Abstract

Immediate application of cardio pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is crucial for the survival of someone being treated for cardiac arrest, drowning or electric shock. CPR is applicable for any individual who is unresponsive with no breathing or breathing just in infrequent painful gasps, as it is likely to have suffered cardiac arrest. Survival rate from cardiac arrest is very poor and traditional manual CPR techniques do not give the reliable and effective chest compressions required to treat a patient. An answer for this issue is to take out the human component altogether and use the advantages of a machine. By investigating the current manual CPR techniques, we have designed and built up an automated CPR device that would provide sternal compression force. The device has been tested on a CPR manikin and the results were positive. The cost of the device is around $300 and this device will be an important addition for emergency rescuers in developing regions like in Bangladesh.

一种低成本活塞驱动的自动心肺复苏装置的设计

立即实施心肺复苏(CPR)对心脏骤停、溺水或触电患者的生存至关重要。心肺复苏术适用于任何没有呼吸反应的人，或者只是偶尔有痛苦的喘息，因为这很可能是心脏骤停。心脏骤停的存活率非常低，传统的人工心肺复苏技术不能提供可靠和有效的胸部按压来治疗患者。解决这个问题的办法是完全去掉人的因素，利用机器的优势。通过对目前人工心肺复苏技术的研究，我们设计并制造了一种自动心肺复苏装置，该装置可以提供胸骨压迫力。该装置已经在一个心肺复苏术人体模型上进行了测试，结果是阳性的。该设备的成本约为300美元，该设备将成为孟加拉国等发展中地区紧急救援人员的重要补充。
