Abstract
A system for providing improved feedback on administration of CPR is disclosed. A compression sensor () is incorporated into a pad () adapted to be positioned between a rescuer's hands and a victim's chest. The compression sensor provides an output to a feedback control module () that records the output and segments the output into individual compression cycles that are analyzed with respect to evaluation criteria, such as those related to guidelines for effective CPR. The results of the analysis are formatted into a matrix having elements that represent the results of the analysis for an individual compression cycle with respect to an evaluation criterion. An example of the matrix elements is a graph plotting a property of compressions within one of the individual compression cycles over time. Portions of the graphs failing to satisfy one of the evaluation criteria may be highlighted.
