Definitions
- the present invention relates to a non-invasive blood pressure measuring device, in particular a measuring device for the continuous determination of the intra-arterial blood pressure on at least one finger of a hand.
- a patient's (in particular arterial) blood pressure is one of the most important measurement variables in medical technology, and the known associated, in particular also non-invasive, measurement technology is extremely diverse. This applies above all to measurement technology for the continuous monitoring of blood pressure over a longer period of time, for example in intensive care medicine but also in emergency medicine and during surgery.
- the blood pressure measuring device is often attached to the patient's limbs, for example an applanation tonometric sensor in the radial artery on the forearm or a photoplethysmographic according to the sogn.
- "Vascular Unloading Technique" finger sensor operated according to Penäz.
- Such pressure measuring devices are known, for example, from US 4,406,289, US 4,524,777, US 4,726,382, WO 2010/050798 A1, WO 2000/059369 A1, WO 2011/045138 A1, WO 2011/051819 A1, WO 2011/051822 A1, WO 2012/032413 A1 and WO 2017/143366 Al known.
- near-infrared light is radiated into a finger, and the pulsatile (pulsed) blood flow (actually the changing blood volume) in the finger is determined on the basis of the non-absorbed portion captured by means of a photodetector.
- a photodetector also called photoplethysmography (PPG)
- the (near infrared) light is usually generated with the help of one or more light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that work with one or more wavelengths, and with the help of one or more light-sensitive receiver diodes (photodiodes) detected.
- LEDs light-emitting diodes
- photodiodes light-sensitive receiver diodes
- a control system now holds the plethysmographically registered flow (or the detected blood volume) and thus the resulting photoplethysmographic signal (Volume signal v (t)) constant by applying a back pressure in a cuff (CufFpressure) pc (t) on the finger.
- This back pressure pc (t) is usually regulated by a fast valve or valve system in conjunction with a pump.
- the relevant control of the valve or the valve system is carried out by a control unit, which is preferably implemented with a microcomputer.
- the main input signals are the PPG signal v (t) and the cuff pressure pc (t).
- the pressure pc (t) required to keep the PPG signal v (t) constant now corresponds to the intra-arterial blood pressure pa (t).
- cuff pressure pc (t) can be changed at least as quickly as the intra-arterial blood pressure pa (t) changes so that the real-time condition is fulfilled.
- the upper limit frequency of pa (t) and thus the highest pressure change rate is above at least 20Hz, which is quite a challenge for a pressure control system. It follows from this that the pressure control by means of a valve or valve system is advantageously in the immediate vicinity of the cuff. If the air lines are too long, this limit frequency condition may be lost due to the low-pass effect of the lines.
- a mechanical valve which regulates the back pressure in the finger cuff with the desired accuracy when it is supplied with a linearly operating pump.
- the valve is housed in a housing on the distal forearm and thus supplies the finger cuff with the pressure pc (t) via a short tube.
- US Pat. No. 4,524,777 describes a pressure generation system for the vascular unloading technique, wherein a constant cuff pressure Pc is also generated with a linear pump, which is superimposed with pressure fluctuations Apc (t) from a "shaker” or a “driving actuator” connected in parallel.
- US Pat. No. 4,726,382 discloses a finger cuff for the vascular unloading technique which has hose connections for supplying the cuff pressure pc (t). The length of the air tubes extends to the pressure generating system, which in turn is attached to the distal forearm.
- WO 2000/059369 A1 also describes a pressure generation system for the vascular unloading technique.
- the valve system here consists of a separate inlet and a separate outlet valve. While a relatively linear proportional pump must be used in the patents US 4,406,289 and US 4,524,777, this system permits the use of simple, inexpensive pumps, since disturbing harmonics can be eliminated by the arrangement of the valves. Furthermore, the energy consumption of the simple pump can be significantly reduced by the valve principle.
- a system for the vascular unloading technique is known from WO 2004/086963 A1, in which the blood pressure can be continuously determined in one finger, while the measurement quality is checked in the adjacent finger ("watch dog" function). After a while, the system automatically changes the "measuring finger” to the "monitoring finger”.
- WO 2005/037097 A1 describes a control system for the vascular unloading technique with several control loops intertwined.
- WO 2010/050798 A1 discloses a pressure generation system ("front end") attached to the distal forearm with only one valve, to which a finger cuff for the vascular unloading technique can be attached.
- WO 2011/051819 A1 discloses an implementation of the vascular unloading technique improved by means of digital electronics for increasing the stability and for further miniaturization.
- WO 2011/051822 A1 describes a method for the vascular unloading technique, in which the measured signals v (t) and pc (t) are processed to increase long-term stability and to determine other hemodynamic parameters.
- a Methods for eliminating effects resulting from vasomotor changes in the finger arteries, as well as a method for determining cardiac output (Cardiac Ouput CO) are disclosed.
- WO 2012/032413 A1 describes novel finger sensors which have a disposable part for single use.
- the cuff that comes into contact with the finger is accommodated in the disposable part for hygienic reasons, whereas the associated pressure generation and pressure control system is housed in a reusable part. Accordingly, a separable pneumatic connection between the disposable part and the reusable part must be provided.
- the pressure generation and pressure control system is usually attached to the distal forearm, proximal to the wrist, which has significant disadvantages: this location is often used for intravenous access and the intra-arterial access at the distal end of the radial artery should also be used for emergencies be free. Such accesses can be blocked by the pressure generation and pressure control system and its attachment. The system can also slip or tip during operation. This can adversely affect the seating of the sensors. The position of the sensors would also improve if the finger to be measured or the corresponding hand is in a certain rest position.
- the publication WO 2017/143366 A1 proposes a measuring system for the continuous determination of the intra-arterial blood pressure on at least one finger of a hand, with at least one finger sensor, with a plethysmographic system, with at least one light source, preferably LED, with or several wavelengths and at least one light sensor and at least one inflatable cuff, as well as with a pressure generation system with at least one valve regulated in real time with the aid of the plethysmographic system for generating a pressure in the cuff which essentially corresponds to the intra-arterial blood pressure in the finger, wherein the measuring system has a housing with a surface that serves as a support surface for the at least one finger and the adjacent areas of the palm of the hand.
- the light-emitting and photodiodes for emitting and detecting the near-infrared measuring radiation are arranged directly on the finger.
- the light-emitting and photodiodes are arranged directly on the finger.
- the exposed light-emitting elements have to be cleaned and disinfected before being reused.
- the need for a design that is easy to clean limits the degrees of freedom in the design. Otherwise, the necessity of accommodating the light-emitting and photodiodes in the immediate vicinity of the finger represents a limitation of the geometrical configuration of the device.
- this object is achieved with a device according to claim 1.
- the present invention thus provides in particular a measuring device for the continuous determination of the intra-arterial blood pressure on at least one finger a hand ready, which has a base part and a cuff part that can be connected to the base part without tools and can be separated from the base part, preferably designed as a disposable item, furthermore a radiation source for emitting light into the finger through an optical emission surface, a photodetector for detecting one through an optical one Collected surface area of the light that is not absorbed in the finger, a part arranged in the cuff part that can be filled with a fluid (usually a gas, for example air, although reactions with a liquid as a fluid are also advantageously possible) for holding the finger , and an at least partially arranged in the base part pressure control system for regulating a fluid pressure in the cuff depending on the detected non-absorbed portion of the light.
- a fluid usually a gas, for example air, although reactions with a liquid as a fluid are also advantageously possible
- the radiation source and / or the photodetector is arranged in the base part, a respective non-fibrous light guide connection (so-called “light pipe”) between the radiation source and / or photodetector arranged in the base part and the optical emission surface or the optical collector surface. is provided, which is at least partially arranged in the cuff part, and the respective light guide connection has an optical contact point that can be separated from the base part together with the cuff for coupling light from the base part into the cuff part or coupling out light from the cuff part into the base part.
- a respective non-fibrous light guide connection so-called “light pipe”
- light is understood to mean electromagnetic radiation in the infrared, visible and ultraviolet range in accordance with the usual definition.
- this is usually near-infrared light (approx. 700 to 1100 nm wavelength).
- light of different wavelengths can be used, in particular also for the integration of additional functions such as the measurement of oxygen saturation, detection of fluorescent dyes, etc.
- the Light Pipes can be made from different glass materials such as quartz glass or from suitable transparent plastics such as PMMA and polycarbonate, in particular cast and, if necessary, ground, with the expert choosing the material according to the conditions in the individual case (optical quality, power of the radiation source or sensitivity of the photodetector, material costs, biocompatibility, aging resistance (especially resistance to yellowing, wear resistance etc.).
- the specialist can exhaust the range of suitable processing methods depending on the material, for example, ultra-precision machining, glass grinding, etc.
- the person skilled in the art can optimize the beam path towards a directional, loss-optimized light transmission.
- the light pipe geometry can advantageously be individually adapted for different sizes of the cuff part.
- the person skilled in the art gains degrees of freedom in the construction, which enables, for example, the use of sleeve parts of different dimensions for children's hands and adult hands with the same base part.
- Beam angle and beam profiles can be adjusted according to the anatomy. The exact arrangement of the light source and photodetector is no longer determined by the anatomy. Different sizes of the cuff part can thus be made, whereby the distance between the light guides in the base part or the distance between the light source and the photodetector in the base part can remain constant.
- the production costs for the cuff part which is preferably designed as a disposable article, can be kept low. Accordingly, the cost of the application per patient when using disposable cuff parts can be reduced.
- Avoiding electrical components near or directly on the skin can improve biocompatibility.
- the heat input to tissue can be significantly reduced.
- the radiation source and the photodetector are preferably arranged in the base part, and a respective non-fibrous light guide connection is provided between the radiation source arranged in the base part and the optical emission surface as well as between the photodetector and the optical emission surface, which is arranged at least partially in the sleeve part .
- the device can thus advantageously be implemented such that there is no electrical line connection between the base part and the sleeve part.
- the cuff part can have an electronic component for wireless identification of the cuff part, for example an RFID tag, so that an associated query element in the base part can be used to ensure that only suitable cuff parts are used in operation.
- a component for identifying the cuff part can advantageously serve to prevent the reuse of a cuff part designed as a disposable component.
- the elimination of electrical contacts between the base part and the cuff part can increase both patient safety and functional safety.
- the cuff part can advantageously also have an electronic component for identifying the cuff part, and there can be an interface for querying the electronic component as the only electrical line connection between the base part and the cuff part.
- the radiation source and the photodetector can be arranged on a common circuit board.
- a driver switch for the radiation source and / or an amplifier circuit for the photodetector can also be arranged particularly advantageously on the circuit board. Because of the typically low currents in the mA range, short line lengths, in particular between the photodiode (photodetector) and the amplifier circuit, are advantageous, which, in addition to inexpensive manufacture and compact design, also speaks in favor of equipping a common circuit board with the appropriate electronic components.
- At least one lens can advantageously be provided between the radiation source and the associated light guide connection and / or between the photodetector and the associated light guide connection, or a lens geometry can be integrated into the light guide at the transition.
- the cuff part in the base part can advantageously also be provided with at least one lens, or a lens geometry can be integrated into the light guide at the transition.
- the optical contact point for coupling light from the base part into the cuff part and / or the optical contact point for coupling light out of the cuff part into the base part is provided with at least one cover glass.
- the optical emission surface and / or the optical collector surface is equipped with a Fresnel I structure for the directional coupling and decoupling of the measurement radiation.
- the arrangement according to the invention with light guides offers the possibility of taking further technical measures to improve or adapt the optical transmission path, in particular the coating of reflection surfaces of the light guides, for example by vapor deposition or sputtering on of metals such as, in particular, silver or gold. Can also be advantageous
- Diffraction gratings are provided in the light guides in order to influence the light path
- the optical transmission of the interfaces in particular contact areas (such as emission area, collector area, contact point), are improved by anti-reflective coatings, for example made of silicon dioxide,
- Bandpass filters are introduced into the beam path by coating the coupling surface or collector surface,
- Light guides against crosstalk can be coated with a material that is opaque in the critical wavelength range.
- infrared blockers for example, can be inserted between the two elements. Radiation blockers in the housing can also prevent radiation from the surroundings from being transmitted to the detector. This is an advantage of the installation position of the photodetector inside the base part.
- each variant of the invention described or indicated in the context of the present application can be particularly advantageous, depending on the economic, technical and possibly medical conditions in the individual case. Unless stated otherwise, or as far as technically feasible, individual features of the described embodiments can be exchanged or combined with one another and with features known per se from the prior art.

- the blood pressure measuring device 1 is designed as a photoplethysmographic measuring system that works according to the so-called "vascular unloading technique".
- Metrological components ie in particular electronic components 23a, 23b, 24a, 24b and mechanical components of the pressure generation and pressure control system 20 can in principle be implemented in a manner similar to that in the prior art mentioned at the beginning.
- Essential components of the described exemplary embodiment are outlined in FIG. 2 and in particular FIGS. 3 and 4b, which show the blood pressure measuring device 1 shown in side view in FIGS. 1 and 4a in a front view (from the left in FIGS. 1 and 4a) or a sectional view (FIG. 4b ) demonstrate.
- Elements arranged within the housing 2 of the base part or within the sleeve part are indicated by dashed lines in FIG. 3.
- the cuff part 8 is designed to hold two fingers, which makes it possible to measure alternately on both fingers.
- the cuff part 8, together with the palm rest 17, is designed as a disposable article which is detachably attached to the reusable base part 18 by a plug connection.
- Fig. 5 shows the
- the two inflatable finger cuffs 19a, 19b are connected to the pressure generation and pressure control system 20 via a distributor 21 and a connection 22 at the interface between the cuff part 8 and the base part 18.
- the connection 22 is preferably equipped with a valve (not shown) which closes the connection on the base part side flush with the housing 2 of the base part 18 when the base part 18 and sleeve part 8 are not connected to one another.
- the finger cuffs 19a, 19b can also be connected separately to an (optionally also respective) pressure generation and pressure control system 20 and can thus be controlled separately.
- a light source 23a, 23b for near-infrared light for example in the form of a light-emitting diode
- a photodetector 24a, 24b are provided, which are arranged on a common circuit board 4, which also contains the driver switches (not shown) for the light sources 23a, 23b and carries the amplifier circuits (not shown) for the photodetectors 24a, 24b.
- the light sources 23a, 23b and the photodetectors 24a, 24b with an associated optical emission surface 25a, 25b or optical collector surface 26a, 26b for coupling emitted light into the finger tissue are via a respective so-called light pipe 27, that is to say a light guide which is not designed as a fiber bundle or coupling out non-absorbed light from the finger tissue.
- the optical emission and collector surfaces 25a, 25b, 26a, 26b are equipped with a Fresnell structure for the directional coupling and decoupling of the measurement radiation.
- the light emitted by the respective light source 23a, 23b is coupled into the respective light pipe 27 via the respective lens 3a, 3b.
- a cover glass 29 e.g. mineral glass or saphii glass which is as scratch-resistant as possible and is flush with the housing 2 of the base part 18 is attached to the contact points.
- the pressure generation and pressure control system 20 regulates the cuff pressure in accordance with the signal received by one of the photodetectors 24a, 24b such that the portion of the near-infrared light that is not absorbed in the corresponding finger remains as constant as possible, i.e. a back pressure which varies according to the pulsatile part of the arterial blood pressure is generated and transmitted to the respective finger via the flexible cuff membranes 9a, 9b, so that the one present in the respective finger area (and from the respective pair of light source detectors 23a, 24a and 23b , 24b plethysmographically detected) blood volume remains approximately constant.
- the counterpressure in the cuffs 19a, 19b which is regulated accordingly by the pressure generation and pressure control system 20, is detected as a blood pressure measurement signal by a sensor in the pressure generation and pressure control system 20 and can be output via a suitable electronic interface through the cable 12 to a patient monitor.
- the device 1 is also supplied with power via the cable 12.
