Description
Pulsoximetrisches Messgerät: Pulse Oximetric Meter:
Die Erfindung betrifft ein pulsoximetrisches Messgerät mit einem Pulsoximeter-Sensor und einem Pulsoximeter-Modul zum Auswerten und Anzeigen der Signale des Sensors.The invention relates to a pulse oximetric measuring device with a pulse oximeter sensor and a pulse oximeter module for evaluating and displaying the signals of the sensor.
Die Erfassung und Überwachung von Vitalparametern bei neu- und frühgeborenen Patienten sowohl auf der Intensivstation als auch während des Transports stellt eine Basisanforde¬ rung im alltäglichen Klinikbetrieb dar. Daher gibt es auf dem Markt eine große Anzahl sowohl tragbarer als auch orts¬ fester Patientenmonitore, im speziellen sogenannte Pulsoxi- meter, mit Hilfe derer sich die SauerstoffSättigung und Herzrate des Patienten nicht-invasiv bestimmen lassen.The recording and monitoring of vital parameters in new and premature infants, both in the intensive care unit and during transport, represents a basic requirement in everyday clinical operation. Therefore, there are a large number of both portable and stationary patient monitors on the market special so-called pulse oximeters, with the aid of which the patient's oxygen saturation and heart rate can be determined non-invasively.
Im Umfeld von Diagnostik mit magnetischer Resonanz (MR-Re- sonanz) ist die Auswahl an verfügbaren Pulsoximetern be¬ grenzt. Ein Grund dafür ist, dass der störungsfreie Betrieb von elektronischen Geräten in direkter Umgebung von Kern¬ spintomographen aufgrund der starken elektromagnetischen Felder ohne besondere Maßnahmen nicht möglich ist. Die Ge¬ räte weisen daher oft ein schwerfälliges Handling auf, da überwiegend versucht wird, durch Einbringen von langen Ver- bindungsleitungen (elektrisch oder optisch) den Sensor auf der eine Seite patienterinah und auf der anderen Seite die elektronische Auswerte- und Anzeigeeinheit möglichst weit entfernt vom Tomographen zu positionieren.In the field of diagnostics with magnetic resonance (MR resonance), the choice of available pulse oximeters is limited. One reason for this is that the trouble-free operation of electronic devices in the immediate vicinity of nuclear magnetic resonance tomographs is not possible without special measures due to the strong electromagnetic fields. The devices therefore often have cumbersome handling since it is predominantly attempted to remove the sensor on one side near the patient and on the other side the electronic evaluation and display unit as far as possible by introducing long connecting lines (electrical or optical) from the tomograph.
Das Messprinzip in der Pulsoximetrie liegt in der wellen- längen-abhängigen optischen Perfusion der unter der Haut befindlichen Blutgefäße begründet. Die Leistungs- und Merk-
maisunterschiede bei den auf dem Markt angebotenen Pulsoxi- metern sind auf verschiedene Algorithmen bei der Signalver¬ arbeitung zurückzuführen und basieren auf einer großen Er¬ fahrung und Wissensbasis im Bereich der Pulsoximetrie. Da- her bieten einige Hersteller, neben eigenständigen Geräten, auch so genannte OEM-Module an, die gewissermaßen das Kern¬ stück der Messwerterfassung und -Verarbeitung darstellen und sich somit in hervorragender Weise zum Einbau in andere Medizingeräte eignen. Solche Geräte können aber nicht in der Nähe von Kernspintomographen verwendet werden, ohne dass die oben erwähnten langen Verbindungsleitungen verwen¬ det werden, damit der empfindliche Pulsoximetrie-Modul ge¬ nügend weit von den statischen Magnetfeldern und elektro¬ magnetischen Hochfrequenz-Messfeldern des Kernspintomogra- fen entfernt ist. Aufgrund der starken Felder war es daher bisher nicht möglich, den Pulsoximetrie-Modul nahe beim Pa¬ tienten und Kernspintomografen anzuordnen, was ganz offen¬ sichtliche Nachteile für Untersuchung und Behandlung des Patienten bedeutet.The measurement principle in pulse oximetry is based on the wavelength-dependent optical perfusion of the blood vessels located under the skin. The performance and Corn differences in the pulse oximeters available on the market are due to various algorithms in signal processing and are based on a great experience and knowledge base in the field of pulse oximetry. Therefore, some manufacturers, in addition to their own devices, also offer so-called OEM modules, which to a certain extent represent the core piece of measured value acquisition and processing and are thus outstandingly suitable for installation in other medical devices. However, such devices can not be used in the vicinity of magnetic resonance tomographs without using the abovementioned long connecting lines, so that the sensitive pulse oximetry module is sufficiently far from the static magnetic fields and electromagnetic high-frequency measuring fields of the magnetic resonance tomography is removed. Because of the strong fields, it was therefore hitherto not possible to arrange the pulse oximetry module close to the patient and the MRI scanner, which means obvious disadvantages for examination and treatment of the patient.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht in der Schaffung eines pulsoximetrischen Messgerätes, das in ein bestehendes, MR- taugliches Medizingerät, z.B in einen Patientenmonitor oder einen Inkubator integrierbar ist.The object of the invention is to provide a pulsoximetric measuring device that can be integrated into an existing MR-compatible medical device, for example in a patient monitor or an incubator.
Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung besteht darin, dass der Pulso- ximeter-Modul mit einer Abschirmung versehen ist, dass die Abschirmung nur an einem Punkt geerdet ist und dass jeder Signalpfad mit einem Sperrfilter mit einem schmalbandigen Durchlassbereich versehen ist.The solution according to the invention is that the pulse oximeter module is provided with a shield, that the shielding is grounded at only one point, and that each signal path is provided with a blocking filter with a narrowband passband.
Die Erfindung ist eine Kombination von drei Maßnahmen, um ein auf dem Markt angebotenes OEM-Modul in ein Medizingerät zu integrieren. Dabei spielt aus messtechnischer Sicht eine wichtige Rolle, dass sich zwischen der MRT bzw. der Pulso-
ximetrie keine signifikanten Interferenzen hinsichtlich Bildgebung respektive Messgenauigkeit ergeben. Noch wichti¬ ger ist aber der Ausschluss jeglicher Gefährdung von Pati¬ ent und Anwender hinsichtlich Erhitzung von Sensor oder Ka- bei, aufgrund der bei der MRT unvermeidlichen Einkopplung von hochfrequenter Energie und Entstehen von Wirbelströmen verursacht durch zeitlich und räumlich veränderliche Mag¬ netfelder.The invention is a combination of three measures to integrate an OEM module offered in the market into a medical device. From a metrological point of view, an important role is played by the fact that MRI or the pulse ximetry did not result in any significant interference with regard to imaging or measurement accuracy. Even more important, however, is the exclusion of any endangerment of the patient and the user with regard to heating of the sensor or cable because of the unavoidable coupling of high-frequency energy and the generation of eddy currents caused by temporally and spatially variable magnetic fields.
Daher steht als eine grundlegende Maßnahme die Abschirmung aller beteiligten Komponenten und deren Verbindungen vorne an.Therefore, as a fundamental measure, the shielding of all components involved and their connections is at the front.
Jede umhüllende Abschirmung endet auf einem Erdungspunkt; das Vorhandensein von Erdungsschleifen beeinträchtigt Bild- gebung und Messgenauigkeit und wird daher erfindungsgemäße vermieden.Each enclosing shield ends at a grounding point; The presence of ground loops impairs image formation and measurement accuracy and is therefore avoided according to the invention.
Als dritte und wichtigste Maßnahme ist eine Filterung der Signale zwischen Sensor und OEM-Modul vorhanden.The third and most important measure is the filtering of the signals between the sensor and the OEM module.
Bei einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform weist das Filter ein LC-Glied (passives Filter 2. Ordnung) auf.In an advantageous embodiment, the filter has an LC element (passive 2nd order filter).
Vorteilhafter Weise liegt die Durchlassfrequenz des schmal- bandigen Filters im Bereich von 0,1 bis 15 MHz. Die Durch¬ lassfrequenz und die Signalfrequenzen des Pulsoximeters ü- berlappen dann nicht, da Magnetfeldstärke von 1,5 T die Larmorfrequenz der Protonen 63,9 MHz beträgt.Advantageously, the pass frequency of the narrowband filter is in the range of 0.1 to 15 MHz. The pass-through frequency and the signal frequencies of the pulse oximeter do not overlap, since the magnetic field strength of 1.5 T is the Larmor frequency of the protons 63.9 MHz.
Noch vorteilhafter ist es, wenn die Durchlassfrequenz des schmalbandigen Filters im Bereich von 0,1 bis 8 MHz liegt.It is even more advantageous if the pass frequency of the narrow-band filter is in the range of 0.1 to 8 MHz.
Insbesondere kann die Durchlassfrequenz des schmalbandigen Filters wesentlich weniger als 10 MHz beträgt.
Bei einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist ihre Auswerte-Einheit in die Steuerelektronik eines Inkubators integrierbar und von dieser mit Strom zu versorgen.In particular, the pass frequency of the narrow-band filter can be substantially less than 10 MHz. In a particularly advantageous embodiment, its evaluation unit can be integrated into the control electronics of an incubator and supplied by this with electricity.
Die Erfindung wird im Folgenden anhand einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform unter Bezugnahme auf die beigefügten Zeich¬ nungen beispielsweise beschrieben. Es zeigen:The invention will be described below with reference to an advantageous embodiment with reference to the accompanying Zeich¬ calculations, for example. Show it:

Wie dies Fig. 1 gezeigt, wird jedes Signal zwischen Quelle (Q) und Senke (S) entlang eines Pfades (i.d.R. ein elektri¬ sches Kabel) geführt. Auf der linken Seite ist die Quelle, rechts die Senke dargestellt. Bei einem exemplarischen Pulsoximetrie-Modul werden minimal vier Signalpfade zwi¬ schen Sensor und OEM-Modul benötigt:As shown in Figure 1, each signal is passed between source (Q) and drain (S) along a path (i.d.r., an electrical cable). The source is on the left, the sink on the right. In an exemplary pulse oximetry module, at least four signal paths between the sensor and the OEM module are required:

Die von der MRT applizierten Frequenzspektren sind in der jeweiligen Geräteklasse recht schmalbandig, so dass man durch Einschleifen eines selektiven Sperrfilters höherer Ordnung entlang jedes Signalpfades zwischen Sensor und Aus- werte-Einheit nicht nur die o.a. Interferenzen minimiert, ' sondern sowohl HF-Einkopplung als auch Wirbelströme stark reduziert.QS Reception Photodiode (-) Pol The applied by the MRI frequency spectra are quite narrow band in the respective device class, one that by grinding a selective higher order notch filter along each signal path between the sensor and output values assembly not only minimizes the above mentioned interference, 'but both HF coupling and Eddy currents greatly reduced.
Solch ein Sperrfilter lässt sich einfach und dennoch wir- kungs-voll als ein LC-Glied (passives Filter 2. Ordnung), wie dies in Fig. 2 gezeigt ist, realisieren. Im Falle der Pulsoximetrie ist der Nutzfrequenzbereich (« 10 MHz) weit genug von dem der MRT (42 ... 130 MHz) entfernt ist, so dass die Filterung keine negativen Seiteneffekte verursacht.Such a notch filter can be easily and yet effectively realized as an LC element (2nd order passive filter) as shown in FIG. In the case of pulse oximetry, the useful frequency range ("10 MHz) is far enough away from that of MRT (42 ... 130 MHz) that filtering does not cause any negative side effects.
Fig. 3 zeigt den Frequenzgang bei Verwendung des Sperrfil¬ ters nach Fig. 2. Die Resonanzfrequenz wurde für ein MRT- System mit 1.5 T Magnetfeldstärke abgestimmt, dies ent¬ spricht einer Lamor-Frequenz von 63,9 MHz. In diesem Be- reich ist die Einfüge-Dämpfung besser als 40 dBThe resonance frequency was tuned for an MRT system with 1.5 T magnetic field strength, this corresponds to a Lamor frequency of 63.9 MHz. In this area, the insertion loss is better than 40 dB
Diese Filterung ist auf jeden der vier o.a. Signalpfade zwischen Sensor und OEM-Modul vorhanden. Der prinzipieller Aufbau des pulsoximetrischen Messgerätes ist in' Fig. 4 ge- zeigt.This filtering is present on each of the four above signal paths between the sensor and the OEM module. The basic construction of the pulse oximetry instrument is shown overall in 'Fig. 4.
