摘要:
The apparatus has a pulse sensor measuring a pulse rate of a victim and a SpO2 sensor measuring blood oxygenation. Electronics processes outputs of the sensors and determines actions of a rescuer who performs cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR). A prompting device conveys the actions to the rescuer. The electronics provides a prompt that instructs the rescuer to release from a chest.
摘要:
A resuscitation system for use by a rescuer for resuscitating a patient, comprising at least two high-voltage defibrillation electrodes, a first electrical unit comprising circuitry for providing resuscitation prompts to the rescuer, a second electrical unit separate from the first unit and comprising circuitry for providing defibrillation pulses to the electrodes, and circuitry for providing at least one electrical connection between the first and second units. In another aspect, at least two electrical therapy electrodes adapted to be worn by the patient for extended periods of time, circuitry for monitoring the ECG of the patient, an activity sensor adapted to be worn by the patient and capable of providing an output from which the patient's current activity can be estimated, and at least one processor configured for estimating the patient's current activity by analyzing the output of the activity sensor, analyzing the ECG of the patient, and determining whether electrical therapy should be delivered to the electrodes.

摘要:
A defibrillator includes: a housing; a discharge module disposed on a first portion of a printed circuit board and positioned within the housing; an energy storage module disposed on a second portion of the printed circuit board; and a controller module disposed on a third portion of the printed circuit board. The energy storage module is operatively connected to the discharge module by a first flexible member. The controller module is operatively connected to the energy storage module by a second flexible member. The first flexible member is folded such that the first portion of the printed circuit board is positioned substantially parallel to the second portion of the printed circuit board and the second flexible member is folded such that the third portion of the printed circuit board is positioned substantially perpendicular to the first and second portions of the printed circuit board.

A method for evaluating emergency medical service according to embodiments of the present invention includes receiving emergency medical service data from a database, filtering the emergency medical service data based on a selection criteria to form a filtered emergency medical service data set, determining a first score from the filtered emergency medical service data set, where the first score indicates objective clinical performance quality for the filtered emergency medical service data set, determining a second score from the filtered emergency medical service data set, where the second score indicates objective operational performance quality for the filtered emergency medical service data set, merging the first score and the second score to form a composite score; and visually displaying the composite score to a user.
摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention include a system having at least one sensor configured to monitor a muscle oxygen saturation (SmO2) level of a patient who is undergoing cardiac arrest and to generate a signal representing SmO2 level; a user interface device; a processor communicably coupled to the user interface device, the processor configured to cause the user interface device to present an array of two or more possible nodes of a clinical decision support tree, wherein at least one of the nodes indicates cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) treatment of the patient with no ventilation, and wherein at least another of the nodes indicates CPR treatment of the patient with active ventilation; determine which of the two or more possible nodes should be emphasized based on the SmO2 level; and update the array of the two or more possible nodes based on the determination.
摘要:
An apparatus includes a computing device that includes a memory configured to store instructions. The computing device also includes a processor to execute the instructions to perform operations that include receiving a signal representative of electrical impedance in a chest of a patient, and, receiving a signal representative of the motion of chest compressions performed on the patient during a cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) treatment. The operations also include processing the received signal representative of the motion of chest compressions to determine one or more characteristics of the motion, and, processing the received signal representative of the electrical impedance to determine parameters relevant to a production of a signal representative of airflow activities of the patient. Operations also include modifying the one or more determined parameters based on the one or more determined characteristics of the motion to produce the signal representative of airflow activities of the patient.
