Airway-tube holder

An air-way tube holder includes a face plate having a v-shaped tube-receiving surface that aligns with one side of an opening through the face plate, and a holding block, which is disposed near a second side of the opening. The holding block receives a thumb screw and an engagement arm, the latter including a clamping head, which directly opposes the tube-receiving surface. The thumb screw is adapted to move the clamping head toward the tube-receiving surface to immobilize an airway tube therebetween, either by sliding the thumb screw (gross adjustment) or turning the thumb screw (fine adjustment). The thumb screw/clamping head is releasable by actuating a quick-release mechanism.

Control pad

A system is disclosed for providing feedback regarding chest compressions in CPR comprising a measuring unit, a processing unit and a display unit, where the measuring unit comprises a depth measuring device, a force measuring device, or both. The processing unit comprises a depth signal device and/or a force signal device and a threshold device. The processing unit is adapted to output a signal depending on the values of depth and/or force signals with respect to the thresholds. The display unit comprises at least one indicator and is adapted to activate the indicators based on the output from the processing device. The system thus measures and processes chest compressions and provides feedback to the user with respect to the characteristics of the compressions.
