Abstract: Techniques for pairing medical devices are described. An example method includes detecting a signal indicating a physiological parameter of a subject and determining, by analyzing the signal, that a second medical device is administering a treatment to the subject. In response to determining that the second medical device is administering the treatment to the subject, the method further includes pairing a first medical device with the second medical device. In response to pairing the first medical device with the second medical device, the method further includes transmitting data to the second medical device over a wireless channel.

Abstract: In embodiments, a CPR chest compression system includes a retention structure that can retain the patient's body, and a compression mechanism that can perform automatically CPR compressions and releases to the patient's chest. The compression mechanism can pause the performing of the CPR compressions for a short time, so that an attendant can check the patient. The CPR system can include a user interface that can output a human-perceptible check patient prompt, to alert an attendant to check the patient during the pause. The compression mechanism can during a CPR session retreat a distance away from the patient's chest whereby the patient's chest can expand without active decompression of the patient's chest beyond the chest's natural resting position.

Abstract: Techniques for administering therapy and monitoring a subject based on communication between medical devices are described. An example method includes receiving, by an external defibrillator, data from a mechanical chest compression device that is administering chest compressions to a subject, determining, by the external defibrillator analyzing the data, a control parameter for controlling administration of a therapy to the subject by the external defibrillator, and administering, by the external defibrillator, the therapy to the subject in accordance with the control parameter.

Abstract: A method for establishing communication between a first communication device (110) of a first communication network (180) and a second communication device (120a, 120b) of a second communication network (160) is disclosed. In one embodiment, a service provider (130) receives a message indicative of an intention of the first device to call the second device. A communication provider (140) in communication with the service provider establishes a communication channel with the second device via the second network based on the message received at the service provider and connects the communication channel established between the communication provider and the second device with another communication channel established in response to an incoming call from the first device to the communication provider via the first network. The establishment of the communication channel between the communication provider and the second device is initiated before establishment of the other communication channel is completed.

Abstract: A telephone connection is established between a first terminal and a second terminal. The first terminal is presumed to be associated with a subscription in a first home telephone network in which the terminal is identified by a first network identity. Correspondingly, the second terminal is presumed to be associated with a subscription in a second home telephone network in which the second terminal is identified by a second network identity. A host resource routes a call from the first terminal to the second terminal based on a combination of the first network identity and a first common telephone number in the first home telephone network dialed by the first terminal. The first common telephone number is selected such that it is unique and is adapted to be shared among a group of users in the first home telephone network.

Abstract: A telephone connection is established between a first terminal (A) and a second terminal (B). The first terminal (A) is presumed to be associated with a subscription in a first home telephone network (?) in which the terminal (A) is identified by means of a first network identity (CLIA). Correspondingly, the second terminal (B) is presumed to be associated with a subscription in a second home telephone network (?) in which the second terminal (B) is identified by means of a second network identity (CLIB). According to the invention, a host resource (110) routes a call from the first terminal (A) to the second terminal (B) based on a combination of the first network identity (CLIA) and a first common telephone number (#n) in the first home telephone network ( ) dialed by the first terminal (A). This is rendered possible because the first common telephone number (#?n) is selected such that the first is combination unique.

Abstract: A mail server site and a method in a mail server site provide mobile e-mail services to mobile stations connected to a digital radio communication network. Furthermore, a method in a mobile station utilizes the mobile e-mail services provided by the inventive mail server site. The mail server site includes a mail server host operating in accordance with POP3- or IMAP4-like protocols with respect to the usage of unique identifiers (UIDs) for identifying e-mail messages stored by the mail server host. Modified UIDs are allocated to e-mails received by the mail server site and transmitted to mobile mail clients using a short message based service. When the mail server host communicates with these mail clients, these modified UIDs will be used in the same way as conventional UIDs are used within the scope of a POP3 or IMAP4 protocol.
