Abstract: Devices and methods for compressing a chest of a patient includes a platform for placement under a thorax of the patient, a compression belt for extending over an anterior chest wall of the patient, a drive train operably connected to the compression belt, a motor operably connected to the compression belt through the drive train, and a control system configured to control operation of the motor to cause the drive train to tighten and loosen the compression belt in repeated cycles of compression about the thorax of the patient. Each cycle of the repeated cycles includes tightening the compression belt around the chest of the patient after tightening, causing, by the control system, the motor to cease operation of the drive train for a hold period; and at a termination of the hold period, loosening the compression belt around the chest of the patient.

Abstract: A system for assisting cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) treatment of a patient includes a defibrillator system including a defibrillator communicatively coupled to a local computing device and configured to receive signals from treatment sensors, a patient support section, and a tilt adjuster coupled to the patient support section. The tilt adjuster is configured to communicatively couple with the defibrillator system, receive a control signal indicative of a target tilt angle from the local computing device, and automatically tilt the patient support section, around a transverse axis, to the target tilt angle in response to the control signal from the local computing device. The system also includes a chest compression device mount disposed on the patient support section and configured to adjustably secure a chest compression device to the patient support section.

Abstract: This application describes an overtube device that gives diagnostic and/or therapeutic access to body cavities using natural orifices of the body. The overtube includes an elongate flexible body having a distal portion deflectable in response to activation of a control cable. Proximal features of the overtube include an insufflations port and seals for minimizing loss of insufflations pressure around the shafts of instruments passed through the tube. In some embodiments, retractor elements are including on the distal portion of the overtube.
