    Abstract: An intelligent rechargeable battery pack having a battery management system for monitoring and controlling the charging and discharging of the battery pack is described. The battery management system includes primary and secondary protection circuits for monitoring the charging and discharging of the battery. Individual battery cells forming the battery pack are connected by a main bus to a connector for connection to a battery charger or a device to be powered, and the main bus may be interrupted by a switch controlled by the battery management system to prevent damage to the battery during charging or discharging of the battery.

    Abstract: Cold plates (30, 32) through which refrigerant flows define a slot (34) between them that can receive a cassette (50) through which sterile working fluid with a relatively low flow rate flows from an intravascular heat exchange catheter (12). The working fluid from the catheter (12) is heated or cooled by heat exchange with the cold plates (30, 32) through the walls of the cassette (50) to maintain the sterility of the working fluid. On the other hand, high flow rate working fluid chambers surround the cold plates (30, 32) and non-sterile working fluid from an external heat exchange pad (14) flows through the high flow rate working fluid chambers to exchange heat through direct contact with the cold plates (30, 32).

    Abstract: METHOD OF DETERMINING DEPTH OF COMPRESSIONS DURING CARDIO-PULMONARY RESUSCITATION A system for the determination of compression depth during the administration of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on a patient is provided. The system comprises a compression monitor (2) adapted to move in accordance with the chest of the patient (1), the compression monitor (2) is operable to provide an acceleration signal. The system further comprises a reference sensor (119) adapted to move in accordance with a surface (80) supporting the patient (1), the reference sensor (119) operable to provide a reference signal, and a processor configured to combine the acceleration signal and the reference signal from the reference sensor (119) to determine the compression depth. The determined compression depth takes into account motion of the surface (80).

    Abstract: ELECTRO-MECHANICAL CHEST COMPRESSION DEVICE The invention in an aspect concerns an electro-mechanical chest compression device (2). The device comprises a housing (6) operable to support a patient's back, a motor (79) disposed in the housing and a drive spool (42) operably attached to the motor, wherein the motor is capable of rotating the drive spool. The device further comprises a belt (3) attached to the drive spool, the belt being capable of extending at least partially around the chest of a patient, wherein rotation of the drive spool tightens the belt to compress the chest of the patient. The device also includes a spline (65) attached to the belt and a slot (43) disposed in the drive spool. The slot is sized and dimensioned to engage the spline when the belt is attached to the drive spool.

    Abstract: COMPRESSION BELT SYSTEM FOR USE WITH CHEST COMPRESSION A compression belt cartridge (5) has a double-oar shaped belt (3) and a cover plate (44) through which the belt (3) is threaded. The cover plate (44) is provided with hooks (51, 52, 53, 54) and snap latches (47, 48, 49, 50) that fit into a belt drive platform (4). The cover plate (44) sized and dimensioned to fit within only selected platforms. 10 The belt (3) attaches to the means for tightening (42) the belt (3) via a spline (66) attached to the belt (3). The means for tightening (42) a belt (3) then receptively tightens the belt (3), thereby accomplishing chest compressions.
