Problems solved by technology

This results in batteries that are excessive in both size and weight, which limits the portability and convenience of these batteries, and in the case of wearable defibrillators such as the LifeVest (ZOLL, Medical, Chelmsford, MA), Limits battery wearability and comfort
Additionally, the battery remains the least reliable element of currently manufactured AEDs, with periodic recalls due to manufacturing defects and the usual end of life that always follows the battery, but batteries are particularly troublesome for life-saving devices

Embodiment Construction

[0069] This description discusses systems and techniques for delivering defibrillation energy in a controlled manner. Typically, this energy needs to be built up, such as by charging a capacitor, and this energy buildup can take a considerable length of time. Using the techniques discussed herein, the system is able to analyze the patient's needs well in advance of the time a defibrillation pulse is to be delivered (for example, while a rescuer is performing chest compressions) and is able to initiate adjustments to capacitors or other appropriate The energy delivery mechanism is charged so that a shock can be delivered immediately when a shock is required.

[0070] now refer to figure 2 , shows an AED 10 that can be used to deliver a defibrillation shock at the appropriate time. In the figures showing an example implementation, a rescuer uses AED 10 to automatically monitor a patient during cardiac resuscitation. The AED 10 uses the measured ECG signal to monitor the pati...

Abstract

Systems and methods related to the field of cardiac resuscitation, and in particular to devices for assisting rescuers in performing cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) are described herein.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to US Application Serial No. 13 / 208,871, filed August 12, 2011, entitled "DEFIBRILLATOR DISPLAY INCLUDING CPR DEPTH INFORMATION," the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] This document relates to cardiac resuscitation, and more particularly to systems and techniques for assisting rescuers in cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Background technique [0004] The heart relies on organized trains of electrical impulses to beat efficiently. Deviations from this normal sequence are known as "arrhythmias". Some medical devices include signal processing software that analyzes electrocardiogram (ECG) signals obtained from medical patients (for example, at the scene of an emergency) to determine when cardiac arrhythmias such as ventricular fibrillation (VF) are present or may Shock ventricular tachycardia (VT). These devices include automate...
