A method for guiding a user in performing a Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) procedure on a patient involving a user portable device comprising a camera, and a display. The method includes receiving a video of the patient captured by the camera, and processing the video to segment a chest region of the patient. A target position on the chest where to position hands for performing CPR is then determined, and this position is then shown on the display, hereby guiding the user in obtaining a suitable hand position for performing CPR. The method can be implemented as a software application in a personal portable device such as a smart phone, a tablet application software, a wearable computer with head-mounted display etc. Further, the video of the scene captured by the camera can be processed to provide information regarding functional quality of CPR, e.g. compression frequency and depth, during the CPR procedure. Further, vital signs of the patient such as heart rate, respiration rate, and blood oxygen saturation may be derived by image processing on the video, i.e. without any dedicated medical sensors. All such information can be provided as visual and/or audible feedback to the user during the CPR procedure, thus improving CPR effectiveness, also in case of an untrained user. |

1. A method for guiding a user in performing a Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation procedure on a patient involving a portable device comprising a camera (CM), and a display (DP), the method comprising
a) receiving (R_V) data representing a video of the patient captured by the camera (CM), b) processing (S_CR) the video to segment a chest region of the patient, c) determining (D_TP) a target position (T_R) on the chest region where to position hands for performing Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation, and d) visualizing (V_TP) the target position (T_R) on the chest region on the display (DP) so as to guide the user in obtaining a suitable hand position for performing the Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation procedure. |
