Abstract

Systems and methods for cardiopulmonary resuscitation feedback are disclosed. According to an aspect, a method includes determining a force. The method also includes, in response to determining the force, acquiring spatial orientation data, remove the effects of gravity, and wirelessly or wired method of communicating the spatial orientation data.

Claims

1. A method of cardiopulmonary resuscitation feedback, the method comprising:

determining a force; and

in response to determining the force;

acquiring spatial orientation data; and

one of wirelessly or through wired communication communicating the spatial orientation data.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein determining a force comprises using an accelerometer.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein acquiring spatial orientation data comprises using one of an accelerometer and a magnetometer.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein wirelessly communicating the spatial orientation data via a wireless transmission component.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein wirelessly communicating the spatial orientation data comprises communicating the spatial orientation data to a computing device.

6. The method of claim 1, further comprising communicating data indicating the force to a computing device.

7. A system of cardiopulmonary resuscitation feedback, the system comprising:

at least one processor and memory configured to;

determine a force; and

a communication component configured to;

acquire spatial orientation data in response to determining the force; and

communicate the spatial orientation data via one of wireless and wired communication.

8. The system of claim 7, further comprising an accelerometer configured to determine the force.

9. The system of claim 7, further comprising one of an accelerometer and a magnetometer configured to acquire the spatial orientation data.

10. The system of claim 7, wherein the communication component is a wireless transmission component configured to wirelessly communicate the spatial orientation data.

11. The system of claim 7, wherein the communication component is a wireless transmission component configured to communicate the spatial orientation data to a computing device.

12. The system of claim 7, wherein the communication component is a wireless transmission component configured to communicate data indicating the force to a computing device.
