Description

Intelligent stethoscope for internal medicine
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of stethoscopes, and particularly relates to an intelligent stethoscope for internal medicine.
Background
Heart sounds and respiratory sounds are physiological characteristics produced in the movement of the human heart and in the respiratory movement of the human body, which contain physiological and pathological information of the heart and respiratory system. The stethoscope is only innovated in hardware links in the development process of electronics, and the stethoscope is in the form that an electronic microphone receives sound and then filters, operational amplification, stores and the like of various electronic hardware, so that the functions of generating digital files, storing and repeatedly playing are realized by recording auscultation sound information. The purpose is to make the signals of the heart sounds and the respiratory sounds more clear and accurate, but because the interference noise of the sounds of the heart sounds and the respiratory sounds is overlapped with the signals in frequency spectrum, the interference noise cannot be effectively eliminated by adopting a common hardware function, and more effective signal processing technology is required to eliminate the interference noise, so that the traditional electronic stethoscope cannot really assist doctors in clinical diagnosis.
The patent with Chinese patent publication number CN102697520B discloses an electronic stethoscope for assisting diagnosis, which is used for intelligently identifying physiological parameters such as heart sounds and breath sounds, distinguishing the types of the heart sounds and the breath sounds and extracting disease characteristics. The system comprises a processor unit, a signal acquisition unit, a peripheral driving unit, a storage unit and a data bus interface unit, wherein the signal acquisition unit is connected with the processor unit, the signal acquisition unit acquires heart sound and breath sound signals and performs pre-processing on the heart sound and the breath sound signals, the processor unit specifically realizes a pattern recognition algorithm for the heart sound and the breath sound, separates the heart sound and the breath sound signals, completes intelligent recognition and classification of the heart sound and the breath sound signals, and manages other hardware units; the storage unit is used for storing the program and the extension program thereof, storing heart sound breathing sound data, standard heart sound and breathing sound, and hearing sound patterns of typical cases of diseases and outputting and playing; the peripheral driving unit and the data bus interface unit are used for realizing peripheral operation function driving and data communication.
The stethoscope has the advantages of high accuracy, easy operation, convenient carrying, rapid diagnosis and intelligent identification, and assists doctors in auscultation. However, because of use in a clinical setting, stethoscopes may contact multiple patients, with the risk of cross-infection. Even with the disinfection measures, there is still a need to ensure that all parts of the stethoscope can be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected to prevent pathogen transmission. And although the processor unit has a pattern recognition algorithm, there may be problems with signal noise, interference or variations in some cases, which may affect the performance and accuracy of the algorithm. Signal optimization and noise suppression may require additional techniques and algorithms to cope with complex clinical situations.
The manner in which the sound transmission medium affects the sound quality is complex and diverse. The water quantity carried by the articles is different, and the sound generated during knocking can also change, for example, the glass is filled with water with different components, and the cup is knocked to generate different sounds. Different media can affect the propagation speed of sound, the frequency response, and the color of sound. For example, sound traveling in air may be affected by humidity, temperature, and air pressure, while sound traveling in a solid or liquid is affected by the density and elasticity of the medium. Therefore, this scheme has proposed an intelligent stethoscope for internal medicine.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve the problems, the invention provides the intelligent stethoscope for the medical department, which solves the limitations of the traditional stethoscope in terms of sanitation, signal optimization and data analysis, improves the auscultation effect and quality, and provides more accurate, convenient, safe and intelligent auscultation experience for doctors.
In order to achieve the above object, the technical scheme of the present invention is as follows: an intelligent stethoscope for medical department, comprising
The hearing head assembly is used for being close to a patient and acquiring heartbeat sound signals; an auxiliary hearing assembly is magnetically attracted to one side of the hearing head assembly, and the auxiliary hearing assembly is used for acquiring breathing sound signals; the inside of the listening head component is fixedly connected with an ultrasonic sensor, an amplifier and a digital signal processor;

the intelligent disinfection component is used for spraying disinfectant to the auditory head component for disinfection after the auditory head component is attached to the skin; and utilizes disinfectant to assist in sound transmission;
the water detection assembly is used for monitoring the residual quantity of the disinfectant on the head assembly and comprises a knocking piece and a sound wave sensor, the knocking piece and the sound wave sensor are both arranged in the head assembly, and the sound wave sensor acquires the difference relation between the presence and absence of water on the head assembly through the sound wave characteristics acquired by knocking the head assembly to form a correction coefficient and acquire the residual quantity of the disinfectant on the head assembly;
the processing component is also used for carrying out signal correction through the residual quantity of the disinfectant on the hearing head component, when carrying out signal correction, the received sound signal is corrected according to the measured water quantity by utilizing a correction algorithm, and the gain, the frequency characteristic or the phase of the signal is adjusted according to the change of the water quantity by the correction algorithm.
The principle and the beneficial effect of the scheme are adopted: the stethoscope not only can acquire heartbeat sound signals, but also can acquire breathing sound signals through the auxiliary hearing assembly, so that more comprehensive physiological information is provided for doctors, and the stethoscope is helpful for diagnosing the condition of patients more accurately. Noise precipitation, classification extraction and standard pattern comparison functions of the processing assembly are beneficial to filtering noise, so that a doctor can more clearly distinguish heartbeat sound and respiratory sound, and auscultation accuracy is improved.
The intelligent disinfection component enables the stethoscope head component to disinfect, reduces the risk of cross infection and improves the sanitary safety of the stethoscope. Meanwhile, the stethoscope can directly contact the skin to auscultate by utilizing the disinfectant to assist the sound transmission, so that the interference of clothes on auscultation is avoided, and the tone quality of sound received by the stethoscope is improved. Because the common stethoscope can hear the sound with the frequency ranging from 20 Hz to 20000 Hz, the transmission effect of the sound between the stethoscope head and the skin can be improved by utilizing the disinfectant to assist the sound transmission, the signal transmission efficiency and the fitting degree of the stethoscope are improved, the stethoscope can receive partial infrasonic waves which cannot be heard by the common stethoscope, and the sound with lower frequency can be heard, thereby doctors can evaluate the health condition of patients more comprehensively, and abnormal conditions can be detected more easily.

The sound signal is corrected by a correction algorithm in combination with the residual quantity of the disinfectant on the auditory head assembly, so that the accuracy and the reliability of the signal are improved, wherein a correlation model can be established by utilizing the correlation between the quantity of the transmission medium and the sound quality. According to the change of the residual quantity of the disinfectant, the processing component can automatically adjust the parameters of the sound signals, adapt to different auscultation conditions and environments, and improve the adaptability and the flexibility.
Therefore, the intelligent stethoscope for internal medicine uses residual disinfectant to disinfect the stethoscope head assembly by combining innovative functions, improves the sanitary safety of the stethoscope, solves the limitations of the traditional stethoscope in terms of sanitation, signal optimization and data analysis, improves the auscultation effect and quality, and provides more accurate, convenient, safe and intelligent auscultation experience for doctors.

The converted text is further parsed to identify specific functions or operations that the physician wishes to perform, such as "turn up the amplifier volume" and "switch to breath sound mode".
Once the physician's instructions are recognized, the voice command and control component communicates with other components to perform the operations required by the physician. The doctor can switch different modes of the stethoscope through voice commands, such as a heart beat sound mode, a breathing sound mode, a noise analysis mode and the like. The doctor can control different functions, such as a switch, volume adjustment of the amplifier 3, recording auscultation data, etc., using voice commands. The doctor can adjust different parameters such as audio processing mode, filter setting, etc. through voice command. The stethoscope will confirm the performed operation or display the current mode and settings to the physician through voice response or visual interface information.
For example, when a physician wants to adjust the volume of the amplifier 3 of the stethoscope, it can be said that "stethoscope, turn the volume up", the voice command and control component recognizes the instruction and communicates with the amplifier 3, adjusting the volume to the level required by the physician. The voice control function can enable doctors to use the stethoscope more conveniently and quickly without manually operating equipment, and the working efficiency is improved.
Example seven
The difference between this embodiment and the above embodiment is that: the wireless communication system further comprises a data bus interface component, wherein the data bus interface component is in signal connection with the processing component and is used for connecting the 4G/5G module, the WiFi module, the GPRS module, the WLAN module and the LAN module.
The specific implementation process is as follows: the data bus interface assembly of the intelligent stethoscope for medical use has various connection options, such as a 4G/5G module, a WiFi module, a GPRS module, a WLAN module and a LAN module. The hospital or medical institution can select a proper connection mode according to actual conditions, such as connecting to a network of the hospital by using WiFi, or realizing wireless remote monitoring by using a 4G/5G module.
In the setup interface of the stethoscope or the application of the mobile terminal, the doctor can configure information required for connection, such as a network name, a password, a server address, etc. Once configured, the data bus interface component establishes a connection with the network based on the doctor's configuration information. For example, if a 4G/5G module is selected, the stethoscope will automatically connect to the available mobile network.
Once the connection is established, the data bus interface component is responsible for transmitting auscultation data, heartbeat sounds, breath sounds and other information collected by the stethoscope to a remote server or mobile terminal. In the remote monitoring mode, the data bus interface component can upload auscultation data to the cloud server regularly, so that a doctor can monitor auscultation data of a patient remotely through the mobile terminal. The data bus interface component can also receive commands from a cloud server or a mobile terminal, such as remote control of functions of a stethoscope, mode switching, parameter adjustment, etc. The data bus interface component can realize real-time data transmission and interaction, so that doctors can timely know auscultation of patients and make diagnosis and advice.
For example, a doctor views auscultation data of a patient through a mobile terminal application while remotely sending a command to a stethoscope, asking for switching to a specific auscultation mode. The data bus interface component is responsible for transmitting commands to the stethoscope, realizing mode switching on the stethoscope, then transmitting the switched data back to the mobile terminal, and a doctor can instantly know the state change of the stethoscope. The remote monitoring function can help doctors monitor and diagnose patients anytime and anywhere, and improves the convenience and efficiency of medical services.
