Abstract

This paper introduces a chest compression monitoring and feedback system based on a wireless sensors network. This system, consisting of a pressure sensor, an accelerometer and an ECG monitoring module, can acquire and process numerous vital signals of compressing pressure, acceleration and velocity, and ECG in the real-time. With the wireless network, the improved communication protocol and the monitoring user interface, the base-station can collect and analyze the chest compression signals from the distributed monitoring and feedback nods wirelessly.
