System and method for emergency medical event capture, recording and analysis with gesture, voice and graphical interfaces

Introduced here are approaches for capturing and recording medical event details during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) events and other emergency medical events. A recording begins when an operator inputs a request to initiate recording. The operator may use a recording system with a combination of input devices to record medical actions. The recording system acknowledges the operator's actions by various means which may include icons displayed for the operator. The operator's interactions with the icons indicate corresponding actions observed by the operator, which are recorded as a log of the actions in temporal order that serves as a non-transient record of the medical event. An analysis of the recorded details of the medical event, by comparing the actions to prescribed actions in one or more professional standards, can provide an assessment of the actions taken.

System to determine user presence

ActiveUS12277794B1Biometric pattern recognitionReflectance spectroscopyComputer vision
An input device determines presence of an actual user, instead of an artifact, by using multi-wavelength reflectance spectroscopy. Light sources are operated to illuminate an object with different colors of light at different times. A detector determines, at those different times, intensity data indicative of intensity light of these different colors as reflected from the object. The intensity data is processed to determine whether the object is part of a user or is an artifact. For example, if the object is deemed to be a user, biometric input may be acquired. The biometric input may then be processed to identify the user. The input device may be used at various locations, such as at an entry portal, point of sale, and so forth.
