Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for controlling and / or regulating a training and / or rehabilitation unit as a function of parameters of the breathing gas composition.
  • WO 00/19620 A1 is a head phone system known in which one can forward signals to a training facility.
  • Signal forwarding means auditory and visual signals.
  • Vo 2max Maximum oxygen uptake
  • the parameter Vo 2max is used to define individual training intensities . In the determination, one is dependent on the test person / patient maximum load, with which considerable limitations in terms of interpretation and application are connected.
  • the Vo 2max value is dependent on the weakest link in a chain of physiological processes: ventilation, cardiovascular capacity and local O 2 exhaustion in the musculature. The subject must be able to burden himself to complete exhaustion. Certain clinical pictures (eg heart diseases) exclude a maximum load from the outset.
  • Alternative parameters for determining the performance are, on the one hand, threshold values in the submaximal Range determined from respiratory sizes and / or lactate concentrations in the blood. They have been widely used for a long time in performance diagnostics. On the other hand, kinetics of the heart rate and the oxygen uptake allow a more differentiated statement about the limiting factors of the Vo 2max .
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a method with which a person or an animal can, for example, complete special fitness or rehabilitation programs, the training and / or rehabilitation unit used depending on parameters of the breathing gas composition, in particular the Vo 2max values, the user can be controlled and / or regulated and without requiring a maximum load of the person or the animal is necessary.
  • the control and / or regulation of the training and / or rehabilitation unit thus effects, in the sense of the method, a load adjustment on the basis of determined parameters, preferably of maximum performance parameters, of the test person or of the animal. All of the process variants shown here can be used both in humans and in animals.
  • the gases oxygen and carbon dioxide are optionally also designated by O 2 or CO 2 .
  • the O 2 uptake Vo 2
  • the CO 2 release Vco 2
  • / or derived parameters respiratory anaerobic threshold AT
  • respiratory quotient RQ
  • O 2Puls oxygen pulse
  • the tidal volume (VT), the respiratory rate (fR) and the respiratory time volume (VE) and / or the respiratory equivalent derived therefrom for O 2 can be determined as parameters of the ventilation.
  • the maximum oxygen uptake (Vo 2max ) is determined as the maximum performance characteristic.
  • the physical performance is usually determined under gradual increasing load in the context of ergometry on the bicycle or treadmill.
  • the standard measure of aerobic performance is the highest possible oxygen uptake during maximum load (Vo 2max ). This is the amount of O 2 extracted from the inhaled gas per unit of time.
  • Vo 2 is given in l / min, for better comparability, a normalization to the body weight (ml / min / kg).
  • Maximum oxygen uptake is an objective measure of physical performance; it defines the upper limit of the cardiopulmonary system and is used to estimate the state of training and fitness.
  • the maximum oxygen uptake (Vo 2max ) at submaximal loading is determined by means of a regression function.
  • a c is the asymptotic amplitude and T c is a time constant.
  • the signal noise in this relationship between the ergometer power input and the breath-by-breath total oxygen exchange (Vo 2, t ) can be minimized, for example, by an Eßfeld method (3).
  • the method of random or pseudorandom binary sequence (PRBS) is used. That is, the performance of the ergometer changes in a sequence only between two low load levels, the change takes place randomly at predetermined intervals. The calculation of the noise thus allows lower power amplitudes for the test.
  • the resistance or braking arrangement of the training and / or rehabilitation unit is controlled and / or regulated such that the O 2 intake (Vo 2 ) of the person or animal to a predeterminable proportionate value of the maximum oxygen uptake (Vo 2max ) is set.
  • the resistance or braking arrangement of the training and / or rehabilitation unit will be controlled and / or regulated such that the O 2 intake (Vo 2 ) of the person during exercise at a value between 10% to 100%, preferably between 20% to 80%, more preferably between 30% to 60% of the maximum oxygen uptake (Vo 2max ) is kept constant.
  • the training can be adapted to the particular day shape of the person.
  • a training device could be operated with a corresponding power, so that the person trains, for example, constantly with an O 2 uptake (Vo 2 ) of 40% of its Vo 2max value.
  • the sensor unit can be installed, for example, in a breathing mask, which is worn by a person or an animal.
  • This arrangement has the particular advantage that an extremely low dead volume is present.
  • the sensor unit can be arranged in a headset (headset) or a similar means, all that matters is that the sensor unit is flowed around by the breathing air of the person or the animal.
  • a headset is thus understood to mean a device which has at least one means for receiving the sensor unit and a means for fastening the device in the head region of the person or animal.
  • the means for receiving the sensor unit must in any case be suitable to bring the sensor unit in the path of the breathing air of the person or the animal.
  • an ear clip can additionally be used so that comprehensive performance data can be recorded and further medical characteristics of the user, such as the heart rate, can be recorded.
  • the obtained measurement data can advantageously be recorded by means of a connected computer, optionally a personal digital assistant (PDA).
  • PDA personal digital assistant
  • the training and / or rehabilitation unit may be, for example, an ergometer, fitness machine, crosstrainer, rowing ergometer, rowing machine, treadmill, walker device, spin bike or a bicycle.
  • the resistance and / or braking arrangement of the training and / or rehabilitation unit may include, for example, a pneumatic, hydraulic, mechanical, electromagnetic brake, an eddy current or band brake.
  • a training and / or rehabilitation unit may thus comprise, for example, a frame, a means for absorbing power, such as pedals, a drive transmission system, a rotation element and a resistance and / or brake assembly.
  • magnetic or electric eddy current brakes have the advantage that they can be easily controlled and are less susceptible to wear.
  • an oxygen concentration determination and / or a determination of the concentration of carbon dioxide by means of one or more liquid electrolyte sensors / sensors can preferably be carried out in the sensor unit.
  • an oxygen concentration determination is carried out in the sensor unit as an alternative to the liquid electrolyte sensor with the aid of a heatable electrochemical solid electrolyte sensor and / or a carbon dioxide concentration determination with the aid of a further heatable electrochemical solid electrolyte sensor and dependent on the respiratory flow volume of the person control of the heating power of heating elements of the sensors to maintain constant sensor temperatures using a micro Controller in a sensor control unit.

  • Sensors of this type have the advantage that they can be made very small and light and inexpensive. For example, dimensions of 20 x 3.5 x 0.5 mm can be achieved for such sensors (1). Such miniaturized sensors are thus particularly suitable for installation in a breathing mask.
  • the determination of the oxygen concentration of the respiratory air by measuring the current at a constant voltage through the electrolyte of the oxygen sensor from the cathode to the anode current flowing, wherein a linear relationship between the resulting electric current and the oxygen concentration.
  • the carbon dioxide concentration is determined via a logarithmic relationship between the voltage between the electrodes of the carbon dioxide sensor and the carbon dioxide concentration.
  • the respiratory flow volume is determined from the heating force of the heating elements of the sensors, which is controlled by the microcontroller and is necessary to maintain a constant sensor temperature.
  • the determination of the total flow rate of the respiratory air can be done with the sensor element taking advantage of the thin-film anemometry. Furthermore, can the flow direction of the breathing gas can be determined either by using the measured oxygen and / or carbon dioxide concentration gradients or the temperature profile on the sensor.
  • the inventive method has the advantage that at the same time the volume flow, the flow direction and thus the oxygen and carbon dioxide composition of the inspiratory air and the expiration air with a breath-by-breath resolution can be monitored. The oxygen and carbon dioxide concentrations can therefore be clearly assigned to the inspiratory air and the expiration air.
