A cardio pulmonary resuscitation device and an integrated resuscitation system thereof

A cardio pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) device comprising:

• a backboard to support a subject in a supine position;
• a constriction element operationally coupled to the backboard, wherein the constriction element is capable of being placed across a thoracic region of the subject to constrict the subject;
• a decompression element connected to the constriction element such that the decompression element becomes a part of the constriction element and faces the backboard, wherein the decompression element is disposed substantially along the circumference of a thoracic region of the subject on deployment, further wherein the decompression element is adapted to adhere to the subject on deployment;
• and
• a sternum compression unit operationally coupled to the constriction element such that the sternum compression unit is disposed in a sternum region on deployment, wherein the sternum compression unit is adapted to compress the sternum of the subject to deliver active sternum compression and to be pulled back to deliver active sternum decompression,
• wherein the constriction element is adapted to be constricted for delivering active circumferential compression and compressing the decompression element, such that the decompression element adheres to the subject while delivering active circumferential compression, and
• wherein the constriction element is adapted to be slackened for pulling back the decompression element that is adhered to the subject to deliver active circumferential decompression.

An integrated resuscitation system comprising:

• a CPR device, the CPR device comprising:
• a constriction element capable of being operationally coupled to a backboard, wherein the constriction element is capable of being placed across a thoracic region of the subject to constrict the subject;
• a decompression element connected to the constriction element such that the decompression element becomes a part of the constriction element and faces the backboard, wherein the decompression element is disposed along the circumference of a thoracic region of the subject on deployment, further wherein the decompression element is adapted to adhere to the subject on deployment and
• a sternum compression unit operationally coupled to the constriction element such that the sternum compression unit is disposed in a sternum region of the constriction element on deployment, wherein the sternum compression unit is adapted to compress a sternum of the subject to deliver active sternum compression and to be pulled back to deliver active sternum decompression,
• wherein the constriction element is adapted to be constricted for delivering active circumferential compression, for compressing the decompression element, such that the decompression element adheres to the subject to deliver active circumferential compression, and
• wherein the constriction element is adapted to be slackened for pulling back the decompression element to deliver active circumferential decompression;
• a console operationally coupled to the constriction element, the console being configured to control deployment of the CPR device;
• and
• a real-time monitoring-and-feedback unit coupled to the CPR device, wherein the real-time monitoring-and-feedback unit comprises:
• electrodes attached to at least one of the backboard and the constriction element for monitoring medical parameters of the subject;
• and
• an output unit to provide the medical parameters as an output.

A method for performing cardio pulmonary resuscitation by an integrated resuscitation system, comprising:

• deploying a CPR device;
• delivering active circumferential compression to a subject by constricting a constriction element of the CPR device, wherein the constriction element is a multi-segment structure comprising a decompression element along the circumference of thoracic region of the subject;
• delivering active sternum compression with a sternum compression unit, operationally coupled to the constriction element, in a sternum region of the subject and adapted to compress the sternum region of the subject;
• delivering active sternum decompression with a decompression of the sternum compression unit and slackening of the constriction element;
• and
• delivering active chest decompression with slackening of the constriction element to pull back the decompression element at least partially along a circumference of thoracic region of the subject.
