Description

Apnea / low breathing alarm and alarm system {ALARM APPARATUS AND SYSTEM FOR APNEA OR HYPOPNEA}

The present invention relates to an apnea / low breathing alarm device and an alarm system, and more particularly to respiratory arrest (or apnea) that occurs due to abnormalities of heart function and sudden abnormalities of newborns and infants / infants who cannot cover the body, for example. In case of an emergency, such as apnea symptoms that block the respiratory tract due to abnormal posture or blockage of the respiratory tract (nose intake), or low breathing, which is a preliminary stage of apnea, alerts nearby (e.g., manager or guardian). An apnea / low breathing alarm device and an alarm system are provided.

In general, specific respiratory disorders occurring in newborns include respiratory bowel syndrome due to immaturity of the respiratory system, Wilson-Mikiti syndrome due to immaturity of the lungs, and immaturity of the respiratory center. There are apnea seizures, fecal metastasis by aspiration at birth, and other diaphragmatic hernias or pulmonary hypoplasia, which are congenital abnormalities of the respiratory system.

The most common of these diseases is neonatal hyperventilation, in which fetal effluents are rapidly absorbed after birth. The prognosis is good, and respiratory disorders with multiple respirations continue for several days after birth. It is also known as eczematosis, which can be thought of as one of the symptoms of adaptive dysfunction, which has slowed the adaptation to extravagant life with birth.

The most important of these is respiratory distress syndrome in premature infants. The breathing. Depression breathing. Moans, etc. It develops soon after birth and worsens severely within hours.

In the past, mortality was high, but recently, due to advances in various artificial ventilation methods, most of them survive without sequelae. Apnea can be very damaging to newborns, so to prevent it, you need a device that can monitor apnea.

The apnea is judged not to breathe for more than 10 seconds, and if it is determined that the apnea does not occur rapidly, the respiratory movement is caused by the contraction and expansion of the lungs, resulting in a decrease in the volume of the chest, and the movement of the respiratory muscles such as the abdominal movement and the rib muscles of the back. You will be treated by getting up.

On the other hand, many adults over thirties have severe snoring, and this snoring is considered to be caused by extreme fatigue, obesity, stress, rhinitis and sore throat. The problem is that snoring causes apnea, which stops breathing for a few seconds to several tens of seconds, leading to severe fatigue, which dramatically reduces the quality of life, which can reduce learning and work efficiency, and cause industrial accidents and traffic accidents. In severe cases, lack of oxygen in the body may cause cardiovascular and brain insufficiency.

In particular, in the case of heart disease such as arrhythmia, myocardial infarction, heart failure, and brain disease with a history of cerebral infarction and stroke, this may cause sudden death and sudden death due to sleep apnea.

People with sleep apnea may have to be cautious in order to prevent damage caused by sleep apnea or hypopnea, but unfortunately, sleep apnea cannot be noticed. Therefore, sleep apnea should be told by the family next to it, but considering that sleep apnea is a state in which sleep apnea is stopped more than 20 times during 7 hours of sleep, it is not simple for people around to sleep for a long time.

Recently, devices for measuring and monitoring such apneas have emerged. There is a device that measures the change in ventilation volume according to the change of breathing during sleep by inputting a breathing mask suitable for the size of the mouth and nose of the subject and inputting it to a computer.

Such a mask should not be unified to all people, but should be specially made according to the shape of the subject's mouth and nose, and it is expensive to interpret the changes of long-term measured respiratory ventilation into electrical signals and input them into a computer. Inverters and software are required and the help of a specialist or clinical engineer is required.

While conventional sleep apnea measurement devices are complex and expensive to use, most of all, the wearing of special masks on the mouth and nose during sleep and the connection line for transmitting breathing ventilation are connected to the computer for a long time. There is a problem that affects sleep.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, the object of the present invention is to stop breathing (or apnea) caused by abnormal heart function and sudden abnormalities of newborns and infants / infants can not control the body, for example, In case of emergencies such as apnea symptoms that block the respiratory tract due to abnormal posture or blockage of the respiratory tract (nasal inlet), or low breathing, which is a preliminary stage of apnea, prompt alerts to neighbors (for example, managers or guardians).

Alternatively, in case of an emergency such as low breathing, it is possible to promptly alert the neighbors of the subject to be measured effectively.

Hereinafter, the operation of the apnea / low breathing alarm device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

First, the transmission device consisting of the air pad 100, the air tube 200 and the apnea / low breathing measurement module 300 is mounted on the measurement target for apnea or low breath measurement, and the alarm generating module 400 is a measurement target Bring it to someone near you.

At this time, the breath (vibration) of the measurement target detected by the air pad 100 is applied to the sensor unit 320 of the apnea / low breath measurement module 300 via the air tube 200 as a medium.

Then, the sensor unit 320 converts the applied breath detection signal into an electrical signal corresponding thereto, and outputs the amplification unit 330. The analog breath detection signal output from the sensor unit 320 is very weak. Therefore, the amplification is performed to a predetermined level in advance in order to provide ease of signal processing of the rear stage, that is, the band filter unit 340.

Thereafter, the breath detection signal amplified by the amplifying unit 330 is applied to the control unit 360 to be transmitted for detecting body movement (movement of the subject), and is also applied to the band filter unit 340.

Next, the band filter unit 340 filters the detection signal of a specific band and applies the filtered signal to the controller 360 using an apnea filter for measuring apnea and a low apnea filter for measuring apnea. The apnea filter or the low breath filter of the band filter unit 340 filters the respiration detection signal input to the band set by the experiment in advance.

Thereafter, the controller 360 analyzes the output signal of the band pass filter 340 to determine whether apnea or low breathing is performed in real time. That is, the determination of the apnea or low breath is determined to be apnea or low breath when the output is generated through the apnea or low breath filter of the band pass filter 340. In other words, when not apnea or low breathing, the output of the apnea or low breathing filter does not occur; otherwise, when apnea or low breathing occurs, the output of the apnea or low breathing filter is generated, The controller 360 can easily determine whether apnea or low breathing.

When the controller 360 determines to be apnea or low breathing, the controller 360 applies a specific alarm control signal corresponding to the apnea or low breathing to the RF receiver 420. The RF receiver 420 periodically transmits an apnea or low breathing alarm control signal applied to the RF wirelessly for a predetermined time.

On the other hand, when the person around the measurement target having the alarm generating module 400 is in the RF reception area of the alarm control signal, the RF receiver 420 transmits from the RF transmitter 350 of the apnea / low breath measurement module 300. Receives a specific alarm control signal received by the RF radio and applies to the alarm generator 430.

Then, the alarm generator 430 alarms visually (eg, an alarm light by a light emitting diode) or acoustically (eg, an alarm sound by a speaker) so that a nearby person can recognize it according to a specific alarm control signal applied. Will occur.
