Abstract:
A medical system is provided. The medical system includes a medical device and a mobile computing device. The medical device includes at least one physiologic sensor configured to acquire physiological signals from a patient, at least one processor coupled to the at least one physiologic sensor, and at least one optical code encoded with encrypted data. The mobile computing device includes a camera and one or more processors coupled to the camera and configured to acquire one or more images of the at least one optical code, decode the one or more images of the at least one optical code to generate a copy of the encrypted data, decrypt the copy of the encrypted data to generate decrypted data, and process the decrypted data to establish an operable connection between the mobile computing device and the medical device.
Abstract:
An exemplary method of identifying a source of chest compressions administered during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) includes receiving, at a processor, signals indicative of pressure exerted during the chest compressions from at least one sensor communicatively coupled to the processor and disposed at a location on the victim's chest away from an indicated compression point for manual chest compressions, generating a compression waveform based on the received signals, detecting compression waveform features representative of the chest compressions based on the compression waveform, comparing the detected compression waveform features to a pre-determined criterion to discriminate between chest compressions from an automated compression device and manual chest compressions, determining whether the chest compressions are from the automated compression device or the manual chest compressions based on the comparison, and generating an output based on whether the chest compressions are determined to be from the automated compression device or the manual chest compressions.
Abstract:
An automated chest compression device for performing CPR, with distance sensors disposed on a compressing mechanism and on a structure fixed relative to the CPR patient, for determining inferior/superior movement of the compressing mechanism over the course of multiple compressions.
Abstract:
An ECG processing system which removes vehicle motion artifact from a measured ECG signal based on vehicle cabin motion and vehicle suspension motion.
