Clinically, chest impedance signals and electrocardiographic signals are commonly used for noninvasive hemodynamic detection and cardiac functional analysis and diagnosis.
Conventional methods require the use of at least 7 electrodes to simultaneously detect the thoracic impedance signal and the electrocardiographic signal, with 4 electrodes dedicated to acquiring the thoracic impedance signal and 3 electrodes dedicated to acquiring the electrocardiographic signal, which results in a complex wiring between the subject and the detection device, a large number of electrode pads, and poor comfort, ease of measurement, and portability of the device for the subject.

Referring to fig. 1 to 6, the present invention provides a hemodynamic detection system based on fewer electrodes and signal correlation, as shown in fig. 1, the system includes a chest impedance excitation module, a chest impedance signal detection module, an electrocardiograph signal detection module, a display module, a storage module, a wired device, a wireless device, and a microcontroller module connected to both electrodes.
Referring to fig. 2, the front end of the detection system is composed of a chest impedance excitation module, a chest impedance signal detection module, an electrocardiosignal detection module, a microcontroller module and four electrodes (E1, E2, E3, E4).
The four electrodes are placed on the skin surface of a human body by using silver/silver chloride electrode plates, E1 belongs to an excitation electrode, E2 and E3 belong to measurement electrodes, E4 is a grounding electrode, and the four electrodes are used as the excitation electrode and the human body to form a current loop and also used as the measurement electrode to provide voltage reference points for chest impedance signal and electrocardiosignal detection.
The microcontroller module includes a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and also has the necessary computing and communication functions.
The DAC is used for providing sine wave voltage excitation signals, and the output frequency is 20 kHz-100 kHz, and the peak-to-peak value is 1V-3V.
The ADC is used for acquiring a mixed signal (Z) containing a thoracic cavity base impedance signal and a respiratory signal 0 &RESP), a multi-channel chest impedance-related signal including a chest impedance-varying signal (Δz), a chest impedance-varying differential signal (dZ/dt), and a single-lead electrocardiographic signal (ECG), a total of 4-channel signals.
The band-pass filter circuit in the chest impedance excitation module is used for removing direct current bias in the DAC output signal and smoothing the waveform, the passband gain is 2, and the output of the band-pass filter circuit is used as the input of the voltage-controlled current source.
The voltage-controlled current source adopts a Howlan current source, and under the input of the sine wave voltage signal frequency of 20 kHz-100 kHz and peak-to-peak value of 2V-6V, sine wave current signals with the frequency of 20 kHz-100 kHz and peak-to-peak value of 2 mA-6 mA are output between the E1 electrode and the E4 electrode.
The sine wave current signal is modulated into a voltage signal by the chest impedance change signal of the human body through the human body.
The multichannel chest impedance-related signal detection and the electrocardiosignal detection use three electrodes E2, E3 and E4.
In the chest impedance signal detection module and the electrocardiosignal detection module, firstly, the voltage of the E2 electrode and the E3 electrode is obtained by utilizing the characteristic of high input impedance of a voltage follower, then the differential voltage of the E2 electrode and the E3 electrode is amplified by utilizing the characteristics of high input impedance, high common mode rejection ratio and low noise of an instrument amplifier, the amplification factor is 10-20, and the output signal of the instrument amplifier is an amplified chest impedance amplitude modulation signal.
The chest impedance amplitude modulation signal not only comprises chest impedance information but also comprises an electrocardiosignal, and the chest impedance amplitude modulation signal is respectively input into a high-pass filter circuit in the chest impedance signal detection module and a low-pass filter circuit in the electrocardiosignal detection module through two paths.
Because the frequency range of the electrocardiosignal is mainly concentrated at 0.5-45 Hz, and the chest impedance information is contained in an amplitude-modulated signal with the frequency not less than 20kHz, a high-pass filter circuit with the cut-off frequency of 1kHz is used in the chest impedance signal detection module to remove the electrocardiosignal contained in the chest impedance amplitude-modulated signal; a low-pass filter circuit with cut-off frequency of 100Hz is used in the electrocardiosignal detection module to remove high-frequency amplitude modulation signals, and high-frequency noise can be restrained at the same time, so that the electrocardiosignal amplified by the instrument amplifier is obtained.
The demodulation circuit in the chest impedance signal detection module adopts an envelope half-wave detection circuit and is used for demodulating an original chest impedance signal from the chest impedance amplitude modulation signal, wherein the signal comprises a chest fundamental impedance signal, a respiratory signal and a chest impedance change signal.
The original chest impedance signal is divided into two paths to be processed, and a mixed signal containing a chest base impedance signal and a respiratory signal and a chest impedance change signal are obtained respectively. The method comprises the following steps:
because the thoracic cavity basic impedance signal is approximately the direct current component in the original thoracic impedance signal, the respiration signal is mainly the low-frequency component with the frequency of 0.05-2 Hz in the original thoracic impedance signal, and therefore the mixed signal containing the thoracic cavity basic impedance signal and the respiration signal is obtained by the low-pass filter circuit with the cut-off frequency of 2 Hz.
Because the frequency range of the chest impedance change signal is about 1-20 Hz, the direct current component in the original chest impedance signal is removed by the high-pass filter circuit with the cut-off frequency of 1Hz, and the respiratory disturbance with lower frequency can be effectively restrained.
The chest impedance signal amplifying and filtering module consists of an amplifying circuit, a low-pass filtering circuit and a 50Hz trap circuit.
Because the demodulated chest impedance change signal is weak and is inconvenient to collect by using the ADC directly, the chest impedance change signal is further amplified by using an amplifying circuit, and the amplification factor of the amplifying circuit is 100-200.
In the signal conditioning process, the chest impedance change signal is easily interfered by high-frequency noise and 50Hz power frequency, so that a low-pass filter circuit and a 50Hz trap circuit are used for denoising the signal to improve the signal-to-noise ratio.
The chest impedance signal amplifying and filtering module outputs a chest impedance change signal containing negative voltage, and the ADC in the microprocessor module can only collect the positive voltage signal, so that the ADC can not be directly used for collection, and the signal needs to be lifted to be above the positive voltage through the voltage lifting circuit so as to meet the input range of the ADC.
The voltage boosting circuit is realized by an adder circuit, and an output signal is positioned in a positive voltage range by adding a direct current signal to a primary signal.
The chest impedance change differential signal is obtained by the differential circuit.
Since the differentiating circuit amplifies high frequency noise, a low pass filter circuit with a cut-off frequency of 20Hz is used at the output to suppress the high frequency noise, and finally, the impedance varying differentiating signal is inputted to the ADC through the voltage boosting circuit.
The electrocardiosignals amplified by the instrument amplifier need to be further amplified and denoised to improve the signal to noise ratio, and are processed by using an electrocardiosignal amplifying and filtering module.
The electrocardiosignal amplifying and filtering module consists of a 50Hz trap circuit, a high-pass filtering circuit and an amplifying circuit.
The 50Hz trap circuit is used for suppressing power frequency noise, and the high-pass filter circuit is used for removing direct current components in the electrocardiosignals amplified by the instrument amplifier so as to ensure that the signals amplified by the amplifying circuit are not saturated and distorted, and meanwhile, the baseline drift is effectively suppressed.
The amplifying circuit in the electrocardiosignal amplifying and filtering module is used for further amplifying the electrocardiosignal so as to improve the quality of the signal acquired by the ADC, otherwise, the quality of the acquired signal is poor due to the limitation of the accuracy of the ADC, and the amplification factor of the amplifying circuit is 50-100.
And the electrocardiosignals output by the electrocardiosignal amplifying and filtering module are lifted to a positive voltage range by a voltage lifting circuit and input to the ADC.
The high-pass filter circuit and the low-pass filter circuit in the chest impedance signal detection module and the electrocardiosignal detection module both adopt second-order Butterworth filters; the 50Hz trap circuits in the chest impedance signal amplifying and filtering module and the electrocardiosignal amplifying and filtering module are double T-shaped trap circuits; the band-pass filter circuit in the chest impedance excitation module uses a second-order voltage-controlled voltage source band-pass filter.
The digital filter used for separating the chest base impedance signal and the respiratory signal from the mixed signal containing the chest base impedance signal and the respiratory signal is an IIR low-pass filter, also called a DC tracking filter, and the difference equation is y (n) =y (n-1) + [ x (n) -y (n-1)]/2 k 。
Tests under the sampling frequency of 200Hz prove that when k takes the recommended value of 9, the chest cavity basic impedance signal can be obtained from the mixed signal; when k takes the recommended value 7, a respiration signal can be obtained from the mixed signal.
