It is understandable that based on the principle of the Doppler effect, when the ward generates the response echo in response to the detection microwave, the frequency and/or phase of the microwave will change, so that the detection microwave The wave frequency and/or phase are different from the wave frequency and/or phase of the response echo.

Description
本发明涉及护理领域,特别涉及一监护系统和监护方法,其中所述监护系统基于一被监护人于一非可视的监护环境的行为监护所述被监护人。
通常,在医院,病人是被监护的对象,而实际生活中,越来越多的老人和婴幼儿也需要被监护。技术的发展允许在医院通过专业的设备监护病人的相应身体指标,在生活中,也允许亲人(例如老人的儿女、婴幼儿的父母等)利用技术手段在远程监护老人和婴幼儿的实时状况。例如,亲人可以在老人或者婴幼儿所处环境安装摄像设备,在通过摄像设备拍摄老人或者婴幼儿所处环境的影像并利用互联网传输影像至亲人的手机、电脑等带有显示屏幕的电子设备后,亲人可以利用电子设备查看老人或者婴幼儿在所处环境的行为,如此亲人可以在远程监护老人或者婴幼儿的实时状况。例如,在敬老院、养老院、老人独居环境等场所安装摄像设备和网络设备,以用于监护老人的实时状况,或者在家居环境场所安装摄像设备和网络设备,以用于监护婴幼儿的实时状况。然而,在作为公共医疗场所的医院内,为维护病房内的病人的隐私,一般病房不允许安装摄像头,只能通过用于监护病人的相应身体指标的专业设备监护病人的相应身体指标。虽然利用摄像技术拍摄老人或者婴幼儿所处环境的影像的方式能够准确地获得老人或者婴幼儿的实时状况,但是这样的方式会使得老人或者婴幼儿所处环境是被可视的,进而导致老人或者婴幼儿在所处环境无隐私可言,并且受制于图像识别技术的技术瓶颈和成本,利用摄像技术拍摄老人或者婴幼儿所处环境的影像的方式在老人或者婴幼儿处于危险的行为活动状态时实现自动警报并不准确可靠而无法完全脱离人工监护,并且难以通过简单的图像识别获取被监护的老人或者婴幼儿的身体状态,如心跳骤停,呼吸困难等危险状态下的身体状态。
也就是说,现有的基于摄像技术对被监护人的监护行为难以通过简单的图像识别获取被监护人的身体状态,因而片面于被监护人的行为状态监护,而基于摄像技术对被监护人的行为监护会侵犯被监护人的隐私,并对被监护人而言,尤其是病人或老人,在可被摄像技术基于图像识别技术识别的人体行为活动状态中, 危险的行为活动状态往往发生在极其隐私的场所,如被监护人于洗手间的大小便行为或洗浴行为,因此基于摄像技术的行为监护既不准确可靠,也因无法完全放弃隐私而不全面。

还值得一提的是,在本发明的这个较佳示例中,所述微波探测器20被设置能够辐射所述探测微波和接收所述响应回波,而在本发明的另一个较佳示例中,所述微波探测器20可以仅具备辐射所述探测微波或者接收所述响应回波的功能,从而通过两个所述微波探测器20中的一个所述微波探测器20向所述监护环境100辐射所述探测微波和两个所述微波探测器20中的另一个所述微波探测器20接收生成于所述监护环境100的所述响应回波的方式为所述监护系统10提供检测所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作的数据。
参考附图1,所述监护系统10包括一通信单元11、一传译单元12以及一检 测单元13,其中所述传译单元12被可通信地连接于所述通信单元11,所述检测单元13被可通信地连接于所述传译单元12。所述监护系统10的所述通信单元11被可通信地连接于所述微波探测器20,以允许所述通信单元11接收所述微波探测器20接收的和关联于所述被监护人的所述响应回波。所述传译单元12传译关联于所述被监护人的所述响应回波,所述检测单元13根据所述传译单元12的传译结果检测所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作。
具体地,所述传译单元12被设置以基于多普勒效应原理混频检波所述响应回波并趋势化被混频检波的所述响应回波和对被趋势化的所述响应回波进行波频分类的方式传译关联于所述被监护人的所述响应回波,以得到一传译结果,从而在后续,所述检测单元13能够根据所述传译单元12的所述传译结果检测所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为。
所述传译单元12被设置以趋势化处理所述响应回波的方式能够减弱甚至去除杂波对表示所述被监护人的具体动作的响应回波的干扰,例如,所述监护系统10通过所述传译单元12趋势化处理所述响应回波的方式能够减弱于所述监护环境100内转动的风扇、被吹动的窗帘等干扰物体对于所述响应回波的干扰。
所述传译单元12被设置以允许所述响应回波通过至少一滤波器(例如但不限于低通滤波器)的方式趋势化所述响应回波和对所述响应回波进行波频分类而得到所述传译结果。可以理解的是,通过改变所述滤波器的滤波参数的方式能够调整对所述响应回波的波频进行分类的标准。
例如,成年人的静息呼吸频率一般为0.2-0.4次/秒,因此,若所述传译单元12通过传译关联于所述被监护人的所述响应回波得到所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作频率低于1Hz的所述传译结果时,所述检测单元13可以检测到所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作为呼吸动作。再例如,在安静状态下,正常成年人的心率为1.0-1.7次/秒,大多数为1.0-1.3次/秒,正常儿童(3岁以下)的心率在1.3次/秒以上,通常低于2.5次/秒,因此,若所述传译单元12通过传译关联于所述被监护人的所述响应回波得到所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作频率低于3Hz的所述传译结果时,所述检测单元13可以检测到所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作为心跳动作。
在本发明中,所述监护系统10通过所述传译单元12被设置以趋势化所述响应回波和对被趋势化的所述响应回波进行波频分类的方式传译关联于所述被监 护人的所述响应回波的方式,能够使得所述检测单元13根据所述传译单元12的所述传译结果准确地检测所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作。尤其是,述监护系统10通过所述传译单元12被设置以趋势化所述响应回波和对被趋势化的所述响应回波进行波频分类的方式传译关联于所述被监护人的所述响应回波的方式,能够使得所述检测单元13根据所述传译单元12的所述传译结果准确地检测所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的微动动作,这样,所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为在后续能够被准确地判断。
值得一提的是,趋势化所述响应回波的内容包括以所述响应回波的幅度变化为基准对所述响应回波进行趋势化处理、或者以所述响应回波的相位变化为基准对所述响应回波进行趋势化处理、或者以所述响应回波的脉冲宽度变化为基准对所述响应回波进行趋势化处理、或者以所述响应回波的频率变化为基准对所述响应回波进行趋势化处理。
进一步地,所述监护系统10包括一判断单元14,其中所述判断单元14被可通信地连接于所述检测单元13。所述判断单元14根据所述检测单元13检测的所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作判断所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为。本领域技术人员应当理解的是,所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为体现为所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的具体动作,从而在所述检测单元13准确地检测到所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作后,尤其是在所述检测单元13准确地检测所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的微动动作后,所述判断单元14根据所述检测单元13的检测结果能够准确地判断所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为。
特别地,基于微波扫描的人体姿态监测,所述判断单元14基于监测到人体姿态判断所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为。
例如,在所述监护环境100,若所述被监护人的腿部和手臂均不断地摆动且所述被监护人的位置产生变化时,表明所述被监护人的行为可能是走动行为;若所述被监护人的腿部没有摆动而仅手部摆动时,则表面所述被监护人的行为是阅读行为;若所述被监护人的四肢均没有摆动而仅胸腔有规律地往复运动时,则表明所述被监护人的行为是睡眠行为;若所述被监护人的心跳平稳时,则表明所述被监护人的行为是深度睡眠行为;若所述被监护人由站姿突然转换为坐姿或者躺姿时,则表明所述被监护人的行为可能是跌倒行为。
优选地,所述判断单元14根据所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的两个或以上的动作的组合判断所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为,从而提高所述判断单元14的判断结果的准确性,以供准确地判断所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为。例如,所述判断单元14根据所述被监护人于所述监护环境100内由站姿突然转换为坐姿或者躺姿的姿态转换动作和心跳异常动作来判断所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为是跌倒行为,或者所述判断单元14根据所述被监护人于所述监护环境100内由站姿突然转换为坐姿或者躺姿的姿态转换动作和呼吸异常动作来判断所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为是跌倒行为,或者所述判断单元14根据所述被监护人于所述监护环境100内由站姿突然转换为坐姿或者躺姿的姿态转换动作和手部抚摸心脏部位的动作来判断所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为是跌倒行为。
优选地,所述判断单元14能够基于所述被监护人在至少一个连续时间段(例如但不限于1分钟、5分钟、10分钟等)内的动作判断所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为,以提高所述判断单元14的判断结果的准确性,以供准确地判断所述被监护人于所述监护环境100内的行为。例如,若仅基于所述被监护人的四肢均没有摆动而仅胸腔运动的动作判断所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为是睡眠行为,则可能不够准确,因为此时所述被监护人可能处于阅读行为时的思考状态,此时,若基于至少一个连续时间段内所述被监护人的四周均没有摆动而仅胸腔运动的动作判断所述被监护人的行为是睡眠行为,则准确度更高。
进一步地,所述监护系统10包括一控制单元15,其中所述控制单元15被可通信地连接于所述判断单元14和至少一报警器30,其中所述控制单元15被设置能够根据所述判断单元14的判断结果控制所述报警器30的状态。换言之,所述控制单元15被设置能够根据所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为控制所述报警器30的状态。例如,当所述判断单元14判断所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为是跌倒行为时,所述控制单元15被设置能够控制所述报警器30报警,以提醒所述监护人帮助所述被监护人。

值得一提的是,所述报警器30的类型在本发明中不受限制,例如所述报警器30可以是但不限于报警铃、报警灯。

值得一提的是,所述电子设备40的类型在本发明中不受限制,例如所述电子设备40可以是智能手机、平板电脑、笔记本电脑、智能手表、电纸书等任何能够与通信网络200通信的设备。
特别地,在本发明的一些实施例中,所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为异常数据被记录,如于云端存储介质被存储而被记录,或于所述电子设备40被记录,以供监护人或监护机构查看和统计。
在本发明的另一个示例中,所述控制单元15被可通信地连接于所述通信单元11,其中所述通信单元11通过所述通信网络200被可通信地连接至一医疗系统50,从而当所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为出现异常时,例如当所述被监护人于所述监护环境100跌倒时,所述监护系统10能够通过所述通信网络200发送一个报警信息至所述医疗系统50,以使所述医疗系统50分配所述报警信息至一个医疗机构,从而所述医疗机构的具有急救知识的人员能够至所述监护环境100帮助所述被监护人。
具体地,所述监护系统10被应用于一个独居环境,其中所述监护环境100被具体化为一个独居房屋,所述被监护人被具体为一个独居老人,其中所述微波探测器20和所述通信网络200被布置于所述独居房屋。当所述监护系统10的所述判断单元14判断所述独居老人于所述独居房屋的行为是跌倒行为时,所述控制单元15能够主动地生成所述报警信息,并且记载所述报警信息的数据能够通过所述通信单元11基于所述通信网络200被发送至所述医疗系统50,所述医疗系统50在接收所述报警信息后能够分配所述报警信息至所述医疗机构,从而所述医疗机构的具有急救知识的人员能够至所述独居房屋帮助所述独居老人。优选地,当所述监护系统10的所述判断单元14判断所述独居老人于所述独居房屋的行为是跌倒行为时,所述控制单元15在主动地生成所述报警信息的同时生成所述提醒信息,并且记载所述提醒信息的数据能够通过所述通信单元11基于所述通信网络200被发送至所述亲人持有的所述电子设备40,以帮助所述亲人及时地获知所述独居老人于所述独居房屋的状态。

所述监护装置60的所述通信接口63可以通过所述通信网络200被可通信地连接于所述微波探测器20、所述报警器30、所述电子设备40和医疗系统50,从而所述监护装置60能够从所述微波探测器20接收被所述微波探测器20接收的和关联于所述被监护人的所述响应回波,和所述监护装置60能够提供所述报警信息至所述报警器30和提供所述提醒信息至所述电子设备20。
所述监护装置60的所述存储器62可以是但不限于非易失性存储器,其能够用于存储被所述处理器61执行以进行以下操作的指令:
(A)传译关联于非可视的所述监护环境100的所述被监护人的所述响应回波,以得到所述传译结果;
(B)根据所述传译结果检测所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作;以及

值得一提的是,在所述操作(A)中,相对于以可视的方式检测所述被监护 人的动作的方式,本发明提供的以非可视的方式检测所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作的方式有利于保护所述被监护人的隐私。
进一步地,在所述操作(A)中,所述处理器61进一步执行被存储于所述存储器62的指令以进行操作:

(A.2)趋势化被混频检波的所述响应回波;和

具体地,所述处理器61在执行被存储于所述存储器62的指令时能够以趋势化所述响应回波和对被趋势化的所述响应回波进行波频分类的方式传译被趋势化的所述响应回波。具体地,所述处理器61被设置允许所述响应回波通过至少一个所述滤波器,以允许所述滤波器趋势化所述响应回波和对被趋势化的所述响应回波进行波频分类,从而在后续所述检测单元13根据被趋势化的所述响应回波的波频能够检测所述被监护人的动作。例如,成年人的静息呼吸频率一般为0.2-0.4次/秒,因此,若所述响应回波在通过所述滤波器后的频率低于1Hz,则所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作被检测为呼吸动作。再例如,在安静状态下,正常成年人的心率为1.0-1.7次/秒,大多数为1.0-1.3次/秒,正常儿童(3岁以下)的心率在1.3次/秒以上,通常低于2.5次/秒,若所述响应回波在通过所述滤波器后的频率低于3Hz,则所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作被检测为心跳动作。

参考附图8A和图8B,在所述监护装置60的所述处理器61被设置根据所述老年人于所述房间100a的姿态转换动作判断所述老年人于所述房间100a的行为是跌倒行为时,所述处理器61被设置基于所述通信网络200发送所述报警信息至所述医疗系统50,此时,所述医疗系统50分配所述报警信息至所述医疗机构,从而所述医疗机构的具有急救知识的人员能够至所述监护环境100帮助所述老年人。
附图9示出了本发明的所述监护系统10的监护流程900,其中所述监护流程900包括如下阶段:
阶段901,至少一个所述微波探测器20向所述监护环境100辐射所述探测微波,和所述微波探测器20接收关联于所述被监护人的所述响应回波。可以理解的是,基于多普勒效应的原理,当所述被监护人响应所述探测微波而生成所述响应回波时会使得微波波频和/或相位产生变化,从而使得所述探测微波的波频和/或相位与所述响应回波的波频和/或相位不同。
阶段902,趋势化所述响应回波。可以理解的是,通过趋势化所述响应回波的方式能够减弱甚至去除杂波对表示所述被监护人的具体动作的所述响应回波的干扰,以提高在后续检测所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作的准确性。例如,通过趋势化所述响应回波的方式能够减弱于所述监护环境100内转动的风扇、被吹动的窗帘对所述响应回波的干扰,从而有利于提高在后续检测所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作的准确性。
阶段903,对被趋势化的所述响应回波进行波频分类,以得到所述传译结果。具体地,通过允许所述响应回波通过至少一个所述滤波器的方式能够趋势化所述响应回波和对所述响应回波进行分类,以传译所述响应回波而得到所述传译结果。例如,被趋势化的所述响应回波具有一个较为宽泛的波频范围,该波频范围可以是1Hz-50Hz,在允许所述响应回波通过多个所述滤波器时,该波频范围可以被分类为1Hz以内、1Hz-3Hz、3Hz-25Hz、25Hz-50Hz。
阶段904,根据所述传译结果,检测所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作。可以理解的是,所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的不同的动作对应被趋势化的所述响应回波的不同波频范围。例如,成年人的静息呼吸频率一般为0.2-0.4次/秒,因此,当被趋势化的所述响应回波的波频范围为1Hz以内时,所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作可以是胸腔往复动作。再例如,在安静状态下,正常成年人的心率为1.0-1.7次/秒,大多数为1.0-1.3次/秒,正常儿童(3岁以下)的心率在1.3次/秒以上,通常低于2.5次/秒,因此,当被趋势化的所述响应回波的波频范围为1Hz-3Hz时,所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作可以是心跳动作。
阶段905,根据所述被监护人的动作,判断所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为,以供监护所述被监护人。优选地,根据所述被监护人于至少一个连续时间段内的动作,判断所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为,以提高判断结果的准确性。更优选地,根据所述被监护人的两个或以上的动作的组合判断被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为,以进一步提高判断结果的准确性。
依本发明的另一个方面,本发明进一步提供一监护方法,其中所述监护方法包括如下步骤:
(a)允许所述被监护人响应被辐射至所述监护环境100的所述探测微波,以生成所述响应回波;
(b)传译所述响应回波,以得到所述传译结果;
(c)根据所述传译结果,检测所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的动作;以及
(d)根据所述被监护人的动作,判断所述被监护人于所述监护环境100的行为。
优选地,在所述步骤(a)之前,所述监护方法进一步包括步骤:(e)通过所述微波探测器20辐射所述探测微波至所述响应回波;在所述步骤(a)之后,所述监护方法进一步包括步骤:(f)通过所述微波探测器20接收所述被监护人响应的所述响应回波,从而在所述步骤(b)中,传译所述微波探测器接收的所述被监护人响应的所述响应回波。
进一步地,所述步骤(b)进一步包括步骤:
(a.1)混频检波所述响应回波;
(a.2)趋势化被混频检波的所述响应回波;和
(a.3)分类被趋势化的所述响应回波的波频,以传译所述响应回波而得到所述传译结果。
