Abstract

Surgery to increase cerebral blood flow is one of the treatment methods of cerebral infarction. In order to supplement this invasive method, non-invasive devices have been introduced that use human blood pressure to pressurize the extremities to increase cerebral blood flow. However, the problem of poor speed and accuracy was raised. In this paper, the perfusion index of each arm is measured by applying pressure to both arms using Blood Oxygen Level Sensor to improve the accuracy of measurement and measurement time. The pressure applied to the arm is calculated by using the pressure value obtained from the arm. Like the existing blood pressure measuring cerebral blood flow increasing device, the blood flow can be increased by more than 20% and the measurement time can be shortened, so that it can be selectively used for the patient with cerebral infarction.

대뇌혈류를 증가 시키는 수술은 뇌경색의 치료방법중 하나이다. 이러한 침습적인 방법을 보완하기 위해 사람의 혈압을 이용해, 사지에 압박을 가하여 대뇌 혈류를 증가 시키는 비 침습적인 장치도 등장하였다. 그러나 속도와 정확성이 떨어지는 문제점이 제기되었다. 본 논문에서는, 정확한 측정과 측정하는 데에 걸리는 시간을 기존의 장치보다 개선하기 위해, Blood Oxygen Level Sensor를 이용하여, 양팔에 압력을 주면서 각 팔의 Perfusion Index를 측정하여, Perfusion Index가 일정 값 이하로 떨어지는 순간의 75% 압력을 팔에 가하고, 다리에는 팔에서 구해진 압력 값을 이용해 계산하여 얻은 압력을 가한다. 기존의 혈압 측정식 대뇌혈류증가 장치와 같이, 혈류량을 20%이상 증가 시킬 수 있고, 또한 측정 시간도 단축한 결과를 얻어 뇌경색 환자에게 선택적으로 사용할 수 있다.
