Abstract

A method and apparatus for minimizing confounding effects in a noninvasive in-vivo spectral measurement caused by fluctuations in tissue state monitors a selected tissue state parameter spectroscopically and maintains the selected parameter within a target range, at which spectral effects attributable to the changes in the selected parameter are minimized. The invention includes means for both active and passive control. A preferred embodiment of the invention provides a method and apparatus for minimizing the confounding effects in near IR spectral measurements attributable to shifts in skin temperature at a tissue measurement site. Spectroscopic monitoring of skin temperature at the measurement site provides near-instantaneous temperature readings by eliminating thermal time constants. A thermistor positioned at the measurement site provides active control. The spectrometer and the temperature control device are incorporated into a single instrument for noninvasive measurement of blood glucose concentration.

567053 A7 B7 五、發明説明() 發明領域 ............:ά: (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 本發明是關於非侵入式組織組成物分析,更明確的 說,本發明是關於可將近紅外光非侵入式血液分析測量 過程中因組織狀態變化所致之光譜效應減至最低的一種 方法與設備。 相關技藝故 線 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 近紅外光(NIR)組織光譜學為一項極有前景的非侵 入式科技,其原理為利用波長範圍為700-2500奈米之遠 紅外光照射組織測量區域。光能量集中於一皮膚區域並 利用不同皮膚組織區域具不同散射與吸收的特性進行量 測。因此,逸散與被偵測得之反射與透射的能量可提供 光所通過組織之體積資訊。而於每一波長呈現之光能量 衰減是結構特性與化學組成的函數。不同組織層包含特 殊的異質分布,所產生之不同光散射的現象便會影響光 的吸收程度。化學組成例如水、蛋白質、脂肪、與血液 分析物在其獨特的吸收波長或指紋區中,吸收度會與濃 度呈比例變化。所以對組織性質、特性、組成之測量原 理即是以偵測因組織對光線獨特的散射或吸收特性所造 成的光衰減進行量測。 當以非侵入式近紅外光光譜法量測血液中分析物, 例如血液中葡萄糖濃度,組織狀態的變異性,例如皮廣 溫度,會造成光譜分析之變異度增大而導致淨分析訊號 的衰減,並難以從其中得到有用的訊號資訊。 第3頁 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS)A4規格(210X297公爱) ---- 567053 A7 B7 五、發明説明() 因人體組織 < 以包含多達百分之八十的水,故會對 近紅外光光譜造成以溫度為函數之學偏移現象。當溫度 增加,水譜帶會因為氫鍵的減少而偏移到較短的波長, 當光照射組織立通過各層皮膚時’光會被各層皮膚之組 成散射或吸收後,才離開皮膚而被光譜儀所偵測。皮膚 溫度變化會以雨種方式對光譜分析產生影響。一是穿越 組織體積的光訊號會含有關於組織的光譜資訊,該資訊 會受到人體組織中光徑的自然溫度梯度影響’另一是人 體皮膚與皮下組織會因為環境或生理因素產生溫度變化 以保持均一的體心溫度。因此一天中,健康人皮膚溫度 會有華氏五度的跳動。這些因素會導致不同批次量測 時,會測得具變異性的皮膚溫度。所以因溫度變動所造 成之水譜帶偏移在同一批次或不同批次之量測中,均會 對數據數值產生影響,並可利用該資料藉多變異數學校 正模式估計分析物濃度。 同一批次或不同批次測量間溫度的變異會增加多變 異數分析的複雜度,並難以從中獲取有用之分析資訊。 溫度變異性大時會造成光譜分析之變異性亦增大而導致 淨分析訊號衰減。除此之外,未控制的皮廣溫度變化有 較高可能與所欲量測的分析物有相關性,此種偶然產生 的相關性會導致可能可以或無法發現的校正錯誤. 先前技藝中,許多光譜方法或設備致力於監測或改 變樣本溫度。例如實施例中,j.

Description of the Invention () Field of Invention ............: ά: (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) This invention is about non-invasive tissue composition analysis More specifically, the present invention relates to a method and device that can minimize the spectral effect caused by the change of tissue state during the non-invasive non-invasive blood analysis and measurement of near-infrared light. Related Techniques: Printed near-infrared light (NIR) tissue spectroscopy by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economics is a promising non-intrusive technology. Its principle is to use far infrared with a wavelength range of 700-2500 nm. Light illuminates the tissue measurement area. The light energy is concentrated in a skin area and measured using different scattering and absorption characteristics of different skin tissue areas. Therefore, the reflected and transmitted energy that escapes and is detected can provide information about the volume of tissue through which light passes. Attenuation of light energy at each wavelength is a function of structural characteristics and chemical composition. Different tissue layers contain special heterogeneous distributions, and different light scattering phenomena will affect the degree of light absorption. Chemical composition such as water, protein, fat, and blood analytes in their unique absorption wavelength or fingerprint region, the absorption will change in proportion to the concentration. Therefore, the measurement principle of tissue properties, characteristics, and composition is to measure the light attenuation caused by the tissue's unique scattering or absorption characteristics of light. When non-invasive near-infrared spectroscopy is used to measure analytes in blood, such as blood glucose concentration, tissue state variability, such as skin temperature, will increase the variability of spectral analysis and cause attenuation of the net analysis signal. , And it ’s hard to get useful signal information from it. Page 3 This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 public love) ---- 567053 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention () Because human tissue < contains up to 80% water, Therefore, the near-infrared light spectrum will cause a scientific shift phenomenon as a function of temperature. When the temperature increases, the water band will shift to a shorter wavelength due to the reduction of hydrogen bonds. When light illuminates the tissue and passes through the skin layers, the light will be scattered or absorbed by the skin components before leaving the skin and being used by the spectrometer. Detected. Changes in skin temperature can affect spectroscopic analysis in the form of rain. One is that the light signal that passes through the volume of tissue will contain spectral information about the tissue, and this information will be affected by the natural temperature gradient of the light path in the human tissue. Uniform body temperature. Therefore, the skin temperature of healthy people will fluctuate 5 degrees Fahrenheit throughout the day. These factors can cause variability in skin temperature when measured in different batches. Therefore, the water band shift caused by temperature changes will affect the data values in the same batch or different batches of measurement, and the data can be used to estimate the analyte concentration by using the multivariate school positive model. Variations in temperature between measurements in the same batch or in different batches can increase the complexity of multivariate analysis and make it difficult to obtain useful analytical information from them. When the temperature variability is large, the variability of the spectral analysis will also increase, resulting in attenuation of the net analysis signal. In addition, there is a high possibility that uncontrolled Piguang temperature changes may be correlated with the analytes to be measured. Such accidental correlations may cause calibration errors that may or may not be found. In previous techniques, Many spectroscopic methods or devices are dedicated to monitoring or changing the temperature of a sample. For example, in the embodiment, US Patent No. 56 1 5672 (April 1, 1 997) owned by j. Braig, D. G 1 dberger, B. Sterling, page 4 This paper standard is applicable to Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specifications (210x297 mm) (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page),-Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 567053 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention Intrusive infrared light spectrum analyzer, this patent describes a self-luminous method for monitoring glucose. The monitor uses a non-invasive method to monitor the emission of glucose in the blood in the range of far infrared light near 100 nm The infrared light is used to measure the glucose concentration in the blood of the subject. The device described above uses infrared light emitted by blood or surrounding tissues to measure the absorption spectrum. A temperature sensing device for measuring the internal temperature of the subject's arm is also used to adjust the composition concentration measurement results affected by temperature-related effects. Because this device measures the infrared light emitted by the subject in the form of body heat, there is no need to prepare an infrared light source. The above device and method need to measure the internal temperature of the subject; however, the temperature measured by the probe is pico-temperature. Therefore, the calculation of the internal temperature to provide a spectral signal compensation method will become a significant source of error in estimating the analyte concentration. In addition, the thermal time constant of the probe can cause a hysteresis of up to 11/2 minutes during measurement. In addition, the device only calculates the part of the spectrum signal that needs to be compensated due to the temperature of the subject. It does not consider controlling the temperature in the target range and providing the optimal temperature of the sample to minimize the temperature-related spectral effects. Meanwhile, Braig, d α /. Mainly considers the range of the middle or far infrared light region. U.S. Patent No. 6002953 (December 1, 4, 199, 9) owned by M. Block is a non-invasive infrared light transmission method for measuring analytes in the eardrum. This patent describes non-invasive methods and devices for measuring blood. To measure the concentration of the analyte, the method is to extend the optical instrument into the external ear canal to transmit electromagnetic waves to the infrared light detection and analysis instrument. This method uses a method of cooling the eardrum to make it different from the temperature of the inner ear, so that the heat is lightly shot.

Order · Printed by the Consumers 'Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, printed 56705 53. Printed by the Consumers' Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, printed A7 B7. Although it is not a non-invasive method to penetrate an optical instrument into the ear canal and cool the tympanic membrane ', this method is compared with other trauma-sampling methods such as venipuncture. This method can be regarded as the least invasive method. The Block method does not perform temperature measurement based on photometry in the measurement area. Cooling the tympanic membrane is also not used to reduce the spectral effects caused by changes in tissue state, but to help transfer thermal energy. Except for cooling the eardrum by non-traditional means, the block device cannot control the temperature in the measurement area. However, the block device provides a non-closed loop, which uses the temperature measurement method in spectroscopy to provide the feedback signal needed to control the temperature in the measurement area. j. Braig, C. Kramer, D. Sterling, D. Goldberger, P. Zheng, A. Shulenberger, R. Trebino, R. King, C. Barnes, US Patent 61 6 1028 (December 12, 2000) ) Is a method for measuring the concentration of analytes by periodic temperature adjustment and phase detection methods. This patent describes a method for measuring analyte concentration using a similar principle to a block device. The device has a temperature gradient of the test sample temperature and uses an infrared detector to measure the selected analyte absorption front and the reference wavelength. Braig et al. Used gradient spectroscopy to enable the temperature of the sample to have a temperature gradient to assist in the transfer of thermal energy so that more thermal radiation can be detected by the detector. This method does not pay attention to the problem of spectral effects caused by the change of tissue state in the measurement area and the interference caused by it to the net analysis signal. In addition to giving the sample temperature a temperature gradient, this method does not consider controlling the sample temperature in the target range to reduce the spectral effect caused by the sample temperature variation.

Description of the invention () In the previous art The unresolved problem must be resolved is the spectral effect caused by changes in tissue state, such as changes in skin temperature, in the measurement of near-infrared light non-invasive blood analytes. The solution can be to monitor the selected tissue state parameters and maintain the parameters within a predetermined target range to reduce the spectral effect. If the spectral method can be used to calculate the correlation between the selected tissue state parameter deviation and the observed spectral effect deviation by using the correction mode, eliminating all the time parameter problems of traditional detection devices will be a major advancement in the technology of monitoring tissue state. Therefore, if the calculated value provided by the closed loop can be used as a feedback signal, a method to determine how to control the selected organization state parameter will be expected. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a method and apparatus for reducing the spectral effects caused by tissue changes during non-invasive in vivo spectral measurements. Multivariate correction mode can be used to monitor the selected tissue state parameter by spectral monitoring by calculating the relationship between the spectral change and the selected tissue state parameter change. This method can achieve almost real-time measurement without an obvious time constant. presence. The parameter value target range can be selected from the experimental value of the spectrum experimental data to select the range that can minimize the spectral effect caused by the change of the selected parameter value. During the measurement process, the selected parameters are continuously monitored, and the calculated values are driven by a closed-loop device that maintains the selected tissue state parameters within a certain target range.

Description of the invention () To reduce the interference effect caused by changes in skin temperature in the tissue area in non-invasive infrared light spectrum measurement. The temperature of the skin located in the measurement area can be calculated by the spectral monitoring method using a multivariate correction mode to calculate the correlation between the skin temperature change and the spectral change. In the present invention, a near-instant measurement can be obtained without the problem of the thermal time constant in the conventional temperature sensing device. The present invention also provides active and passive control methods. The passive control method is achieved by selectively covering and removing the thermal covering for sealing.

Detailed description of the invention The combination of near-infrared light spectrum measurement and skin temperature measurement and near-infrared light skin temperature measurement technology and related skins Page 9 This paper applies Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210X 297 mm) 567053 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention () The temperature reference measurement technology f is used to develop a near-infrared light temperature correction method, which only needs to scan the tissue with near-infrared light to predict the skin surface temperature. The development of correction techniques for spectral analysis requires a variety of multivariate analysis techniques that are familiar to those skilled in the art. Near-infrared skin temperature correction is achieved by using the relationship between the water band displacement at 1450nm and skin temperature changes. ° The correction mode uses displacement information hidden in the multivariate regression coefficient. Temperature measurement and tissue variation control are very important in near-infrared light measurement 'because it can simplify the problem that the analysis signal cannot be obtained due to the complex spectral overlap effect. Using near-infrared light temperature measurement can also save extra temperature measurement hardware costs and avoid the complexity of the analyzer. Compared with the traditional thermistor for measurement, near-infrared light measurement has the advantages of this measurement method without the problem of the traditional thermal time constant in the sensing hardware. When using a thermistor to measure a temperature gradient of 10 degrees Fahrenheit to change the condition of the piconet temperature, it usually takes up to 1 1/2 minutes to obtain a 95% sample temperature. Since it is not affected by the time constant in the traditional measurement methods in the past, it can use the near-instant skin temperature feedback signal to actively control the closed-loop temperature during the measurement. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. Skin temperature correction for multiple persons can be established from the information of a single subject. The result can enable the instrument to establish a general skin temperature correction mode before shipment. The following are active and passive skin temperature control procedures. The skin is irradiated with near-infrared light and the biological analyte of the human subject is estimated from it. The negative effects of skin temperature fluctuations on near-infrared light have the following two aspects: · First, as shown on page 10, this paper applies Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specifications (210X297 mm) 567053 Α7 ______ Β7 V. Description of the invention () If the skin / coverage interacts with the analyte, it may lead to erroneous calibration results. Second, large skin temperature fluctuations will reduce the net analysis signal. The following is a description of the device or process that can be used to actively or passively control the skin temperature to avoid the decrease of the net signal and the generation of real signals. The control program includes determining the target skin temperature, monitoring the real skin temperature, and using active or passive control methods to reach the target temperature. The purpose of the experiment is to: • Identify the effects of skin temperature fluctuations on the near-infrared light spectrum-see Experiment 1 and Experiment II below. • Identify skin temperature patterns during the day or between days and determine the target temperature-see Experiment II and Experiment m. • Test methods to control skin temperature changes to plus or minus 1 degree Fahrenheit. See Experiment III. Methods for controlling skin temperature Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs One of the basic functions of the skin is to keep the body temperature constant. The physiological response to external or internal stimuli will limit the control of skin temperature. Periodic monitoring is a key step in achieving good temperature control. With the present invention, a skilled operator can distinguish the trend of skin temperature and decide to perform passive or active control for temperature compensation, thus calling for keeping the skin temperature in the spectral measurement area stable. The skin temperature can be monitored with a temperature probe attached to the spectrum measurement area within 5 hours. As discussed in Experiment π, the skin temperature pattern is generally lowest in the morning and then gradually increased throughout the day. 11 pages of this paper are in accordance with Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210x297 mm) 567053 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention () The temperature pattern is a positive slope curve that gradually rises and stabilizes with time β as discussed in Experiment III The skin temperature paradigm of healthy and diabetic patients will eventually fall within the range of 90-92 degrees Fahrenheit, which is the representative temperature measured in the afternoon or near evening. The target temperature varies depending on the individual. The following methods are used to achieve or maintain the target range: Passive control Passive control is to wrap the subject's forearm with a heated wrap, which can make the subject's skin temperature quickly in the morning Reach the target temperature. This control method can make the skin temperature increase curve with a steep positive slope in the first hour, and then a more consistent skin temperature at other times of the day. The heating wrap covers the wrist to the elbow, which can increase the temperature of the entire forearm. The heat wrap can be adjusted for tightness or removed to keep the skin temperature within the target range. Active Control Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Active Control uses a copper heating tank with temperature control to quickly change the skin temperature. The heating set point of the copper heating bath can be adjusted to heat or cool the skin. Active control is placed on the area of the skin in contact with the heating tank, which is the same size as the interface of the subject-spectrum analyzer. If the skin temperature exceeds the target range too much before the spectral measurement, the arm is placed on the heating bath for one to two minutes before taking the measurement. The above method can be used as a supplement to keep the skin temperature within the target range.

Description of the invention () Method s-The method chosen depends on the measured skin temperature and the available time before starting the spectral measurement. Deciding whether to use active or passive control depends on the difference between the measured skin temperature and the actual and target temperature. Passive control is suitable for situations where the time interval is more than 2 minutes, while active control is suitable for situations where rapid temperature rise and fall are required. Figure 14 is a flowchart of a general procedure for controlling skin temperature. As described in FIG. 14, the target temperature is an empirical value of 140 established based on the observational spectrum measurement. The empirical range is the temperature range where the spectral variation can be kept to a minimum. By performing a multivariate correction method on the spectral analysis, the near-infrared light spectrum measurement result 141 and the skin temperature value 142 can be collected and the relationship between the skin temperature variation and the spectral effect can be obtained. Estimate the measured temperature reading 143. If it is within the target range, no control program is required. If it exceeds the target range, passive control 1 44, active control i 45, or a combination of the two methods can be used to return the temperature. Into the target range.

Experiment I The effect of skin temperature on the near-infrared spectrum Summary The purpose of this preliminary experiment, printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, was to consider the information contained in the water band in the near-infrared spectrum. Metrics, Inc., Tempe AZ, whether the optical configuration of the optical analysis equipment FOCSI (optical fiber combined scanning equipment) provided is better than the optical configuration of the DRACO spectral analysis equipment of the same company. The water band located at a wavelength of 1450nm will change with the temperature of the sample. 'This makes it difficult to detect samples with a wide range of temperature changes. The distribution of glucose in water and tissues. Therefore, the prediction of glucose in blood must be considered. Water band offset correction strategy to simplify model difficulty. Therefore, the optical design used to evaluate tissue temperature information has become an important design standard for non-invasive glucose monitoring. In this study, at different temperatures, FOCSI was significantly more stable than DRACO in achieving the expected spectral performance. This result may be due to the difficult to explain and correct the temperature effect of the highly variable sample measurement path when performing non-invasive measurements with DRACO.

The invention statement printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs () Introduction 80% of human tissue is composed of water When the temperature of the sample rises, the water band of the near-infrared absorption spectrum will also shift. The water band shifts to shorter wavelengths due to the increase in the pH of the solution or the decrease in hydrogen bonding due to the increase in temperature. The first harmonic band of water in the transmission spectrum at 33 (11) and 4 1 (10) degrees Celsius is plotted in Figure 1, because in the living body measurement, the natural temperature of the living tissue in the optical sampling path The spectral effect caused by the change will appear in the measured wave science. Measuring glucose for this kind of thermal energy as a complex sample matrix is one of the challenges in performing near-infrared light spectroscopy in vivo measurement. Because the use of near-out light to measure tissue on the skin surface and tissue will have a localized effect, the most accurate tissue temperature compensation is derived from spectral measurements. However, the temperature needle cannot extend into the optical path without affecting the measurement, so the non-invasive temperature probe does not take into account the temperature gradient in the tissue. The most effective method for compensating for tissue temperature fluctuations requires sufficient spectral data on the position and shape of the water band. The shape of the water band is also affected by the light properties of the tissue, so it is more important to obtain a spectral scan with high information value. Based on the above considerations, because the instrumentation on the device or the sampling will affect the shape of the water band, special attention should be paid to this when designing a near-infrared non-invasive glucose measurement device. The degree of redness was used to enter the experimental section. Six subjects were scanned by FOCSI and DRACO spectrometers. Each subject underwent two experiments.

Description of the invention () Scanning was performed under normal external skin temperature. In the second experiment, the subject's skin was pre-heated to 3.5 degrees Fahrenheit higher than normal skin temperature. Measurements before the study establish the following rules for spectral measurement: contact the arm with the device and the interface of the subject for three minutes before performing the spectral measurement, which can reduce the problem of rapid changes in body temperature and physiological phenomena. In the experiment, the skin temperature detector yellow spring OH with YSI, INC. YSI · 4000 type, the minimum reading of which is plus or minus 0.05 degrees Fahrenheit, is placed about 5 mm away from the measurement area, and the temperature is recorded every 30 seconds. The scan time took two minutes. The intensity is 80% of the standard reflection. The reference spectrum of the intensity is obtained directly before and after the in vivo measurement. ........... h 丨 丨 丨 · (Please read the notes on the back before filling out this page) The results and discussions printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs were passed on the six subjects. The scanning results obtained by the various spectroscopic devices are used to discuss temperature-dependent effects. In three of the remaining four patients who underwent a FOCSI scan, it was found that the temperature-related effects were consistent with changes in tissue sample temperature distribution, but compared to the results of the DRACO scan, the temperature-related effects were less pronounced. In Figures 2 and 3, FOCSI is used to measure two subjects at two different temperatures. One group of spectra was measured when the skin temperature was higher than that of the other group (2 ^. 5 degrees Fahrenheit (2 1, 3 0). "Obviously, the higher the temperature during scanning, the higher the absorption wavelength at 1450nm and 1 650 -1700nm < The greater the difference in the intensity of the lowest absorption wavelength. The edge of the spectral peak measured at high temperature falls within the low-temperature spectrum and its position is the length of the 145Onm water band. The skin length range β is heated by heating The narrowing of the water temperature range in the organization. Page 16 This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X 297 mm). Order 567053 A7 B7 5. When the invention description (), the spectral differences also have consistent changes Therefore, sharper peaks can be obtained. According to the scattering theory, tissue scattering will increase with increasing temperature. The most severe scattering phenomenon in the spectral region is the short wavelength range of the second overtone region at 1100-1 300 nm. After the second overtone region, the scattering phenomenon will disappear rapidly. The ability of the sample to absorb light will be suppressed due to the increase in temperature. This phenomenon is consistent with the originally expected optical characteristics of the tissue. The phenomenon that the increase of the absorbance decreases as the result of the increase is most obvious in the first harmonic region, but it is also obvious in the first harmonic region where there is a strong absorption spectrum characteristic, such as the maximum absorption of the water band. The cooperative prints Figure 4 and Figure 5, which are the corresponding scans 40, 50, 41, and 51 obtained by DRACO. As mentioned earlier, the temperature effect is not as good as in Figures 2 and 3. The effect of the spectrum on the spectrum is obvious. Based on the skin temperature of the subject, the calculated different spectra should contain relevant spectral information about tissue temperature changes. Consistent measurements should be available on different subjects Similar graphs were obtained in the measured spectra. Figure 6 shows the spectrum obtained by subtracting the measured spectrum of DRACO from the subject at different picotemperatures, and Figure 7 shows the same as the FOCSI measurement. The result obtained after subtraction. The graph obtained by subtracting the spectrum measured at high temperature from the spectrum measured at low temperature. The spectrum measured by FOCSI is more consistent than that obtained by DRACO. In the second harmonic region The temperature-induced scattering effect observed nearby is consistent with the scattering research done on FOCSI. 'Because the positive residual spectrum obtained by subtracting the high-temperature spectrum from the low-temperature spectrum, we can know that the tissue scattering caused by the temperature rise is showing an increasing trend. Figures 6 and 7 also clearly show that the measurement on page 17 is based on the Chinese paper standard (CNS) A4 specification (21〇297297) on the paper scale. 567053 A7 B7 5. The spectrum of the invention () It is more difficult to interpret the spectral measurement results at normal temperature and high temperature than FOCSI. It may be because the sensor positioning and pressure in the DRACO optical system make the DRACO optical system more sensitive to tissue sampling and surface reflection. The Intellectual Property Bureau employee consumer cooperative printed in the temperature test, the results can be determined that using the FOCSI test subject interface module to collect and identify living body spectral measurement data, will be more efficient than using the DRACO test subject interface module. The spectral gap measured at normal temperature or heated tissue is two digits below the decimal point of the absorption unit value, so that under these conditions, the spectrum measured by the DRACO detector will be impossible due to the noise of the DRACO detector. Compare. The biggest difference between different devices is in the optical sampling system: between the single optical device and the sample and between the sample and the detector. DRACO uses a traditional lens system and FOCSI uses an optical fiber transmission system. The influence of reflection variation and large-scale optical path distribution will lead to the phenomenon of widening the water band and the uncertainty of the band shape at the wavelength of 145 nm. For a discussion of this phenomenon, please refer to JD Hardy, HT Hammel, D Murgatroyd, J. Appl. Phvsiol .. 9: 257 (1 956) 〇The FOCSI system is not affected by the wide surface reflection changes, and the optical path distribution is also narrow. . These optical differences between DRACO and FOCSI will result in less information in the water band when measured with DRACO ^ In addition, other less important determinants may limit the interpretation of temperature-dependent spectral changes , But may also be better explained as a result. Page 18 This paper size is in accordance with Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) 567053 A7 ____ B7_ V. Description of the invention () Excitingly, the spectral variation and contrast obtained by scanning with F 0 C SI The expected spectral shifts of water and human tissues are consistent with optical scattering characteristics. Obviously, the relationship between the spectral variation of the system obtained by the DRACO experiment and the skin temperature does not have such a consistent result. The reason may be the result of the variation of the skin surface reflection between the samples. Unfortunately, even the smallest variation in surface reflections in measurements between different batches of the same subject can cause variations in the size and shape of the water band, making it impossible or difficult to interpret temperature-dependent spectral variations. Temperature, pressure, physiological response, and sample position are all related to scattering phenomena of living samples and related changes in the average optical path. To compensate for temperature, it is necessary to separate temperature-related changes from other effects. However, it is more difficult to separate the Pi Guang temperature status from other information on DRACO instrument measurement, because the spectral variation caused by non-temperature factors during DRACO measurement is greater than F 0 C SI. The consistency of the information obtained in this experiment with the results shows that the fiber-based equipment has a better performance in providing compensation for the spectral changes caused by temperature. 0 Experiment 2 Skin Temperature Model Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to identify uncontrolled Or the skin temperature paradigm when passively controlling the skin temperature. In both cases, the Piguang temperature was the lowest in the morning and then gradually increased to a stable temperature. The passively controlled or uncontrolled skin temperature patterns are similar to each other in temperature change process, but the situation of passive control is less likely to happen suddenly. Page 19 This paper size is in accordance with Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) 567053 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention () Experiment Eight subjects were divided into a rain group ', each group consisting of three males and one female. Each subject measured the Piguang temperature model under uncontrolled and passive control conditions every three hours from 9 am to 6 pm for three consecutive days. The first set of skin temperature is a THERMAX wrap covering the measurement area of the forearm to passively control the skin temperature. In the second group, the first day was covered with THERMAX, and the second and third days were covered with wool for the entire forearm. In both groups, uncontrolled temperature measurements were taken using the subject's other uncoated forearm. The skin temperature is measured using the YSI4000 temperature probe. Results and discussion The observation results showed that the initial skin temperature was related to the subject's clothing. The subjects wearing long sleeves had higher initial skin temperature. All subjects were right-handed, and observations showed that the temperature of the right arm was higher. The skin temperature of the subject is not necessarily related to room temperature. Usually, the arm skin temperature rises rapidly in the morning, and then after the first stage, it shows a steady or final gradual decline, or it continues to increase in a gentler trend. In the passive control group, the subjects had the highest daily skin temperature, and seven out of eight had temperatures of about 9 1-93 degrees Fahrenheit. The minimum temperature measured daily is highly variable and may be related to irritating beverages such as coffee or soft drinks. When the skin temperature is controlled passively, it is less sensitive to sudden changes in external temperature, such as when the subject is out of the house. After the rapid temperature increase in the morning, control page 20 This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Staff of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Printed by the Consumer Cooperative 567053 A7 _ B7 V. Description of the invention () Please read the precautions on the back or the uncontrolled temperature model is generally consistent with the trajectory, and the distance between the trajectories of the time and the trajectory is also kept substantially constant. This phenomenon may be because the sympathetic nervous system stabilizes the temperature and the temperature of the uncontrolled arm. Finally, it can be observed that when the forearm is covered with a fleece sleeve, the skin temperature can increase by about 2-9 degrees Fahrenheit. Conclusion Skin temperature is affected by many environmental and physiological phenomena. The passive control method can reduce the fluctuation of the skin temperature to within plus or minus one degree Fahrenheit, and the passive temperature control can suppress the phenomenon of rapid skin temperature increase. Experiment 3: Preliminary effects of skin temperature on sample reproducibility Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs This study focuses on the relationship between skin temperature and non-invasive spectrum, especially the impact of large skin temperature changes on sampling accuracy β In this experiment, non-invasive spectral data were collected on three subjects with large temperature changes and controlled temperature changes. Preliminary results show that the smallest change in skin temperature can lead to a reduction in the spectral variation of the wavelength in the range of 1500-600 nm. Foreword After collecting the skin temperature data of the first group of diabetic patients who received continuous oral glucose tolerance test several times, it can be found that the Chinese national standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) is applied differently or the same as the paper on page 21. 567053 Α7 Β7 V. Description of the invention () The skin temperature measured after four hours has changed greatly. There can be several reasons for this temperature fluctuation, such as environmental or physiological factors. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the effect of large temperature changes on the stability between samples. In the second group of healthy subjects, it can be observed that the skin temperature change can be as large as 5 degrees Fahrenheit on normal working days. The tester obtained two sets of data. The first set of data included non-invasive measurement of samples with a temperature difference of up to 8 degrees Fahrenheit, and the other group measured samples with temperature differences controlled within two degrees Fahrenheit. Experimental procedure The three subjects involved in the experiment were one female and two males. Before the measurement, the measurement area was covered with room temperature vulcanized silicone rubber for 4 5 minutes. One was manufactured by Metrics, Inc. of Tempe AZ. F〇CSI9 (scanning equipment combined with optical fiber) spectroscopy equipment to collect data, optical bonding liquid (FLUORINERT FC-40) provided by 3M company St. Paul MN is used to connect the measurement area with the optical fiber probe of the spectrometer Closer integration. Each sample was subjected to a reference scan (80% standard reflection) and a scan of polyethylene. The YSI temperature probe provided by YSI, Inc. of Yellow springs 0H was printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. In the case of large or minimal changes in skin temperature, 5-8 samples were collected. The sample with minimized temperature fluctuations refers to the sample with technical temperature, which is the sample that measures the arm area to 91 degrees Fahrenheit by using a passive method using a small blanket. For uncontrolled samples with large temperature changes, the sample temperature range is 86-93 degrees Fahrenheit. Page 22 This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297). 567053 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention () Data analysis preprocessing steps include baseline calibration before data collection, standardization of X-coordinate axis, and detection of disparity points Measurement and conversion of absorbance should be prepared before analysis. For each sample, 16 raster scans are performed and the flat chirp is added. A 35-point first-order Savitsky-Golay filter can be used to obtain the first derivative spectrum. The square root of the standard deviation of each group of samples is defined as the spectral variation. The smaller the spectral variation, the simpler the matrix for partial least squares mode. In addition, the mean root error is used to evaluate the sample repeatability of the controlled and uncontrolled samples. The wavelength available for the 彳 彳 detector (1.9 // m detector uses a wavelength of 1 1 00-1 7 00nm and 2 · 6 # m detector uses a wavelength of 1 40 0-2 400nm) is used to determine These values. Results Figure 8 is a plot of spectral variation and wavelength using clinical experimental data from the first group of subjects. The data includes samples from two different batches of clinical trials, and the samples are classified based on the picotemperature. The standard deviation of skin temperature is 0.3 8 degrees (80) and 2.73 degrees (81). When the skin temperature changes very little, the spectral variation of 1500-1600nm will be greatly reduced. The second set of tests also indicated that reducing skin temperature variation can reduce spectral variation. Figure 9-1 1 is a graph drawn based on the spectral changes detected by the 1 · 9 e m detector and the wavelengths irradiating the subjects 1-3. Figure 9A-1 丨 a shows the standard error in skin temperature of 2.73 degrees (90, 100, 10) and Fahrenheit on page 23. This paper applies Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (21GX297) (Please read the precautions on the back before # this page) Order-Printed by the Consumers' Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 567053 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention () Spectral variograms plotted separately at 0.38 degrees. Figure 9B-1 1B shows the corresponding controlled or uncontrolled temperature model. Similar results can be observed in the wavelength range 1 500-1600 nm used by the 2 · 6 // m detector. Figures 1, 2, and 3 are the values of the mean root error, which are used to indicate the repeatability of the sample data. When the temperature variation is controlled, the variability between different samples measured by the detectors 1 and 2 with i. 9 // m detector will be slightly reduced. Use 2 · 6 // m on the subjects 2 and 3 The inter-sample variability obtained by the detector will be lower. Both studies have shown that a smaller skin temperature variation can reduce the spectral variation of the spectral region used by the spectroscopic instrument. In addition to the skin temperature of a single subject changing over time, the skin temperature range between subjects also varies. For example, the outside temperature is warm, and at different times of the day, the contact with the device interface module of the device and the clothing, the intensity of the activity will affect the skin temperature of the person. Because many of these parameters are included, it is not possible to determine a standard temperature for non-invasive spectral data collection. However, it is possible to reduce the fluctuation of the skin temperature to reduce the spectral variation in the spectral range used by the detection instrument. To reduce spectral fluctuations, skin temperature can be maintained at 89-91 degrees Fahrenheit.
