Description
本發明係為有關一種生理訊號感測裝置，特別是指一種複合式感應電極及其生理訊號感測裝置。 The invention relates to a physiological signal sensing device, in particular to a composite sensing electrode and a physiological signal sensing device thereof.
透過人體皮膚量測的生理訊號，係為一種可輕易取得且可讓醫生進一步瞭解患者的身體狀況，例如利用心電儀接觸皮膚偵測心電訊號輸出心電圖，可依據心跳週期頻率推測患者的心臟是否健康，或透過腦波儀接觸頭皮，以偵測腦波訊號，可藉由腦部的生理變化判斷患者的意識、情緒等狀態。 The physiological signal measured through the human skin is an easily obtainable and allows the doctor to further understand the patient's physical condition. For example, using an electrocardiograph to contact the skin to detect the ECG output ECG, the patient's heart can be estimated based on the heartbeat cycle frequency. Whether it is healthy, or through the brain wave instrument to contact the scalp to detect brain wave signals, the physiological changes of the brain can be used to judge the patient's consciousness, mood and other states.
目前偵測生理訊號的電極多係利用電極貼片，將電極貼片貼在身體上，擷取生理訊號後紀錄生理訊號，再製成生理訊號圖，如腦波圖、心電圖等供醫師診斷。以量測腦波為例，通常係使用電極貼片貼附於使用者頭部，但電極貼片用在量測腦波時會受頭髮干擾，而影響量測結果。因此為解決電極貼片被頭髮干擾，目前另外設置一種電極貼片，其係需要塗抹導電膠，以幫助電極貼片導電，但導電膠易乾，因此需不斷重複塗抹導電膠於使用者頭部，且導電膠容易黏附於使用者頭髮上，造成清洗時相當不易。 At present, most of the electrodes for detecting physiological signals use electrode patches, and the electrode patches are attached to the body, physiological signals are recorded, physiological signals are recorded, and physiological signals such as brain waves and electrocardiograms are prepared for diagnosis by a physician. Taking the measurement of brain waves as an example, an electrode patch is usually attached to the user's head, but the electrode patch is used to measure the brain wave and is interfered by the hair, which affects the measurement result. Therefore, in order to solve the interference of the electrode patch by the hair, an electrode patch is additionally provided, which needs to be coated with a conductive adhesive to help the electrode patch to conduct electricity, but the conductive adhesive is easy to dry, so it is necessary to repeatedly apply the conductive adhesive to the user's head. And the conductive adhesive is easy to adhere to the user's hair, which makes it relatively difficult to clean.
有鑑於此，本發明遂針對上述習知技術之缺失，提出一種複合式感應電極及其生理訊號感測裝置，以有效克服上述之該等問題。 In view of the above, the present invention proposes a composite sensing electrode and a physiological signal sensing device thereof to effectively overcome the above problems in view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the prior art.
