ECG AND DEFIBRILLATOR ELECTRODE DETECTION AND TRACKING SYSTEM

A resuscitation system for aiding a user in providing resuscitative treatment to a patient, said system comprising: a first electrode with a first motion sensor assembly, a second electrode with a second motion sensor assembly; and at least one processor, with memory, power supply and other processing components, the processor configured to: analyze motion signals from the motion sensor assemblies to determine the location of the first and second electrode relative to each other and/or orientation of the first and second electrodes; determine whether the first and second electrodes are placed in an anterior-posterior, A-P, or an anterior-apex, A-A position; and estimate the depth of chest compressions during CPR differently based on whether the first electrode and the second electrode are determined to be in an A-P position, or an A-A position; and provide feedback for guidance to a user giving resuscitative treatment regarding the estimated depth of chest compressions.
