Abstract: A device and a method for artificial respiration in emergencies are proposed. The device comprises respiratory mask (40) which can be placed onto the nose and mouth section of a person to be provided with artificial respiration, a mouth section mouthpiece (41), through which respiratory air from an aider can be supplied, a flow tube (2) disposed between the respiratory mask (40) and the mouthpiece (41), which flow tube forms a continuous flow channel for the supplied respiratory air from the mouthpiece (41) to the respiratory mask (40), at least one sensor (10) disposed in the flow channel of the flow tube (2), which sensor measures parameters of the gases flowing through the flow channel, a processor disposed on the flow tube (2) and an output device (124). Here, the processor processes the mass or volumetric flow registered by the flow sensor (19) to form an output signal. The output device (124) emits the output signal.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for and method of monitoring compressions in a cardiac massage on a person in a medical emergency situation. The device is equipped with a flow tube (2, 202), which exhibits a continuous flow channel for air, with at least one flow sensor (10) for determining mass or volumetric flow arranged in the flow channel of the flow tube (2, 202), and/or with a vital signs sensor arranged on the flow tube, by means of which a proportion of oxygen and carbon dioxide can be determined, with a processor that produces a characteristic output signal for penetration depth from the mass or volumetric flow determined and/or from the proportion of oxygen or carbon dioxide detected, and with an output device (124, 224) that issues the output signal.

Abstract: The quantities of fluid which are fed to a patient (P) by fluid supply devices (10) and the quantities of fluid which are excreted by the patient as urine, wound drainage fluid or similar, received in corresponding receptacles (20a, 20b, 20c) are counterbalanced by a fluid manager (15). The fluid manager (15) controls the fluid supply devices (10) in accordance with the result of the counterbalancing process. Each receptacle (20a, 20b, 20c) comprises a receiving container (22) and a secretion quantity detector (21). The levels are transmitted wirelessly to the fluid manager (15) by data transfer devices (25). Each data transfer device (25) also supplies power to its allocated secretion quantity detector (21) by means of a battery. The data transfer device (25) can be set to a standby state of low power consumption to save battery power. It is awaken by a signal of the fluid manager (15) and set to the transmitting state.
