[Research and development of an intelligent moxibustion instrument based on electromyography].
Objective: An intelligent moxibustion instrument based on electromyography was designed to evaluate the real-time therapeutic effect of moxibustion.
Methods: Taking Shenshu (BL23) as the subject, surface electromyography (sEMG) at the center and equidistant points of Shenshu (BL23) were collected. The characteristic parameters, integrated electromyography (iEMG) and root mean square (RMS) were calculated before and after moxibustion. After analyzing the effect of moxibustion, a function algorithm for the end-of-moxibustion was obtained. Using this algorithm and combined with STM32 technology, the control system of moxibustion instrument and the upper computer software were designed to achieve the precise control during moxibustion delivery. Finally, the function, stability and safety of the moxibustion instrument were verified through clinical trials to ensure its effectiveness in practical application.
Results: During one cycle of moxibustion at the center of Shenshu (BL23), the iEMG of sEMG decreased over time, meaning the decrease in muscle fatigue degree, and after one cycle of moxibustion, it elevated over time, showing the increase in muscle fatigue degree. RMS increased by 1.90% before and after moxibustion at the equidistant points of Shenshu (BL23), and the system indicated the end of moxibustion when RMS increased by 0.15%, and decreased by 0.13% at the center of Shenshu (BL23). The intelligent moxibustion instrument designed based on this algorithm can realize the function of mild moxibustion, and the effect of moxibustion can be evaluated by the real-time monitoring of RMS changes through the upper computer. During the operation of moxibustion instrument, moxa stick was fixed stably, remained a safe distance of 3 cm to 4 cm away from the skin surface. When the length of moxa stick was less than 5 cm left after ignited and the skin temperature exceeded the preset safety threshold of 48 ℃, the system was alarmed automatically.
Conclusion: The intelligent moxibustion instrument designed in the research can effectively evaluate the effect of moxibustion, and ensure the safety and stability during moxibustion delivery.
期刊介绍:
Chinese Acupuncture and Moxibustion (founded in 1981, monthly) is an authoritative academic journal of acupuncture and moxibustion under the supervision of China Association for Science and Technology and co-sponsored by Chinese Acupuncture and Moxibustion Society and Institute of Acupuncture and Moxibustion of China Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It is recognised as a core journal of Chinese science and technology, a core journal of Chinese language, and is included in the core journals of China Science Citation Database, as well as being included in MEDLINE and other international well-known medical index databases. The journal adheres to the tenet of ‘improving, taking into account the popularity, colourful and realistic’, and provides valuable learning and communication opportunities for the majority of acupuncture and moxibustion clinical and scientific research workers, and plays an important role in the domestic and international publicity and promotion of acupuncture and moxibustion disciplines.
