摘要
新兴的物联网技术推动了可穿戴健康监测设备的快速发展.目前,医学超声技术在严重慢性疾病的长时间监测方面具有广阔的应用前景.然而,商用超声探头一般都是刚性的,需要手持,难以满足医疗可穿戴设备对柔性化、小型化和舒适性的要求.本文提出了一种可编织、可穿戴的聚合物超声换能器,该换能器由匹配层、背衬层和压电层组成.聚合物压电材料的带宽(93％)是压电陶瓷的7倍,并且可以承受超过10,000次的弯曲和扭曲变形.该传感器能监测颈动脉血液流速,心脏血液流速和心脏血管的血管厚度,并具有与商用探头相当的信噪比.它的宽带特性(3.68-10.08 MHz)使其能通过调整频率来监测不同的组织.可编织超声换能器可以制成纤维形式,并编织成透气织物,在不牺牲穿戴舒适性的情况下进行实时血管监测.
Abstract
The rise of Internet of Things technologies has promoted the rapid advancement of wearable health mon-itoring devices.While medical ultrasound technology holds promise for long-term monitoring to detect critical chronic diseases,current commercial ultrasound probes often lack the flexibility,miniaturization,and comfort necessary for medical wearable devices.To address this gap,we propose a weavable and wearable polymer ultrasonic transducer comprising a matching layer,a backing layer,and a piezoelectric layer.This transducer exhibits a bandwidth of 93％,which is six times that of transducers made from piezoelectric ceramics,and could withstand over 10,000 cycles of bending and twisting de-formations.The transducer successfully monitors blood flow velocity and measures vessel thickness in the carotid artery and cardiac vessel,achieving a signal-to-noise ratio compar-able to that of commercial probes.Its wideband property,with a bandwidth of 3.68-10.08 MHz,allows for the monitoring of various tissues through frequency adjustment.Furthermore,the weavable ultrasonic transducer in fiber form is seamlessly integrated into breathable textiles for real-time cardiovascular monitoring without compromising comfort.
