And finally, ending the test of the expiration sample to be tested, and replacing the expiration sample to perform the next expiration test.
S106, determining an expiration curve of the expiration sample to be tested based on the first variation curve, the second variation curve and the third variation curve.
Specifically, during the test process of one breath sample, the breath curve of the breath sample to be tested is obtained through the first variation curve of the detected resistance of the gas detection array in the baseline stabilizing period, the second variation curve in the response test period and the third variation curve in the recovery baseline period, so as to be used for subsequent analysis.
S107, determining the health states of individuals corresponding to different to-be-detected breath samples based on the breath curves of the different to-be-detected breath samples.
Specifically, through carrying out statistical analysis on the expiration curves of different expiration samples to be detected, the health states corresponding to the different expiration samples to be detected can be obtained and used as early screening assistance and later monitoring assistance of a disease dispute.
The type or concentration of the gas exhaled by the human body in a healthy or unhealthy state may be changed, and the exhalation curves obtained through the above steps may be different. Even for a population that is also unhealthy, the type or concentration of exhaled air may change from one disease type to another, and from one stage to another stage of the same disease type. Thus, by taking the aforementioned exhalation profile of the breath sample, a determination of the health status of the individual can be achieved.

In some embodiments, determining the health status of the individual corresponding to the different breath samples to be tested in S107 based on the breath curves of the different breath samples to be tested specifically includes:
performing discriminant analysis on the expiration curves of different expiration samples to be detected by using Fisher linear discriminant functions to obtain classification results;
and determining the health state of the individual corresponding to the breath sample to be detected based on the classification result.
Specifically, through discriminant analysis, various characteristic values of variables in the data can be distinguished and determined to determine the type attribute. In the present invention, the data processing tool may employ a Fisher linear arbiter. The Fisher linear discrimination method can better distinguish different individuals, does not make any requirement on overall data distribution, and has better effect when processing a large number of unknown characteristics or categories.
And (3) carrying out linear discriminant analysis on expiration curves of different expiration samples to be detected to obtain a classification result, and determining the health state of an individual corresponding to the expiration sample to be detected based on the classification result.
Alternatively, in the case where the different breath samples to be tested are breath samples of different individuals within the same time period, the classification result is used to distinguish the health of the different individuals. For example, different breath samples to be tested comprise breath samples of healthy people and diseased people, and the Fisher linear discriminator can effectively distinguish the two types of people. For another example, different breath samples to be tested comprise breath samples of different types of diseased people, and the Fisher linear discriminator can effectively distinguish the two types of people on the assumption of uremic patients and lung cancer patients.
Optionally, in the case that the different breath samples to be tested are breath samples of the same individual in different time periods, the classification result is used to characterize the change of the health degree of the same individual in different time periods. For example, different breath samples to be tested are breath samples of the same individual in a diseased condition and a health recovery condition, and the Fisher linear discriminator can effectively distinguish the breath samples in different states. For another example, the different breath samples to be tested are breath samples of the same individual at different stages of the illness, and the Fisher linear discriminator can effectively distinguish the breath samples at different stages on the assumption that the breath samples are early, middle and late of the lung cancer.
Therefore, the expiration detection method provided by the invention is not limited to the diagnosis assistance of a certain disease or a certain disease.
In some embodiments, the gas test flow rate and test time period of the gas mass flow meter, and the state switching of the three-way solenoid valve are controlled by the host computer. Specifically, the gas test speed and the test time period of the gas mass flowmeter can be set through the upper computer, and the upper computer can monitor the gas test speed displayed by the gas mass flowmeter. The state switching of the three-way electromagnetic valve can also be accurately controlled by the upper computer at regular time.

Specifically, in the baseline stage, a background gas passage is opened, a gas passage to be detected is closed, background gas is gradually discharged into the gas chamber, and the resistance change of the gas detection array gradually tends to be stable along with uniform discharge of the background gas. Therefore, the gas test flow rate and the test time period cannot be set at will, the interval length setting of the baseline stabilization time period should be based on that the resistance of the gas detection array can reach the stable state, and meanwhile, the setting of the gas test flow rate also needs to be compatible with the observability of the resistance change curve and the high-efficiency requirement of the overall test, if the setting flow rate is too fast, the resistance change curve is difficult to monitor, and if the setting flow rate is too slow, the overall expiration detection time is too long.
In some embodiments, the detecting a second change curve of the resistance of the gas detection array in S104 specifically includes:
detecting a second change curve of the resistance of the gas detection array under the action of the first mixed gas; the ratio of the background gas and the expiratory sample to be detected in the first mixed gas is reduced along with the change of time until the ratio becomes 0.
Specifically, in the response stage, the background gas channel is closed, the gas channel of the gas to be detected is opened, the gas to be detected in the gas chamber is gradually discharged, the background gas is gradually discharged, the resistor of the gas detection array is interacted with the gas to be detected after contacting, the electrical characteristics are changed, and when only the gas to be detected which is discharged and discharged at a uniform speed is arranged in the gas chamber, the resistor is stabilized again.

Likewise, the interval length setting of the response test period should be based on the fact that the resistance of the gas detection array can reach a steady state.
In some embodiments, detecting a third change in resistance of the gas detection array in S105 specifically includes:
detecting a third change curve of the resistance of the gas detection array under the action of the second mixed gas; the ratio of the background gas and the expiratory sample to be detected in the second mixed gas is increased along with the change of time until the ratio becomes 1.

And detecting a second change curve of the resistance of the gas detection array under the action of a second mixed gas, wherein the proportion of the background gas in the second mixed gas and the expiratory sample to be detected is increased along with the change of time until the proportion is increased to 1, namely the air chamber is filled with the background gas.
Likewise, the interval length setting for the recovery baseline period should be based on the resistance of the gas detection array reaching steady state.
