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 an applicator device configured to provide ACD CPR treatment to a patient's chest according to a plurality of phases at least one sensor configured to be coupled to the patient's chest and to measure at least one parameter related to the ACD CPR treatment and information for determining whether at least one transition point of the ACD CPR treatment has been reached; and one or more processors configured to provide a feedback signal based on a parameter for administering ACD CPR treatment to the patient's chest according to a desired treatment protocol.

Active compression decompression cardiopulmonary resuscitation chest compression feedback

A medical apparatus provides resuscitative therapy to a patient. The apparatus includes an electrocardiogram (ECG) input, a defibrillation output configured to provide an electrical defibrillation shock treatment, and an applicator body configured to provide active compression decompression therapy to the patient's chest. The applicator body includes a rescuer end configured for hands of the rescuer to press and pull on the applicator body, a coupling surface configured to adhere to the patient's chest to provide active compression decompression therapy, a capacitor, and processor(s) configured to receive and analyze the ECG signal of the patient, determine whether the patient is in need of defibrillation, and administer the defibrillation shock treatment to the patient.

Active compression decompression resuscitation integrated treatment system

Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for delivering respiratory treatment to a patient. For example, a treatment system may include a mechanism for delivering a positive pressure breath to a patient, and one or more limb flow control assemblies which modulate gas flow to and from the patient. Exemplary treatment techniques are embodied in anesthesia machines, mechanical ventilators, and manual ventilators.

Systems and methods for therapeutic intrathoracic pressure regulation

Systems and apparatuses related to the field of cardiac resuscitation, and in particular to devices for assisting rescuers in the administration of cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) are described herein. The system includes an adhesive pad configured to be adhered to at least a portion of a patient's chest, a sensor configured to be placed on the patient's chest and to measure at least one chest compression parameter during CPR treatment, and a landing pad having a coupling surface at least partially surrounding the sensor and configured for maintaining adherence with an active compression decompression device, the adherence sufficient to transfer decompression force between the active compression decompression device and the patient's chest during the CPR treatment.
