  • METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND APPARATUS FOR SIMULATING THE CHANGE OF CHEST IMPEDANCE WITH PASSIVE COMPONENTS AND ELECTROCARDIOGRAM CONTAMINATION
    Publication number: 20230255537
    Abstract: An electromechanical system for generating a CPR-corrupted ECG signal is provided. The electromechanical system may include an ECG signal generator electrically coupled to a first contact of an AED. The electromechanical system may further include a potentiometer electrically coupled to the ECG signal generator and a second contact of the AED. The electromechanical system may further include a compression mechanism. The compression mechanism may be configured to receive a vertical force and adjust an impedance of the potentiometer according to the vertical force. The compression mechanism may include a rack having a plurality of teeth and an initial position. The rack may be configured to translate to a second position according to the vertical force. The compression mechanism may further include a gear with a plurality of teeth engaged with the teeth of the rack such that the gear rotates according to the translation of the rack.

  • Bilingual language controller for an automated external defibrillator
    Patent number: 9248307
    Abstract: A language controller (20) is described which can be installed on the front face of an automated external defibrillator (AED) in order to establish the language of the AED user interface. The language controller is in the form of a labeled plaque (210) which informs the user which language is currently in use. The plaque may also contain a button (222) which enables toggling from one language to another. Memory may also reside in the plaque to provide language data to the AED.
