Abstract: The present invention relates to a device (10), system (1) and method (200) for use in blood oxygen saturation measurement of a subject.

Abstract: A device for supporting determination of return of spontaneous circulation, ROSC, during an associated cardiopulmonary resuscitation, CPR, procedure which is being performed on an associated patient. A sensor is used to sense a physiological signal of the patient. Frequency analysis of the signal is carried out to extract dominant fundamental frequency components in the signal. From this analysis it is possible to determine that there has been a potential ROSC.

Abstract: A device is configured for tracking e.g. the diastolic blood pressure in a patient. The device applies a pressure to a body part, e.g. by use of an inflatable cuff. By performing repeated and alternating pressure changes in the cuff, a specific feature of a signal that relates to the diastolic blood pressure can be tracked and possibly measured. The device may have particular use in conjunction with cardiopulmonary resuscitation devices.

Abstract: A system for providing feedback regarding chest compressions in CPR, an automated resuscitation device and a method for providing feedback regarding chest compressions in CPR, are based upon a quality measure for cardio pulmonary resuscitation. The system includes a measuring unit, a processor, an indicator unit, and a sensor and display. The measuring unit measures an arterial blood pressure of a patient. The processor calculates a blood pressure CPR quality index based on the measured blood pressure as a function of time. The indicator unit provides an indication of the blood pressure CPR quality indicator. The sensor registers a depth of compression of CPR and the display displays a signal indicating CPR compression depth as a function of time.

Abstract: Methods for treating a patient and further to devices for performing such treatment, e.g., methods and devices to perturb at least one physiological system and deliver therapy to the patient based on the effects of such perturbation. For example, a method for using an implantable medical device is disclosed that involves a method for using an implantable medical device delivering electrical stimuli to an afferent nerve associated with the selected organ. The efferent electrical activity is monitored in an efferent nerve responsive to delivering electrical stimuli to the afferent nerve, the monitored efferent electrical activity includes an indirect component of a compound action potential (CAP). A status of the selected organ is assessed based upon the indirect component.
