Abstract
Emergency CPR systems for patient support systems utilizing backup battery power. For example, an emergency CPR switch attached to a hospital bed provided with a patient support platform having a portion that is pivoted between a flat position and an inclined position by a motor powered by a battery during emergency usage. The emergency CPR switch includes: a first relay disposed between the battery and the motor; a controller configured to provide a motor control signal to control the motor; and a switch electrically connected to the first relay. When the switch is operated the first relay is activated to drive the motor with the battery in a direction placing the pivotable portion in the flat position and control of the motor by the motor control signal is disabled or overridden.
