摘要

下肢静脉循环恶化会引发多种健康问题(如静脉曲张、深静脉血栓和心律失常)。然而,由于久坐不动是现代人的生活特点之一,要避免这种情况并不容易。一些研究重点关注改善下肢血液循环,其中一些研究使用了机器人设备。然而,这些机器人不仅导致血液循环不畅,而且过于笨重,无法在日常生活中使用。本研究提出了一种名为 "Healthy-CAL "的新型下肢静脉循环机器人。通过应用半自动锁定连杆机构,Healthy-CAL 的体积得以减小,同时最大限度地扩大了机器人的工作范围。此外,Healthy-CAL 还采用了脚部映射算法,可自动识别用户的踝关节活动范围,让用户在任何坐姿下都能进行最大化的踝关节锻炼。我们对八名参与者进行了实验,以证明所提议的脚部映射算法的有效性。我们还对五名参与者进行了多普勒超声波检查,以证实 Healthy-CAL 改善了静脉循环。

A Novel Robotic Healthcare Device for Treating Chronic Venous Insufficiency in People Who Sit for Prolonged Periods
Deterioration of the lower limb venous circulation can cause several health problems (e.g., varicose veins, deep vein thrombosis, and cardiac arrhythmia). However, it is not easy to avoid owing to a sedentary life, which is one of the characteristics of modern people. Several studies have focused on improving lower limb blood circulation, and some have used robotic devices. These robots, however, not only the lead to poor blood circulation, but also are too bulky and heavy to use in daily life. In this study, a new type of lower limb venous circulation robot called Healthy-CAL is proposed. By applying the semi auto locking linkage mechanism, the size of Healthy-CAL was reduced while the operating range of the robot was maximized. In addition, a foot mapping algorithm was applied to Healthy-CAL, which autonomously recognizes the user’s ankle joint range of motion and allows users to perform maximized ankle exercises regardless of the sitting position. An experiment was conducted with eight participants to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed foot-mapping algorithm. We also used Doppler ultrasound in five participants to confirm the improvement in venous circulation with Healthy-CAL.
