  • Patent number: 12702846
    Abstract: An accessory dock is described, the accessory dock for docking wireless accessories that are configured to be used with a medical device. The accessory dock has at least one docking receptacle configured to receive a wireless accessory. In some examples, the wireless accessory receives power from the medical device upon being positioned within a threshold distance of the medical device to charge a battery of the wireless accessory. In some examples, the wireless accessory pairs with the medical device upon being positioned within a threshold distance of the medical device. In some examples, a processor of the medical device causes performance of an accessory health check upon the wireless accessory being docked in the docking receptacle, the accessory health check for determining a readiness of the wireless accessory.

  • Publication number: 20260215996
    Abstract: Detecting and analyzing chest compressions via airway parameters, and performing one or more actions based on the compression analysis is described. In some examples, a sensor detects a carbon dioxide (CO2) parameter associated with a subject, and a processor generate CO2 data indicating the CO2 parameter. The processor further identifies a chest compression artifact exhibited in the CO2 data, determines, based on the chest compression artifact, a chest compression parameter associated with chest compressions that are being administered to the subject, and causes performance of an action based on an analysis of the chest compression parameter.

  • Publication number: 20260216459
    Abstract: There is described a medical device (100), comprising:—an airway adaptor (212, 312) configured to be connected to an airway of a patient;—a first sensor (104, 202, 302) a configured to detect a first parameter of a space fluidly connected to the airway adaptor, the first parameter being for example an air flow rate, an air pressure, an O2 level, a CO2 level, or a humidity level;—a second sensor (104, 204, 304) configured to detect a second parameter of the space, the second parameter being for example an O2 level or an air pressure;—a display (216, 316); and-a processor (510) configured to determine a relationship between the first parameter and the second parameter, based on determining that the relationship has changed over multiple ventilations, identify a leak between the airway adaptor and the airway of the patient, generate an alert indicating the leak, and cause the display to output the alert.

  • Patent number: 12551696
    Abstract: Electrodes having a usability indicator to indicate a usability of the electrodes are described. The electrodes include a first electrode and a second electrode, as well as an output device(s) that are configured to output a usability indication indicative of a usability of the set of electrodes. If the usability indication indicates that the electrodes should be replaced, the user can discard the set of electrodes and replace them with a new set of electrodes, thereby mitigating the risk of compromising patient care for a patient.
