CPR ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18443274 titled 'CPR ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS

Simplified Explanation: The patent application relates to CPR devices that can be secured to the hands of users. A CPR assistance device, such as a CPR puck, can be attached to the user's hand using a securing device. The CPR puck includes a sensor to detect compressions during CPR.

  • CPR devices can be secured to users' hands using a securing device.
  • The CPR puck includes a sensor to detect compressions during CPR.
  • The systems provide low-cost solutions to enhance the effectiveness of CPR pucks and make them easier to use by rescuers.

Potential Applications: 1. Emergency medical services 2. First aid training programs 3. Healthcare facilities

Problems Solved: 1. Ensuring proper placement of CPR devices during resuscitation 2. Enhancing the effectiveness of CPR procedures 3. Improving user experience for rescuers

Benefits: 1. Increased accuracy in CPR compressions 2. Ease of use for rescuers 3. Cost-effective solution for CPR training and emergencies

Commercial Applications: The technology could be used in the development of CPR training devices for healthcare professionals, first responders, and the general public. It could also be integrated into existing CPR equipment to enhance performance and user experience.

Questions about CPR devices: 1. How do CPR devices with securing mechanisms improve the efficiency of CPR procedures? 2. What are the potential applications of CPR devices with sensors for compression detection?


Original Abstract Submitted

Systems and methods described herein relate to cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) devices and systems for securing the same to hands of users. The systems and methods herein provide for a CPR assistance device, such as a CPR puck, to be releasably coupled with the hand of a user using a securing device that may be releasably coupleable to the hand of the user and/or the CPR puck. The CPR puck includes a sensor to detect a compression of the body between the chest of the subject and the hand of the user. The systems enable low-cost solutions to increase the effectiveness of CPR pucks during use and ease of use by rescuers.
