Pulse rhythm01:30

Pulse rhythm

Pulse rhythm refers to the pattern of pulsations within specific intervals, offering valuable insights into the regularity or irregularity of the heart's beats as observed through the pattern of pulsation within specific intervals. A regular pulse exhibits a consistent heart rate with uniform waveforms and pulsation force, variations of which can be classified as normal, weak, or bounding.
Conversely, an irregular pulse pattern is termed dysrhythmia, stemming from disruptions in cardiac muscle...
Electrodes: Overview01:17

Electrodes: Overview

Electrochemical measurements are conducted in an electrochemical cell composed of various components that control and measure the current and potential. One fundamental component is electrodes, conductive materials that enable electron transfer reactions at their surfaces.
There are two main types of electrodes in electrochemical cells. The first type, known as the working or indicator electrode, has a potential that is sensitive to the analyte's concentration and reacts to changes in the...
Motor Unit Stimulation01:20

Motor Unit Stimulation

When the neuron of a motor unit fires an action potential, it triggers a series of events, leading to a twitch contraction in the muscle fibers. The process of excitation-contraction coupling is crucial in relaying the action potential to the muscle fibers.
The latent period of contraction marks the onset of excitation-contraction coupling, when the action potential propagates across the sarcolemma, preparing the muscle fibers for contraction. As the fibers enter the contraction phase, the...

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Traditional Chinese Medicine
  • Sensory Feedback Technology

Background:

  • Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) pulse diagnosis relies on subjective, in-person tactile assessment.
  • Current TCM pulse diagnosis is limited by spatial constraints, hindering remote consultations.
  • Objective pulse wave analysis does not fully capture the nuances of TCM diagnosis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a remote pulse diagnosis system overcoming spatial limitations.
  • To enable remote tactile sensation of a patient's pulse via electrotactile stimulation.
  • To establish the feasibility of reconstructing pulse sensations for remote TCM applications.

Main Methods:

  • A novel pulse reconstruction scheme using electrotactile stimulation principles.
  • Development of a system with electrical stimulation circuits and flexible fingertip electrodes.
  • Investigation of optimal electrical stimulation parameters (current, voltage, pulse width) for tactile sensation mimicry.
  • Utilization of wearable sensors to capture pulse signals and convert them into electrical parameters.

Main Results:

  • Optimal stimulation ranges determined: 1-6 mA current, 100 V voltage, 100-800 μs pulse width, 100 pulses/cycle.
  • Tactile sensations mimicked pressures between 0.17-1 N.
  • Successful reconstruction of pulse sensations through electrotactile stimulation.
  • Demonstrated feasibility of remote pulse feeling.

Conclusions:

  • Electrotactile stimulation offers a viable method for remote TCM pulse diagnosis.
  • The developed system overcomes the spatial limitations of traditional pulse diagnosis.
  • This technology provides a foundation for future remote healthcare solutions in TCM.
