Abstract
Provided is a digital stethoscope capable of outputting a heart sound data and/or a therapeutic data. The digital stethoscope includes a housing, a physiological data acquisition unit configured to acquire the heart sound data, a therapeutic data unit providing the therapeutic data and an output unit configured to output heart sound data and/or therapeutic data, wherein the physiological data acquisition unit and the therapeutic data unit are provided within the housing.
Claims18
A digital stethoscope, comprising:
- a housing;
- a physiological data acquisition unit configured to acquire a signal comprising a heart sound data, the physiological data acquisition unit comprising a detection unit and a processing unit, wherein the processing unit is configured to process the signal detected in the detection unit for improving a quality of the signal;
- a therapeutic data unit providing a therapeutic data, the therapeutic data unit comprising a memory unit configured to store the therapeutic data;
- an output unit configured to output heart sound data and therapeutic data;
- a communication unit configured to receive the therapeutic data from an external device;
- and
- a controller being connected to the physiological data acquisition unit to receive heart sound data, the controller is further connected to the therapeutic data unit to receive the therapeutic data from the therapeutic data unit and the controller is connected to the output unit to output heart sound data and therapeutic data,
- wherein the physiological data acquisition unit, the controller, and the therapeutic data unit are provided within the housing,
- wherein the controller is configured to automatically select therapeutic data for being output based on the acquired heart sound data,
- wherein the therapeutic data comprises a therapeutic audio text selected by a user on the external device to improve or enhance or influence the physical and/or mental state of the user, the therapeutic audio text comprising text modules that motivate the user, focus the user, relax the user, bring psychophysiological coherence to the user, or any combination thereof,
- wherein the heart sound data and the therapeutic data are simultaneously outputted by the output unit, the output unit being a loudspeaker or an earphone, and
- wherein during the listening to the therapeutic audio text, the controller is configured to determine an effect of the therapeutic audio text played for a present mental state of the user, and, if the controller determines that an effect is not achieved after a preset period of time, the digital stethoscope is configured to output a message.
A system comprising the digital stethoscope and an external device communicating with the digital stethoscope, wherein the digital stethoscope comprises:
- a housing;
- a physiological data acquisition unit configured to acquire a heart sound data, the physiological data acquisition unit comprising a detection unit and a processing unit, wherein the processing unit is configured to process the signal detected in the detection unit for improving a quality of the signal;
- a therapeutic data unit providing a therapeutic data, the therapeutic data unit comprising a memory unit configured to store the therapeutic data;
- an output unit configured to output heart sound data and therapeutic data;
- a communication unit configured to receive the therapeutic data from an external device;
- and
- a controller being connected to the physiological data acquisition unit to receive heart sound data, the controller is further connected to the therapeutic data unit to receive the therapeutic data from the therapeutic data unit and the controller is connected to the output unit to output heart sound data and therapeutic data,
- wherein the physiological data acquisition unit, the controller, and the therapeutic data unit are provided within the housing,
- wherein the controller is configured to automatically select therapeutic data for being output based on the acquired heart sound data, wherein the therapeutic data comprises a therapeutic audio text that is selected by a user on the external device and configured to improve, enhance, or influence the physical and/or mental state of a user, the therapeutic audio text comprising text modules that motivate the user, focus the user, relax the user, bring psychophysiological coherence to the user, or any combination thereof,
- wherein the heart sound data and the therapeutic data are simultaneously outputted by the output unit, the output unit being a loudspeaker or an earphone,
- wherein during the listening to the therapeutic audio text, the controller is configured to determine an effect of the therapeutic audio text played for a present mental state of the user, and, if the controller determines that an effect is not achieved after a preset period of time, the digital stethoscope is configured to output a message;
- and wherein the external device further comprises:
- a communication unit configured to communicate with the digital stethoscope;
- and
- a storage unit for storing the heart sound data and/or the therapeutic data.
