Abstract: A medical device for providing guidance to administered cardiopulmonary resuscitation during cardiac arrest in a subject comprising a measuring probe to measure a hemodynamic property of blood flowing through a blood vessel of the subject, an interface element with reference indicia to guide the measuring probe to major blood vessels of the subject experiencing cardiac arrest, and a blood flow monitoring device comprising a data module to collect measured hemodynamic properties of the subject and a guidance module configured to display resuscitation guidance information for manipulating at least one hemodynamic property of the blood.

Abstract: Devices and systems for delivering an aerosolized reperfusion-injury-modifying drug (RIMD) to a patient are described. In an embodiment, the devices include an RIMD; an aerosolizer in fluid communication with the RIMD configured to aerosolize the RIMD to provide an RIMD aerosol; and an exit port configured to direct the RIMD aerosol for receipt by the patient. In an embodiment, the systems include a ventilator configured to generate airflow and coupled to the exit port. Methods for delivering an aerosol comprising an RIMD to a patient are also described. In an embodiment, the methods include aerosolizing an RIMD to provide an RIMD aerosol comprising RIMD droplets; and introducing the RIMD aerosol into an inhalation airflow of the patient.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a blood flow sensor device such as a non-invasive cardiac arrest monitor (NICAM) that uses ultrasound to detect blood flow is used to monitor blood flow during cardiopulmonary resuscitation. One or more gating signal generation devices transmit gating signals to a blood flow monitoring computing device. The blood flow monitoring computing device uses the gating signals to determine time periods during which blood flow information generated by the blood flow sensor device is most likely to be accurate. The blood flow monitoring computing device measures blood flow during the time periods. In some embodiments, the blood flow monitoring computing device presents the measured blood flow to a user. In some embodiments, the blood flow monitoring computing device transmits a command to a chest compression device based on the measured blood flow.

Abstract: A reperfusion injury detection device comprising a measuring probe with a plurality of sensors collecting a hemodynamic property of a blood vessel of a subject coupled to a pneumatic cuff for applying transient occlusion to the blood vessel being measured and a reperfusion injury analysis device made up from a data module that measures the collected hemodynamic property and determines metric of the measured property over time, and display the measured property on an output module.

Abstract: The present technology relates generally to blood flow measuring systems and associated devices and methods. In some embodiments, a system for measuring blood flow during a cardiac arrest configured in accordance with the technology comprises an interface element configured to be removably attached to a patient's skin at a target site proximate to a carotid artery of the patient, a hand-held ultrasound transducer configured to be positioned in contact with the interface element at the target site, and a controller operably coupled to the ultrasound transducer and configured to determine a blood flow velocity of the patient based on received ultrasound data. In some embodiments, the adhesive member can include one or more reference indicia corresponding to anatomical landmarks associated with a desired position of the ultrasound transducer relative to the carotid artery.

Abstract: Methods and systems for accurately tracking medical devices using a two-dimensional (2D) matrix code are disclosed. Scan data, location data, and status data may be received by a processor. The scan data may comprise identification information corresponding to a medical device; the location data may comprise location information corresponding to the medical device; and the status data may comprise status information corresponding to the medical device. Once the scan data, location data, and status data has been received, the scan data, the location data and the status data may be stored. Next, at least one medical-device characteristic may be determined, based on at least the scan data and the status data, and once the medical-device characteristic is determined, the medical-device characteristic may be displayed on a graphical display.
