Wireless Pressure Sensor Assisted Orthopedic Nursing Effectiveness Evaluation

Abstract

This paper combines flexible pressure sensing technology, wireless sensor network, and cloud platform technology to design and manufacture a medical miniature pressure sensor and its supporting system. The problem of noninvasive monitoring of the syndrome encountered in the clinic is used for real-time monitoring and auxiliary diagnosis of the disease. Different from the current clinical use of “puncture” to measure intrafascial pressure, this system focuses on the noninvasive monitoring of compartment syndrome, using medical tape to paste a flexible microsensing unit on the injured area. The flexible sensor unit can measure the pressure here in real time and then can know the pressure in the fascia chamber. The flexible pressure sensor unit combines with the subsequent flexible circuit to send the measured data to the data in real time through wireless communication. The data aggregation node transmits the collected data to the upper computer through serial communication, and the upper computer software processes and stores the data and uploads it to the cloud server. In this experiment, it was observed that the concentrations of Ca and P showed the same fluctuating trend. With the gradual progress of the stretch, the concentrations of Ca and P increased with the increase in time, reaching approximately at the end of the extension. The peak value indicates that the osteoclast activity is enhanced at this time, the bone matrix is largely destroyed, and the Ca and P in the matrix are released into the serum in a large amount, thereby increasing the serum concentration. After the distraction ceases, it enters the healing period of the callus. At this time, the concentrations of Ca and P decrease with the increase in time and gradually reach a stable level, indicating that the osteoblast activity is enhanced at this time, the bone matrix begins to rebuild, and the Ca and P gradually increase. The deposited bone matrix gradually forms new bone and finally reaches a balance. Since the speed of extension in each experimental group is inconsistent, the time required to reach the same extension length is also inconsistent, so that the peak time is also inconsistent. After plotting the stress difference ( $△F$ ) before and after stretching against time and speed, it is found that the relationship is linear. However, these two variables affect $△F$ at the same time, so they cannot be isolated. Based on this, this subject uses multiple regression equations to fit the three relationships of stress difference ( $△F$ ), time, and speed. In the process of distraction osteogenesis, with each distraction, the bone stress presents a trend from high to low. And as the stretch progresses, the measured stress value increases linearly at the same time point every day.
