一種偵測精神疾病的系統 A system for detecting mental illness

本發明係關於一種偵測精神疾病的系統,尤指一種透過分析與判讀腦波訊號以檢測精神疾病的系統。 The present invention relates to a system for detecting mental illness, and more particularly to a system for detecting mental illness by analyzing and interpreting brainwave signals.

按,隨著現代醫學的高度發展與醫療技術的日新月異,一些以往難以治療的疑難雜症已逐步的發現治療之道;但是,根據已知的研究資料顯示,現代醫學對於多數精神疾病的產生原因仍無法清楚瞭解。 According to the rapid development of modern medicine and the rapid development of medical technology, some intractable diseases that have been difficult to treat in the past have gradually discovered the treatment; however, according to known research data, modern medicine is the cause of most mental illnesses. Still can't understand clearly.

目前所能確定的是,精神疾病是腦功能障礙之表現,意即精神疾病是大腦功能不穩定所造成的結果,其最主要可分為精神病(psychosis)及精神官能症(neurosis)兩大範疇,所述的精神包含了行為、情緒、認知及生理驅力四部份,其分別由腦部特定神經化學通路與特定的腦部位所調控,當特定部位或特定神經化學通路發生障礙,就會發生特定精神症狀及對應的精神疾病。 What is currently identifiable is that mental illness is a manifestation of brain dysfunction, meaning that mental illness is the result of unstable brain function, which can be divided into two major categories: psychosis (psychosis) and neurosis (neurosis). The spirit includes four parts: behavioral, emotional, cognitive, and physiological drive, which are regulated by specific brain chemical pathways and specific brain parts, and when specific parts or specific neurochemical pathways are impeded, Specific psychiatric symptoms and corresponding mental illnesses can occur.

而精神科醫師在看診時,通常是透過繁複的診療程序包含生理檢查、問卷量表及問診後,輔以發作誘因測試,最後依據診斷標準及醫師本身主觀的診斷是否構成精神疾病;但由於醫師問診時需參考病患或其家人的描述及問卷結果來作診斷,許多初期精神疾病到目前為止 仍沒有特定儀器檢驗可作為診斷依據,所以倘若醫師以問卷結果及個人主觀判定,有時就會形成不同的診斷結果,甚至會互相矛盾的情況。這樣的結果並非醫師與病患所樂見,且一旦誤服非對症之藥,不但對治療沒有幫助,反而會造成身心上的負擔,實非病患求診的初衷。 When a psychiatrist visits a doctor, he or she usually includes a physical examination, a questionnaire, and a consultation through a complicated medical procedure, supplemented by an inducement test, and finally based on the diagnostic criteria and the subjective diagnosis of the physician itself constitutes a mental illness; Physicians should refer to the description of the patient or his family and the results of the questionnaire for diagnosis. Many initial mental illnesses have been There is still no specific instrument test that can be used as a basis for diagnosis. Therefore, if the doctor uses the results of the questionnaire and the subjective judgment of the individual, sometimes different diagnosis results may be formed, and even contradictory situations may occur. This result is not the result of the doctor and the patient, and once the drug is mistreated, it will not only help the treatment, but will cause a physical and mental burden, which is not the original intention of the patient.
