Abstract:
Data of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation performed on a mannequin was collected via wearable instrumentation (using the MYO device). The data were collected for both "good" CPR and for performance of CPR with common errors introduced intentionally for this study. The data are labelled according to the error, and contain a variety of derived measurements. Data collected were used toward "Development of a novel cardiopulmonary resuscitation measurement tool using real-time feedback from wearable wireless instrumentation' (Ward et al., 2019) in which full context is available'. The data are available at Mendeley Data, doi:10.17632/pvjghfjmy4.1 (Ward et al., 2019).

Equipments Used To Measure Blood Pressure
This invasive approach involves cannulating a peripheral artery. During each cardiac contraction, pressure generates mechanical motion within the catheter, transmitted through rigid, fluid-filled tubing to a transducer. This transducer converts mechanical motion into electrical signals displayed as waveforms on a monitor. An automatic flushing system prevents blood backflow. Due to the potential risk of unexpected arterial blood loss, this method is primarily used in intensive...
