CA 2048688

A process for measuring vibrations, especially nervous trembling in living organisms, and a device for implementing said process. The device consists of a sensor (1) which converts the vibrations into an electric signal processed by an electronic circuit (2) making it possible to either display the result (3) or to transmit said result to other apparatus (recording devices, computer, etc.). The different elements, sensor (1), electronic circuit (2) and display (3), may or may not be all contained within the same housing (4). Said process and device serve essentially for measuring the degree of irritability (stress) for use by the general public, for medical checks on patients under supervision for neurological problems (Parkinson's disease, senile trembling, etc.) and for laboratory checks to measure trembling in living organisms, in particular humans and mice, in varied circumstances and especially after injection or ingestion of certain substances (neuro-active medication, food modified by heat or cold, by the addition of food additives, by irradiation etc.).

L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif pour la mise en oeuvre de ce procédé permettant la mesure de vibrations, et plus particulièrement la mesure du tremblement nerveux des organismes vivants. Le dispositif comporte un capteur (1) qui transforme les vibrations en signal électrique traité par un circuit électronique (2) permettant soit l'affichage du résultat (3), soit la transmission de ce résultat vers d'autres appareils (enregistreurs, ordinateur...). Les différents éléments: capteur (1), circuit électronique (2) et affichage (3) peuvent être ou non réunis dans un même boîtier (4). Le procédé et le dispositif selon l'invention sont particulièrement destinés au contrôle du degré de nervosité (stress) pour le grand public, à des mesures médicales de patients suivis pour des troubles neurologiques (maladie de Parkinson, tremblements séniles... ) et à des mesures de laboratoire permettant de mesurer le tremblement d'organismes vivants, notamment des hommes et des souris, dans diverses circonstances et notamment après injection ou ingestion de certaines substances (médicaments neuro-actifs, aliments dénaturés par la chaleur, par le froid, par adjonction d'additifs alimentaires, par irradiation...).
