Abstract: Herein a hand-held electrically powered device (2) is disclosed. The hand-held device comprises a housing (4)), an electric motor (14), and a fan (18). The hand-held device (2) comprises a wall member (20) arranged inside the housing (4) and forming at least part of a wall (22) which delimits a first compartment (24) from a second compartment (26) within the housing (4). The wall member (20) forms an individual element. The wall member (20) is coupled to first and second housing elements. The wall member (20) comprises a through opening (42). The electric motor (14) extends from the first compartment (24) to the second compartment (26) via the through opening (42). The electric motor (14) is supported by the wall member (20).

Abstract: A chest compression device for cardiopulmonary resuscitation comprises a support structure 2 for placement about a patient's chest and for holding a chest compressor 6 above a patient's sternum; a chest compressor 6 mounted on the support structure 2; and lateral chest supports 14 attached to the support structure 2 at points laterally either side of the chest when the device is in use, such that the lateral chest supports 14 will apply lateral pressure to the sides of the chest synchronized with a chest compression by the chest compressor 6.
