中文摘要
盆底肌肉组织虚弱或不活动可导致患者的一些并发症。这些问题中最常见的是尿失禁,例如“压力性尿失禁(SUI)”。这是指患者在举起重物、打喷嚏、大笑等时尿量减少。SUI虽然不是一种危及生命的疾病,但有可能对女性的心理健康产生负面影响,并阻碍日常生活的各个方面,从而对生活质量产生不利影响。这一发展是为了扩展我们现有的产品INNOVO,该产品用于改善盆腔肌肉组织的发育和表现。拟议的开发旨在捕获与治疗系统性能相关的信息以及用户人口统计数据,从而允许分析方法改善治疗性能并提高患者依从性。这些信息将是将治疗进展到其他重要治疗领域时的强大资源,例如阴道脱垂,大便失禁等。该发展还使用户体验简化,通过改变治疗电极放置和操作模式的方法(治疗服装类似于标准的自行车短裤,穿戴和使用时很容易脱下,舒适),还可以将治疗控制转移到用户的智能手机上,并在数据安全服务器上捕获人口统计治疗和性能数据。
英文摘要
Weak or inactive pelvic floor musculature can result in a number of complications for the sufferer. The most common of these problems is that of urinary incontinence - for example 'stress urinary incontinence (SUI)'. This is when the sufferer experiences urine loss on lifting, sneezing, laughing etc. SUI, while not a life-threatening condition, has the potential to have a negative impact on the psychological health of women and to hinder aspects of daily living, thereby having a detrimental effect on quality of lifeThis development is proposed to enable an extension of our current product INNOVO which is used to improve development and performance of the pelvic musculature. The proposed development is intended to capture both information relating to the performance of the treatment system and also user demographics allowing an analytical approach towards improvement in performance of the therapy and also greater patient compliance. Such information would be a powerful resource when progressing the therapy into other important areas of treatment - for example vaginal prolapse, fecal incontinence etc.The development also enables simplification of the user experience, with a transformational approach to therapeutic electrode placement and mode of operation (the therapeutic garment resembles standard cycling shorts, easy to don and doff and comfortable when wearing and in use) and also moving the controls for the therapy to a users smartphone, and capturing demographic treatment and performance data on data secure servers.
