    Abstract: A mechanical chest compression system for performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation includes a resuscitation device and a controller operatively coupled to the resuscitation device. The resuscitation device includes a base, a contact portion configured to be in a superposed relation with an anterior surface of a patient when the patient is disposed on the base, and a force sensor configured to generate a force signal during compression and decompression of the anterior surface of the patient. In particular, the contact portion is movable relative to the base to provide compression and decompression to the anterior surface of the patient. The controller includes a processor configured to receive the force signal generated by the force sensor; estimate chest compliance relationship using the force signal; and generate instructions using the chest compliance relationship to drive the contact portion to provide compression and decompression to the anterior surface of the patient.

    Abstract: A system for assisting with cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) includes an active compression decompression (ACD) device configured for a user to push downward and pull upward on a chest of a patient, a sensor to measure force applied to the chest of the patient, a sensor configured to measure displacement of the chest of the patient, one or more processors, and a user interface. The processor is configured to configured to execute computer-executable instructions to determine a maximum compression force applied to the chest of the patient during a compression cycle and a maximum decompression force applied to the chest of the patient during the compression cycle, estimate a displacement value for a total displacement of the chest of the patient during the compression cycle for compressing and decompressing the chest of the patient, and estimate at least one of a compression depth and a decompression displacement for the compression cycle.

    Abstract: Systems and methods related to the field of cardiac resuscitation, and in particular to devices for assisting rescuers in performing cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) are described herein. The system includes a chest compression device having force sensing capabilities, for providing feedback in enhancing the quality of acute care. The force sensor(s) may exhibit varying resolutions over different dynamic force ranges, for example, to provide information helpful to the resuscitative treatment. Chest compression devices that are able to sense force may be able to assist a system in providing accurate chest compression depth and rate information, as well as assess the amount of work exerted by one or more rescuers during the course of resuscitation. Force sensors described herein may employ relatively inexpensive components, such as pressure sensors, emitters, optical detectors, simple circuit boards, springs, compliant/resilient materials, electrically resistive layers, force-sensitive materials, amongst other suitable parts.

    Abstract: A system is provided for integrating at least one portable computing device with a resuscitative medical device such as a defibrillator. The system may include a carrying case coupled to the resuscitative medical device. The carrying case may include a storage space for the at least one portable computing device and a wireless charging system for charging the at least one portable computing device. The system may be configured to enable secure data transfer between each of the devices, including data communication and data storage. A processor of the resuscitative medical device may be configured to activate the wireless charging system and charge the at least one portable computing device under certain circumstances. The processor may further be configured to prioritize or optimize charging and data transfer between the resuscitative medical device and each of multiple portable computing devices.

    Abstract: A system for facilitating resuscitation includes: a first electrode assembly having a therapy side and a first motion sensor; a second electrode assembly having a therapy side and a second motion sensor; processing circuitry operatively connected to and programmed to receive and process signals from the first and second motion sensors to estimate at least one of a chest compression depth and rate during administration of chest compressions and to compare the chest compression depth or rate to a desired range; and an output device for providing instructions to a user to administer chest compressions based on the comparison of the estimated chest compression depth or rate to the desired range. One or both of the electrode assemblies may be constructed so that the conductive therapeutic portion is able to maintain substantial conformance to the anatomy of the patient when coupled thereto. For example, at least a portion of the flexible electrode pad may be able to flex from a more rigid sensor housing, or the sensor housing itself may be relatively small compared to the flexible electrode pad so as not to cause lift off of the therapeutic side from the patient.
