Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and an apparatus for carrying out the method for supplying measurement, control and regulation systems, in particular cardiac pacemakers, implanted in human body tissue with photovoltaic energy and the bidirectional data transfer between them and an exogenous evaluation and control module with an encoder-receiver display , for the maintenance and support as well as measurement and diagnosis of organ and body functions.
- Systems of the type described are used in various implanted electromedical devices, such as tissue stimulators, insulin control systems and others.
- Such devices are assigned an ever increasing number of complex functions in order to make them more effective in their therapeutic and diagnostic efficacy as well as simple and tolerable use.
- the quality of life of their wearers is influenced by these devices to a not inconsiderable extent, or their life is extended.
- the duration of the functionality of the systems implanted by surgery alone is of considerable importance to the patient and, as a result, essentially depends on the possible energy supply of the systems.
- a lithium battery for example, it is possible to secure the energy supply for a simple pacemaker without an extended functional range for about 15 years.
- Such a pacemaker correlatively adjusts the heartbeat rate according to a fixed, predetermined pattern via the blood oxygen value determined and thus no longer meets the latest requirements, which, for example, enable input of control commands in the case of changes in the stress caused by the circulatory system or diagnosis of physical functions via data feedback .
- DE-OS 36 05915 describes a control and power supply unit for implanted electromedical measuring, control and regulating systems with an electronic unit, the energy requirement of which is generated photovoltaically by solar cells. These are not implanted, but rather are arranged on preferred parts of the body so that there is no galvanic connection between them and the implanted electronic unit. Rather, the solar cell energy is transmitted inductively via a transmission system with a primary winding that can be attached to parts of the body and an implanted secondary winding, and is supplied to the implanted electronic unit via lines inserted into blood vessels. The transmission system also provides a bidirectional data transfer between a control panel fed directly by the solar cells for issuing control commands and the implanted measuring, control and regulating system with the electronic unit.
- the problem which is to be solved by the invention is to demonstrate a method and a device for supplying implanted MeR, control and regulating systems with photovoltaic energy and the bidirectional transfer of oats between these and exogenous evaluation and control modules which show the impairments of the Minimize patients with regard to implantation and during use, reduce the expenditure on equipment and surgery, reduce the susceptibility to electromagnetic fields and the transmission losses.
- the solar cells implanted in the body tissue are irradiated with light in the visible and / or infrared spectral range, which strikes the skin surface in the area of a light immission skin zone and this and the further translucent body tissue penetrates on the way to the solar cells with absorption losses and the bidirectional oate transfer takes place in the same way by means of control-modulated light in the wavelength ranges 800 to 900 nm or 1250 to 1350 nm or 1450
- the invention is explained in more detail below in an exemplary embodiment.
- Fig. 3 Evaluation and control module with encoder-receiver display, in
- Fig. 4 Block diagram.
- Fig. 1 in a schematic representation of the energy supply and data transfer of a pacemaker 2 according to Fig. 2 is based on the knowledge that the all-available energy carrier light in the visible and / or infrared spectral range, with certain absorption losses, basically without problems the body tissue 16, ie skin, husk, connective tissue, etc., must be penetrated and then photovoltaic energy must be generated, as the results shown below prove both with sunlight and with artificial light tests.
- the tests were carried out using a commercially available thin-film solar cell with an effective area of 48.5 ⁇ 52.5 mm and a thickness of 1.4 mm, 95% of which being glass cover as transparent protection and mechanical support of the light-sensitive energy-generating layer, carried out.
- 16 coarse-fiber, lean pork cut across the muscle fiber in various layers was used as the "replacement medium”.
- Cloud cover Large Cumulus congestus, a large Comulus nimbus (60%) from the sun.
- the method according to the invention also provides for the light incident in the area of the light immission skin zone 18 to be amplified.
- this light is partially decoupled with regard to the infrared wavelengths and entirely with respect to the ultraviolet.
- the choice of appropriate material for the optical fiber ends 10, 11 and the control light guide 12 already allows a determined decoupling of certain wavelength ranges. This material opposes the wavelengths with a high attenuation value. This eliminates the need for technically complex filter attachments.
- the bidirectional data transfer is basically based on the same principle as the energy transfer.
- the device shown in Fig. 1 for supplying the implanted pacemaker 2 with energy and data transfer describe themselves as follows with regard to their structure and mode of operation.
- the segment 19 is arranged directly on the capsule 6, preferably made of ceramic, of the pacemaker 2 under the highly transparent casing 14, which is permeable to light waves in the visible and infrared range.
- the solar cells 2 arranged directly on the capsule 6 provide sufficient energy for the supply of supply voltage for the permanent charging of the battery 15, on the one hand, with control dominance, for optoelectronic control of the pacemaker 2 via the light receiving element 3, a photodetector, which is positioned centrally in the segment 19, instead.
- the galvanic connections from the solar cells 5 and the light receiving element 3 to the control and regulating unit 17, which is also located inside the capsule 6, and from this to the accumulator 15 are only a few millimeters long. In this way, the direct current generated reaches the control and regulating unit 17 without conversion and with very little loss.
- the accumulator 15 has a number of charging cycles of over 2000.
- lithium secondary elements are special as accumulators suitable.
- cell voltages 3 volts for solid electrolytes 1.5 to 1.9 volts per cell and energy densities of 0.6 to 1.7 Wh per cm / 3.
- Asynchronous AC charging enables charging cycles to be further increased. This results in a capacity expansion of approx. 300 per 1000 charging cycles.
- the luminous surface 7 serves to amplify the incoming light. That can be done by consisting of light-emitting diodes shining in the appropriate wave range, which receive their energy from external accumulators, batteries or solar cells.
- Fig. 1 shows another solution.
- Glass heads 9 of light fiber ends 10, 11 are arranged in the illuminated area 7.
- the bundled light fiber ends 10 are connected to a daylight plane, not shown, and the light fiber ends 11 are connected to an artificial light plane by optical fibers, which are arranged two-dimensionally in textile or other suitable partial areas of clothing in light entry areas.
- the light emitting element 4, which is adjusted to the light receiving element 3, is preferably arranged centrally in the luminous area 7. It is connected via the control light guide 12 to the laser transmission module 20, the structure of which is shown in FIG. 3. It comprises the light guide plug connection 26, the laser module 25, the database scanning display 24 with the control panel 23 and the energy connection socket 21 and the connection contact 22, which is designed as a serial or parallel interface, via which the data of the implanted pacemaker 2 can be diagnosed .
- the control panel 23 allows the active input of control commands to the pacemaker 2 in adaptation to the human circulation and the current external conditions.
- the control light guide 12 is flooded with control-modulated light in the wavelength ranges 1250 to 1350 nm or 1450 to 1550 nm and emerges in the light transmission element 4.
- a transmitter module of an LED transmitter with a luminous diode can be used instead of the laser transmitter module 20 .
- the wavelength can be selected to which the data can be modulated.
- the light pulses emerging from the light-emitting element 4 and penetrating the body tissue 16 on the way to the light-receiving element 3 have control dominance over the uniform light emission serving to supply energy to the solar cells 5.
- the light receiving element 3 designed as a photodetector receives the light pulses, converts these into electrical and forwards them to the control and regulating unit 17 of the pacemaker 2 via short conduction paths.
- the control unit 17 For the response from the control unit 17 to the evaluation and control module with transmitter-receiver display 13, in the present case to the laser transmitter module 20, the function of the light receiving element 3 and the light emitting element 4 is reversed.
- a galvanic return line can be parallelized to the control light guide 12, in the event that the energy level of an optical feedback should appear too low considering the length of the control light guide 12.
- Another possibility of feedback is the use of modulated radio frequency via the radio frequency transmission term 1 and the radio frequency receiving antenna 27.
- control unit 17 control unit

Abstract
L'invention vise à minimiser les troubles qui affectent les patients lors de l'implantation et pendant l'utilisation, à réduire la complexité technique au niveau des appareils et de l'exploitation, ainsi qu'à réduire la sensibilité aux parasites par rapport aux champs électromagnétiques, ainsi que les pertes de transmission. Des cellules solaires (5) implantées sont soumises à une radiation lumineuse dans le domaine spectral du visible et/ou de l'infrarouge, qui a une incidence sur la surface de la peau, dans la région d'une zone dermique d'immission lumineuse (18), et pénètre la surface de la peau ainsi que les tissus organiques (16) diaphanes, sur la trajectoire menant aux cellules solaires (5), avec des pertes d'absorption. Le transfert de données bidirectionnel s'effectue sur la même trajectoire à l'aide d'une lumière à commande modulée des plages de longueur d'onde comprises entre 800 et 900 nm ou entre 1250 et 1350 nm, ou bien entre 1450 et 1550 nm par technique de génération de la lumière, entre un élément d'émission de lumière (4) optoélectronique exogène, fixé de manière flexible au-dessus de la zone dermique d'immission lumineuse (18) et un élément de réception de la lumière (3) optoélectronique implanté, avec un inversement possible des fonctions entre les deux éléments (4, 3). L'invention concerne en outre des appareils électromédicaux implantés, qui servent à maintenir et à préserver des fonctions organiques et physiologiques, ainsi qu'à les mesurer et à établir des diagnostics les concernant. Ces appareils peuvent être des stimulateurs tissulaires, des systèmes de régulation du taux d'insuline, notamment des stimulateurs cardiaques (2).
