Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Cardiovascular Devices
  • Emergency Medicine Technology

Context:

  • Prolonged use of CardioPump devices can lead to operator fatigue.
  • Fatigue may compromise the accuracy of Automated Chest Compression-Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (ACD-CPR) maneuvers.
  • Existing devices may not adequately address operator strain during extended use.

Purpose:

  • To develop and evaluate a lever mechanism designed to mitigate fatigue associated with CardioPump operation.
  • To assess the impact of the lever mechanism on the ability to perform ACD-CPR accurately over extended periods.
  • To enhance the usability and effectiveness of CardioPump devices in critical care settings.

Summary:

  • A novel lever mechanism was integrated with the CardioPump device to reduce operator fatigue.
  • The mechanism utilizes a vertical pipe, adjustable fulcrum, and a movable lever system.
  • Clinical application demonstrated the ability to maintain accurate ACD-CPR for over 30 minutes without significant operator fatigue.
  • Safety was ensured by monitoring chest wall movement for controlled range of motion.

Impact:

  • Reduced operator fatigue during prolonged ACD-CPR procedures.
  • Improved accuracy and consistency of chest compressions.
  • Potential for extended use of CardioPump devices in emergency and critical care scenarios.
  • Enhanced patient outcomes through sustained, high-quality resuscitation efforts.
