Abstract

A system includes a first computing device comprising a processor coupled to a memory. The processor and the memory are configured to receive at least one of (i) information indicative of treatment of a victim by a first caregiver using the first computing device and (ii) information indicative of a health status of the victim; determine that treatment of the victim by the first caregiver using the first computing device is completed; and transmit the received information to a second computing device.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A system for reviewing patient information as a result of medical treatment, comprising:
a defibrillation device comprising one or more electrodes;
storage for storing one or more treatment profiles comprising patient treatment data;
a display interface configured to present the patient treatment data of the one or more treatment profiles, wherein the patient treatment data comprises one or more representations of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals associated with the one or more treatment profiles;
one or more controls configured to control presentation of the patient treatment data by the display interface; and
at least one processor coupled to a memory, the at least one processor and the memory configured to perform operations comprising:
receiving, from the defibrillation device, the patient treatment data comprising a plurality of ECG signals,
storing, in a particular treatment profile of the storage, the plurality of ECG signals,
retrieving, from the storage, particular patient treatment data of the particular treatment profile of the one or more treatment profiles, the particular patient treatment data comprising at least one ECG signal of the plurality of ECG signals,
in response to receiving a first signal from the one or more controls, causing the display interface to present at least a first portion of the at least one ECG signal, the first portion corresponding to a first period of time, and
in response to receiving a second signal from the one or more controls, causing the display interface to present at least a second portion of the at least one ECG signal, the second portion corresponding to a second period of time that is different from the first period of time,
wherein the one or more controls are configured to enable selection of the at least one ECG signal from the plurality of ECG signals.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein display interface is configured to present the plurality of ECG signals as a list, and wherein the plurality of ECG signals are ordered chronologically in the list according to a time that each ECG signal of the plurality was generated.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one ECG signal is associated with an indicator indicative of whether the at least one ECG signal represents a shockable rhythm or a non-shockable rhythm, and wherein the display interface is configured to present the indicator in association with the at least one ECG signal.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one ECG signal is associated with a timestamp representing a time at which patient treatment data comprising at least one ECG signal is generated, and wherein the display interface is configured to present the timestamp in association with the at least one ECG signal.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the particular patient treatment data comprises one or more of SpO 2 data, CO 2 data, ventilation data, chest compression data, and narrative data, wherein the particular patient treatment data is contemporaneous with a time period during which a portion of the at least one ECG signal is measured, and wherein the display interface is configured to present the particular patient treatment data in association with the portion of the at least one ECG signal in response to receiving a third signal from the one or more controls.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one ECG signal is associated with pathology data indicative of a cardiac pathology represented by the at least one ECG signal, the cardiac pathology comprising one or more of pulseless electrical activity (PEA), ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), ventricular arrhythmia, atrial arrhythmia, and preeclampsia, and wherein the display interface is configured to present the pathology data in association with the at least one ECG signal.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one ECG signal is associated with type data indicative of a type of rhythm represented by the at least one ECG signal, the type of rhythm comprising one or more of ventricular fibrillation and asystole rhythm, and wherein the display interface is configured to display the type data in association with the at least one ECG signal.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein a length of the at least one ECG signal corresponds to a predetermined length of time preceding a determination by a defibrillating device of whether to deliver shock therapy to a patient.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the predetermined length of time is between approximately 9-15 seconds.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one the ECG signal corresponds to an initial treatment period during which a defibrillating device system is being connected to a patient.

11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations comprise:
filtering, in response to a third signal from the one or more controls, a plurality of ECG signals in the particular patient treatment data based on one or more of data indicative of a cardiac pathologies represented by each ECG signal of the plurality, data indicative of a type of rhythm represented by each ECG signal, a timestamp associated with each ECG signal, and narrative data associated with by each ECG signal; and
causing the display interface to present one or more ECG signals of the particular patient treatment data that are filtered from the plurality of ECG signals.

12. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations comprise receiving data indicating that a defibrillating device is disconnected from a patient, and
in response to receiving the data indicating that a defibrillating device is disconnected, transmitting the at least one ECG signal to at least one of the storage and the display interface for presentation of a representation of the at least one ECG signal.

13. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations comprise receiving data indicating that a treatment of a patient is completed, and
in response to receiving the data indicating that a defibrillating device is disconnected, transmitting the at least one ECG signal to at least one of the storage and the display interface for presentation of the particular patient treatment data comprising the at least one ECG signal.

14. The system of claim 1 , wherein receiving, from the defibrillation device, the patient treatment data comprising the plurality of ECG signals comprises receiving the patient treatment data from a cloud computing system.

15. The system of claim 1 , wherein receiving, from the defibrillation device, the patient treatment data comprising the plurality of ECG signals comprises receiving the patient treatment data from a physical connection to the defibrillation device.

16. One or more non-transitory computer readable media comprising instructions executable by one or more processors, the instructions configured to cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
receiving, from a defibrillation device comprising one or more electrodes, patient treatment data comprising a plurality of ECG signals; and
storing, in a particular treatment profile, the plurality of ECG signals;
retrieving particular patient treatment data of the particular treatment profile, the particular patient treatment data comprising at least one ECG signal of the plurality of ECG signals;
in response to receiving a first signal from one or more controls, causing a display interface to present at least a first portion of the at least one ECG signal, the first portion corresponding to a first period of time; and
in response to receiving a second signal from the one or more controls, causing the display interface
