<p>Techniques for capturing images of a defibrillation scene may involve obtaining images of a defibrillator scene using a camera coupled, in communication with, or integrated with an external defibrillator, such as an AED. For example, when a person arrives on the scene of a patient suffering sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) with a defibrillator, the person aims the camera at the patient and obtains an image of the patient. The camera may obtain a series of images, such as video imagery, and store the images in a storage medium associated with the camera or the defibrillator. The stored images may serve to document the defibrillation incident for later evaluation. For example, the stored images may provide a video record of actions taken,'observed patient responses, and other significant events during the course of the incident. In some instances, the camera or defibrillator may transmit the images to a remote assistance center.</p> |
