Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of clinical medical treatment, and particularly relates to a bladder urine volume monitoring method based on a multi-array-element ultrasonic probe.
Background
The residual urine volume of the bladder is often used as an important basis for understanding the bladder function and judging the urethral obstruction condition, and has become one of the important indexes for diagnosing, treating urinary system diseases and evaluating the treatment effect of a plurality of organizations and tissues internationally, so that the online monitoring of the bladder urine volume is very important.
However, at present, the residual urine volume of the bladder is mainly determined according to the volume of the bladder, and the hot research points of the bladder volume measuring method are mainly an implanted sensor method, a bioimpedance method and an in-vitro imaging method.
Specifically, the sensor implantation method: an implantable strain sensor is implanted in the body, the emitted signal being detectable using an external receiver and having a frequency corresponding to the measured pressure. Bladder volume and pressure are linear. However, this approach presents power, biocompatibility, and telemetry problems. For example, bladder tissue to which the sensor is attached may be fibrotic over time, which may alter the physical properties of the tissue, for example, reducing its ability to stretch, making the technique unusable for long periods of time.
The bio-impedance method comprises the following steps: impedance-based bladder measurement systems utilize the difference in conductivity between urine and bladder tissue, using a belt with multiple electrical contacts to sense the conductance distribution of the pelvic region. Urine conductivity is mainly affected by its saline water concentration. This method is not very successful in practice due to the unreliable electrical contact with the skin and the large number of factors that cause changes in impedance.
In vitro imaging is typically represented by ultrasound volume measurement. The intelligent bladder volume measuring instrument is one of the technologies commonly used by intelligent health monitoring mechanisms in the world at present, the 3D ultrasonic probe is mainly adopted to measure the bladder volume, the accuracy of the 3D ultrasonic probe is higher, the manufacturing cost of the 3D ultrasonic probe is higher compared with that of a 2D probe, the instrument volume is larger, and the instrument is not suitable for the situation needing real-time measurement.
And the portable external ultrasonic detection bladder volume with convenience and high precision has great clinical and market demands. Meanwhile, in order to realize convenient real-time ultrasonic detection of the volume state of the bladder, the existing products are as follows. The system consists of an ultrasonic sensor, a host and a mobile phone (terminal). The sensor includes an ultrasonic sensor, which is placed on the skin outside the bladder body to detect the intensity of reflected waves from the small intestine, thereby estimating the urine volume in the bladder. The method has the advantages of good real-time performance, simple equipment, low cost and the like. But the main disadvantages are that: 1. the single probe is used for measurement, the spatial resolution is low, and the accuracy is not high; 2. the small intestine position behind the bladder needs to be detected, so that the placement position precision requirement is high, and third-party equipment and doctor assistance are needed.
Moreover, with the applicant's knowledge of the background art, there are a number of existing bladder monitoring patents, the most similar of which are listed as methods and devices:
for example, 201580080297. X. Urine volume estimating device and urine volume estimating method (prior art patent), which use a sensor placed on the bladder to detect the intensity of reflected waves from the small intestine, thereby estimating the urine volume in the bladder.
As another example, 201711401220.5: A3D probe is required to be utilized to realize image gradient calculation processing control, and boundary data of each section of a bladder is acquired through rapid edge-pointing processing according to an image gradient value to acquire the volume of the whole bladder.
Also, 201711155019.3: a bladder volume measuring method and apparatus, it mainly is to the multiple directions transmission ultrasonic signal of the bladder; receiving two reflected signals of ultrasonic signals in each direction reflected by bladder walls on two sides of the direction; determining the depth of the bladder in each direction according to the time difference of the two reflected signals in the direction; the volume of the bladder is determined from the depth of the bladder in a plurality of directions.
Therefore, the bladder urine volume monitoring is carried out by adopting the ultrasonic, mainly by adopting the single-array element probe for detection, the imaging of the single-array element ultrasonic probe needs 1-2 minutes, the spatial resolution is low, and the measuring result has a large error rate; if the bladder needs to be scanned by the 3D image, the imaging system has complex algorithm, long measurement time, high equipment cost and large instrument volume, and is not suitable for real-time measurement.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide an improved bladder urine volume monitoring method based on a multi-array element ultrasonic probe.
In order to solve the technical problems, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
a bladder urine amount monitoring method based on a multi-array element ultrasonic probe comprises the following steps:
1) Adopting multi-array element type ultrasonic probes distributed on a flexible substrate, and sticking the probes to the abdominal body surface corresponding to the bladder from the flexible substrate;
2) Sequentially and rapidly exciting each ultrasonic probe, receiving echo signals of each ultrasonic probe, detecting envelope signals of each echo, judging whether bladder back wall echo signals or small intestine echo signals appear or not, judging whether three ultrasonic probes in the plurality of ultrasonic probes directly face an interface of urine in the bladder, the bottom of the bladder and the top of the bladder are respectively defined as X1, xb and Xt, wherein the position of the bottommost ultrasonic probe in the multi-array element ultrasonic probe is defined as an initial position and the value is 0, and the numerical values of X1, xb and Xt are respectively the distance from the ultrasonic probe corresponding to the position to the initial position;
3) And a set value variable Y:
Y=（X1-Xb）φ/ (Xt-Xb)
phi is a correction factor, phi = cos beta 1/cos beta 2, wherein beta 1 is an included angle formed between an extension line of the ultrasonic probe corresponding to X1 and Xb and an extension line of a bladder center line, and beta 2 is an included angle formed between an extension line of the ultrasonic probe corresponding to Xb and Xt and the bladder center line;
4) And setting a urine early warning value Z according to the volume of the bladder of the user, wherein when Z-Y is less than 0, the system terminal gives out a warning and can remotely remind medical care personnel or accompanying personnel to urinate.
Preferably, in step 1), the multiple array element type ultrasonic probes are distributed on the flexible substrate in a linear array shape; and the working frequency range of each ultrasonic probe is 0.1MHz-20MHz. To ensure that penetration of the entire bladder is achieved. Meanwhile, according to the requirement of high and low resolution, the corresponding selection is carried out, and the selection is usually 1-3 MHz.
According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the selected operating frequency of the multi-element ultrasound probe is inversely proportional to the corresponding anterior-posterior distance of the bladder wall. That is, the multi-element ultrasound probe may have the same operating center frequency or different operating center frequencies. The method mainly depends on that if the position of the bladder with larger distance from the front wall to the back wall is measured by the ultrasonic probe, the corresponding position can adopt a probe with lower frequency, and the corresponding position with smaller distance from the front wall to the back wall of the bladder adopts a probe with higher frequency.

Preferably, the plurality of ultrasonic probes are distributed on the flexible substrate at equal intervals or non-uniformly. This is mainly due to the fact that if the ultrasonic probe corresponds to a urine warning region (the middle-upper section of the sensor corresponding to the upper region in the bladder), the distribution density of the sensors in the region can be properly higher than that in the regions at the two ends in order to improve the early warning accuracy.
Further, the flexible substrate mainly plays a role in fixing the ultrasonic probe and adhering the skin. The flexible probe is provided with a plurality of fixed positions for fixing the ultrasonic probe, and the fixed positions can be concave holes, bonding discs or fixed clamps and the like. The flexible substrate has certain stretchability, and can be stretched and bent according to different body types of users. The flexible substrate host material may be flexible tape, flexible rubber, or the like.
According to another specific implementation and preferable aspect of the invention, in the step 2), during the process of sequentially and rapidly exciting each ultrasonic probe, the gating circuit controller is adopted to gate the operation of different ultrasonic probes, and the ultrasonic probes are driven to operate at the high-voltage pulse excitation voltage.
Preferably, a T/R switch is also arranged between the gating circuit controller and the high-voltage pulse exciter.
In addition, in step 4), the urine early warning value is set to operate on the system terminal, and meanwhile, a warning buzzer and/or a warning lamp can be additionally arranged to remind medical care personnel or accompanying personnel.

As shown in fig. 1, the ultrasonic monitoring system for the amount of bladder urine of the present embodiment is wearable, and specifically, the ultrasonic monitoring system includes an ultrasonic detection unit 1, a host 2, and a system terminal 3.
As shown in fig. 2, the ultrasonic detection unit 1 includes a flexible stretchable flexible substrate 10, and a multi-array element type ultrasonic probe 11 linearly distributed on the flexible substrate 10.
The flexible substrate 10 is in a long strip shape, a plurality of interfaces are distributed on the flexible substrate 10, and the ultrasonic probe 11 is detachably connected to the interfaces.
The plurality of ultrasonic probes 11 may be distributed on the flexible substrate 10 at equal intervals or non-uniformly. This is mainly due to the fact that if the ultrasonic probe corresponds to a urine alert zone (the middle-upper section of the sensor corresponding to the upper region in the bladder), the distribution density of the sensors in the zone can be appropriately higher than that in the two end regions in order to improve the early warning accuracy.
Further, the flexible substrate 10 mainly functions to fix the ultrasonic probe 11 and to adhere the skin. The flexible substrate 10 has several fixing positions for fixing the ultrasonic probe 11, which may be a concave hole, an adhesive disc or a fixing clip. The flexible substrate 10 has a certain stretchability, and can be stretched and bent according to different body types of users. The flexible substrate 10 host material may be flexible tape, flexible rubber, or the like.
In this example, each ultrasonic probe 11 operates at a frequency in the range of 0.1MHz to 20MHz. To ensure that penetration of the entire bladder is achieved. Meanwhile, according to the requirement of high resolution, the corresponding selection is carried out, and the selection is usually 1-3 MHz.
In this example, the value of the working frequency selected in the array element type ultrasonic probe is inversely proportional to the value of the front-back distance of the corresponding bladder wall. That is, the array element type ultrasonic probes may have the same center frequency of operation or different center frequencies of operation. The method mainly depends on that if the position of the bladder with larger distance from the front wall to the back wall is measured by the ultrasonic probe, the corresponding position can adopt a probe with lower frequency, and the corresponding position with smaller distance from the front wall to the back wall of the bladder adopts a probe with higher frequency.
For ease of wearing, the diameter of the single ultrasound probe 11 is no greater than 1cm, with typical dimensions of 1-3 mm. There are 9 ultrasound probes 11.
Furthermore, each ultrasound probe 11 has a separate cable connection, allowing for separate control of the individual ultrasound probes 11. The wiring of all probes, and ultimately the bundle, is connected to the mainframe 2 of the system.
The ultrasonic probe 11 is a piezoelectric ultrasonic probe, a capacitance type ultrasonic probe or a film type ultrasonic probe, and the diameter of the single ultrasonic probe 11 is less than or equal to 1cm.
In this example, the host 2 includes a high voltage excitation transmitter 20, a T/R switch 21, a gating circuit controller 22, an AFE receiver 23, a data processor 24, a wireless transmission module 25, and a power supply module 26, where the gating circuit controller 22 is connected to the multiple ultrasound probes 11 through a probe connector 27, and implements working gating of different ultrasound probes; the AFE receiver 23 is used for low noise amplification, band pass filtering and gain amplification of the echo signal; the data processor 24 includes data AD sampling, packet taking, and data storage; the wireless transmission module 25 is used for transmitting the collected data to the system terminal 3.
Specifically, the T/R switch 21 mainly implements gating of the receiving signal and transmitting signal circuits, and avoids the high-voltage excitation voltage from damaging the receiving circuit; the gating circuit controller 22 mainly realizes the working gating of different ultrasonic probes, so that each probe does not need to be excited and received separately; the wireless transmission module 25 mainly transmits the collected data to the terminal through bluetooth or WiFi.
In this case, the main unit 1 further has an alarm 28 for warning a caregiver or a medical staff, for example, that the urine volume is excessive.
The system terminal 3 includes a data receiving module 30, a data analyzing module 31, and a post-processing display module 32. The main functions of the system comprise analyzing data, judging the state of bladder urine, dynamically displaying the bladder state result in real time, and carrying out corresponding setting, reminding, alarming and the like. The terminal can be a smart phone, a tablet computer, a mobile computer or even a smart television.
Referring to fig. 3, the method for monitoring the urine amount of the bladder of the present embodiment includes the following steps:
1) Adopting multi-array element type ultrasonic probes distributed on a flexible substrate, and sticking the probes to the abdominal body surface corresponding to the bladder from the flexible substrate;
2) The method comprises the steps of carrying out working gating on different ultrasonic probes through a gating circuit controller, sequentially and quickly exciting the gated ultrasonic probes at high-voltage pulse excitation voltage, receiving echo signals of all the ultrasonic probes, detecting envelope signals of all the echoes, judging whether bladder back wall echo signals or small intestine echo signals appear, and judging three of the current multiple ultrasonic probes to be over against an interface of urine in the bladder, the bottom of the bladder and the top of the bladder, wherein the three ultrasonic probes are respectively defined as X1, xb and Xt, the position of the bottommost ultrasonic probe in the multiple array element ultrasonic probes is defined as an initial position, the value of the ultrasonic probe is 0, and the numerical values of X1, xb and Xt are respectively the distance from the ultrasonic probe corresponding to the initial position;
3) And a set value variable Y:
Y=（X1-Xb）φ/ (Xt-Xb)
phi is a correction factor, phi = cos beta 1/cos beta 2, wherein beta 1 is an included angle formed between the extension line of the ultrasonic probe corresponding to X1 and Xb and the extension line of the bladder center line, and beta 2 is an included angle formed between the extension line of the ultrasonic probe corresponding to Xb and Xt and the extension line of the bladder center line;
4) And setting a urine early warning value Z according to the volume of the bladder of the user, wherein when Z-Y is less than 0, the system terminal gives out a warning and can remotely remind medical care personnel or accompanying personnel to urinate.
In addition, it should be further noted that the corresponding relationship between Y and bladder volume can be set universally by using an internal default model of the system itself, or a more detailed relationship can be established for an individual by medical 3D volume imaging detection in advance. If the value of Y is a normal value, the state display lamp is green; if the alarm value is exceeded, the status display lamp turns red and gives an alarm.
Meanwhile, after the host is in wireless connection with the terminal, the numerical change and animation display of the bladder volume Y can be checked in real time on the terminal software. The self-defining of the corresponding relation between the Y and the bladder volume and the setting of an early warning value can be realized at the terminal, an alarm is given, and medical care personnel, family members and the like are remotely reminded in case of emergency.
