TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of first aid, and in particular to a UAV first aid system carrying an automatic external defibrillator. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the case of cardiac arrest, the golden four minutes of rescue is extremely important before the professional rescue team arrives at the rescue site. Early defibrillation in rescue can restore normal rhythm, improve survival rate, prevent brain damage, avoid aggravation of myocardial damage, and can also gain time for subsequent treatment. Therefore, in the case of cardiac arrest, it is crucial to obtain an AED (automatic external defibrillator) as soon as possible and implement defibrillation correctly during rescue.

[0031] Figure 1 The structure schematic diagram of the unmanned aerial vehicle emergency system carrying an automatic external defibrillator in the embodiments of the present application is shown. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] Exemplary embodiments of the present application will be described herein below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present application are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present application can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided so that the present application can be more thoroughly understood and the scope of the present application can be accurately conveyed to those skilled in the art.

[0033] Embodiments of the present invention provide a drone-based emergency medical system equipped with an automated external defibrillator, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes:

[0034] The drone 101 is used to carry an automated external defibrillator 102, including a first camera, a second camera, a projector and a defibrillator electrode storage terminal. The first camera is used to collect images of the flight path, the second camera is used to collect images of the emergency recipients at the target emergency location, the projector is used to project the identifier onto the pasting location, and the defibrillator electrode storage terminal is used to attach defibrillator electrode pads of different models.

[0035] The command console 103 is used to send control commands to the drone 101 so that the drone 101 can fly to the target emergency rescue location based on the control commands and perform corresponding operations, and receive image data fed back by the drone 101.

[0036] After the drone 101 arrives at the target emergency location, the command console 103 controls the drone 102 to descend and hover at a preset height, and controls the second camera to scan the emergency recipient and obtain the recipient's body shape data.

[0037] Based on body shape data, the command console 103 determines the type of defibrillator pads required by the person in need of emergency care and controls the defibrillator storage terminal to release the corresponding type of defibrillator pads. At the same time, by controlling the projector, the identifier is projected onto the attachment position of the person in need of emergency care to guide the attachment of the defibrillator pads.

[0038] In a specific implementation, the drone 101 is docked at the command post 103, and the automated external defibrillator 102 is also stored at the command post 103. Of course, the command post 103 is located in some public places or near hospitals.

[0039] The command center 103 can receive signals from the monitoring devices carried by the person in need of emergency care, thereby enabling the command center 103 to determine that the person in need of emergency care requires immediate medical attention.

[0040] Specifically, the monitoring device is used to collect physiological signals of the person receiving emergency care, and when the physiological signals indicate cardiac arrest, it sends the location information to the command center 103.

[0041] The monitoring device is a smartwatch or a portable chest monitor. When the patient wears the monitoring device to monitor their physiological data, the data analysis determines that the patient has experienced cardiac arrest, and a rescue signal is promptly sent to the nearest command post 103. The command post 103 then controls a drone 101 to deliver the rescue signal to the nearest location.

[0042] Of course, the command center 103 can receive not only rescue signals from monitoring equipment, but also emergency calls or distress signals based on network platforms, and this is not a limitation.

[0043] After the command station 103 receives the emergency signal, the unmanned aerial vehicle 101 is controlled to fly to the target emergency location with the automatic external defibrillator, and corresponding operations are performed, and image data fed back by the unmanned aerial vehicle 101 is received.

[0044] The command station 103 first generates a target route to the target emergency location based on the emergency signal including the target emergency location, and guides the unmanned aerial vehicle 101 to fly according to the target route.

[0045] The target route can avoid objective obstacles, but cannot avoid other obstacles appearing in the flight process. Therefore, the command station 103 is further configured to control the unmanned aerial vehicle to avoid obstacles based on obstacle images fed back by the first camera.

[0046] Specifically, the command station 103 controls the unmanned aerial vehicle 101 to fly to the target emergency location at a maximum safe speed of 60 km / h, and the flight height is kept at 10-50 m, of course, it can also be automatically adjusted according to the urban building density.

[0047] Then, after the unmanned aerial vehicle 101 arrives at the target emergency location, the command station 103 controls the unmanned aerial vehicle 101 to descend and hover at a preset height, and controls the second camera to be turned on to scan the emergency object and obtain the body shape data of the emergency object.

[0048] In a specific embodiment, the unmanned aerial vehicle 101 can be controlled to descend and hover at a distance of 3-5 m from the ground, and the second camera is directly turned on to scan the emergency object. At this time, the emergency object has been placed flat on the ground by the rescuer, so as to obtain the body shape data of the emergency object. The body shape data is specifically height and weight.

[0049] Specifically, the command station 103 is specifically configured to:

[0050] estimate the height and weight of the emergency object based on the body shape data;

[0051] determine whether the emergency object is an adult based on the height and weight;

[0052] if yes, determine that the defibrillation electrode patch required by the emergency object is an adult type;

[0053] if no, determine that the defibrillation electrode patch required by the emergency object is a child type.

[0054] In the determination of the height and weight of the emergency object, the following method is specifically used:

[0055] A vertical line perpendicular to the ground is constructed on the top of the head and the sole of the emergency object, and the vertical line is extended to the UAV 101, so that the UAV 101 horizontally scans the distance between the two vertical lines, which is the height of the emergency object. At the same time, the maximum width of the emergency object is determined in the same way, and the weight is determined based on the maximum width and height of the emergency object. Specifically, according to the height-weight table combined with the maximum width of the emergency object, the actual approximate weight is obtained by looking up the table.

[0056] Next, after determining the height and weight of the emergency object, it is judged whether the emergency object is an adult. When it is an adult, the defibrillation electrode sheet corresponding to the adult is determined to be provided to the emergency patient. Of course, when it is a child, the defibrillation electrode sheet corresponding to the child is determined to be provided to the emergency patient.

[0057] Specifically, if the height is less than 120 cm or the weight is less than 25 kg, it is determined to be a child, and the defibrillation electrode sheet corresponding to the child is provided to the emergency patient. Otherwise, the defibrillation electrode sheet corresponding to the adult is provided.

[0058] Specifically, the UAV 101 is controlled by the command platform 103 to unlock the corresponding defibrillation electrode storage end, wherein the adult type defibrillation electrode sheet corresponds to one defibrillation electrode storage end, and the child type defibrillation electrode sheet corresponds to another defibrillation electrode storage end.

[0059] In an optional embodiment, the command platform 103 is wirelessly connected with the automatic external defibrillator 102, for receiving the defibrillation shock mode sent by the automatic external defibrillator 102.

[0060] After the defibrillation electrode sheet is pasted on the emergency object, the automatic external defibrillator 102 is thrown by the UAV 101, and the rescuer connects the defibrillation electrode sheet with the automatic defibrillator 102 according to the voice guidance instruction, turns on the defibrillation electrode mode, and discharges.

[0061] Specifically, the console 103 is used to determine the defibrillation energy based on the height and weight, and send the defibrillation energy to the automatic external defibrillator 102, so that the automatic external defibrillator 102 automatically charges and discharges according to the defibrillation energy, avoiding the problem that the rescuer cannot control the defibrillation energy, resulting in improper rescue.

[0062] When the rescuer uses the automatic external defibrillator 102, the operation is performed according to the voice guidance, such as when pasting the defibrillation electrode sheet, the voice broadcast is "Please place the patient flat on a hard surface and unbutton the chest clothing", "Please pay attention to the laser mark position and paste the electrode sheet at the red dot", and the red dot is the identifier projected by the projector.

[0063] For adults, the identifier should be projected on the chest, the apex of the heart and below the right clavicle of the emergency object.

[0064] After the rescuer pastes the defibrillation electrode patch, the patient's heart rate is automatically checked, and if it is identified as ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia, the following is immediately performed: charging according to the preset defibrillation energy, and a voice prompt "discharge soon, please do not touch the patient", and finally, automatic discharge defibrillation, and synchronous recording of the defibrillation waveform and energy parameters. The recorded data is fed back to the command center 103.

[0065] Of course, the command center 103 is connected with the emergency center, and the emergency process data is fed back to the emergency center until professional medical personnel arrive at the target emergency site. The emergency process data includes defibrillation process data, flight trajectory data, etc., which are fed back to the emergency center for medical analysis and system optimization.
