Abstract
Chest compression machine systems and methods adjust the administration of patient treatment based on received physiological parameter measurements, such as a CO2 measurement. Adjustment of the administered chest compressions can include adjusting one or more chest compression parameters, such as the depth of the administered compressions, the administration of active decompressions, adjusting the height of active decompression, adjusting the rate of compressions and/or active decompressions and/or other changes to one or more properties, or characteristics, of the administered chest compressions and/or active decompressions.
Claims19
A chest compression machine, comprising:
- a chest compression member;
- a user interface electrically coupled to the chest compression machine configured to receive user input;
- and
- a control module configured to:
- generate instructions to cause the chest compression member to administer chest compressions, each of the chest compressions having a plurality of chest compression parameters,
- receive a first carbon dioxide (CO2) measurement from the user interface,
- alter a first chest compression parameter when the first CO2 measurement is below a first threshold,
- receive a second CO2 measurement after the first chest compression parameter has been altered, and
- administer active decompressions when the second CO2 measurement is below a second threshold.
A chest compression machine, comprising:
- a chest compression member configured to administer one or both of chest compressions and chest decompressions according to a treatment profile, each of the one or both of the chest compressions and the chest decompressions having one or more chest compression parameters;
- a user interface electrically coupled to the chest compression machine configured to receive user input;
- and
- a control module configured to:
- generate instructions to cause the chest compression member to administer chest compressions according to the treatment profile,
- identify a first threshold corresponding to a first chest compression parameter of the chest compressions or decompressions and a second threshold corresponding to a second chest compression parameter of the chest compressions or decompressions,
- receive a first physiological parameter measurement from the user interface,
- determine that the first physiological parameter measurement is below the first threshold,
- based on the determination that the first physiological parameter measurement is below the first threshold, alter the first chest compression parameter,
- receive a second physiological parameter from the patient after the first chest compression parameter has been altered,
- determine that the second physiological parameter is below the second threshold, and
- based on the determination that the second physiological parameter is below the second threshold, generate instructions to cause the chest compression member to administer chest decompressions at a specific height.
A chest compression administration system, comprising:
- a chest compression machine having a chest compression member;
- a user interface electrically coupled to the chest compression machine configured to receive user input;
- one or more patient physiological parameter sensing devices electrically coupled to the chest compression machine;
- and
- a control module configured to:
- cause the chest compression member to administer one or both of chest compressions or chest decompressions, each of the chest compressions and the chest decompressions having chest compression or decompression parameters,
- receive a first patient physiological parameter from one or both of the user interface and the one or more patient physiological parameter sensing devices,
- evaluate whether the first patient physiological parameter is below a first threshold,
- if the received first patient physiological parameter is below the first threshold, escalate a first compression parameter,
- if the received first patient physiological parameter is above the first threshold, de-escalate the first compression parameter,
- receive a second patient physiological parameter from the one or more patient physiological parameter sensing devices, and
- escalate a first chest decompression parameter to a specific height when the received second patient physiological parameter is below a second threshold.
