TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to physical diagnosis and treatment, and more particularly, to an apparatus for performing physical diagnosis and treatment and a garment having the apparatus.

In general, in order to diagnose a patient's body, a patient must visit a hospital and be diagnosed through diagnostic equipment. In addition, the doctor should be treated according to the diagnosis result. As such, the existing methods of diagnosis and treatment have problems such as the inconvenience of having to travel to the hospital every time and the risk of life in case of an emergency, and the problem of having to take care of many patients directly. there was.

In recent years, due to the development of sensors, devices for diagnosing a human body are miniaturized and lightened. In other words, miniaturized equipment for diagnosing a physical condition by measuring body temperature, pulse rate, and respiratory rate has been developed. As a result, a user can easily diagnose his or her physical condition anytime, anywhere by learning how to use it.

However, the conventional diagnostic apparatus can only diagnose the current state of the body and cannot perform any treatment according to the diagnosis result. For example, when the body suddenly heats, it is possible to detect heat generated in the body through a heat sensor, but there is no means for treating the body to lower the heat. Of course, a miniaturized communication means may be provided to transmit diagnostic information to a remotely located doctor so that the doctor recognizes it. However, since the doctor is remotely located, there is still the inconvenience that the patient has to come to the hospital where the doctor is located in order to receive the treatment according to the diagnostic information or the doctor must come and go directly. If the patient is an emergency patient in need of emergency treatment, a life-threatening situation may occur if the urgent treatment is not provided.

In addition, problems of current general treatment are as follows. Long-term medications for the treatment of specific areas of the person can lead to complications such as gastrointestinal disorders. In addition, local hematoma or allergic reaction may be caused by injections. Therefore, non-irritating, bloodless, non-invasive treatment is necessary for elderly patients who need attention for treatment.

Conventional treatments such as oral synthetic drugs, intramuscular injections, intravenous injections may inject drugs to treat the lesion, but may cause side effects throughout the body. In addition, taping, creams, pastes, etc. are absorbed by the skin and thus cannot be used in people with contact allergies.

In addition, acupuncture is a major treatment tool of oriental medicine with a long history, but it often causes problems such as irritation and infection on the skin.

In addition, it is common to focus on the treatment of only the diseased area, and to treat one site at the same time in rare cases. At the same time, the nerve (nerve system), acupuncture points (meridian system), various receptors, muscles, cerebrospinal fluid, lymphatic system, skull, blood vessels (cardiovascular system) can be used as a simultaneous treatment method, but when the front of the human body is difficult to treat at the same time Has problems, and no therapeutic equipment has been developed for them.

In addition, in the case of physiotherapy, it is impossible to visit the patients who are constrained by time, space, environment, etc., and people who are continuously exposed to harmful environment are actually required There is difficulty. Of course, in recent years, portable physical diagnosis and treatment devices have been developed and sold, but the general public without accurate medical knowledge cannot use the physical diagnosis and treatment devices efficiently, and it is difficult to treat many parts at the same time. have.

In addition, due to the medical conditions that require the treatment of many patients in a short period of time, the development of a device that can perform the treatment and treatment assistant role of the doctor in order to effectively utilize the treatment time and maximize the treatment efficiency.

1 is a block diagram showing a diagnostic treatment apparatus for performing physical diagnosis and treatment according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, the diagnostic treatment apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention may include a diagnosis unit 10-1, 10-2,..., 10-m, hereinafter 10, and a treatment medium generator 20-1. 20-2, ..., 20-n, 20 or less), the storage unit 30, the communication unit 40 and the control unit 50.

The diagnosis unit 10 performs a function of measuring a body signal of the body. Biological signals may include electrocardiogram, blood pressure, pulse rate, body temperature, respiration rate, oxygen saturation, and the like. Accordingly, the diagnostic unit 10 may include a sensor (eg, an infrared temperature sensor) for measuring body temperature, a sensor (eg, a pressure sensor) for measuring a pulse, an electrocardiogram, and a blood pressure, and the like for measuring a respiratory rate. Various sensors, such as a sensor and the sensor for measuring oxygen saturation, can be included. Here, the sensor for measuring each bio-signal is currently developed, or it will be more apparent through the following description that all the sensors to be developed in the future can be equally applied.

The treatment medium generating unit 20 performs a function of releasing the treatment medium to various treatment points of the body. Therapeutic media can include lasers, vibrations, frequencies, rays, electricity, magnetic fields, fragrances, and the like. That is, the treatment medium generating unit 20 discharges the treatment medium so as to stimulate mechanical receptors (tactile, tack), temperature receptors (cooling, warming), and harmful receptors (painful) of the body.

Therefore, when a person wears a diagnostic treatment device according to the present invention (the treatment medium may be provided in a garment according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, see FIG. 3), at least one treatment medium generating unit 20 may be Release the treatment medium at the location corresponding to the treatment point. Treatment points include the nervous system, meridians, various receptors, muscular system, cerebrospinal fluid, lymphatic system, skull, cardiovascular system and all other lesions. That is, the position of the body for all treatments such as bruises, diseases, wounds, fractures. Organ-nutrition-acupuncture points-various reflex points-nerve-vascular-lymphatic-muscular fascia and the like have mutual therapeutic effects.

The treatment medium generator 20 may emit only one treatment medium, or may be configured to emit a plurality of treatment media (eg, laser and frequency).

Treatment points, including various reflection points of the human body, show similar therapeutic effects to different stimuli (eg, laser, vibration, friction, etc.). When using frequencies in the treatment medium, certain frequency bands have a therapeutic effect on specific tissues. For example, 2 Hz (Hertz) is nerve regeneration, 7 Hz is skeletal growth, 10 Hz is ligament healing, 15 Hz is reduced skin necrosis, 20 Hz is capillary formation stimulation, 72 Hz is fibroblast proliferation, 25 to 50 Hz is a neuropathic synergistic effect Has

Electricity in the treatment medium can achieve the same effect as using physiotherapy equipment, and use electricity to stimulate treatment points such as acupuncture points.

Acupuncture points, such as acupuncture points and meridians, commonly used in oriental medicine, can be used.

It is known that there are 14 meridian systems of meridians and collaterals and approximately 361 meridian points in the human body. Meridian is a passage through which chi, and acupuncture points in the middle of the gathering place is a suitable location for saliva or moxibustion. Therefore, it is obvious that acupuncture points can be a treatment point, and of course, all positions of the body which are helpful for treatment besides acupuncture points can be used as a treatment point.

As described above, in oriental medicine, diseases such as acupuncture are mainly treated by stimulating acupuncture points using acupuncture or moxibustion, but according to the present invention, the same or similar effects can be obtained through treatment media such as a constant frequency, vibration, laser, electricity, and magnetic field. Can be obtained.

As the release of the treatment medium to the upper and lower body treatment points, a garment mainly equipped with a diagnostic treatment device such as an inner or outer garment may be used. The hand is a glove, a foot is a shoe, a neck is a neckerchief or a polati, and a head is a hat. Clothing having a diagnostic treatment apparatus may be used to correspond to each treatment point using the back.

The storage unit 30 stores the treatment data. The treatment data is data for controlling the treatment medium generating unit 20 to release the treatment medium to the corresponding treatment point in response to the biosignal measured by the diagnosis unit 10. That is, the treatment data may be a set of instructions that may be performed by the controller 50 controlling the operation of the treatment medium generator 20.

In addition, the storage unit 30 may store treatment data related to various diseases. For example, although not shown in the drawing, treatment data corresponding to a disease name (or identification information for recognizing a disease) input through a separately provided input module and a disease name (identification information) input according to a treatment execution command are provided. Extracted from the storage unit 30, the operation of the treatment medium generating unit 20 is controlled. Therefore, the user can be conveniently treated by the diagnostic treatment apparatus according to the present invention by inputting only the disease name (or identification information). In addition, the treatment medium release may be manipulated from time to time through preset treatment data according to a particular situation (eg, a predetermined time, etc.).

The communication unit 40 is a means for communicating with an external device, and may include, for example, a short range wireless communication module such as Bluetooth or Zigbee for performing short range wireless communication with the external device. In addition, the communication unit 40 may include a wireless communication module such as a wireless LAN, a mobile communication module, and perform wireless communication with an external device through a communication network such as a mobile communication network or a wireless internet network. Therefore, the diagnostic treatment apparatus according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention is a remote device (for example, a doctor's computer, etc.) remotely located by the communication unit 40 to transmit biosignal information of the body diagnosed through the diagnosis unit 10. 2), and transmits the treatment information according to the biosignal information from the remote device, and immediately releases the treatment medium through the treatment medium generator 20 using the received treatment information. have. Therefore, the diagnostic treatment apparatus may store the information received from the remote specific apparatus in the storage unit 30 and use the treatment data.

The controller 50 measures or diagnoses the body's biological signal at any time (for example, every 10 minutes) or according to a command input from the user, and releases the treatment medium to a corresponding treatment point when there is an abnormality in the diagnosis result. The diagnostic unit 10, the treatment medium generating unit 20, and the storage unit 30 are controlled. That is, the controller 50 compares the bio signal measured by the diagnosis unit 10 with the normal bio signal stored in advance, and determines whether there is an abnormality of the body according to the measured bio signal, and when it is determined that there is an error, The treatment data is extracted to control the treatment medium generator 20 to release the corresponding treatment medium. Here, since the plurality of diagnosis units 10 may be provided according to each biosignal such as blood pressure and pulse rate, the controller 50 may recognize the diagnosis unit 10 (or the corresponding biosignal type) that transmits the biosignal. It should be possible. Therefore, if the diagnosis unit 10 and the control unit 50 are wirelessly coupled (see FIG. 3), the diagnosis unit 10 may identify identification information of the corresponding biological signal or identification information of the diagnosis unit 10. It is preferable to transmit the biosignal information including the to the controller 50.

In addition, the controller 50 extracts the treatment data corresponding to the input signal according to the identification information for identifying the treatment data such as the disease name input through the provided input unit (not shown) from the storage unit 30 to treat the treatment medium. The input unit, the storage unit 30 and the treatment medium generating unit 20 are controlled to emit light. Here, the input unit described above may be equally applied to all input means such as a touch screen, an infrared port for receiving an infrared signal from an external remote controller, as well as a button type input means such as a keypad. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art.

Here, the user may control the functional operation of the diagnostic treatment apparatus using the input unit. For example, the user may cause the diagnostic function of the diagnostic treatment device to be stopped through the input unit before the exercise. This is to prevent the heat generated during exercise from diagnosing abnormalities in the biological signal. In addition to the above-described examples, it will be obvious that various methods of controlling the functional operation of the diagnostic treatment apparatus using the input unit may be implemented.

In addition, as described above, the controller 50 may control the communication unit 40 to perform data communication through a communication network with a remote device. That is, the controller 50 transmits the diagnosed biosignal to a remote device according to a predefined or user input (for example, remote device identification information such as a phone number, IP address, or URL for communication with the remote device). And control the diagnosis unit 10, the treatment medium generator 20, and the communication unit 40 to receive data such as treatment information from a remote device, and store the received treatment information in the storage unit 30. Can be used as treatment data.

Here, the diagnostic treatment apparatus according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention releases the treatment medium according to the diagnosed biosignal to perform treatment, and it is more preferable that the diagnosis unit 10 continuously measures the biosignal at a predetermined time period. If the biological signal does not return normally even when the biological signal is released and the treatment medium is released, the emergency signal is determined and the information is determined in advance by a remote device (for example, a doctor in charge, a fire station, a hospital, etc.). Communication terminal such as a mobile phone or a computer). Therefore, the diagnostic treatment apparatus may receive treatment information according to the emergency situation from a doctor in charge through a communication network and release a treatment medium corresponding to the treatment point using the received treatment information.

Here, although each component of the diagnostic treatment apparatus is illustrated as being composed of one device, each component may be combined by wire or wirelessly. For example, the treatment medium generator may be separately provided to release the treatment medium as the control signal is wirelessly received from the controller 50.

Hereinafter, an example of the entire system for the diagnostic treatment apparatus releasing the physical diagnosis and the treatment medium according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described.

2 is a schematic diagram of an entire system for releasing a physical diagnosis and treatment medium in accordance with one preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, the entire system includes a diagnostic treatment device including one or more diagnostic devices 200, a controller 240, one or more treatment medium generators 220, and an external remote device 260.

The diagnostic apparatus 200 is a device for performing the function of the diagnostic unit 10 described above with reference to FIG. 1 and includes various sensors for measuring a biological signal such as an infrared temperature sensor 201. As shown in the figure, the diagnostic apparatus 200 is implemented in the shape of a headphone, the infrared temperature sensor 201 is attached to the portion where the ear contacts, it is possible to measure the temperature of the body. Of course, the infrared temperature sensor 201 for measuring the temperature of the body as a diagnostic sensor was used, but it is obvious that the corresponding respective sensors for measuring the pulse, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, etc. may be equally applied.

The diagnostic apparatus 200 may be connected to the controller 240 by wire, or may be wirelessly coupled through a short range wireless communication module such as Bluetooth or Zigbee.

The treatment medium generator 220 serves to perform the function of the treatment medium generator 20 described above, and emits a treatment medium such as a laser, a frequency, or a scent under the control of the controller 240. Therapeutic medium generator 220 may include a receiver (eg, an RF receiver) for receiving a control signal for releasing the therapeutic medium from the controller 240. That is, the treatment medium generator 220 may include a short range wireless communication module for performing wireless communication with the controller 240 similarly to the diagnosis apparatus 200.

In addition, the treatment medium generator 220 may include a power supply unit for receiving electric power such as a lithium ion battery, a solar cell, and the like. Alternatively, according to one preferred embodiment of the present invention, power for releasing the treatment medium may be received from the controller 240 using RFID technology. The method using RFID technology will be described later.

In addition, the treatment medium generator 220 may be provided to correspond to all treatment points of a person, such as menstrual blood, or may be provided only at treatment points for a specific disease. This is to reduce waste of unnecessary resources.

The treatment medium generator 220 is controlled to be in an off state when it is not necessary to not apply unnecessary stimuli such as electromagnetic waves to the treatment point and the human body.

The controller 240 is a device for performing the functions of the input unit (not shown), the communication unit 40, the storage unit 30, and the control unit 50 described above with reference to FIG. 1. The controller 240 may include a transmitter (eg, an RF module) that transmits a control signal for controlling the treatment medium generator 220 that releases the treatment medium. The controller 50 of the controller 240 may have identification information about a treatment point of the body and each treatment medium generator 220 corresponding to each treatment point, and thus may control each treatment medium generator 220. .

The remote device is a mobile device such as a mobile phone, a portable digital assistant (PDA), or a communication device with a personal computer (PC). Accordingly, the doctor may perform wireless communication through a communication network using his remote device to receive diagnostic information including a biosignal diagnosed by the diagnostic treatment device, and may be diagnosed by the controller 240 of the diagnostic treatment device. And treatment.

According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the diagnostic apparatus 200 and the treatment medium generator 220 may be provided in the garment. Here, the garment is wearable or in contact with the body of a person, including accessories such as socks, gloves, hair bands, bands, shawls, waistbands, scarves, hats, watches, shoes, as well as general clothes such as pants, coats and underwear. It's an all-inclusive concept.

3 is a view showing a garment having a means for releasing the physical diagnosis and treatment medium according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3, a garment 300 and a diagnostic device 200 including one or more diagnostic devices 200 for measuring a body signal of a body and a treatment medium generator 220 for releasing the treatment medium to a treatment point. And a controller 240 for controlling the treatment medium generator 220 is shown.

According to one preferred embodiment of the present invention, the diagnostic device 200 located to correspond to the heart, ankle, etc. measures the electrocardiogram, the diagnostic device 200 located to correspond to the wrist measures the blood pressure, although not shown in the figure The diagnostic apparatus 200 positioned to correspond to the fingertip portion of the glove may measure oxygen saturation and pulse rate.

According to the present embodiment, since only the diagnostic apparatus 200 and the treatment medium generator 220 are provided in the garment 300, the user may not feel great inconvenience in wearing clothes. In addition, by using the controller 240 provided separately, the operation of the diagnostic apparatus 200 and the treatment medium generator 220 may be controlled more wirelessly.

Here, since the treatment medium for stimulating the treatment point can give a great effect of treatment with only a very small amount, the treatment medium generator 220 may be formed in a micro or nano size, in which case the treatment point is a treatment medium. Since it may be larger than the generator 220, it is preferable that a plurality of treatment medium generators 220 correspond to one treatment point. When the plurality of treatment medium generators 220 corresponds to one treatment point, the strength or weakness of the treatment medium may be adjusted by controlling the number of the treatment medium generators 220 releasing the treatment medium.

Therapeutic medium generator 220 is attached between the lining of the garment 300, i.e. between the cloth and the cloth, rather than in direct contact with the skin of a person, for non-invasive, non-irritating, analgesic, bloodless, ideal treatment or therapeutic assistance function. It is preferable.

The controller 240 wirelessly controls the diagnostic apparatus 200 and the treatment medium generator 220 provided in the garment 300. According to the ubiquitous technology that is still being developed, the treatment medium generator 220 itself may wirelessly communicate with each other, and thus, the user may control each treatment medium generator 220 wirelessly using the controller 240. Can be. In addition, each treatment medium generator 220 may be controlled to release the treatment medium without separately supplying power.

For example, the treatment medium generator 220 may be formed of an electronic tag, such as a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag. Electronic tags are classified into passive tags, semi-active tags, and active tags according to how they are powered. These are internally powered by batteries, or externally. It depends on whether the power is driven by the RF signal. The passive tag consists of a chip with memory, a limited amount of logic, an antenna, and a type of chip and a board on which the antenna is mounted, which draws energy from a specific signal, uses this energy to power the chip, Send your own signal. Therefore, when using a passive tag, as a specific signal (frequency) is received from an external device (for example, the controller 240), energy is released to release the treatment medium. Of course, in this case, since the amount of energy can be extremely fine, it may be desirable to be used in the micro or nano size therapeutic medium generator 220.

In addition, the treatment medium generator 220 may be supplied with power from a solar energy generator (not shown) separately provided in the garment 300, or the treatment medium generator 220 may use solar energy by itself. It may be formed so as to. Since a lot of developments have been made in the current method of securing solar energy, any one of them can be applied without limitation, so detailed description thereof will be omitted.

According to an exemplary embodiment, when the treatment medium generator 220 uses the above-described RFID tag, each treatment medium generator 220 may be formed to respond to a signal of a specific frequency band. That is, by allowing only the treatment medium generator 220 corresponding to the RF signal of the specific frequency band emitted from the controller 240 among the plurality of treatment medium generators 220 to emit the treatment medium, the user may use the controller 240 to generate the desired treatment medium. Release of the treatment medium to the treatment point. For example, when the treatment medium is to be discharged to a treatment point located at the shoulder region, the controller 240 recognizes the response frequency band of the treatment medium generator 220 corresponding to the treatment point and emits the frequency of the frequency band. To operate the treatment medium generator 220. In another embodiment, rather than distinguishing the treatment medium generator 220 to operate over a frequency band, each treatment medium generator 220 has identification information (eg, a serial number) and is identified from the controller 240. Upon receiving the control signal including the information, the treatment medium generator 220 corresponding to the identification information is operated. Of course, each treatment medium generator 220 should be able to recognize the identification information included in the control signal received from the controller 240.

Here, since the diagnostic apparatus 200 and the treatment medium generator 220 are provided in the garment 300 as described above, it is preferable that a durable material is used so as not to be damaged even when washing the garment 300.

In addition, the controller 240 may be similar to a remote controller of a general home appliance, or may be provided with a function provided in a mobile terminal such as a PC, a mobile phone, a PCS, a PDA, and the like.

4 is a view showing the operation of the diagnostic treatment apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 4, in operation 410, the diagnostic treatment apparatus measures a body signal of a body according to a predetermined time period or a command input from a user. That is, the diagnostic treatment apparatus measures the biosignal of the body temperature, pulse rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, etc. through various sensors such as a temperature sensor and a pressure sensor.

In operation 420, the diagnostic treatment apparatus compares the measured biosignal with a normal biosignal in a predetermined normal range, and diagnoses a body abnormality.

If there is no abnormality as a result of the diagnosis, the process may proceed to step 410.

If it is diagnosed as a body abnormality, the diagnostic treatment apparatus performs a treatment corresponding to the biosignal determined as the body abnormality in step 430. That is, the diagnostic treatment device extracts the corresponding prestored treatment data to cause the corresponding treatment medium generator 220 to release the treatment medium. Here, it is desirable to continuously measure the body's biological signal at regular time intervals even while releasing the therapeutic medium. Therefore, the diagnostic treatment apparatus may perform treatment for a predetermined number of times (for example, 2-3 times) until a normal biosignal is measured.

In operation 440, the diagnostic treatment apparatus re-diagnoses whether or not a normal bio-signal is measured after the treatment is completed by re-diagnosing a body abnormality according to the re-measured bio-signal. In operation 450, when the normal biosignal is not measured, the diagnostic treatment apparatus transmits the diagnostic information including the measured biosignal to a predetermined external remote device (eg, a portable terminal of the attending physician) through a communication network.

In addition, the diagnostic treatment apparatus may transmit a rescue request message to an emergency treatment center such as a hospital or a fire station according to the diagnosis result. For example, if the measured body temperature is more than about 40 degrees or more than 3 minutes, it is determined as a dangerous situation and automatically sends a rescue request message to the emergency treatment center. Of course, when the diagnostic treatment apparatus is provided with a location measuring means such as GPS, the location request message may include location information for a smooth rescue request.

In operation 460, when the diagnostic treatment apparatus receives treatment information based on the transmitted diagnostic information from the remote device, the diagnosis treatment apparatus performs treatment according to the treatment information received in operation 470. In this case, the treatment information may include treatment data for controlling the treatment medium generator 220 or identification information for extracting treatment data stored in advance in the diagnostic treatment apparatus. Therefore, the diagnostic treatment apparatus according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention can provide treatment by a specialist such as a doctor located remotely when a body abnormality is diagnosed, so that the user can easily cope with an emergency situation, and more professionally. Emergency treatment can be performed.

Thereafter, if a normal body signal is not measured and the body abnormality is continuously diagnosed, as described above, the diagnostic treatment apparatus preferably transmits a rescue request message to the emergency rescue center.

5 is a diagram illustrating a table of normal biosignals according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating controlling the operation of a treatment medium generator to correspond to a measured biosignal according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing treatment data, and FIG. 7 is a diagram showing treatment data for controlling an operation of a treatment medium generator to correspond to a disease according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

5 shows a normal biosignal table representing a normal biosignal.

The diagnostic treatment device recognizes a high fever when the temperature of the measured biosignal becomes 38 degrees Celsius or more, and releases a treatment medium corresponding to the treatment point of the corresponding body to lower the temperature.

Likewise, when the body temperature is measured to 35 degrees Celsius or less, the diagnostic treatment device diagnoses with cold and performs a corresponding treatment.

In the case of blood pressure, if the blood pressure is less than 80mmHg, it is recognized as hypertension when 120mmHg or more, and when the oxygen saturation or pulse rate is out of the normal range, it is recognized as an abnormal state, and the diagnostic treatment device performs the corresponding treatment.

The above-described settled biosignal table is merely an example, and it will be apparent that the changed numerical value may not only be applied as a normal biosignal but also various other biosignals such as respiratory rate may be equally applied.

Referring to FIG. 6, the treatment data may include a treatment point field 610, a treatment medium field 620, an operation time field 630, and an intensity field 640. The serial number (identification number) according to each treatment point is written in the treatment point field 610 (identification information for the treatment medium generator 220 may be entered), and the treatment medium field 620 is the treatment to be released. For medium information, the operating time field 630 has time information at which the treatment medium is released, and the intensity field 640 has intensity information of the treatment medium being released at the treatment point. The intensity information may be intensity information of the treatment medium emitted from one treatment medium generator 220, or when a plurality of treatment medium generators 220 correspond to one treatment point, the treatment medium generator to release the treatment medium. Information about the number 220 may be used. For example, if 8 bits are allocated to the intensity information, the treatment data may include information about 256 kinds of intensity.

The treatment data according to the example of FIG. 6 is that the treatment medium generator 220 corresponding to the treatment point 02 emits a laser for 5 seconds so that the treatment medium has the intensity of 5.

Here, even when the same biological signal is measured, when a person wearing the diagnostic treatment apparatus according to the present invention has a specific disease, a case corresponding to the disease may need to be performed. Therefore, the treatment data may be implemented to correspond to each disease, it is preferable that different treatment data according to the bio-signals measured for each disease is provided. Therefore, a person wearing the diagnostic treatment apparatus according to the present invention can use the diagnostic treatment apparatus provided with the treatment data corresponding to the disease he has, and thus can receive more effective treatment.

If the treatment data according to a plurality of diseases is provided in the diagnosis treatment apparatus, the user may input information about the disease at the time of input of the treatment command and receive treatment corresponding to the disease.

In addition, according to another embodiment, the diagnostic treatment apparatus may diagnose a disease by using the measured body signal. For ease of understanding, for example, when blood pressure is high and oxygen saturation is abnormally measured (ie, abnormal values (eg, Q waves) appear on the electrocardiogram), the diagnostic treatment device may lead to myocardial infarction. Diagnosis can be performed to extract and use treatment data according to the corresponding disease to perform the corresponding treatment. Therefore, the diagnostic treatment apparatus should store information for recognizing a disease according to each biosignal in advance. Alternatively, the diagnostic treatment apparatus may transmit corresponding diagnosis information to an external remote apparatus in real time, and recognize the disease through the treatment information received from the remote apparatus.

The resulting treatment data format is shown in FIG. 7. Referring to FIG. 7, the treatment data may include a disease name field 710, a treatment medium generator 220 field 715, a treatment medium field 720, and an operation time field 725.

The disease name field 710 has information about the type of disease, and the treatment medium generator 220 field 715 has identification information (number) that can identify one of the plurality of treatment medium generators 220 (of course, , The treatment medium field 720 has information on the type of treatment medium to be released, and the operation time field 725 has time information at which the treatment medium is released. Of course, the intensity field 640 may be further included as shown in FIG. 6.

Therefore, when an abnormality is found in the measured biosignal, the diagnostic treatment apparatus may recognize a disease according to the corresponding biosignal and extract and use the treatment data corresponding to the corresponding disease.

Of course, it is also possible to receive information on the disease from the user, it is natural that treatment data according to the input disease information can be extracted and used. That is, the controller 240 controlling the operation of the treatment medium generator 220 recognizes the disease name corresponding to the input signal input through the input unit, and operates the treatment medium generator 220 according to the corresponding treatment data. Can be controlled. The treatment medium generator 220 receives the control signal according to the treatment medium and the operating time and performs the corresponding treatment.

Here, if the treatment medium generator 220 can release only one treatment medium, the treatment medium field 720 may not be necessary because each treatment medium generator 220 generates a unique treatment medium.

It will be appreciated that the treatment data described with reference to FIG. 6 or 7 may be used in each configuration, and may be used according to the method of combining the respective fields. In addition, it is natural that treatment data is used in a data format different from the above-described format, and does not deviate significantly from the characteristics of the present invention using the treatment data.
