应当理解,尽管关于图1-6描述的特征涉及与穿戴在用户的左臂上的可穿戴式诊断装置,但可穿戴式诊断装置可以具有其他各种形式,并且在一些情况下,可以穿戴或施用于用户身体的其他部位。此外,一个或多个另外的组件可以被包括在可穿戴式诊断装置中或与之偶联。例如,在一些实施方式中,可穿戴式诊断装置可以包括一个或多个扬声器来使用声波和麦克风输出信息,以接收与例如用户指令、请求或反馈相对应的音频输入。It should be understood that although the features described with respect to FIGS. 1-6 relate to a wearable diagnostic device worn on the left arm of a user, the wearable diagnostic device may take various other forms and, in some cases, may be worn or Apply to other parts of the user's body. Additionally, one or more additional components may be included in or coupled to the wearable diagnostic device. For example, in some embodiments, a wearable diagnostic device may include one or more speakers to output information using sound waves and a microphone to receive audio input corresponding to, for example, user instructions, requests, or feedback.
在一些实施方式中,可穿戴式诊断装置还可以被配置为执行一项或多项诊断测试,以基于接收的或获得的与用户健康相关的信息,获得与穿戴可穿戴式诊断装置的用户相关的葡萄糖水平、血红蛋白水平或血压水平中的一项或多项。这些过程进一步描述在图7-12中。In some embodiments, the wearable diagnostic device may also be configured to perform one or more diagnostic tests to obtain information related to the user wearing the wearable diagnostic device based on received or obtained information related to the user's health one or more of glucose levels, hemoglobin levels, or blood pressure levels. These processes are further described in Figures 7-12.
参照图7、9和13,可穿戴式诊断装置可以接收应进行测试的指示(702、902、1302)。例如,可穿戴式诊断装置可以接收应进行葡萄糖测试(702)、血红蛋白测试(902)或胆固醇测试(1302)的指示。应进行测试的指示可以包括以下中的一项或多项:用户作出的进行测试的选择;以及一个或多个处理器根据预定时间作出的请求。例如,可穿戴式诊断装置可被编程以提供在某些时间或在某些时间段后的血压读数。然后可穿戴式诊断装置可以安排何时应向用户提供特定读数,如血压读数的日期和时间,并且可以在预定时间开始确定血压和氧饱和度水平的方法。7, 9 and 13, the wearable diagnostic device may receive an indication that a test should be performed (702, 902, 1302). For example, the wearable diagnostic device may receive an indication that a glucose test (702), a hemoglobin test (902), or a cholesterol test (1302) should be performed. The indication that a test should be performed may include one or more of: a user's selection to perform the test; and a request by one or more processors based on a predetermined time. For example, a wearable diagnostic device can be programmed to provide blood pressure readings at certain times or after certain periods of time. The wearable diagnostic device can then schedule when a specific reading should be provided to the user, such as the date and time of a blood pressure reading, and can begin the method of determining blood pressure and oxygen saturation levels at a predetermined time.
在接收到应进行测试的指示(702、902、1302)之后,可穿戴式诊断装置的一个或多个处理器可以确定用于测试的传感器类型并激活所确定的传感器类型,其在葡萄糖或血红蛋白测试的情况下,可以包括一个或多个IR/光/激光传感器(704、904)。在胆固醇测试的情况下,激活的传感器可以包括IR/光/激光传感器、阻抗传感器和电磁传感器中的一种或多种。激活传感器可以包括以下操作,包括但不限于向传感器提供增加的功率、对传感器进行预热以发射或接收信号(如IR信号)或者配置或校准传感器。After receiving an indication that a test should be performed (702, 902, 1302), the one or more processors of the wearable diagnostic device may determine the type of sensor for testing and activate the determined sensor type, which is in glucose or hemoglobin In the case of testing, one or more IR/light/laser sensors (704, 904) may be included. In the case of cholesterol testing, the activated sensors may include one or more of IR/light/laser sensors, impedance sensors, and electromagnetic sensors. Activating the sensor may include operations including, but not limited to, providing increased power to the sensor, preheating the sensor to transmit or receive signals (eg, IR signals), or configuring or calibrating the sensor.
激活的一个或多个传感器可以获得表征用户的测量结果(706、906、1306)。例如,一个或多个IR/光/激光传感器可以分别被配置为发射红外信号或脉冲信号持续短的时间段,例如30秒,并检测发射的信号从用户皮肤的反射。在一些情况下,使用阻抗传感器的反射测量和电流测量可以迭代获得,或者可以在不同的环境,如不同的脉冲功率或磁场下获得。例如,对于胆固醇测量,可以在不施加磁场的情况下获得第一电流或红外信号测量结果,并且可以在产生各种低功率强度的磁场一段时间(例如10秒)后,进行一项或多项其他电流或红外测量。The activated sensor or sensors may obtain measurements that characterize the user (706, 906, 1306). For example, one or more IR/light/laser sensors, respectively, may be configured to emit an infrared signal or a pulsed signal for a short period of time, eg, 30 seconds, and detect the reflection of the emitted signal from the user's skin. In some cases, reflection measurements and current measurements using impedance sensors can be obtained iteratively, or can be obtained under different environments, such as different pulsed powers or magnetic fields. For example, for cholesterol measurements, a first current or infrared signal measurement can be obtained without the application of a magnetic field, and one or more of the measurements can be made after generating magnetic fields of various low power strengths for a period of time (eg, 10 seconds) Other current or infrared measurements.
在葡萄糖和血红蛋白测试的情况下,处理测得的检测到的信号,并且基于原始数据值选择特定路径(708、908)。特别地,每个检测到的信号都包括吸收光谱数据,可以使用模数转换器(ADC)将其转换为原始数字数据。处理可以任选地包括另外的处理操作,如降频转换、滤波、卷积、混合以及任何其他合适的信号处理操作。In the case of glucose and hemoglobin tests, the measured detected signals are processed and a particular path is selected based on the raw data values (708, 908). In particular, each detected signal includes absorption spectral data, which can be converted to raw digital data using an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). Processing may optionally include additional processing operations such as down-conversion, filtering, convolution, mixing, and any other suitable signal processing operations.
对应于接收自用户皮肤的信号的原始数字数据被用作选择特定路径以及相应的预测值和斜率回归值的基础(710、910)。例如,当进行葡萄糖测试时,如表I所示的示例性映射可以用于选择特定路径以及相应的预测值和斜率回归值。如果原始值大于或等于500且小于或等于700,则选择路径A以及相应的917的葡萄糖(G)预测值和0.838的G斜率回归值。如果原始值大于或等于701且小于或等于850,则选择路径B以及相应的919的G预测值和0.838的G斜率回归值。如果原始值大于或等于851且小于或等于950,则选择路径C以及相应的1001的G预测值和0.838的G斜率回归值。如果原始值大于或等于951且小于或等于1100,则选择路径D以及相应的1004的G预测值和0.838的G斜率回归值。如果原始值大于或等于1101,则选择路径E以及相应的981的G预测值和0.838的G斜率回归值。Raw digital data corresponding to signals received from the user's skin is used as a basis for selecting a particular path and corresponding predicted and slope regression values (710, 910). For example, when performing a glucose test, the exemplary mapping shown in Table 1 can be used to select a particular path and corresponding predicted and slope regression values. If the raw value is greater than or equal to 500 and less than or equal to 700, then Path A is selected with a corresponding glucose (G) predicted value of 917 and a G slope regression value of 0.838. If the raw value is greater than or equal to 701 and less than or equal to 850, then path B is selected with a corresponding G predicted value of 919 and a G slope regression value of 0.838. If the raw value is greater than or equal to 851 and less than or equal to 950, then path C is selected with a corresponding G predicted value of 1001 and a G slope regression value of 0.838. If the raw value is greater than or equal to 951 and less than or equal to 1100, then path D is chosen with the corresponding G predicted value of 1004 and G slope regression value of 0.838. If the raw value is greater than or equal to 1101, then path E is chosen with a corresponding G predicted value of 981 and a G slope regression value of 0.838.
表ITable I
然后,可以将所获得的预测值和斜率回归值用于确定用户的葡萄糖水平(712)。为了确定葡萄糖水平,可穿戴式诊断装置可以将概化理论和G斜率回归应用于原始数据集,并使用如下所示的[等式1]确定指示葡萄糖水平的值。The obtained predicted value and slope regression value can then be used to determine the user's glucose level (712). To determine glucose levels, the wearable diagnostic device can apply generalization theory and G-slope regression to the raw data set and determine a value indicative of glucose levels using [Equation 1] as shown below.
葡萄糖值=预测值(G-临床取样回归)-(G回归斜率)*(原始数据) [等式1]Glucose value = predicted value (G - clinical sampling regression) - (G regression slope) * (raw data) [Equation 1]
然后可以通过各种合适的方法输出所确定的葡萄糖值(714)。例如,所确定的葡萄糖值可以输出在可穿戴式诊断装置的显示器上或通过可穿戴式诊断装置的扬声器输出。The determined glucose value may then be output by various suitable methods (714). For example, the determined glucose value can be output on a display of the wearable diagnostic device or through a speaker of the wearable diagnostic device.
当进行血红蛋白测试时,如表II所示的示例性可以用于选择特定路径以及相应的预测值和斜率回归值。如果原始值等于或大于500且小于或等于700,则选择路径A以及相应的31.5的血红蛋白(Hb)预测值和0.114的Hb斜率回归值。如果原始值等于或大于701且小于或等于850,则选择路径B以及相应的67的Hb预测值和0.114的Hb斜率回归值。如果原始值等于或大于851且小于或等于950,则选择路径C以及相应的81的Hb预测值和0.114的Hb斜率回归值。如果原始值等于或大于951且小于或等于1100,则选择路径D以及相应的98的Hb预测值和0.114的Hb斜率回归值。如果原始值大于或等于1101,则选择路径E以及相应的100.5的Hb预测值和0.114的Hb斜率回归值。When performing a hemoglobin test, the examples shown in Table II can be used to select a specific path and corresponding predicted and slope regression values. If the raw value was equal to or greater than 500 and less than or equal to 700, Path A was chosen with a corresponding predicted value of hemoglobin (Hb) of 31.5 and a regression value of the slope of Hb of 0.114. If the raw value is equal to or greater than 701 and less than or equal to 850, then path B is chosen with the corresponding Hb predicted value of 67 and Hb slope regression value of 0.114. If the raw value is equal to or greater than 851 and less than or equal to 950, then path C is chosen with the corresponding Hb predicted value of 81 and Hb slope regression value of 0.114. If the raw value is equal to or greater than 951 and less than or equal to 1100, then path D is chosen with the corresponding Hb predicted value of 98 and Hb slope regression value of 0.114. If the raw value is greater than or equal to 1101, then path E is chosen with a corresponding Hb predicted value of 100.5 and a Hb slope regression value of 0.114.
表IITable II
然后,可以将所获得的预测值和斜率回归值用于确定用户的血红蛋白水平(912)。为了确定血红蛋白水平,可穿戴式诊断装置可以将Hb斜率回归应用于原始数据集,并使用如下所示的[等式2]确定指示血红蛋白水平的值。The obtained predicted value and slope regression value can then be used to determine the user's hemoglobin level (912). To determine the hemoglobin level, the wearable diagnostic device can apply Hb slope regression to the raw data set and use [Equation 2] as shown below to determine a value indicative of the hemoglobin level.
Hb值=((Hb回归斜率)*(原始数据))-预测值(Hb-临床取样回归) [等式2]Hb value = ((Hb regression slope) * (raw data)) - predicted value (Hb - clinical sampling regression) [Equation 2]
然后可以通过各种合适的方法输出所确定的血红蛋白值(914)。例如,可以将所确定的血红蛋白值输出在可穿戴式诊断装置的显示器上,或者通过可穿戴式诊断装置的扬声器输出。The determined hemoglobin value can then be output by various suitable methods (914). For example, the determined hemoglobin value may be output on a display of the wearable diagnostic device or through a speaker of the wearable diagnostic device.
对于在葡萄糖或血红蛋白测试中小于500的原始数据值,可穿戴式诊断装置可以确定该值是错误的,并开始另外的尝试以通过一个或多个IR/光/激光传感器获得原始数据值。如果在三次尝试后,不能获得大于500的值,则可穿戴式诊断装置可以输出出错信息,指示用户当前不能进行葡萄糖或血红蛋白测试。For a raw data value less than 500 in a glucose or hemoglobin test, the wearable diagnostic device can determine that the value is wrong and initiate another attempt to obtain the raw data value via one or more IR/light/laser sensors. If after three attempts a value greater than 500 cannot be obtained, the wearable diagnostic device may output an error message indicating that the user is currently unable to perform a glucose or hemoglobin test.
当进行胆固醇测试以确定与穿戴可穿戴式诊断装置的用户相关的胆固醇水平(例如HDL、LDL、甘油三酸酯分子)时,用户左手腕的下部暴露于自IR/光/激光传感器发射的红外信号。用户皮肤的该区域也可以暴露于磁场中一段短的时间,例如10或30秒,此后,除了胆固醇分子以外,血液颗粒根据电磁的正负极自行排列。可以在施加磁场之前和之后获得指示红外吸收光谱的数据(1306),并且可以随后处理所获得的数据(1308)。所获得数据的处理可以包括使用模数转换器(ADC)将数据转换为数字信号,以及计算施加磁场之前和之后吸收光谱值之间的差以产生原始值。When a cholesterol test is performed to determine cholesterol levels (eg, HDL, LDL, triglyceride molecules) associated with the user wearing the wearable diagnostic device, the lower portion of the user's left wrist is exposed to infrared emission from the IR/light/laser sensor Signal. This area of the user's skin can also be exposed to the magnetic field for a short period of time, such as 10 or 30 seconds, after which the blood particles, with the exception of cholesterol molecules, align themselves according to the electromagnetic positive and negative polarity. Data indicative of the infrared absorption spectrum can be obtained before and after the magnetic field is applied (1306), and the obtained data can be subsequently processed (1308). Processing of the acquired data may include converting the data to a digital signal using an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), and calculating the difference between the absorption spectrum values before and after the application of the magnetic field to produce the raw values.
接下来,从数据库获得预测的胆固醇水平值(1310)。数据库可以包括胆固醇水平到原始值的映射,并且可以根据人口统计学类别进行组织。可以基于如下所述的对多个人类对象的测试来生成数据库。Next, the predicted cholesterol level value is obtained from the database (1310). The database can include a mapping of cholesterol levels to raw values, and can be organized according to demographic categories. The database can be generated based on tests on multiple human subjects as described below.
最初,可以记录对象的人口统计学特征。人口统计学特征可以包括关于对象的各种类型的描述性信息,如对象的年龄、性别、种族、肤色、婚姻状况和/或医疗状况。例如,对象可具有如下人口统计学特征:48岁、白人、丧偶、患有皮肤癌。对于每名对象,可以使用各种合适的方法进行侵入性胆固醇测试,并且可以将测试结果添加到对象特征中。Initially, the demographic characteristics of the subject can be recorded. Demographic characteristics may include various types of descriptive information about the subject, such as the subject's age, gender, race, color, marital status, and/or medical condition. For example, a subject may have the following demographic characteristics: 48 years old, white, widowed, suffering from skin cancer. For each subject, an invasive cholesterol test can be performed using various suitable methods, and the test results can be added to the subject characteristics.
接下来,可以分别使用如上所述的电阻传感器和红外线传感器来获得对象的电流和红外信号测量结果。可以在施加磁场之前和施加磁场一定时间段之后进行电流和红外线信号的测量。可以计算所测量的信号的差值并将其保存为原始值。将原始值映射到从侵入性胆固醇测试获得的胆固醇水平,并存储在对象特征中。Next, the object's current and infrared signal measurements can be obtained using the resistive sensor and infrared sensor, respectively, as described above. Measurements of current and infrared signals can be made before and after the application of the magnetic field for a certain period of time. Differences in the measured signals can be calculated and saved as raw values. Raw values were mapped to cholesterol levels obtained from invasive cholesterol tests and stored in subject characteristics.
可能要测试数百和数千名对象,以便可以使用大样本量的对象来生成根据一个或多个人口统计学类别(例如性别、种族、年龄等)将原始值映射到胆固醇水平的数据库。在一些实施方式中,可以从测试中提取统计数据,以便可以确定每个人口统计学类别的胆固醇水平和原始值的平均值、中值和众数值。Hundreds and thousands of subjects may be tested so that a large sample size of subjects can be used to generate a database that maps raw values to cholesterol levels according to one or more demographic categories (eg, gender, race, age, etc.). In some embodiments, statistical data can be extracted from the test so that the mean, median, and mode values of cholesterol levels and raw values for each demographic category can be determined.
通常,可以形成各种类型的人口统计学类别。例如,在一些情况下,人口统计学类别可能会受到年龄,例如40多岁人群的年龄的限制。在一些情况下,人口统计学类别可以包括多项人口统计学特征,如年龄和种族,或年龄、种族和性别。因此,数据库可以包括映射表,其基于与特定人口统计学类别相关的原始值来映射可能的胆固醇水平。这里要注意的是,可以以匿名方式产生数据库,从而不会泄露或知道对象的身份。In general, various types of demographic categories can be formed. For example, in some cases demographic categories may be restricted by age, such as the age of people in their 40s. In some cases, a demographic category may include multiple demographic characteristics, such as age and ethnicity, or age, ethnicity, and gender. Thus, the database may include a mapping table that maps possible cholesterol levels based on raw values associated with particular demographic categories. It is important to note here that the database can be generated anonymously so that the identity of the object is not revealed or known.
返回参照图13,基于在操作1308中获得的原始值从数据库获得预测的胆固醇水平值(1310)。特别地,通过参考数据库中的映射表获得了映射到在操作1308中获得的原始值和穿戴可穿戴式诊断装置的用户的人口统计学特征的胆固醇水平。Referring back to Figure 13, predicted cholesterol level values are obtained from the database based on the raw values obtained in operation 1308 (1310). In particular, cholesterol levels mapped to the raw values obtained in
接下来,可以将预测的胆固醇水平值确定为穿戴可穿戴式诊断装置的用户的可能的胆固醇水平(1312)。在一些实施方式中,可以将预测的胆固醇水平值与先前获得的用户的胆固醇水平进行比较。如果预测的用户的胆固醇水平和最后获得的用户的胆固醇水平之间的差大于阈值,例如3%,则可穿戴式诊断装置可以重复操作1302至1310以获得新的预测的胆固醇水平。这样的迭代可以继续直到预测的胆固醇水平值在最后获得的用户的胆固醇水平的阈值差之内。在一些情况下,如果执行三次迭代而没有满足阈值差,则可以将在第三次迭代获得的预测的胆固醇水平值确定为穿戴可穿戴式诊断装置的用户的可能的胆固醇水平。然后可以通过可穿戴式诊断装置的显示器102来显示确定的用户的可能胆固醇水平。Next, the predicted cholesterol level value may be determined as a likely cholesterol level for the user wearing the wearable diagnostic device (1312). In some embodiments, the predicted cholesterol level value may be compared to previously obtained cholesterol levels of the user. If the difference between the predicted user's cholesterol level and the last obtained user's cholesterol level is greater than a threshold, eg, 3%, the wearable diagnostic device may repeat
在上述示例性实施方式中,预测值被用于确定葡萄糖、血红蛋白或胆固醇水平。可以使用各种不同的方法并基于几种因素来确定预测值。上文描述了获得胆固醇水平的预测值的方法。参照图8和10进一步描述了获得葡萄糖和血红蛋白水平的预测值的方法。In the above-described exemplary embodiments, predicted values are used to determine glucose, hemoglobin or cholesterol levels.

The cLDG may be determined based in part on one or more user characteristics, such as the user's demographic group, the user's age, and other personal characteristics of the user. For example, if the raw glucose values described above are associated with a particular route, such as route A, or if the user characteristics are indicative of a particular demographic origin or characteristic of the user, the cLDG value may be correlated with the user's raw glucose value or a particular demographic The cLDG value is determined in a manner corresponding to the source or characteristic. In some implementations, if the user has agreed to provide this personal information, the cLDG may be a matrix of values representing various characteristics of the user, eg, age, diet, gender.
在获得cCIG和cLDG之后,可穿戴式诊断装置可以基于cCIG和cLDG确定临床数据集范围(810)。所确定的临床数据集范围被映射到用户的葡萄糖水平的葡萄糖预测值(812)。可以用确定的临床数据集范围查询存储各种临床数据集范围和葡萄糖预测值的数据库,并且可以返回映射到确定的临床数据集范围的葡萄糖预测值。然后可以提供葡萄糖预测值,并将其用于确定用户的葡萄糖水平(814)。After obtaining the cCIG and cLDG, the wearable diagnostic device may determine the clinical dataset extent based on the cCIG and cLDG (810). The determined clinical dataset range is mapped to a glucose predicted value for the user's glucose level (812). A database storing various clinical dataset ranges and glucose predicted values can be queried with the determined clinical dataset ranges, and glucose predicted values mapped to the determined clinical dataset ranges can be returned. The predicted glucose value can then be provided and used to determine the user's glucose level (814).
参照图10,为了获得用户血红蛋白水平的预测值,可穿戴式诊断装置可以获得用户特征信息(1002)。用户特征信息可以包括以下中的一项或多项:用户的居住位置、用户的医生、用户的药剂师、用户的医疗记录持有者、用户与一个或多个群组的人口统计学关联、用户的饮食、用户拥有的多个孩子的指示、用户的医疗史、用户的一项或多项过去或当前的医疗状况(例如,过敏、手术、遗传状况)、用户的一项或多项健康问题以及用户有兴趣获得详细信息的一项或多项血液含量水平。10, in order to obtain a predicted value of the user's hemoglobin level, the wearable diagnostic device may obtain user characteristic information (1002).

使用来自用户特征的信息,可穿戴式诊断装置可以确定用户的血红蛋白的临床关联信息值(cCIHb)(1004)。可以使用从用户特征获得的临床信息(如用户的医疗史)确定cCIHb,所述用户的医疗史包括诸如医生报告、过去或当前医疗状况、临床诊断等数据。在一些实施方式中,如果用户已同意提供该个人信息,则cCIHb可以是代表用户医疗史的各个方面的值的矩阵。Using information from the user's characteristics, the wearable diagnostic device can determine a clinically relevant information value (cCIHb) for the user's hemoglobin (1004). The cCIHb may be determined using clinical information obtained from user characteristics, such as the user's medical history, which includes data such as physician reports, past or current medical conditions, clinical diagnoses, and the like. In some implementations, if the user has agreed to provide this personal information, the cCIHb may be a matrix of values representing various aspects of the user's medical history.
接下来,可穿戴式诊断装置可以通过获得用户的氧饱和度和温度数据确定用户的血红蛋白的临床关联人口统计学值(cLDHb)(1006)。在一些实施方式中,cLDHb可以是代表用户的可能的氧饱和度和温度的值的矩阵。通常,各种合适的方法可用于获得用户的氧饱和度和温度。在一些实施方式中,可以按本说明书中参照图11所述获得氧饱和度,并且可以使用可穿戴式诊断装置中包括的温度传感器获得温度。在一些实施方式中,可以部分地基于通过用户特征提供的信息,如一项或多项用户特征,如用户的人口统计学群组、用户的年龄和用户的其他个人特征确定cLDHb。Next, the wearable diagnostic device may determine a clinically relevant demographic value (cLDHb) of the user's hemoglobin by obtaining the user's oxygen saturation and temperature data (1006). In some embodiments, cLDHb may be a matrix of values representing the user's possible oxygen saturation and temperature. In general, various suitable methods are available for obtaining the oxygen saturation and temperature of the user. In some embodiments, oxygen saturation may be obtained as described in this specification with reference to FIG. 11 , and temperature may be obtained using a temperature sensor included in the wearable diagnostic device. In some embodiments, cLDHb may be determined based in part on information provided by user characteristics, such as one or more user characteristics, such as the user's demographic group, the user's age, and other personal characteristics of the user.
在获得cCIHb和cLDHb之后,可穿戴式诊断装置可以基于cCIHb和cLDHb确定临床数据集范围(1010)。可以将确定的临床数据集范围映射到用户血红蛋白水平的血红蛋白预测值(1012)。可以用确定的临床数据集范围查询存储各种临床数据集范围和血红蛋白预测值的数据库,并且可以返回映射到确定的临床数据集范围的血红蛋白预测值。然后可以提供血红蛋白预测值,并将其用于确定用户的血红蛋白水平(1014)。After obtaining the cCIHb and cLDHb, the wearable diagnostic device can determine the clinical dataset range based on the cCIHb and cLDHb (1010). The determined clinical dataset range can be mapped to a hemoglobin predicted value for the user's hemoglobin level (1012). A database storing various clinical dataset ranges and hemoglobin predicted values can be queried with the determined clinical dataset ranges, and hemoglobin predicted values mapped to the determined clinical dataset ranges can be returned. A predicted hemoglobin value can then be provided and used to determine the user's hemoglobin level (1014).
除利用血压和温度数据之外,还通过利用预测值来确定用户的葡萄糖和血红蛋白水平,所确定的用户的葡萄糖和血红蛋白水平相对于不利用预测值确定葡萄糖和血红蛋白水平的方法具有高得多的精确度。预测值包括用户的临床和人口统计学信息,并且因此可以使计算更准确,所述计算将可能会影响葡萄糖或血红蛋白水平的诸如肤色和年龄的参数考虑在内。预测值还可以用于将预测值与用户对某些疾病的易感性相关联,并且用户可以因此采取预防步骤以使获取这些疾病的可能性最小化,并提高用户的健康状况和预期寿命。此外,可以根据需要通过单个装置来进行这些多项测试并且可以从测试中获得结果,从而为用户提供高度的便利性。By utilizing the predicted values in addition to the blood pressure and temperature data to determine the user's glucose and hemoglobin levels, the user's glucose and hemoglobin levels are determined to be much higher relative to methods that do not utilize the predicted values to determine the glucose and hemoglobin levels. Accuracy. The predicted value includes the user's clinical and demographic information, and thus can make calculations more accurate that take into account parameters such as skin color and age that may affect glucose or hemoglobin levels. The predicted value can also be used to correlate the predicted value with the user's susceptibility to certain diseases, and the user can thus take preventive steps to minimize the likelihood of acquiring these diseases and improve the user's health status and life expectancy. Furthermore, these multiple tests can be performed as required by a single device and the results can be obtained from the tests, thereby providing a high degree of convenience to the user.
除了获得用户的葡萄糖和血红蛋白水平之外,可穿戴式诊断装置还可以确定用户的血压和氧饱和度水平。确定用户的血压和氧饱和度水平的示例性方法的流程图描绘在图11中。最初,可穿戴式诊断装置可以接收应进行血压测定的指示(1102)。应进行血压测定的指示可以包括以下的一项或多项:用户作出的提供血压读数的选择以及一个或多个处理器根据预定时间作出的请求。例如,可穿戴式诊断装置可被编程以提供在某些时间或在某些时间段后的血压读数。然后可穿戴式诊断装置可以安排何时应向用户提供血压读数的日期和时间,并且可以在预定时间开始确定血压和氧饱和度水平的方法。In addition to obtaining the user's glucose and hemoglobin levels, the wearable diagnostic device can also determine the user's blood pressure and oxygen saturation levels. A flowchart of an exemplary method of determining a user's blood pressure and oxygen saturation levels is depicted in FIG. 11 . Initially, the wearable diagnostic device may receive an indication that a blood pressure measurement should be performed (1102). The indication that a blood pressure measurement should be taken may include one or more of a selection by the user to provide a blood pressure reading and a request by one or more processors based on a predetermined time. For example, a wearable diagnostic device can be programmed to provide blood pressure readings at certain times or after certain periods of time. The wearable diagnostic device can then schedule a date and time when a blood pressure reading should be provided to the user, and the method of determining blood pressure and oxygen saturation levels can begin at a predetermined time.
在接收到应进行血压测定的指示(1102)后,可穿戴式诊断装置可以确定用于血压测试的传感器类型,并激活所确定的传感器类型,其在血压测试的情况下,可以包括压电振动传感器和IR/光/激光传感器(1104)。激活传感器可以包括几项操作,包括但不限于向传感器提供增加的功率以及配置或校准传感器。Upon receiving the indication (1102) that a blood pressure measurement should be performed, the wearable diagnostic device may determine the type of sensor used for the blood pressure test, and activate the determined sensor type, which in the case of the blood pressure test, may include piezoelectric vibration Sensors and IR/Light/Laser Sensors (1104). Activating a sensor may include several operations including, but not limited to, providing increased power to the sensor and configuring or calibrating the sensor.
激活的压电振动传感器和IR/光/激光传感器可以获得用户测量结果(1106)。例如,压电振动传感器被配置为感测或检测用户手的运动、位置、接近度、速度和方向,并产生与检测到的触摸、振动和冲击运动中的一项或多项相对应的电信号。IR/光/激光传感器被配置为发射红外信号、检测发射的红外信号从用户皮肤的反射。在一些实施方式中,可以使用前置放大器来放大通过压电振动传感器获得的弱脉冲信号。Activated piezoelectric vibration sensors and IR/light/laser sensors may obtain user measurements (1106). For example, piezoelectric vibration sensors are configured to sense or detect movement, position, proximity, speed, and direction of a user's hand and generate electrical voltages corresponding to one or more of detected touch, vibration, and shock movements Signal. The IR/light/laser sensor is configured to emit an infrared signal and detect the reflection of the emitted infrared signal from the user's skin. In some embodiments, a preamplifier can be used to amplify the weak pulse signal obtained by the piezoelectric vibration sensor.
可以例如通过进行模数转换(ADC)和滤波操作来处理通过压电振动传感器和IR/光/激光传感器检测到的信号,以产生红外目标检测(IRTD)值和压电振动(PV)值(1108)。通常,可以对通过压电振动传感器和IR/光/激光传感器检测到的信号进行各种信号处理操作。在一些实施方式中,操作1104-1108可以重复多次,并且可以确定多个IRTD和PV值的平均值。Signals detected by piezoelectric vibration sensors and IR/light/laser sensors can be processed, for example, by performing analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) and filtering operations to generate infrared target detection (IRTD) values and piezoelectric vibration (PV) values ( 1108). In general, various signal processing operations can be performed on signals detected by piezoelectric vibration sensors and IR/light/laser sensors. In some embodiments, operations 1104-1108 may be repeated multiple times, and an average of multiple IRTD and PV values may be determined.
处理还可以包括将确定的IRTD值和PV值与预测的IRTD值和PV值进行比较。比较产生两组血压值。将两组血压值中的每组进行平均以分别产生收缩压值和舒张压值(1112)。使用如下所示的[等式3],可以将收缩压值和舒张压值用于确定平均动脉压(MAP)。Processing may also include comparing the determined IRTD and PV values to predicted IRTD and PV values. The comparison yields two sets of blood pressure values. Each of the two sets of blood pressure values is averaged to generate systolic and diastolic blood pressure values, respectively (1112). Using [Equation 3] shown below, systolic and diastolic blood pressure values can be used to determine mean arterial pressure (MAP).
MAP=舒张压+(1/3)(收缩压–舒张压) [等式3]MAP = diastolic blood pressure + (1/3) (systolic blood pressure – diastolic blood pressure) [equation 3]
下文参照图12解释了用于血压测量的预测值的生成。在一些实施方式中,也可以使用[等式4]确定用户血液的氧饱和度水平(1110)。The generation of predicted values for blood pressure measurement is explained below with reference to FIG. 12 . In some embodiments, [Equation 4] may also be used to determine the oxygen saturation level of the user's blood (1110).
氧饱和度水平=((CHbO2)/(CHbO2+CHb))*100 [等式4]Oxygen Saturation Level = (( CHbO2 )/( CHbO2 + CHb ))*100 [Equation 4]
在[等式4]中,CHbO2等于氧化的血红蛋白的浓度,且CHb等于脱氧的血红蛋白的浓度。可以通过使用红外线传感器获得CHb02和CHb的值。In [Equation 4], CHbO2 is equal to the concentration of oxidized hemoglobin , and CHb is equal to the concentration of deoxygenated hemoglobin. The values of CHbO2 and CHb can be obtained by using an infrared sensor.
在操作1110和1112之后,输出血压和氧饱和度值(1114)。例如,在一些实施方式中,通过显示器显示血压和氧饱和度值。在一些实施方式中,通过扬声器输出血压和氧饱和度值。在一些实施方式中,可以使用信息,如邮件、SMS或MMS将血压和氧饱和度值传送至另一电子装置。信息可以在没有任何用户输入的情况下自动生成和填充。可以提示用户确认是否应将血压和氧饱和度值的信息传输至其它电子装置。After
在上述示例性实施方式中,预测值被用于确定用户的血压。可以使用各种不同的方法并基于几种因素确定预测值。参照图12,为了获得用户血压的预测值,可穿戴式诊断装置可以获得用户特征信息(1202),如在操作802和1002中所述的。可穿戴式诊断装置可以从用户特征获得用户的临床和人口统计学信息。In the above-described exemplary embodiment, the predicted value is used to determine the user's blood pressure. Predictive values can be determined using a variety of different methods and based on several factors. 12 , in order to obtain the predicted value of the user's blood pressure, the wearable diagnostic device may obtain user characteristic information ( 1202 ), as described in
使用来自用户特征的信息,可穿戴式诊断装置可以确定用户的血压临床关联信息值(cCIBP)并获得EKG数据(1204)。可以使用从用户特征获得的临床信息(用户的医疗史)确定cCIBP,所述用户的医疗史包括诸如医生的报告、过去或当前的医疗状况、临床诊断等的数据。可以从各种合适的来源,诸如例如用户的医疗史获得EKG数据。Using information from the user's characteristics, the wearable diagnostic device may determine the user's blood pressure clinically correlated information value (cCIBP) and obtain EKG data (1204). The cCIBP can be determined using clinical information obtained from user characteristics (the user's medical history), which includes data such as doctor's reports, past or current medical conditions, clinical diagnoses, and the like. EKG data may be obtained from various suitable sources, such as, for example, the user's medical history.
接下来,处理EKG数据以确定峰值和峰值,特别是R波之间的时间差(1206)。可穿戴式诊断装置还可以确定用户的血压的临床关联人口统计学值(cLDBP)(1206)。在一些实施方式中,可穿戴式诊断装置中的一个或多个处理器可以执行一个或多个程序和算法,其检测用户的EKG中的峰值和检测到的峰值之间的时间差。在一些实施方式中,可以部分地基于一项或多项用户特征如用户的人口统计学群组、用户的年龄和用户的其他个人特征确定cLDBP。在一些实施方式中,如果用户已同意提供该个人信息,则cLDBP可以是代表用户的各种特征,例如年龄、饮食、性别的值的矩阵。Next, the EKG data is processed to determine the time difference between peaks and peaks, particularly R waves (1206). The wearable diagnostic device may also determine a clinically relevant demographic value (cLDBP) of the user's blood pressure (1206). In some embodiments, one or more processors in the wearable diagnostic device may execute one or more programs and algorithms that detect a peak in the user's EKG and the time difference between the detected peak. In some embodiments, the cLDBP may be determined based in part on one or more user characteristics, such as the user's demographic group, the user's age, and other personal characteristics of the user. In some embodiments, if the user has agreed to provide this personal information, the cLDBP may be a matrix of values representing various characteristics of the user, such as age, diet, gender.
在获得cCIBP和cLDBP之后,可穿戴式诊断装置可以基于cCIBP和cLDBP确定临床数据集范围(1208)。所确定的临床数据集范围被映射到用户的葡萄糖水平的血压预测值(1210)。可以用确定的临床数据集范围查询存储各种临床数据集范围和血压预测值的数据库,并且可以返回映射到所确定的临床数据集范围的血压预测值。然后可以提供血压预测值,并将其用于确定用户的血压水平(1212)。After obtaining the cCIBP and cLDBP, the wearable diagnostic device may determine the clinical dataset extent based on the cCIBP and cLDBP (1208). The determined clinical dataset ranges are mapped to blood pressure predictions for the user's glucose level (1210). A database storing various clinical data set ranges and blood pressure predicted values can be queried with the determined clinical data set ranges, and blood pressure predicted values mapped to the determined clinical data set ranges can be returned. Blood pressure predictions may then be provided and used to determine the user's blood pressure level (1212).
在一些实施方式中,可穿戴式诊断装置可以执行获得穿戴可穿戴式诊断装置的用户的EKG和心率水平的过程。In some embodiments, the wearable diagnostic device may perform a process of obtaining the EKG and heart rate levels of the user wearing the wearable diagnostic device.
当将可穿戴式诊断装置固定在用户的左臂上时,第一心脏电极可以设置在可穿戴式诊断装置的底面之上或之内,并以可与用户左手腕的上侧接触。第二心脏电极被设置在可穿戴式诊断装置的上表面之上或之内,而不接触用户左臂上的皮肤。第一心脏电极可以从用户左臂上的手腕上部获取信号,并且第二心脏电极可以利用放在用户胸部上的第二心脏电极获取两种信号。所获取的信号可以包括心脏电势波形,如在心脏收缩期间产生的电压。将从这三种信号获得的数据转换为诱因(Provocation)、品质(Quality)、放射情况、严重程度、时间(PQRST)波。PQRST波可用于产生艾因托文氏三角(Einthoven's triangle)、EKG图,并计算另外的信息,如用户的心跳。在一些情况下,PQRST波可用于诊断心脏状况。When the wearable diagnostic device is fixed on the user's left arm, the first cardiac electrode may be disposed on or in the bottom surface of the wearable diagnostic device, and may be in contact with the upper side of the user's left wrist. The second cardiac electrode is disposed on or within the upper surface of the wearable diagnostic device without touching the skin on the user's left arm. The first cardiac electrode may acquire signals from the upper wrist on the user's left arm, and the second cardiac electrode may acquire both signals using a second cardiac electrode placed on the user's chest. The acquired signals may include cardiac potential waveforms, such as the voltages generated during systole. The data obtained from these three signals are converted into Provocation, Quality, Radiation, Severity, Time (PQRST) waves. PQRST waves can be used to generate Einthoven's triangle, EKG maps, and to calculate additional information, such as the user's heartbeat. In some cases, PQRST complexes can be used to diagnose cardiac conditions.
在一些实施方式中,可穿戴式诊断装置可以执行用于获得与穿戴可穿戴式诊断装置的用户相关的体温的过程。在将可穿戴式诊断装置缠绕在用户手臂周围并与用户皮肤接触之后,可穿戴式诊断装置中的温度传感器将基于皮肤接触获得用户的温度。例如,温度传感器可以接触手腕,并且可以获得用户在特定的时间段内的体温数据。温度传感器将传感器数据提供给一个或多个处理器,其可以将接收的数据转换为华氏温标,并对在一个或多个时间段内采集的温度数据进行平均,以产生用户的可能体温。In some embodiments, the wearable diagnostic device may perform a process for obtaining a body temperature associated with a user wearing the wearable diagnostic device. After the wearable diagnostic device is wrapped around the user's arm and in contact with the user's skin, the temperature sensor in the wearable diagnostic device will obtain the user's temperature based on the skin contact. For example, a temperature sensor can touch the wrist and can obtain data on the user's body temperature over a specific period of time. The temperature sensor provides sensor data to one or more processors, which can convert the received data to a Fahrenheit temperature scale and average temperature data collected over one or more time periods to generate the user's likely body temperature.
在一些实施方式中,可穿戴式诊断装置可以执行用于获得与穿戴可穿戴式诊断装置的用户相关的手部振动的过程。一个或多个处理器可以使用计时器和加速度计或压电振动传感器执行操作,以获得手部振动测量结果。例如,在接收到用户有兴趣查看关于手部振动的指示后,处理器可以将计时器设置为特定时间段,例如60秒,并指示加速度计或压电振动传感器获得特定时间段的振动数据。加速度计或压电振动传感器可以感测特定时间段内用户的手部振动的次数和强度,并向处理器提供指示振动次数的数据。In some embodiments, the wearable diagnostic device may perform a process for obtaining hand vibrations associated with a user wearing the wearable diagnostic device. One or more processors may perform operations using a timer and an accelerometer or piezoelectric vibration sensor to obtain hand vibration measurements. For example, upon receiving an indication that the user is interested in viewing hand vibrations, the processor may set a timer for a specific time period, such as 60 seconds, and instruct the accelerometer or piezoelectric vibration sensor to obtain vibration data for the specific time period. An accelerometer or piezoelectric vibration sensor can sense the number and intensity of the user's hand vibrations over a specific period of time and provide data to the processor indicating the number of vibrations.
处理器可以接收指示振动次数的数据,并可以确定振动的频率。如果振动的频率为3-7赫兹(Hz),则该振动可归类为与帕金森氏震颤相关的振动。处理器还可以从加速度计或压电振动传感器获得振幅信息,以确定与帕金森氏震颤相关的任何振动的强度。指示振动的时间、强度和频率的数据可以存储在存储装置中的用户特征中,和/或可以经由显示器呈现给用户。The processor may receive data indicative of the number of vibrations and may determine the frequency of the vibrations. If the vibration has a frequency of 3-7 hertz (Hz), the vibration can be classified as a vibration associated with Parkinson's tremor. The processor may also obtain amplitude information from an accelerometer or piezoelectric vibration sensor to determine the intensity of any vibrations associated with Parkinson's tremor. Data indicative of the time, intensity and frequency of the vibrations may be stored in the user profile in the storage device and/or may be presented to the user via the display.
可以平行地、同时地或在不同的时间执行上述的获得关于用户的葡萄糖水平、血红蛋白水平、血压水平、EKG、心率水平、体温、手部振动和胆固醇水平的信息的过程。可穿戴式诊断装置具有足够的处理能力以在任何时间和响应于用户请求执行这些过程中的任一个。The above-described process of obtaining information about the user's glucose level, hemoglobin level, blood pressure level, EKG, heart rate level, body temperature, hand vibration, and cholesterol level may be performed in parallel, simultaneously, or at different times. The wearable diagnostic device has sufficient processing power to perform any of these procedures at any time and in response to user requests.
在一些实施方式中,可以顺序地或同时地运行多项诊断测试。例如,可以在血压测试之前或期间进行EKG测试。可以在血红蛋白测试之前或期间进行氧饱和度测试和体温测试。可以在葡萄糖测试之前或期间进行血压测试和体温测试。其他变化和组合是可能的。例如,如果用户具有某些病况的医疗史如患糖尿病,则可穿戴式诊断装置可以定期进行与用户病况最相关的测试,如葡萄糖诊断测试,并且可以在最相关的诊断测试之前、之后或期间进行其他测试,如血压测试、胆固醇测试或氧饱和度测试。In some embodiments, multiple diagnostic tests may be run sequentially or simultaneously. For example, an EKG test can be done before or during a blood pressure test. An oxygen saturation test and a temperature test can be done before or during the hemoglobin test. Blood pressure and temperature tests can be done before or during the glucose test. Other variations and combinations are possible. For example, if the user has a medical history of certain conditions, such as diabetes, the wearable diagnostic device may periodically perform the tests most relevant to the user's condition, such as the glucose diagnostic test, and may run before, after, or during the most relevant diagnostic test Take other tests, such as blood pressure tests, cholesterol tests, or oxygen saturation tests.
在一些实施方式中,尽管用户可以输入进行一种类型的诊断测试(例如葡萄糖测试)的请求,但可穿戴式诊断装置可以确定将与用户请求的诊断测试一起进行的一项或多项测试,例如血压测试。可以基于一个或多个标准来确定另外的测试,所述测试为诸如例如,由用户、默认设置、厂商设置、医生推荐通常选择的将同时、顺序或成对进行的。在一些实施方式中,可以基于用户的医疗史确定另外的测试。例如,如果用户患有糖尿病和高血压,则每当用户选择血压测试,可穿戴式诊断装置也可以进行葡萄糖测试。如果用户选择葡萄糖测试,则可穿戴式诊断装置也可以进行血压测试。In some embodiments, the wearable diagnostic device may determine one or more tests to be performed in conjunction with the user-requested diagnostic test, although the user may enter a request to perform one type of diagnostic test (eg, a glucose test), For example a blood pressure test. Additional tests may be determined based on one or more criteria, such as, for example, to be performed concurrently, sequentially, or in pairs as commonly selected by the user, default settings, manufacturer settings, physician recommendations. In some embodiments, additional tests may be determined based on the user's medical history. For example, if the user suffers from diabetes and high blood pressure, the wearable diagnostic device may also perform a glucose test whenever the user selects a blood pressure test. If the user chooses a glucose test, the wearable diagnostic device can also perform a blood pressure test.
可以将从执行一个或多个上述过程获得的结果储存在可穿戴式诊断装置中的存储器中,或者储存在与用户关联的数据库或云账户中。也可以通过显示器显示从执行一个或多个上述过程获得的结果。在一些实施方式中,如果确定的葡萄糖水平、血红蛋白水平、血压水平、EKG、心率水平、体温和手部振动中的一项或多项指示严重的医疗状况,则可穿戴式诊断装置可以输出视觉的、声音的或电子的警报。例如,如果例如,EKG包括一些异常心脏运动迹象或者体温超过102华氏度,则可穿戴式诊断装置可以产生声音输出,如声波,建议用户去看医生。Results obtained from performing one or more of the above-described procedures may be stored in memory in the wearable diagnostic device, or in a database or cloud account associated with the user. Results obtained from performing one or more of the above-described processes may also be displayed by a display. In some embodiments, the wearable diagnostic device may output a visual if one or more of the determined glucose level, hemoglobin level, blood pressure level, EKG, heart rate level, body temperature, and hand vibration is indicative of a serious medical condition audible or electronic alarms. For example, if, for example, the EKG includes some signs of abnormal heart motion or a body temperature exceeds 102 degrees Fahrenheit, the wearable diagnostic device can produce sound output, such as sound waves, to advise the user to see a doctor.
