摘要:
The invention relates to a medical respiratory assistance apparatus for delivering a respiratory gas such as air, which may or may not be enriched with oxygen, to a patient during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), having a source (1) of respiratory gas, for example a micro-blower, for delivering a respiratory gas to said patient during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and means (4) for measuring the CO2 content, signal-processing and control means (5), and at least one graphical user interface (7). According to the invention, the signal-processing and control means (5) process the CO2 content measurement signals, to select the maximum CO2 content value (Vmax) during a given time period (dt), and to transmit this maximum value (Vmax) to the graphical user interface (7), which displays this maximum CO2 content value (Vmax).

An example system includes a first wearable computing device, and at least one additional wearable computing device. The first wearable computing device is configured to retrieve information regarding a series of tasks to be performed in treating a patient in cardiopulmonary arrest. The information includes, for each task, an indication of a user to perform the task, an indication of a time point to perform the task. The first wearable computing device is further configured identify one or more subsets of the information, and transmit each subset to a different corresponding one of the additional wearable computing devices. Each additional wearable computing device is configured to receive, from the first wearable computing device, at least one of the one or more subsets of the information, and output, for each task within a received subset, a corresponding prompt to perform the task at the respective time point associated with the task.

A method, a system, or an apparatus for resuscitation can include a first sensor having a first output configured to provide a first sensor signal corresponding to optical attenuation of tissue at a site. The method, the system, or the apparatus can include a processor coupled to the first output. The processor can be configured to generate an output signal. The output signal can be determined based on a first parameter of the optical attenuation. The first parameter can correspond to blood circulation associated with externally applied stimulation of a cardiovascular organ. The method, the system, or the apparatus can include a system output coupled to the processor. The system output can be configured to provide a control signal determined using the output signal.

摘要:
A medical device of the type used for assisting a user in manually delivering repetitive therapy to a patient (e.g., chest compressions or ventilations in cardiac resuscitation), the device comprising a feedback device configured to generate feedback cues to assist the user in timing the delivery of the repetitive therapy, at least one sensor or circuit element configured to detect actual delivery times, at which the user actually delivers the repetitive therapy, and a processor, memory, and associated circuitry configured to compare the actual delivery times to information representative of desired delivery times to determine cue times at which the feedback cues are generated by the feedback device.
摘要:
A system for performing chest compression for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation. The system includes a motor, drive spool and associated couplings which allow for controlling and limiting the movement of the compressing mechanism and includes a control system for controlling the operation and interaction of the various components to provide for optimal automatic operation of the system.
