ECG and defibrillator electrode detection and tracking system and method

A resuscitation system for aiding a user in providing resuscitative treatment to a patient, the system comprising:

• a first electrode pad coupled in fixed relation with a first motion sensor, wherein the first motion sensor is configured to measure first motion signals while the first motion sensor is in motion;
• a second electrode pad coupled in fixed relation with a second motion sensor, wherein the second motion sensor is configured to measure second motion signals while the second motion sensor is in motion;
• a user interface configured to provide guidance on electrode pad placement;
• and
• at least one processor and memory communicatively coupled with the first motion sensor, the second motion sensor and the user interface, the at least one processor configured to:
• analyze the first and second motion signals from the first motion sensor and the second motion sensor, respectively,
• confirm whether the first electrode pad has been placed on the patient, and
• provide guidance to assist the user in placement of the second electrode pad on the patient based on the analyzed first and second motion signals from the first motion sensor and the second motion sensor.
