BumBuddy是一款針對現代人與高齡族群便祕問題所設計的智慧型非藥物介入裝置。長期久坐、壓力累積與作息不規律,會透過腸腦軸影響自律神經,導致腸道蠕動減緩、血液與淋巴循環不良,進而造成糞便乾硬、長期滯留甚至糞便嵌塞。研究顯示,全球慢性便祕盛行率超過10%,且近80%的患者往往在多次不適後才尋求解決方案,顯示日常預防與早期介入的重要性。
BumBuddy 以感測定位+主動介入為核心,整合5–12 MHz超音波掃描與人體電阻感測技術。系統可透過中頻超音波辨識腸道輪廓與糞便滯留區域,並以高頻超音波定位腹部表淺淋巴結位置,同時利用皮膚電阻變化偵測穴位分布,建立個人化腹部生理地圖。在定位完成後,裝置啟動多點凸起按摩模組,模擬手指指壓節奏,沿腸道走向進行分區震動與變頻刺激,達到推動糞便、刺激穴位與促進淋巴引流之效果,並依即時感測數據動態調整作用強度與範圍。
本產品透過非侵入式方式整合腸道、神經與循環系統調節機制,提供一種安全、可長期使用的便祕改善方案,協助使用者建立規律排便習慣,提升生活品質與自理能力。
BumBuddy is a smart, non-pharmacological device designed to relieve constipation in modern and aging populations. Prolonged sitting, stress, and irregular lifestyles disrupt the gut–brain axis, reducing intestinal motility and causing stool retention. With over 10% global prevalence, early daily intervention is essential.
BumBuddy integrates 5–12 MHz ultrasound and bioelectrical impedance sensing to locate fecal buildup, lymph nodes, and acupoints. It delivers multi-point, finger-like vibration along the intestinal pathway to promote peristalsis, stimulate acupoints, and support lymphatic drainage, with intensity adjusted in real time.
Non-invasive and easy to use, it helps users restore regular bowel habits and improve quality of life.
