CPR chest compression machine with camera

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing one or more programs which, when executed by a Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (“CPR”) machine that includes a user interface, a retention structure retaining a body of a patient while a sight target has been removably placed on the body of the patient by a rescuer, the sight target including an aiming mark and an indication selected from at least a first indication and a second indication, a compression mechanism, a main camera coupled to the retention structure, the main camera having a main field of view that is configured to span at least a portion of the body while the body is retained by the retention structure, the sight target being thus spanned by the main field of view, the main image thus including a view of the sight target, result in operations comprising:

• performing automatically by the compression mechanism, while the body is thus retained by the retention structure and the sight target has been removably placed on the body of the patient by the rescuer, the sight target placed such that the aiming mark does not align with a CPR compression, CPR compressions alternating with releases to a chest of the patient, the CPR compressions configured to cause the chest to become compressed by at least 2 cm;
• acquiring, by the main camera, a main image of what is spanned by the main field of view;
• performing a convolution process on the main image so as to find a position of the view of the sight target;
• determining the indication of the sight target as one of the first indication or the second indication;
• causing the compression mechanism to adjust CPR compressions based on the determination of the indication;
• detecting whether the found position of the view of the sight target is outside a required range;
• and
• emitting, by the user interface, an alarm if the view of the sight target is thus detected to be outside the required range.

A Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (“CPR”) machine, comprising:

• a retention structure configured to retain a body of a patient;
• a compression mechanism configured to perform automatically, while the body is retained by the retention structure, CPR compressions alternating with releases to a chest of the patient, the CPR compressions configured to cause the chest to become compressed by at least 2 cm;
• a mirror coupled to the retention structure;
• a main camera coupled to one of the retention structure and the compression mechanism, the main camera having a main field of view that is configured to span at least the mirror and a portion of the body while the body is retained by the retention structure, the main camera configured to acquire a main image of what is spanned by the main field of view, at least a portion of the main image thus acquired through the mirror;
• a sight target that is configured to be placed removably by a rescuer at a certain location of the body, the sight target having an aiming mark and placed such that the aiming mark is not aligned with a chest compression and such that the sight target is spanned by the main field of view, the sight target further including an indication selected from at least a first indication and a second indication;
• and
• a processor configured to determine the indication as one of the first indication or the second indication from the main image and the compression mechanism further configured to adjust CPR compressions based on the determination of the indication.

• and
• a processor configured to analyze the image of the indication to determine the indication being one of the first indication or the second indication, and
• in which the compression mechanism is configured to perform the CPR compressions in a first manner when the indication is determined to be the first indication and in a second manner when the indication is determined to be the second indication.
