Abstract:
Standardized cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) of patients prior to the arrival of emergency medical services can significantly improve survival rate after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). According to statistics, about 40% to 85% of CPR led to chest fractures, making bystanders alarm, and reducing the willingness of rescuing by CPR. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a CPR protection device that is convenient for placing in public places outside the hospital and conforms to the operation habit of freehand CPR. In view of the above problems, medical students majored in emergency and rescue medicine and anesthesiology in Xuzhou Medical University, together with students majored in product design in Southeast University, designed a portable CPR protection device under the guidance of doctors working in department of emergency medicine of the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University, and obtained the national invention patent authorization of China (patent number: ZL 2021 1 0309001.4) and the national utility model patent authorization of China (patent number: ZL 2021 2 0591084.6). The device is composed of a foldable frame, support components, guide slide rails and compression body, which provides guidance and guarantee for the implementation of CPR, thus users can accurately grasp the implementation process, compression amplitude, strength and frequency, and effectively prevent accidental injuries such as rib fractures caused by CPR compression. The device is small, easy to store and move, with low manufacturing cost, making it suitable for social popularization.
