Background technology
Apoplexy (apoplexy) is a kind of sudden cerebrovascular circulation disorder.Post-stroke causes the componental movement dysfunction of health usually.The patient of apoplexy is very easy to recurrence once more, finally causes general paralysis, even dead.The paralytic especially occupies the hemiplegic patient of significant proportion, has brought white elephant for family and society, helps hemiplegic patient to recover the basic exercise function, and returning to orthobiosis is to have important economy and social meaning.
Most of hemiplegic patient's functional rehabilitation is difficult to fully., can't come back to orthobiosis before the patient in the environment though but the part patient can the independent ambulation abnormal gait.The hemiplegic patient is compensated two kinds of main neural rehabilitation approaches of assisted movement ability: mechanical skeleton and functional electric stimulation.Machinery skeleton walk-aid equipment cost height and man-machine interaction is poor, maloperation simultaneously causes the damage of muscle easily, is difficult to train according to the own will of patient.(Functional Electrical Stimulation FES) by electricity irritation, promotes muscle to produce and shrinks the regular motor function of recovering limbs functional electric stimulation.
In FES clinical rehabilitation field, all there are problems in correlational study aspect physiology and the engineering both at home and abroad at numerous apoplectic hemiplegia patients.The development of FES mainly contains both direction: implanted and sticking type.Adopt the direct stimulus movement neuron of implanted electrode, thereby reach the motion of the corresponding muscle of accurate control, but owing to there is the big and low problem of patient's degree of admittance of wireless power technical difficulty, practical clinical and popularization have suitable difficulty.Adopt surface electrode percutaneous stimulation motor neuron, easy and patient's degree of the admittance height of clinical manipulation.Existing surperficial FES rehabilitation instrument all adopts the open loop electrical stimulus patterns, does not have feedback or single feedback.Because the steady gait of human body is finished with the synergy movement of complexity by a series of muscle, open cycle system or single feedback signal (as electromyographic signal, EEG signals, plantar pressure signal or three-dimensional position signal) are difficult to recover normal walking walking.Adopt brain electricity feedback control FES to exist signal extraction difficulty, signal quality low, problems such as poor anti jamming capability.
Moreover China hemiplegic patient's quantity is come manyly far beyond paralytic patient at present, and functional electric stimulation focuses mostly in the research of the functional electric stimulation walking device that uses for paralytic patient both at home and abroad, less attention hemiplegic patient's demand.The functional electric stimulation walking aid that paralytic patient and hemiplegic patient use all needs parts such as stimulation, sensation, feedback, control, but how to utilize the hemiplegic patient than the distinctive strong side limbs of paralytic patient, make the collaborative more or less freely of patient left and right sides limb activity, thereby walking research more flexibly is also fewer, more lacks the medical apparatus and instruments of this respect.
Summary of the invention
In view of this, the object of the present invention is to provide the autonomous instrument of a kind of hemiplegic patient based on the body image theory, this instrument is reference with the strong side limbs attitude information of patient, by image copying, the coordination exercise of control patient affected limb reaches the effect that walking of hemiplegic patient's balance and motor function are rebuild.
