Patient support system with chest compression system and harness assembly with sensor system

A patient support system comprising:

• a patient support apparatus comprising a patient support surface;
• a harness assembly comprising shoulder straps configured to secure shoulders of the patient on said patient support surface during transport, and hip straps configured to secure hips of the patient on said patient support surface during transport, wherein said shoulder straps and said hip straps are coupled to one another at a junction;
• a positioning guide configured to be attached to the patient in a suitable compression location;
• a sensor system integrated into said harness assembly and configured to detect said positioning guide;
• a chest compression system operatively attached to said harness assembly, said chest compression system including:
• a patient interface disposed on said junction, and
• a tension adjustment system operatively coupled to said harness assembly, wherein said tension adjustment system comprises a shoulder strap actuator coupled to at least one of said shoulder straps, and a hip strap actuator coupled to at least one of said hip straps;
• and
• a controller in communication with said chest compression system and with said sensor system, said controller being configured to determine a current position of said patient interface relative to the suitable compression location based on signals received from said sensor system, operate said shoulder strap actuator and/or said hip strap actuator to move said patient interface to be within a predefined tolerance of the suitable compression location, and control operation of said shoulder strap actuator and said hip strap actuator to increase tension in said shoulder straps and said hip straps so as to urge said junction towards the patient to provide a chest compression to the patient.
