계측분석방법을 적용한 측만증 교정장치와 이를 이용한 척추 측만증 교정방법Scoliosis Correction Apparatus Applying Measurement Analysis Method

보다 상세하게는, 착용 환자가 교정 장치를 착용한 상태에서, 체온, 벨트장력, 자세를 포함한 다양하고 정확한 착용 상태 데이터를 기록, 저장, 확인할 수 있도록 함으로써, 교정 치료의 효과를 개선할 수 있는 계측분석방법을 적용한 측만증 교정장치와 이를 이용한 척추 측만증 교정방법에 관한 것이다.More specifically, a measurement that can improve the effectiveness of orthodontic treatment by allowing the wearing patient to record, store, and confirm various accurate wearing state data including body temperature, belt tension, and posture while wearing the corrective device. The present invention relates to an apparatus for correcting scoliosis using analytical methods and a method for correcting scoliosis using the same.
또한, 누적된 착용 상태 데이터와 환자의 교정 이력을 매칭하여 분석함으로써, 측만증 교정장치를 이용한 교정효과 검증, 교정 과정에서 척추 만곡 양상과 체형 변화를 고려한 실시간 교정 지도, 축적된 데이터를 활용한 교정 방법 개선 자료 및, 할인율을 포함한 의료 보험 적용시 필요한 데이터로 활용될 수 있는 계측분석방법을 적용한 측만증 교정장치와 이를 이용한 척추 측만증 교정방법에 관한 것이다.In addition, by matching and analyzing the accumulated wearing state data and the patient's correction history, verification of correction effect using scoliosis correction device, real-time correction map considering spine curvature pattern and body shape during correction process, correction method using accumulated data The present invention relates to a scoliosis correction apparatus using a measurement analysis method that can be used as data necessary for applying medical insurance including improvement data and a discount rate, and a scoliosis correction method using the same.
척추는 정, 후면에서 봤을 때 1자에 가까운 것이 정상이다. 그러나 어떠한 이유로 인해서 좌, 우측으로 휘어진 것을 척추 측만증이라고 하며, 척추 만곡의 각도가 10°~ 40°에 이르면 교정 장치를 통하여 교정하는 것이 일반적이다.It is normal that the spine is close to 1 character when seen from the front and rear. However, for some reason the left and right bent scoliosis is called scoliosis, when the angle of spinal curvature reaches 10 ° ~ 40 ° is usually corrected through the correction device.
척추 측만증 교정 장치는, 조끼 형태로 제작된 것으로 환자의 상체에 착용하는 것이다. 환자의 측만증 증상의 경중과 병의 진행 상황을 근거로하여, 담당 의사의 지도에 따라 착용하는 의료 보조 기구로서, 특정한 세기의 교정 부하를 상체에 인가하는 장치이다. 좌, 우로 휘어진 척추를 바로 세우는 것이 측만증 교정기의 기본적인 장착 목적이기 때문에, 교정 장치에는 일정한 부하 인가가 가능하도록, 체결 벨트가 붙어 있다. 또한 일시적인 물리력을 단시간에 인가하여, 휘어진 척추를 바로 세우는 것이 아니라, 일정한 교정 부하를 장시간 환자의 상체에 인가하는 방법이므로, 매일 23시간, 수 개월 동안 지속적으로 착용해야 한다. 이렇게 측만증 교정 장치를 이용한 측만증 교정 과정은, 오랜 시간 꾸준히 착용하여야, 기대한 교정 효과를 얻을 수 있는 힘든 과정이다.Scoliosis correction device, which is made in the form of a vest to be worn on the upper body of the patient. It is a device for applying a corrective load of a certain intensity to the upper body as a medical aid worn on the basis of the severity of the patient's scoliosis symptoms and the progress of the disease. Since it is the basic purpose of the scoliosis corrector to straighten the spine bent left and right, the orthodontic device is provided with a fastening belt so that a constant load can be applied. In addition, the temporary physical force is applied in a short time, and the curved spine is not erected directly, but a constant correction load is applied to the upper body of the patient for a long time, so it should be continuously worn for 23 hours and several months every day. The scoliosis correction process using the scoliosis correction device is a difficult process that can be expected to achieve the expected correction effect, if worn for a long time steadily.
최근에는 성장기의 청소년에게서도 척추 측만증 발병율이 높아지고 있다. 책상에서 지내는 시간이 길어짐에 따라서, 바람직한 공부 자세를 유지하기 어렵기 때문이며, TV, 모니터, 스마트 기기 등, 최근 청소년들이 좋지 못한 자세로 생활하게 하는, 유해한 습관을 유발하는 환경이 많이 구비되어있기 때문이다.Recently, the incidence of scoliosis has also increased in older adolescents. This is because the longer the time spent on the desk, the more difficult it is to maintain a desirable study posture, and because there are many environments that cause harmful habits such as TVs, monitors, and smart devices, which cause the teenagers to live in a bad posture recently. to be.
아직 성장기에 있는 청소년들에게는, 외과적 치료에 못지 않게 중요한 치료 방법중에 하나가, 교정 기구를 이용한 교정이다. 그러나 종래의 교정 기구를 이용한 측만증 교정 방법은, 단지 장시간 장착해야 한다는 점 외에도 여러 가지 개선점이 많다.For young people still growing, one of the most important treatments for surgical treatment is correction with orthodontic instruments. However, the scoliosis correction method using the conventional correction mechanism has many improvements besides only the long mounting.
앞서 언급한 바와 같이 측만증 교정 기구는 수개월 이상 하루 23시간 정도 착용해야 하기 때문에, 인내심을 필요로 하는 과정이다. 특히 청소년기에는 운동량이 많으며, 착용에 따른 상체 전체의 압박감을 부담스러워 하며, 외모에 대한 관심이 많은 시기이므로, 수 개월간의 착용에 대한 부담감뿐만 아니라, 하루 20시간 이상 착용해야 하는 상황의 심리적 압박감도 간과할 수 없는 정도이다. 이런 이유로 인해서, 교정기 벨트의 미체결 혹은 필요한 교정 부하량에 미치지 못할 만큼 느슨하게 체결되는 경우가 많다. 하지만 환자가 교정기에 대해, 일상 의복과 같이 익숙해지면, 미체결 혹은 느슨하게 체결됨의 문제점을 인식하지 못하는 경우도 많다.As mentioned above, scoliosis correction instruments require patience because they need to be worn for 23 hours or more per month. In particular, in adolescence, there is a lot of exercise, pressure on the entire upper body due to wearing, and attention to the appearance is a lot of time, so not only the burden of wearing for several months, but also the psychological pressure of the situation to wear more than 20 hours a day It cannot be overlooked. For this reason, there are many cases where the fasteners are not fastened or loosely fastened to the required calibration load. However, when a patient becomes accustomed to braces, such as everyday clothes, they often do not recognize the problem of unfastened or loosened.
이런 상황이 발생하면, 교정 효과가 저하됨은 물론이고, 담당 의료인은 교정 효과 저하의 원인을 정확히 파악하기 어렵게 되며, 이후 교정의 방법 및 방향에 대해서 오판의 가능성도 있다.When such a situation occurs, not only the correction effect is lowered, but also the medical staff in charge becomes difficult to pinpoint the cause of the correction effect, and there is a possibility of misjudgment about the method and direction of the correction.
또한, 현재의 측만증 교정기는 교정 효과에 대한 객관적인 근거 자료가 불분명하다. 외과적 치료의 일종인 측만증 교정기는 '의료 전문가의 지도에 의한 물리적 힘이 지속적으로 환자의 신체에 인가' 되어야 한다. 그러나 그 '물리적 힘'의 크기와 '지속성'이 보장되지 않거나, 적어도 그것이 확인 불가능 한 상황에서는, 교정기 착용 전후의 인과 관계 규명이 어렵기 때문에, 교정기의 정확한 효과를 입증할만한 객관적인 데이터가 부족한 상황이다. 또한 환자마다 측만증의 정도와 형태가 다름에도, 더 개선되거나 특정 환자에 특화된 교정기 혹은 교정 방법에 대한 연구가 어려운 실정이다.In addition, current scoliosis correctors have unclear objective evidence of the effect of correction. Scoliosis braces, a type of surgical treatment, must be 'continuously applied to the patient's body by the guidance of a medical professional.' However, in situations where the magnitude and persistence of the 'physical force' are not guaranteed or at least it is unidentifiable, it is difficult to identify causal relationships before and after wearing the braces, resulting in a lack of objective data to demonstrate the correct effect of the braces. . In addition, even though the degree and form of scoliosis varies from patient to patient, it is difficult to study further improved or specific braces or correction methods.
이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서, 교정기 자체에 교정기의 착용 상태 정보를 기록하고, 그 착용 상태 정보를 외부의 기기 장치로 전송하여, 원하는 정보를 확인할 수 있게 함으로써, 착용 환자의 개인적인 교정 효과를 극대화 할 수 있을 것이다. 또한 교정기 착용 정보와 환자의 교정효과 데이터가 매칭되어 누적됨으로써, 교정효과에 대한 객관적이면서도 정확한 근거 자료가 도출 될 수 있을 것이다.In order to solve this problem, the wear state information of the braces is recorded on the braces itself, and the wear state information is transmitted to an external device so that the desired information can be checked, thereby maximizing the personal correction effect of the wearing patient.

본 발명의 일실시예에 따른 계측분석방법을 적용한 측만증 교정장치와 이를 이용한 척추 측만증 교정방법 척추 측만증 환자의 척추 만곡을 교정하기 위한 장치이다. Scoliosis correction apparatus using the measurement analysis method according to an embodiment of the present invention and scoliosis correction method using the same device for correcting the spine curvature of scoliosis patients.
도 1은 본 발명의 일 실시예에 의한 계측분석방법을 적용한 측만증 교정장치의 정면도를 도시하였으며, 도 2는 본 발명의 일 실시예에 의한 계측분석방법을 적용한 측만증 교정장의 체결 벨트가 풀린 정면도를 도시하였다.1 is a front view of the scoliosis correction apparatus applying the measurement analysis method according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 is a front view of the fastening belt loosened in the scoliosis correction field applying the measurement analysis method according to an embodiment of the present invention Shown.
도 1에 도시한 바와 같이 척추 측만증 교정 장치는 조끼 형태의 틀인 교정장치 몸체(100)와 이를 환자 상체에 체결하기 위한 체결 벨트(110), 교정장치 착용 상태를 측정하기 위한 측정 센서(210, 220, 230, 240) 및 측정 장치(120)를 포함할 수 있다.As shown in FIG. 1, the scoliosis correction device includes a correction device body 100 having a vest-shaped frame, a fastening belt 110 for fastening it to the upper body of a patient, and measurement sensors 210 and 220 for measuring a state of wearing the correction device. , 230, 240, and the measurement device 120.
측정 센서(210, 220, 230, 240)는 체온 센서(210), 장력 센서(220), 자세 센서(230), 압력센서(240)을 포함할 수 있으며, 교정 장치 몸체(100)에서 탈부착이 가능하여, 착용 환자의 상태에 따라서 부착 위치를 변경할 수 있다. The measurement sensors 210, 220, 230, and 240 may include a body temperature sensor 210, a tension sensor 220, a posture sensor 230, and a pressure sensor 240. It is possible to change the attachment position according to the state of the wearing patient.
즉, 본 발명에 의한 측만증 교정장치는 착용 환자가 교정 장치를 착용한 상태에서, 체온, 벨트장력, 자세, 압력을 포함한 다양하고 정확한 착용 상태 데이터를 기록, 저장, 확인할 수 있도록 함으로써, 교정 치료의 효과를 개선할 수 있다.In other words, the scoliosis correction apparatus according to the present invention allows the wearer to wear a correction device, by recording, storing, and confirming various accurate wearing state data including body temperature, belt tension, posture, pressure, The effect can be improved.
또한, 누적된 착용 상태 데이터와 환자의 교정 이력을 매칭하여 분석함으로써, 측만증 교정장치를 이용한 교정효과 검증, 교정 과정에서 척추 만곡 양상과 체형 변화를 고려한 실시간 교정 지도, 축적된 데이터를 활용한 교정 방법 개선 자료 및, 할인율을 포함한 의료 보험 적용시 필요한 데이터로 활용될 수 있다.In addition, by matching and analyzing the accumulated wearing state data and the patient's correction history, verification of correction effect using scoliosis correction device, real-time correction map considering spine curvature pattern and body shape during correction process, correction method using accumulated data It can be used as improvement data and data necessary for applying medical insurance including discount rate.
체온 센서(210)은 착용 환자의 체온을 측정하는 목적으로 부착되기 때문에, 착용시 신체 접촉이 가능하기 위해서는, 도 2에 도시한 바와 같이 교정장치 몸체(100)의 내면에 장착되는 것이 바람직할 수 있다. 또한 신체 각 부위마다 체온이 다르게 측정 될 수 있으므로, 적어도 두 곳 이상에 체온 센서를 장착할 수 있으며, 복수개의 체온 센서를 이용한, 체온 측정 값으로, 환자의 교정장치 착용여부도 확인 할 수도 있다.Since the body temperature sensor 210 is attached for the purpose of measuring the body temperature of a patient to be worn, it may be preferable to be mounted on the inner surface of the body 100 of the calibrator as shown in FIG. have. In addition, since the body temperature may be measured differently for each part of the body, the body temperature sensor may be mounted in at least two places, and the body temperature measurement value using the plurality of body temperature sensors may also check whether the patient wears the correction device.
자세 센서(220)는 착용 환자의 상체 자세를 감지하는 센서로서, 전후좌우로 기울어진 상태와 이동 및 회전 상태를 감지 할 수 있는데, 일반적으로 사용되는 자이로 센서를 사용할 수 있다. 2축 이상의 자세 센서를 이용하여, 센서의 장착 수를 절감할 수도 있으며, 1축의 자세 센서(220) 다수를 교정기 몸체의 서로 다른 위치에 장착하고, 자세 센서(220)의 측정값과 각 센서의 위치를 매칭시키면, 착용 환자의 자세를 3차원적 형상으로 구현할 수도 있다. 이렇게 하면 착용한 환자 상체에 휨이 있는지 혹은 비틀림을 구분 할 수도 있다.The posture sensor 220 is a sensor for detecting the upper body posture of a wearing patient. The posture sensor 220 may detect a tilted state, a movement state, and a rotation state in front, rear, left, and right directions, and a gyro sensor which is generally used may be used. By using two or more posture sensors, the number of mounting of the sensors may be reduced, and a plurality of posture sensors 220 on one axis may be mounted at different positions of the calibrator body, and the measured values of the posture sensors 220 and the By matching the position, the posture of the wearing patient may be implemented in a three-dimensional shape. This can be used to distinguish between warping and torsion in the upper body of the patient.
장력 센서(230)는 환자가 교정 장치를 착용 했을 때, 교정에 필요한 교정 부하가 인가되는지를 확인하기 위한 센서이다. 척추 측만 교정장치의 착용 목적인, 척추의 만곡을 교정하기 위해서는, 의학적 자료에 근거한, 균일하고 일정한 교정 부하가 환자의 상체에 인가되어야 한다. 따라서 적절한 벨트 장력은, 척추 만곡을 교정하는데 중요한 요소이다.The tension sensor 230 is a sensor for checking whether a calibration load required for calibration is applied when the patient wears the calibration device. In order to correct the curvature of the spine, the purpose of wearing the scoliosis correction device, a uniform and constant correction load based on medical data must be applied to the upper body of the patient. Therefore, proper belt tension is an important factor in correcting spinal curvature.
벨트 체결은, 환자 상체에 교정 장치 몸체(100)가, 교정 부하를 인가하기 위한 것으로, 교정 부하의 인가 여부는 환자 몸체와 교장 장치 몸체와의 밀착 정도를 의미한다. 따라서 벨트를 강하게 체결할 수록, 환자 몸체와 교정 장치 몸체가 강하게 밀착했다고 가정할 수 있으며, 교정 장치의 교정 부하가 환자 몸체에 적절하게 작용하고 있는지를 판단하는 지표로서 활용할 수 있다. 그러나 인체는 3차원은 굴곡이 심한 형상이다. 따라서 교정 장치 몸체(100)의 일측에 구비된 벨트를 체결하는 것만으로, 환자 몸체의 여러 부위에, 교정 장치 몸체가 교정 부하를 인가 하는 것을 정확히 판단하기 어려울 수 있다. 즉, 벨트 체결의 장력은, 환자 몸체에 교정 장치에 의한 교정 부하 인가를 측정하기 위한, 간접적인 물리량이라고 할 수 있다. Belt fastening is for the orthodontic device body 100 to apply the orthodontic load to the upper body of the patient, and whether or not to apply the orthodontic load means the degree of close contact between the patient body and the principal device body. Therefore, as the belt is tightened more strongly, it can be assumed that the patient body and the orthodontic device body are in close contact with each other, and can be used as an indicator for determining whether or not the orthodontic load of the orthodontic device is properly acting on the patient body. However, the human body is a three-dimensional bent shape. Therefore, just by fastening the belt provided on one side of the calibration device body 100, it may be difficult to accurately determine that the calibration device body is applying a calibration load to the various parts of the patient body. That is, the tension of the belt fastening can be said to be an indirect physical quantity for measuring the application of the calibration load to the patient body by the orthodontic device.
따라서 교정 부하가 인가되는지 여부를 측정하는 직접적인 측정값인, 환자 몸체와 교정 장치 사이에 작용하는 압력을 측정하는, 압력 센서(240)를 주요 교정력 작용 지점들에 장착함으로써, 그 압력 변화의 추이 관찰을 통하여 의도한 교정 작용과 치료효과에 관련된 의학적 자료에 활용할 수 있다. Thus, by mounting a pressure sensor 240 at the major calibration force acting points, which measure the pressure acting between the patient body and the calibration device, a direct measure of whether a calibration load is applied, to observe the trend of the pressure change. This can be used for medical data related to the intended corrective and therapeutic effects.
앞서 언급한 바와 같이, 교정장치의 착용기간은, 수개월 정도로 매우 길기 때문에, 교정 장치를 착용한 환자의 체형이 변형될 수도 있으며, 계절 변화에 따른 의복에 따라서도 교정 장치 몸체(100)가 착용되는 유효한 환자 체형은 변할 수 있다. 도 1 내지 도2에 도시한 바와 같이 체결 벨트(110) 자체에는 어떠한 계측이나 제어 장치가 없기 때문에, 앞서 언급한 환자의 신체적 변화 상태에 맞추어 일정한, 교정 부하를 인가하기 위한, 벨트 체결 정도를 인지하기 어렵다. As mentioned above, since the wearing period of the orthodontic device is very long, for several months, the body shape of the patient wearing the orthodontic device may be deformed, and the body of the orthodontic device 100 may be worn depending on the clothes according to the seasonal change. Available patient body types can vary. 1 to 2, since there is no measurement or control device in the fastening belt 110 itself, the belt fastening degree for applying a constant, corrective load in accordance with the physical change state of the patient mentioned above is recognized. Difficult to do
장력 센서(230)를 이용하여 벨트 장력 측정 및 확인하면, 앞서 언급한 여러 가지 이유로 인한 환자 체형변형이 발생해도, 일정한 벨트 상태는 변함없이 일정한 상태를 유지할 수 있다. 즉, 실제 체결 벨트(110)의 체결 위치와 무관하게 벨트 자체에 인가되는 장력을 측정하게 되면, 불가피하게 신체적 변화가 발생하였다 하더라도, 효과적인 만곡 교정에 필요한 교정 부하값은 차이가 없으므로, 환자 스스로 교정 부하값과 그에 대응하는 벨트 장력값을 인지 하고 있는 상태라면, 항상 일정한 벨트 장력을 유지할 수 있다.When the belt tension is measured and confirmed using the tension sensor 230, even if the patient body deformation occurs due to the aforementioned reasons, the constant belt state may remain constant. That is, if the tension applied to the belt itself is measured irrespective of the actual fastening position of the fastening belt 110, even if there is an unavoidable physical change, there is no difference in the calibration load required for effective bending correction, so that the patient self-corrects If the load value and the corresponding belt tension value are known, constant belt tension can be maintained at all times.
또한 벨트 장력이 측정되지 않으면, 교정기 착용 여부를 확인할 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라 벨트가 체결되었다 하더라도, 벨트 장력이 교정 부하에 대응하는 벨트 장력값에 미치지 못하는 경우에도, 만곡 교정의 효과가 현저히 떨어질 수 있기 때문에, 교정 효과에 대한 명확한 인과 관계 규명이 가능하다.In addition, if the belt tension is not measured, it is possible to check whether or not the braces are worn. In addition, even when the belt is fastened, even when the belt tension does not reach the belt tension value corresponding to the calibration load, the effect of the bending correction may be remarkably degraded, so that a clear causal relationship to the calibration effect can be identified.
압력 센서(240)을 이용하여 측정된 교정 장치와 환자 몸체의 압력 측정값은, 체결 벨트의 어떠한 체결 상황과 무관하고 독립적이고, 앞서 설명한 바와 같이 직접적인 교정 부하의 양상을 추적할 수 있다. 즉, 체결 벨트의 체결 상태와 무관하게, 환자 체형의 변화를 포함하는 모든 압력 변화 요인을 그대로 반영되어 측정되며, 변화요인의 작용과 그에 대한 반응도 벨트 장력 측정 방법에 비하여, 즉각적일 수 있다. 따라서 장력 센서(230)에서 측정되는 벨트 장력, 그리고 압력 센서(240)에서 측정되는 압력 및 환자의 측만증 증상 변화의 추이를 복합적으로 관찰 분석함으로써, 보다 개선된 교정 효과를 기대할 수 있으면서, 부자연스러운 착용감의 부담과 외형적 거부감이 개선된 교정 장치의 개발에 도움이 될 수 있을 것이다.The pressure measurement values of the calibration device and the patient body measured using the pressure sensor 240 are independent of any fastening situation of the fastening belt and can track aspects of direct calibration load as described above. That is, regardless of the fastening state of the fastening belt, all the pressure change factors including the change in the patient's body shape is measured as it is, and the action and response to the change factor may be immediate as compared to the belt tension measuring method. Therefore, the combined observation and analysis of the belt tension measured by the tension sensor 230, the pressure measured by the pressure sensor 240, and the change of the patient's scoliosis symptoms, the improved correction effect can be expected, while unnatural fit The burden and oversight may be helpful in the development of an improved calibration device.
도1 내지 2에 도시된 바와 같이 체결 벨트는 교정장치몸체(100) 상부에서 하부로 복수개가 장착됨으로써, 상체의 가슴과 배에 이르는 연직 방향으로 의도적인 장력을 인가할 수 있다. 따라서 장력 센서(220)와 압력 센서(240)도 교정 장치 몸체(100)에 복수개를 장착하여, 위치별 장력을 구분하여 측정, 확인할 수 있다.As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a plurality of fastening belts are mounted from the upper portion to the lower portion of the straightening device body 100, thereby intentionally applying tension in the vertical direction up to the chest and stomach of the upper body. Accordingly, a plurality of tension sensors 220 and pressure sensors 240 may also be mounted on the calibration device body 100 to distinguish and measure the tension for each position.

또한 착용 환자는 자신의 신체 활동 상태을 자신의 스마트 장치에 설정하거나 입력할 수 있다. 앞서 언급한 바와 같이 측만증 교정기는 주로 청소년기에 사용하는데, 활동량이 많은 청소년들의 신체 활동 상태는, 일반 성인에 비해서 매우 다양하고 활동적일 수 있다. 즉, 직립상태, 착석상태, 보행상태, 가벼운 운동상태, 취침상태, 또는 운동장과 같은 평지에 앉은 상태등, 다양하면서 때로는 과격한 신체 활동상태를 고려할 수 있다.The wearing patient can also set or enter his or her physical activity state on his smart device. As mentioned above, scoliosis braces are mainly used in adolescence, and the physical activity state of the active adolescents can be very diverse and active compared to general adults. That is, various and sometimes extreme physical activity states may be considered, such as standing up state, sitting state, walking state, light exercise state, sleeping state, or sitting state on a flat surface such as a playground.
따라서 이러한 신체 활동 상태를 착용상태데이터롸 함께 고려함으로써, 교정기의 교정 효과를 보다 정확히 판단할 수 있다. 착용 환자는 자신의 스마트 장치를 이용하여, 자신의 신체 활동 상태를 입력할 수 있게 하고, 입력된 신체 활동 상태를 센서에서 측정되는 착용상태 데이터와 시간을 매칭하여 저장하여, 의료인이 확인하여 분석하게 할 수 있다.Therefore, by considering the state of physical activity together with the wearing state data, it is possible to more accurately determine the corrective effect of the braces.
