Abstract

Accomulated exhaustion is a fairly common problem for long-distance truck and bus drivers on international routes. In case of uncompensated exhaustion, the driver is unable to overcome the resulting attention violations with will effort, which increases the probability of errors and accidents. The last claim is confirmed by the increase in the number of incidents after 7 h and especially 10 h of work. To overcome this problem, it is necessary to stop and fall asleep for a short time. Recovery comes in about 10–15 min of relaxation. The source of stimulation of the brain is weak impulse current, which causes sleep of varying depth and duration. Clinical studies have shown that the strongest impact is on pulses with a duration of approximately 0.3– –0.5 ms and a frequency of repetition ranging from 0.5–2 to 80–100 Hz. Current levels are typically between 50 and 5 mA. Transcranial electrotherapy is considered to stimulate endorphin production and affect the hypothalamus, causing changes in neurohormonal regulatory mechanisms and reticular formation of the brain stem. The reticular formation is involved in many behavioral reactions and has a significant impact on body functioning and thought processes. The aim of this work was to determine correlation between human brain biorhythms and electrosleep device signal by calculating mutual correlation. For this purpose, the model in MATLAB Simulink environment was developed. The encephalogram was processed using the EEGLAB tool to remove artifacts. A model in the MATLAB Simulink environment was developed to evaluate the effect of the signal characteristics of electrosleep therapy devices on brain biorhythms, with the help of which correlation coefficients were calculated.
长途司机电睡眠治疗装置的展望
疲劳累积是长途卡车和公共汽车司机在国际航线上相当普遍的问题。在未补偿的疲劳情况下,驾驶员无法用意志努力克服由此产生的注意力违规,这增加了错误和事故的可能性。最后一种说法得到了证实,即在工作7小时后,尤其是10小时后,事故数量有所增加。为了克服这个问题,有必要停下来小睡一会儿。10-15分钟的放松可以恢复体力。刺激大脑的来源是微弱的脉冲电流,这导致睡眠的深度和持续时间各不相同。临床研究表明,最强烈的影响是持续时间约为0.3 - 0.5 ms,重复频率为0.5-2至80-100 Hz的脉冲。电流水平通常在50到5毫安之间。经颅电疗被认为刺激内啡肽的产生并影响下丘脑,导致神经激素调节机制和脑干网状结构的改变。网状结构参与许多行为反应,对身体功能和思维过程有重要影响。本工作的目的是通过计算相互相关性来确定人脑生物节律与电睡眠装置信号之间的相关性。为此,在MATLAB Simulink环境下开发了该模型。使用EEGLAB工具对脑图进行处理以去除伪影。在MATLAB Simulink环境下建立模型,评估电睡眠治疗装置信号特征对脑生物节律的影响,并计算相关系数。

期刊介绍: Scientific Review Engineering and Environmental Sciences [Przegląd Naukowy Inżynieria i Kształtowanie Środowiska] covers broad area of knowledge and practice on fields such as: sustainable development, landscaping of non-urbanized lands, environmental engineering, construction projects engineering land management, protection and land reclamation, environmental impact of investments, ecology, hydrology and water management, ground-water monitoring and restoration, geotechnical engineering, meteorology and connecting subjects. Authors are welcome to submit theoretical and practice-oriented papers containing detailed case studies within above mentioned disciplines. However, theoretical papers should contain part with practical application of the theory presented. Papers (in Polish or English languages) are accepted for publication after obtaining positive opinions of two reviewers. Papers published elsewhere are not accepted.
