in step S101, acquiring a low-frequency electrotherapy scheme and preset sleep period information of insomnia symptoms of an insomnia patient;

specifically, insomnia is an independent syndrome and a symptom of various diseases, the electrotherapy intensity is set for the situations of difficult sleep onset, easy wakening, early wakening, poor sleep quality and the like, the condition of the insomnia patients is obviously facilitated, and particularly the electrotherapy intensity for the symptoms of easy wakening and early wakening is required to be lower than that of the patients with difficult sleep onset so as to avoid adverse effects caused by an electrotherapy mode;

in step S102, according to the low-frequency electrotherapy scheme, introducing micro-current for helping insomnia patients to fall asleep into a human body, and keeping for a certain period of time to treat insomnia symptoms;

specifically, the positive electrode and the negative electrode are clamped and placed on the left ear lobe and the right ear lobe, so that the duration of micro-current assisted sleep is defaulted to be 10-20 minutes, and then the current value is gradually reduced to 0 from the preset current value, and the stimulation effect on the brain of a human body is small;

in step S103, determining the sleep condition of the insomnia patient receiving the low-frequency electrotherapy program, wherein the sleep condition comprises a shallow sleep state and a wake-up state;

specifically, there is a biological rhythm in sleep, and 5 sleep stages including a sleep-in period, a light sleep period, a sound sleep period, a deep sleep period, and a rapid eye movement period are repeatedly experienced, the sleep stage is a wake-up period when the sleep is about to end, and the low-frequency electrotherapy scheme is a targeted method for the light sleep period and the wake-up period;

in step S104, if the sleep status is in the wake-up state, it is determined whether to re-execute the low-frequency electrotherapy program according to the preset sleep period information.

Particularly, for the insomnia patients who are difficult to fall asleep, easy to wake up and early awake, before the sleep substance emitted by the brain completely disappears, the insomnia patients are induced to sleep again, so that the success rate of falling asleep again can be improved.

Wherein, as shown in fig. 2, in step S101, the acquiring the low frequency electrotherapy scheme and preset sleep period information about insomnia symptom information of the insomnia patient comprises the following steps S201-S203:

in step S201, a matching database of the insomnia symptom information and the low-frequency electrotherapy information and a sleep duration information database are obtained;

in step S202, matching low-frequency electrotherapy information is determined according to insomnia symptom information of the insomnia patient input terminal;

specifically, the matching database of the low-frequency electrotherapy information should include a comprehensive electrotherapy mode aiming at the symptoms of difficult falling asleep, easy waking, early waking, poor sleeping quality and the like, and the main set standard is that the insomnia patients difficult falling asleep are stimulated by strong low-frequency current, the insomnia patients easy waking and early waking are stimulated by weak low-frequency current, the insomnia patients poor sleeping quality are stimulated by long low-frequency current, the insomnia patients difficult falling asleep, easy waking and early waking are stimulated by strong low-frequency current and weak low-frequency current, and the insomnia patients can be directly selected according to combination options, it is worth mentioning that the matching database of the low-frequency electrotherapy information can also be loaded with a diagnosis and treatment system, and can give more scientific diagnosis and treatment suggestions by establishing remote communication with a consultation specialist in the diagnosis and treatment system, and the consultation specialist can send the suggested low-frequency electrotherapy options to a terminal, forming a new combination option;

in step S203, sleep duration information is determined according to the request information of the insomnia patient input terminal.

Specifically, the sleep duration information database is divided into setting information of 1-2 hours of afternoon nap and setting information of 7-10 hours of late sleep, the 1-2 hours of afternoon nap can be divided into 6-12 grades, the 7-10 hours of late sleep can be divided into 2-3 grades, adjustment can be freely selected according to the sleep requirement of an insomnia patient, and the design is humanized;

in step S302, if the alpha wave signal is detected to change from at least more, the insomnia patient receiving the low-frequency electrotherapy scheme is determined to be in a light sleep state;

specifically, the mature brain wave monitoring technology can identify the sleep period of a human, and in the sleep period, the brain waves are alpha waves which gradually decrease to enter a shallow sleep period, so that low-amplitude theta waves and beta waves are irregularly mixed together, and the brain waves are in a flat trend, which is a data basis for judging that an insomnia patient is in a shallow sleep state;

in step S303, if it is detected that the brain wave signal changes rapidly since the light sleep state, it is determined that the insomnia patient who received the low-frequency electrotherapy protocol is in a wake-up state;

specifically, the sleep is in a fast alternation type during the falling asleep period, the light asleep period, the sound asleep period, the deep asleep period and the fast eye movement period, the change of brain waves is gradual, and any one or more of wave signals, theta wave signals, delta wave signals, kappa wave signals and beta wave signals can be rapidly reduced within a few seconds, which is a data basis for judging that the insomnia patient is in an awakening state.

in step S401, when the insomnia patient is detected to be in a first light sleep state, recording the sleep inception time of the insomnia patient;

in step S402, when it is detected that the insomnia patient is in a light sleep state, if an interval between the light sleep state and a sleep initial time is greater than or equal to sleep duration information required by the insomnia patient, executing a wake-up scheme;

specifically, the occurrence rate of various diseases can be increased when the sleeper sleeps too much or too little, and compared with the prior art, the discomfort of the body can be reduced when the sleeper is awakened in the light sleep period, the comatose time is shortened, the sleeper is awakened relatively easily in the first light sleep period after the sleeping time exceeds the standard time, and the sleeper is awakened in the modes of noise playing and vibration prompting;

in step S403, when it is detected that the insomnia patient is in the wake-up state, if the interval between the wake-up state and the sleep start time is greater than or equal to the sleep duration information required by the insomnia patient, the low-frequency electrotherapy scheme is not executed;

in step S404, when it is detected that the insomnia patient is in the wake-up state, if the interval between the wake-up state and the sleep start time is less than the sleep duration information required by the insomnia patient, re-executing the low-frequency electrotherapy scheme;

specifically, after the sleeping time exceeds the standard time, the patient wakes up and cannot cause the implementation of the low-frequency electrotherapy scheme, otherwise, before the sleeping time does not exceed the standard time, the patient wakes up and can cause the implementation of the low-frequency electrotherapy scheme, and particularly for the insomnia patients who are difficult to fall asleep, easy to wake up and early to wake up, before the sleep substance emitted by the brain completely disappears, the sleep induction is performed on the insomnia patients again, so that the success rate of falling asleep again can be improved, and the sleeping time of the insomnia patients can be prolonged to the greatest extent.
