摘要:
In some embodiments, a blood flow sensor device such as a non-invasive cardiac arrest monitor (NICAM) that uses ultrasound to detect blood flow is used to monitor blood flow during cardiopulmonary resuscitation. One or more gating signal generation devices transmit gating signals to a blood flow monitoring computing device. The blood flow monitoring computing device uses the gating signals to determine time periods during which blood flow information generated by the blood flow sensor device is most likely to be accurate. The blood flow monitoring computing device measures blood flow during the time periods. In some embodiments, the blood flow monitoring computing device presents the measured blood flow to a user. In some embodiments, the blood flow monitoring computing device transmits a command to a chest compression device based on the measured blood flow.
