Description
技术领域
本发明涉及用于提供增强的PAP度量的方法。本发明还涉及用于执行这样的方法的系统。
背景技术
许多个人在睡眠期间遭受呼吸紊乱。睡眠呼吸暂停是全世界数百万人遭受这样的睡眠呼吸紊乱的常见例子。睡眠呼吸暂停的一种类型是阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停(OSA),这是一种由于气道的阻塞而无法呼吸从而反复中断睡眠的状况,通常在上气道或咽部区域。通常认为气道的阻塞至少部分是由于稳定上气道段的肌肉的总体松弛所致,由此造成组织使气道塌陷。睡眠呼吸暂停综合征的另一种类型是中枢性呼吸暂停,这由于没有来自大脑呼吸中心的呼吸信号而呼吸停止。呼吸暂停状况(无论是阻塞性的、中枢性的、还是阻塞性与中枢性的组合的混合性的)被定义为完全或几乎停止呼吸,例如峰值呼吸气体流减少90%或者更多。
患有睡眠呼吸暂停的那些人在睡眠期间经历睡眠碎片化以及间歇性的通气的完全或几乎完全停止,可能具有严重程度的氧合血红蛋白去饱和。这些症状可能在临床上转化为极度日间嗜睡、心律不齐、肺动脉高压、充血性心力衰竭和/或认知功能障碍。睡眠呼吸暂停的其他后果包括右心室功能障碍、在清醒期间以及在睡眠期间的二氧化碳滞留、以及持续降低的动脉血氧张力。睡眠呼吸暂停患者可能因这些因素以及在驾驶和/或操作潜在危险器械时发生事故的风险增加而导致过多死亡。
即使患者没有遭受气道的完全或几乎完全的阻塞,也已知在仅气道的部分阻塞的情况下也会发生不利影响,诸如从睡眠唤醒。气道的部分阻塞通常导致浅呼吸,被称为呼吸不足。呼吸不足通常被定义为峰值呼吸气体流减少50%或更多。其他类型的睡眠呼吸紊乱包括但不限于:上气道阻力综合征(UARS)和气道的振动,诸如咽壁的振动,通常被称为打鼾。
众所周知,通过对患者的气道施加持续正气压(CPAP)来处置睡眠呼吸紊乱。该正压有效地“夹持”气道,由此保持到肺部的开放通道。还已知提供一种正压疗法,其中,被递送给患者的气体的压力随着患者的呼吸周期而变化,或者随着患者的呼吸努力而变化,以提高患者的舒适度。这种压力支持技术被称为双水平压力支持,其中,被递送给患者的吸气气道正压(IPAP)高于呼气气道正压(EPAP)。还已知提供一种正压疗法,其中,基于检测到的患者的状况,诸如患者是否正在经历呼吸暂停和/或呼吸不足,来自动地调节压力。该压力支持技术被称为自动滴定型压力支持,因为压力支持设备试图向患者提供仅与处置呼吸紊乱所需的压力一样高的压力。在任何上述疗法中所使用的设备通常可以被称为气道正压(PAP)设备。
如刚刚所描述的压力支持疗法涉及将患者接口设备放置在患者的面部上,所述患者接口设备包括具有柔软、柔性的密封垫的面罩部件。所述面罩部件可以是但不限于:覆盖患者的鼻子的鼻罩、覆盖患者的鼻子和嘴巴的鼻/口罩、或者覆盖患者的面部的全面罩。这样的患者接口设备也可以采用其他患者接触部件,诸如前额支撑件、脸颊垫和下巴垫。所述患者接口设备通常通过头套部件被固定到患者的头部。所述患者接口设备被连接到气体递送管或导管,并且将所述压力支持设备与所述患者的气道进行接口,从而能够将呼吸气体流从压力/流生成设备递送到所述患者的气道。
当前的PAP设备能够向健康护理机构报告针对患者的度量,以反映PAP使用量(即依从性)和睡眠期间的治疗的有效性(例如,呼吸暂停-呼吸不足指数(AHI))。然而,由当前的PAP设备报告的度量仅反映当PAP设备处于使用中时的处置的效果,并且因此,可能无法提供对患者睡眠的完整描绘(picture),因为患者在睡眠时有时可能没有运行PAP设备。
发明内容
因此,本发明的实施例通过提供患者的睡眠的更完整的描绘来改进现有的系统和方法,健康护理提供者可以利用所述描绘来改善被提供给患者的处置。

所述方法还可以包括:传送所述增强的PAP度量。
所述方法还可以包括:分析所述增强的PAP度量,并且调整由所述压力支持设备给予所述患者的所述处置。
作为本发明的又一方面,提供了一种用于提供患者的睡眠时段的增强的PAP度量的方法。所述睡眠时段具有第一部分和第二部分,在第一部分期间,患者接收来自压力支持设备的处置,在第二部分中,患者未接收来自所述压力支持设备的处置。所述方法包括:由所述压力支持设备的多个传感器接收在睡眠时段的第一部分期间获得的数据;由多个辅助设备接收在所述睡眠时段的第一部分期间获得的补充数据;根据所述数据和所述补充数据中的一项或者这两者,来确定在所述睡眠时段的第一部分期间的一个或多个SDB事件的发生;识别在由所述压力支持设备的所述多个传感器与所述多个辅助设备检测到的SDB事件之间的相关性;由所述多个辅助设备接收在所述睡眠时段的第二部分期间获得的补充数据;并且利用在所述睡眠时段的第一部分期间获得的数据以及与在所述睡眠时段的第二部分期间获得的补充数据的相关性,来确定患者的整个睡眠时段的增强的PAP度量。
所述的方法还包括:传送所述增强的PAP度量。
所述方法还可以包括:利用所述增强的PAP度量来调整由所述压力支持设备提供给所述患者的处置。
本发明的这些和其他目的、特征和特性,以及操作的方法和结构的相关元件的功能以及零件的组合和制造的经济性,将在参考附图考虑以下描述和随附权利后变得更加明显,所有附图形成了本说明书的部分,其中,相似的附图标记在各个附图中表示对应的部分。然而,应当明确地理解,附图仅出于说明和描述的目的,而并不旨在作为对本发明的限制的定义。
附图说明
图1是根据本发明的一个示例性实施例的包括压力生成设备的气道压力支持系统的局部示意图;并且
图2和图3是用于执行根据本发明的示例性实施例的方法的系统的局部示意图。
具体实施方式
根据需要,在本文中公开了本发明的详细实施例;然而,应当理解,所公开的实施例仅仅是本发明的示例,其可以以各种形式来体现。因此,在本文中所公开的特定结构和功能细节不应当被解读为限制性的,而仅仅是作为权利要求的基础以及作为教导本领域技术人员以实际上任何适当的详细结构来不同地采用本发明的代表性基础。
如在本文中所使用的,单数形式的“一”、“一个”和“该”包括复数形式,除非上下文另外明确指出。如在本文中所使用的,“和/或”应当意指被这样的短语分开的一个或两个元件(例如,A和/或B将意指A、B或者A和B这两者)。如本文中所使用的,两个或更多个零件或部件被“耦合”的陈述应当意指只要发生链接,这些零件就能够直接地或间接地(即,通过一个或多个中间零件或部件)接合在一起或者一起操作。如在本文中所使用的,“直接地耦合”意指两个元件彼此直接接触。如在本文中所使用的,“固定地耦合”或“固定”意指两个部件被耦合以便相对于彼此保持恒定的固定取向。如本文中所使用的,“选择性地耦合”意指两个部件以允许部件以可预测的、可重复的方式容易地耦合或解耦而不损坏任何一个部件的方式来耦合。除非在本文中另外特别描述,否则仅描述为“耦合”的任何部件也可以“固定地”或“选择性地”耦合,而不背离本发明的范围。
如本文中所使用的,词语“整体的”意指部件被创建为单个零件或单元。亦即,包括单独创建并且然后被耦合在一起作为单元的工件的部件不是“整体的”零件或主体。如本文中所使用的,两个或更多个零件或部件彼此“接合”的陈述应当意指零件直接地或者通过一个或多个中间零件或部件彼此施加力。如在本文中所使用的,术语“数量”应当意指一或大于一的整数(即,多个)。
在本文中所使用的方向性短语,诸如,例如但不限于:顶部、底部、左、右、上、下、前、后以及其派生词,与附图中所示的元件的方向有关,并且除非在本文中明确陈述,否则不限制权利要求。
在图1中示出了示例性气道压力支持系统2,其可以被用作本发明的一个特定的非限制性示例性实施例的部分。气道压力支持系统2包括压力支持设备4,压力支持设备4容纳鼓风机组件6,其示例将在下文进一步详细描述。鼓风机组件6通过被设置为压力支持设备4的部分的过滤空气入口8从周围大气中接收大体由箭头C指示的呼吸气体,并且从其生成呼吸气体流,以在相对较高和较低的压力下(即,通常等于或高于环境大气压)递送到患者10的气道,以生成压力以经由患者回路12、14向患者10提供压力补偿。在示例性实施例中,鼓风机组件6能够提供压力范围为2-30cmH2O的呼吸气体流。大体由箭头D指示的来自鼓风机组件6的呼吸气体的加压流经由递送导管12被递送至任何已知构造的呼吸面罩或患者接口14,所述呼吸面罩或患者接口14通常由患者10佩戴或者以其他方式被附接到患者10以将呼吸气体流传送到患者10的气道。递送导管12和患者接口设备14通常被统称为患者回路。
在图1中所示的压力支持系统2是所谓的单分支系统,这意指患者回路仅包括将患者10连接到压力支持系统2的递送导管12。这样,在递送导管12中设置有排气口16,用于排出来自所述系统的呼出气体,如由箭头E所指示的。应当注意,排气口16能够被设置在除了或替代递送导管12的其他位置处,诸如在患者接口设备14中。也应当理解,排气口16能够具有各种配置,这取决于从压力支持系统2排出气体的期望的方式。
本概念还设想到了压力支持系统2能够是两分支系统,其具有被连接至患者10的递送导管和排气导管。在两分支系统(也被称为双分支系统)中,排气导管输送来自患者10的排气,并且在距患者10的远端处包括排气阀。在这种实施例中,通常主动地控制排气阀以维持系统中的期望的水平或压力,这通常被称为呼气末正压(PEEP)。
此外,在图1中所示的示例性实施例中,患者接口14是鼻罩/口罩。然而,应当理解,患者接口14能够包括鼻罩、鼻枕、气管导管、气管内导管、或者提供合适的气流连通功能的任何其他设备。同样地,出于本发明的目的,短语“患者接口”能够包括递送导管12以及将加压呼吸气体的源耦合到患者10的任何其他结构。
在所图示的实施例中,压力支持系统2包括阀18形式的压力控制器,其被设置在内部递送导管20中,内部递送导管20被设置在压力支持设备4的壳体中。阀18控制来自鼓风机组件6的被递送到患者10的呼吸气体流的压力。处于本目的,鼓风机组件6和阀18被统称为压力生成系统,因为其共同作用以生成和控制被递送给患者10的气体的压力和/或流量。然而,应当理解,本发明设想到了用于控制被递送给患者10的气体的压力的其他技术,诸如单独地或者与压力控制阀组合地改变鼓风机组件6的速度。因此,取决于用于控制被递送给患者10的呼吸气体流的压力的技术,阀18是任选的。如果取消了阀18,则所述压力生成系统仅对应于鼓风机组件6,并且例如通过控制鼓风机组件6的速度来控制患者回路中的气体的压力。
压力支持系统2还包括流量传感器22,流量传感器22测量在递送导管20和递送导管12之内的呼吸气体的流量。在图1中所示的特定实施例中,流量传感器22与递送导管20和12成一直线被插入,最优选地在阀18的下游。压力支持系统2额外地包括压力传感器28,其检测在递送导管20中的加压流体的压力。尽管由流量传感器22测量出流量并且由压力传感器28测量出压力的点被图示为在压力支持设备4之内,但是应当理解,进行实际流量和压力测量的位置可以是沿着递送导管20或12的任何位置。由流量传感器22测量的呼吸气体流量以及由压力传感器28检测的压力被提供给处理单元24,以确定在患者10处的气体流量(Q患者)。
处理单元24包括:处理部分,其可以是例如微处理器、微控制器或者某种其他合适的处理设备;以及存储器部分,其可以在处理部分内部或者被可操作地耦合到所述处理部分,并且提供针对由所述处理部分能执行以控制压力支持系统2的操作的数据和软件的存储介质。处理单元24被构造为接收一个或多个传感器的输出,诸如先前讨论的那些,其被构造为收集与压力支持疗法的有效性相关的数据。处理单元24还被构造为在向患者提供压力支持疗法时分析传感器的输出以确定患者回路中的患者气流和压力波形。
提供输入/输出设备26,其用于设置压力支持系统2所使用的各种参数,以及用于向诸如临床医师或护理人员的用户显示和输出信息和数据。
在图2中部分地示意性示出了根据本发明的一个示例实施例的用于执行用于提供患者(未示出)的增强的PAP度量的方法的系统100。系统100包括压力支持设备,诸如先前在图1中所描述的压力支持设备4,其具有处理单元24。系统100还包括多个(示例中示出为四个)辅助设备102A、102B、102C、102D,所述辅助设备被构造为检测和收集与睡眠有关的数据并且各自处于与其压力支持设备4和处理单元24的无线通信(例如,经由蓝牙)中。更具体地,所述多个辅助设备包括智能手表102A、智能电话102B、床侧睡眠监测器102C以及床垫下传感器102D。被构造为由患者佩戴的智能手表102A被构造为检测患者的心率和体动记录中的一项或者这两者,并且将与其相关的数据无线地传送给处理单元24。智能电话102B包括被构造为监测患者的呼吸和其他声音的传感器,并且将与其相关的数据无线地传送给处理单元24。另外,智能电话102B可以被用于监测床振动并且将与其相关的数据无线地传送给处理单元24。床侧睡眠监测器102C提供对患者的呼吸和身体运动的非接触式感测,并且将与其相关的数据无线地传送给处理单元24。床垫下传感器102D包括被构造为检测患者的心率、呼吸率和运动的传感器,并且将与其相关的数据无线地传送给处理单元24。应当意识到,尽管在系统100中采用了四个示例性辅助设备102A-102D,但是这样的设备的数量和/或类型可以变化(可以采用除了所示的那些设备之外的设备,例如但不限于SpO2传感器),而不背离本发明的范围。
类似于现有的压力支持设备,处理单元24被编程为利用压力支持设备4内的传感器(例如,流量传感器22、压力传感器28)以在患者使用眼里支持设备24时总结所述患者的睡眠质量(例如,睡眠呼吸紊乱事件)。与在患者未使用压力支持设备时不记录或分析任何内容的现有布置不同,处理单元24还被编程为接收和分析来自多个辅助设备102A-102D中的一个或多个辅助设备的补充数据,并且在压力支持设备4未处于使用中但是由辅助设备102A-102D中的一个或多个辅助设备检测到睡眠时,使用这样的数据来测量(或估计)患者的睡眠质量。处理单元24还被编程为除了使用压力支持设备4时收集到的数据之外,还利用这样的补充数据来创建“全夜”睡眠质量度量,该度量反映了当压力支持设备4处于使用中时的夜间的时段以及压力支持设备24未处于使用中时的夜间的时段的患者的睡眠质量。应当意识到,由于辅助设备102A-102D可能不具有直接检测SDB事件所需的呼吸感测,所以组合的度量可以是更一般的睡眠质量度量(例如,指示不良睡眠的体动记录)。然后,能够将这样的“全夜”睡眠质量度量(经由本地无线、蜂窝、互联网或者任何合适的布置)传送给一个或多个远程电子设备104(例如,智能电话106、平板计算机108或任何其他合适的电子设备),以供医师或护理提供者进一步检查。
在图3中部分地示意性示出了根据本发明的另一示例性实施例的用于执行用于提供患者(未示出)的增强的PAP度量的方法的系统200。系统200通常包括与系统100相同的部件,其以与在系统200中相似的方式起作用,但是通常有一个明显的例外。代替与压力支持设备4的处理单元24通信的辅助部件102A-102D,辅助部件102A-102D以及处理单元24直接地或者间接地(例如,经由本地无线和互联网)与远程处理单元210无线地通信(例如,经由任何适当的本地或远距离布置),远程处理单元210可以是诸如在图3中所示的远程电子设备104(例如,智能电话106或平板计算机108)的部分,其可以位于基于云的服务器上,或者任何其他合适的位置。以与处理单元24类似的方式对远程处理单元210进行编程,以创建“全夜”睡眠质量度量,其反映当压力支持设备4处于使用中时的夜间的时段以及当压力支持设备24未处于使用中时的夜间的时段的患者的睡眠质量。
在备选实施例中,压力支持设备4的开始和停止时间(即,患者开始治疗的时间以及患者脱下面罩或关闭CPAP的时间)可以被用于细分来自由辅助设备102A-102D提供的数据的睡眠质量相关数据的报告。作为示例,在早上,睡眠治疗系统可以针对PAP处于使用中的夜间的时段和PAP未处于使用中的那些时段单独地总结来自智能手表的体动记录数据,以便突出当PAP处于使用中时的患者睡眠更安静的程度(运动较少)。
当使用多个辅助设备时,诸如在系统100或200中,可以采用交叉检查协议以排除错误的测量结果。例如,如果连接了四个辅助设备并且其中的一个设备检测到呼吸暂停,而其他三个设备未检测到,则检测到的事件可能会被排除在全夜总结中,因为这很可能是错误的检测。
诸如在本文中所描述的系统还可包括“校准模式”,其同时地从压力支持设备和连接的辅助设备收集数据,以便识别由压力支持设备检测到的SDB事件与辅助数据之间的相关性。这样的校准使睡眠治疗系统在PAP未处于使用中时(在校准时段完成之后)更好地估计SDB事件。
在本发明的示例性实施例中,当一个连接的辅助设备发生故障或者与系统断开连接时,能够使用其他系统数据(例如,PAP传感器数据或者来自其他辅助设备的数据)中的趋势来估计故障设备的数据,以便在数据中“填补任何空缺”。作为示例,如果来自一个连接的辅助设备的数据在2天内不可用,但是所有其他数据看起来都是“正常”,则能够使用先前从故障设备中收集到的“正常”数据来估算缺失的数据。
因此,根据上述内容可以意识到,本发明的实施例提供了对患者睡眠的更加完整的分析,医师或其他护理人员能够采用所述分析来改善患者的处置。
尽管出于说明的目的已经基于当前被认为是最实际和优选的实施例对本发明进行了详细描述,但是应当理解,这样的细节仅用于该目的,本发明并不限于所公开的实施例,而是相反地,旨在覆盖所附权利要求书的主旨和范围内的修改和等同布置。例如,应当理解,本发明设想到了在可能的范围内,任何实施例的一个或多个特征可以与任何其他实施例的一个或多个特征相组合。
在权利要求中,放在括号之间的任何附图标记都不应当被解释为对权利要求的限制。单词“包括”或“包含”不排除权利要求中列出的元件或步骤以外的元件或步骤的存在。在列举若干单元的设备权利要求中,这些单元中的若干个单元可以由同一硬件项来体现。在元件之前的单词“一”或“一个”不排除存在多个这样的元件。在枚举若干单元的任何设备权利要求中,这些单元中的若干个单元可以由同一硬件项来体现。事实上,在互不相同的从属权利要求中记载某些要素并不指示不能将这些要素组合使用。
