Description

Non-contact electrocardio detection circuit
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of medical signal detection, in particular to a non-contact electrocardiogram monitoring method.
Background
The main reasons for traffic accidents are the bad physical and mental states of drivers such as drunk driving, fatigue driving, emotional abnormality, sudden diseases and the like; the aerospace medicine guarantee technology becomes an important foundation for promoting the development of manned aerospace engineering, and a new technology and new equipment for monitoring the health condition of astronauts become problems to be solved urgently; daily electrocardiographic monitoring of heart disease patients is more indispensable. The electrocardio is the most important index for judging the physical and mental states, is an important basis for clinical diagnosis and disease condition evaluation, and can reflect the physical and mental states of a person through long-term real-time electrocardio monitoring. Therefore, it is very necessary to perform electrocardiographic monitoring on the above-mentioned personnel. However, drivers, astronauts and patients with heart disease require continuous electrocardiographic monitoring for a long time and certain freedom of movement, so that a non-contact non-inductive measurement is more preferred in electrocardiographic monitoring.
Conventional wet electrodes require the use of hydrogels to increase the conductivity of the signal path between the skin and the electrode, are prone to skin irritation, and are not suitable for long-term use. Dry electrodes, like wet electrodes, also require direct electrical contact with the skin, and furthermore, dry electrodes without a conductive gel are much more sensitive to skin conditions and are very susceptible to body movement. Compared with the traditional wet electrode and dry electrode, the non-contact electrode does not need to be in direct contact with the body of a patient when in use, does not need to be prepared in advance, does not need to consider the body surface state of a user, and can enable the user to detect electrocardiosignals through an insulating layer material. However, because the capacitance value formed by coupling the collecting electrode and the human body is very low, and is in pF magnitude, the input resistance of the detection circuit at least should be in T omega magnitude to obtain the electrocardio voltage through voltage division. This requires the input impedance of the back-end acquisition circuit to be very high. Because the gate of the field effect transistor at the input end of the high input impedance operational amplifier is charged by leakage current without an input bias network and the amplifier is saturated in a short time, the high input impedance of the operational amplifier cannot be directly used for the capacitive coupling type acquisition of human body bioelectricity signals.
Aiming at the existing application requirements and the defects of the prior art, the invention provides a bootstrap method for greatly improving the input resistance of the detection circuit, improving the resistance value of the input resistance to controllable multiple of the actual resistance value, and utilizing resistance voltage division to avoid the bootstrap circuit to enable the whole circuit to enter a self-oscillation state, thereby solving the problem that the circuit in a non-inductive non-contact electrocardio detection circuit needs ultrahigh input impedance, and further realizing non-contact electrocardio detection.
