Abstract: A CPR machine (100) is configured to perform, on a patient's (182) chest, compressions that alternate with releases. The CPR machine includes a compression mechanism (148), and a driver system (141) configured to drive the compression mechanism. A force sensing system (149) may sense a compression force, and the driving can be adjusted accordingly if there is a surprise. For instance, driving may have been automatic according to a motion-time profile, which is adjusted if the compression force is not as expected (850). An optional chest-lifting device (152) may lift the chest between the compressions, to assist actively the decompression of the chest. A lifting force may be sensed, and the motion-time profile can be adjusted if the compression force or the lifting force is not as expected.

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 also includes a user interface that can output a human-perceptible check patient prompt, to alert an attendant to check the patient during the pause. An advantage can be when the attendant checks in situations where the condition of the patient might have changed, and an adjustment is needed. Or in situations where the patient may have improved enough to where the compressions are no longer needed.

Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying Passive Intermodulation (PIM) products are disclosed. Some embodiments use RAN Performance Measurement (PM) counters, of actual DL Traffic Load to correlate with UL noise and interference counters. By using counters, the DL traffic is correlated to the increase in noise and interference in order to determine which DL carrier combinations are causing degradation to which UL carriers. In this way, aggressor-victim grouping can be identified through normal downlink traffic load with uplink interference to identify passive intermodulation products. This can be done for all aggressor-victim groups within a radio base station site or cluster of sites. Also, some embodiments enable estimating the maximum PIM interference created by the aggressor carriers. This helps operators to quantify the impact of PIM and can enable them to take counter measures. These embodiments are Radio Access Technology (RAT) agnostic and operator agnostic for the aggressors within a site.
