和衣服,可佩戴设备可具有耦合到它们或集成到它们的一个或多个传感器。然后,例如如图4所示的此种技术的用户的一个或多个连续感测的参数被用于指示用户使用设备或系统来感测ECG。例如,当用户的HRV增加时,佩戴具有心率传感器的智能手表的用户被智能手表提醒以记录ECG。
图5示出了通常用于测量与智能手表502结合的心率的光电传感器500。
在许多具有发生心律失常倾向的个体中活动水平与心律失常相关,其中增加的活动水平与心律失常的发作相关。在其他个体中,在存在增加的HRV的情况下,由一个或多个活动传感器检测到的增加的活动水平可能是正常的,并且与心律失常无关。因此,如本文所述,添加连续的心率监测以及连续的活动水平监测可以在心律失常监测方面实现与连续的心电图监测相同的结果。使用与本文描述的设备或系统相关联的一个或多个传感器,可以方便且准确地连续且同时感测心率和活动水平的两个参数值。

感测的加速心率和低血压的组合通常指示异常,然而,其它生理状况也可能产生伴随着低血压的升高心率,包括例如脱水。因此,在一些实施例中,当将生理参数(诸如心率、血压、氧饱和度和温度)与个体的基线值或来自包含其他个体的生理参数的数据库的数据进行比较时,准确性增强。例如,一些精英运动员具有在另一个体中异常的生理参数值,例如非常低的心率或增加的心率变异性(例如,在锻炼期间)。
在一些实施例中,本文所述的设备被配置成感测个体的光体积描记图。例如,光体积描记图提供心脏周期信息,并且可以例如由本文描述的设备的处理器进行分析以确定早搏心室收缩的存在。
在一些实施例中,如本文所述的设备被配置成感测个体的脉搏氧合。在一些实施例中,如本文所述的设备被配置成感测个体的脉搏氧合。
分析
在一些实施例中,如本文所述的设备被配置成感测和/或分析多个附加的生理参数。由本文描述的设备和系统感测和/或分析的参数值的非限制性示例包括心率、活动水平、血压、温度、脉搏氧和心率变异性。在一些实施例中,分析包括第一感测生理参数与第二感测生理参数的比较,并确定第一感测参数值与第二感测参数值之间是否存在不一致。
在一些实施例中,如本文所述的设备被配置成监测个体中的心律失常,其中监测可以包括心律失常发作的识别。在一些实施例中,由本文描述的设备执行的心脏监视包括例如监测先前未被识别有心律失常的个体中的心律失常的存在或发作。在一些实施例中,由本文描述的设备执行的心脏监测包括识别已知或怀疑的间歇性心律失常的发作。在一些实施例中,本文描述的设备被配置成预测个体的心律失常的发作。例如,心律失常的发作是由于所感测的生理参数(诸如心率)的值的突然和显著的移位而预测的。当两个或多个生理参数被同时检测和相对于彼此分析时,心律失常的预测更精确。例如,相对于感测的活动水平的心率变化的感测提供了感测心率的上下文信息。
心律失常的子集有时被称为快速性心律失常。快速性心律失常通常包括心动过速心率,其可以包括每分钟搏动100次以上的心率。快速性心律失常可以包括例如某些类型的心房纤维性颤动和室上性心动过速。在一些实施例中,如本文所述的设备被配置成识别快速性心律失常的存在或发作,例如心房纤维性颤动或室上性心动过速。在一些实施例中,如本文所述的设备被配置成识别快速性心律失常的存在或发作。在一些实施例中,如本文所述的设备被配置成预测快速性心律失常的发作。

在一些实施例中,一个或多个连续传感器可以感测一个或多个参数,其通过一个或多个传感器引起间歇性心脏监测开始。在一些实施例中,连续感测个体的心率。在一些实施例中,连续感测个体的活动水平。在一些实施例中,连续感测个体的心率变异性。在一些实施例中,间歇地感测个体的心电图。在一些实施例中,响应于个体的连续测量的心率,使间歇感测的心电图被感测。在一些实施例中,响应于个体的活动水平,使间歇感测的心电图被感测。在一些实施例中,响应于连续测量的心率和连续测量的活动水平,使间歇感测的心电图被感测。在一些实施例中,响应于连续感测的心率、连续感测的活动水平以及连续感测的心率变化性,使间歇感测的心电图被感测。
在一些实施例中,如本文所述的设备或系统包含一个或多个传感器,其配置成用于连续心脏监测。在一些实施例中,如本文所述的设备或系统包含一个或多个传感器,其配置成用于间歇性心脏监测。在一些实施例中,如本文所述的设备或系统包括一个或多个心率传感器,其可以例如包括光电传感器。在一些实施例中,如本文所述的设备或系统包括一个或多个活动水平传感器,其可以例如包括加速度计或陀螺仪。在一些实施例中,如本文所述的设备或系统包括一个或多个心电图传感器,其可以例如包括一个或多个电极。适用于本文描述的设备、系统和方法的其它传感器的非限制性示例还包括血压传感器、温度传感器和脉搏血氧传感器。
在一些实施例中,如本文所述的设备或系统包括处理器。在一些实施例中,处理器与被配置成连续感测的一个或多个传感器以及被配置成间歇感测的一个或多个传感器耦合。在一些实施例中,处理器被配置成从一个或多个传感器接收参数值。在一些实施例中,处理器被配置成激活一个或多个传感器或启动对参数值的感测。在一些实施例中,处理器被配置成分析参数值。在一些实施例中,处理器被配置成将第一参数值与第二参数值进行比较。在一些实施例中,要被比较的第一参数值和第二参数值同时或基本上同时被感测。
在一些实施例中,如本文所述的设备或系统还包括程序或应用程序形式的软件。在一些实施例中,程序或应用程序可以被配置成使处理器执行一个或多个功能。在一些实施例中,程序或应用程序可以被配置成使处理器从一个或多个传感器接收参数值。在一些实施例中,程序或应用程序可以被配置成使处理器激活一个或多个传感器或启动对参数值的感测。在一些实施例中,程序或应用程序可以被配置成使处理器分析参数值。在一些实施例中,程序或应用程序可以被配置成使处理器将第一参数值与第二参数值进行比较。在一些实施例中,要被比较的第一参数值和第二参数值同时或基本上同时被感测。
在一些实施例中,本文描述的设备被配置成执行分析,其中分析由处理器执行。在一些实施例中,由本文描述的设备执行的一个或多个参数值的分析包括感测的参数值与阈值或范围的比较。例如,分析可以包括确定感测的心率值是否落入一个或多个范围内。例如,在一些实施例中,感测的心率可以被确定为在包括每分钟搏动60-100次的范围的心率范围内。例如,在一些实施例中,感测的心率可以被确定为在包括小于每分钟搏动60次的范围的心率范围内。例如,在一些实施例中,感测的心率可以被确定为在包括大于每分钟搏动100次的范围的心率范围内。
在一些实施例中,由本文描述的设备执行的一个或多个参数值的分析包括第一感测参数与第二感测参数的比较。例如,在一些实施例中,将心率值与个体的感测活动水平进行比较。
在一些实施例中,将第一感测值与第二感测值进行比较,并且确定两个值之间是否存在不一致。例如,在一些实施方式中,预期在升高的活动期间存在升高的心率值,因此同时感测的升高的心率和升高的活动水平将不会被发现彼此不一致。
当第一感测参数值不期望与第二感测参数值一致时,可以识别不一致。例如,升高的心率值预计不会出现在正常或静息的活动水平上,并且因此这两个值彼此不一致。例如,在一些实施例中,当心率传感器感测到每分钟搏动100次以上的心率并且同时感测的活动水平被确定为静息活动水平时,两个感测值的分析确定它们彼此不一致。
在一些实施例中,由本文描述的设备和系统执行的分析包括心率变异性的增加的确定。在一些实施例中,由本文描述的设备和系统执行的分析包括将心率变异性与一个或多个感测的参数值进行比较。例如,在一些实施例中,将心率变异性与同时或基本上同时感测的心率值和活动水平值进行比较。
在一些实施例中,由本文描述的设备和系统执行的分析包括使用如本文所述的识别的不一致来预测或识别心律失常的发生。在一些实施例中,确定包括同时或基本上同时感测的升高的心率和静息或正常活动水平的不一致以指示心律失常即将发生或心律失常的存在。特别地,由于心率升高,具有这种类型的不一致的心律失常典型地包括快速性心律失常。
在一些实施例中,确定心率变异性、升高的心率以及静息或正常活动率上同时感测的增加以指示心房纤维性颤动的未来发作或存在。在一些实施例中,还可以确定感测的增加的心率变异性、正常静息心率和静息或正常活动率以指示心房纤维性颤动的未来发作或存在。在一些实施例中,确定心率变异性、升高的心率以及静息或正常活动率上同时感测的降低以指示室上性心动过速的未来发作或存在。在一些实施例中,当心律失常被确定为即将发生或者存在时,记录心电图。在一些实施例中,通过本文描述的心脏监测设备或系统指示或通知个体接合一个或多个电极以感测心电图。在一些实施例中,一个或多个电极可以定位在心脏监测设备的表面上,以使得个体例如可以舒适地使第一电极与第一末端的皮肤表面接合,而同时使第二电极与第二末端的皮肤表面接合。在一些实施例中,当心律失常被确定为即将发作或存在于个体中时,一个或多个电极可以被附接到个体的身体并且被自动地接合以通过心脏监测设备或系统感测心电图。例如,第一电极可以定位在由个体的第一末端佩戴的智能手表上,并且第二电极可以定位在由个体的第二末端佩戴的腕饰上。在这个示例中,智能手表上的第一电极和腕饰上的第二电极都与心脏监测设备通信并受其控制。
在一些实施例中,本文描述的设备被配置成执行机器学习。在一些实施例中,本文描述的设备、系统和方法包括机器学习算法,其分析在一段时间内从个体感测的参数值。在一些实施例中,本文描述的设备、系统和方法包括机器学习算法,其分析从多个个体感测的参数值。在一些实施例中,机器学习算法使得本文描述的设备、系统和方法更准确地识别或预测给定个体中心律失常的存在。例如,在一些实施例中,感测的心电图数据可以被往回比较参数值,例如,感测的心率和活动水平,其触发所述心电图的感测。例如,当感测的心电图确认心律失常的存在,其存在由例如其它参数值之间的不一致所指示时,机器算法使得本文描述的设备或系统从该数据中学习。类似地,例如,当感测的心电图不能确认心律失常的存在,其存在由例如其它参数值之间的不一致所指示时,机器算法使得本文描述的设备或系统也从该数据学习。也就是说,在一些实施例中,机器学习算法将感测到的心电图与使得其(即,心电图)被感测的参数值之间的不一致相关联。心电图上的心律失常的存在或不存在分别强化了心律失常与使得心电图被感测的不一致的相关性,或者与心律失常与不一致的相关性的存在相矛盾。例如,当感测到110的心率并且同时感测到静息活动时,使得心电图被感测,并且当感测的心电图不指示心律失常的存在时,机器学习算法使得本文描述的设备或系统学习到对于该个体而言,静息时110的心率不一定表示心律失常的存在。在一些实施例中,机器学习算法继续引起参数值数据(例如,心率、活动水平和心率变异性)的存储,并且随时间将参数值与相关联的心电图数据进行比较。因此,在一些实施例中,利用随时间感测的多个参数值并且与相关联的心电图数据进行比较,心脏监视设备或系统基于特定个体的参数值之间的不一致提高了其预测或识别心律失常发作的能力。在一些实施例中,因为由机器学习算法确定的基于参数值的心律失常的存在或不存在的可能性非常高,当在特定个体的参数值之间存在特定的不一致时,机器学习算法可以避免感测心电图的需要。
本文描述的用于心脏监测的任何设备、系统和方法可以包括智能手机、膝上型电脑或台式电脑、智能手表或平板电脑中的一个或多个。
不一致监测
图7示出用于不一致监测的算法的示意图。在步骤700中,心率和活动水平由例如本文描述的设备或系统感测。在一些实施例中,使用陀螺仪或加速度计感测活动水平。使用基于光的或其它常用的心率传感器感测心率。测量心率和活动水平的设备可以是相同的设备或多于一个的设备。例如,智能手表或其它可佩戴设备可以被配置成包括心率传感器以及活动水平传感器。
如步骤702所示,如果感测到增加的心率以及正常或静息活动水平,通过设备或系统处理器确定两个值为不一致。也就是说,升高的心率与感测的稳定活动水平不匹配。通过如本文描述的设备或系统的处理器来确定不一致的存在。所识别的不一致可以表明心律失常的存在。如此,在步骤712A中,使得ECG被感测。例如,步骤712A可以包括通过感测到心率和活动水平的设备或系统向用户指示接触ECG感测设备的一个或多个电极并因此感测ECG。ECG感测设备可以是用于感测心率和活动水平的设备或系统的一部分,或者可以是单独的设备。例如,佩戴具有心率和活动水平监测的智能手表的用户接收来自智能手表的听觉和/或视觉指示,以在感测的心率值与感测的活动水平值之间存在不一致时感测ECG。在一些实施例中,智能手表包括一个或多个电极,并且当因为不一致的存在从而感测ECG而从智能手表接收如此做的指示时,用户将一个电极与其身体的左侧接触,以及将一个电极与其身体的右侧接触。在一些实施例中,智能手机包括一个或多个电极,并且当因为不一致的存在从而感测ECG而从智能手表接收如此做的指示时,用户将一个电极与其身体的左侧接触,以及将一个电极与其身体的右侧接触。
如步骤704所示,如果感测到增加的心率以及增加的心率变异性,并且感测到正常或静息的活动水平。增加的心率和HRV与正常或静息活动水平不一致,并且通过设备或系统处理器确定不一致的存在。一旦确定不一致,例如,如本文相对于步骤712A所描述的,在步骤712B中使得ECG被感测。如图所示,在步骤716中,该特定不一致可以指示心房纤维性颤动的存在,并且应该用712B的ECG来确定。
如步骤706所示,如果感测到增加的心率以及降低的心率变异性,并且感测到正常或静息的活动水平。增加的心率、降低的心率变异性以及正常或静息活动水平彼此不一致,并且通过设备或系统处理器确定不一致的存在。一旦确定不一致,例如,如本文相对于步骤712A所描述的,在步骤712C中使得ECG被感测。如图所示,在步骤718中,可能存在室上性心动过速,并且应该用712C的ECG来确定。
如步骤708所示,如果感测到增加的心率以及增加的活动水平,则设备或系统处理器确定不存在不一致,并且在个体可能正在锻炼714时,不记录ECG。
如步骤710所示,如果感测到规律的心率(例如,每分钟60-100次),并且感测到心率变异性增加以及正常或静息活动水平。正常的心率、增加的心率变异性以及正常或静息活动水平彼此不一致,并且通过设备或系统处理器确定不一致的存在。一旦确定不一致,例如,如本文相对于步骤712A所描述的,在步骤712D中使得ECG被感测。如图所示,在步骤718中,可能存在心房纤维性颤动,并且应该用712D的ECG来确定。
在一些实施例中,不一致的存在的确定基于两个或多个感测的生理参数彼此的比较。也就是说,例如,将110的升高的心率与由加速度计感测的静息活动水平进行比较,加速度计测量到个体以0英里/小时的速度行进。110的心率升高,而0英里/小时的活动水平是静息水平,这表明感测的心率与活动水平之间的不一致。在一些实施例中,处理器确定感测的生理参数的值高于或低于阈值或值的范围。在一些实施例中,阈值或值的范围被认为是群体中的正常值或静息值。在一些实施例中,阈值对于用户的生物数据是特定的,使得用户例如与来自普通人群的适当阈值年龄匹配或性别匹配。例如,70岁的用户的活动水平被确定为增加,而7岁的用户的活动水平不会增加。因此,如果感测的生理参数升高、降低或正常(或静息),则通过限定来确定不一致,并且然后将该限定值与另一感测的生理参数的限定值进行比较。也就是说,例如,限定为增加、减少或正常(或静息)的值与也被限定为增加、减少或正常(或静息)的值相比较。
在一些实施例中,本文描述的设备和系统的附加步骤(图7中未示出)运行机器学习算法,使得用于确定感测的生理参数是否是增加、减少、正常(或静息)的阈值和范围被调整以更精确地适合用户。也就是说,例如,通过ECG确定具有心率为80的心律失常的用户将降低他们的心率阈值,使得85的心脏(其在一些情况下是正常的)将被确定为增加的速率。机器学习算法随时间更精确地设置阈值,从而更准确地确定不一致,从而响应于确定不一致的存在而导致ECG的更精确(和有效)的记录。
