Abstract

Although there are many patients who suffer from cold hypersensitivity and have a difficult time in living daily lives due to feeling cold at room temperature, it is about true that an accurate diagnostic method and an effective remedy for a cold hypersensitivity have not been developed yet. Therefore, in order to develop traditional medicine equipment for cold hypersensitivity, we have designed new oxygen chamber system which can diagnose cold hypersensitivity with multiple bionic sensors and supply a patient optimum amount of oxygen adaptively to the extent of their illness. In particular, diverging from conventional diagnosis based on the experience of doctor and subjective statements of patient, we introduced accurate method for diagnosis in comparing between output of multiple sensors and threshold derived from clinical trials. After all, the proposed oxygen chamber system will contribute to achieving scientific evidence and manufacturing of korean traditional medicine.

냉감을 느끼지 않을만한 온도에서 신체부위에 차가움을 느껴 일상생활이 곤란함을 호소하는 냉증환자가 늘어남에도 불구하고, 정확한 진단기구와 뚜렷한 치료기기가 없는 것이 사실이다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 다양한 센서를 통하여 냉증을 측정 및 진단하고 환자의 냉증정도에 맞게 적응적으로 산소압과 치료시간을 조정할 수 있는 산소챔버를 냉증치료용 의료기기로 제안 설계한다. 특히 의사의 진찰과 문진을 통해 경험에 의존하던 기존의 주관적인 냉증 진단 방법에서 벗어나, 첨단 복합 생체센서의 측정데이터를 임상실험에 근거한 임계치를 바탕으로 비교함으로써 냉증을 정확히 진단하는 방법을 소개한다. 최종적으로 냉증의 진단 단계에 따라 적응적으로 산소량을 제어함으로써 냉증을 효과적으로 치료하는 산소챔버를 구현하여 한의학 의료기기의 과학화와 대중화에 기여하고자 한다.
