SMART SERVO FOR A MECHANICAL CPR SYSTEM

摘要

The invention relates to an apparatus and a method for automated Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation. The apparatus comprises a chest compression actuator, an actuator driver that supplies time-varying drive signals to the chest compression actuator in dependence of operating parameters of the actuator driver, a physiological parameter sensor supplying measured values of a physiological parameter related to the function of the chest compression actuator, and an adaptive control for the operating parameters of the actuator driver. The operating parameters determining a dynamic behavior of a system comprising the chest compression actuator and a chest of a patient.
