ABSTRACT:
This invention involves an interactive external defibrillation and drug injection system for use by a human operator for treating cardiac conditions in a patient, particularly in an out-of-hospital or pre-hospital environment. The present invention may also be used within hospitals as well as where intravenous (IV) access has not been established. More specifically, this invention comprises measuring devices capable of measuring and monitoring various physiological indicators in a patient and an expert system capable of analyzing the measured data and making recommendations to an operator for treatment of the patient using any combination of defibrillation, cardioversion, transcutaneous pacing, or vascular drug delivery via intraosseous drug injection. This invention is designed to enable first responders to cardiac emergencies to provide care up to the standard of at least the beginning stages of Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS).
