    Abstract: A chest compressor includes a piston (14) that moves in downward and upward strokes, with the piston undergoing a smooth reversal at the bottom of the downward stroke. A compression spring such as a wave spring (60), is positioned to engage the piston only near the end of its downward stroke, to smoothly reverse the piston motion, limit downward force on the patient at the end of the stroke, and avoid a downward pulse due to the momentum of the downwardly-moving piston. A stop (90, 92) is latchable in an inward position to allow reduction in the piston stroke by engaging an outward flange (56) on the piston before the piston has moved fully downward.

    Abstract: A suction cup on the end of a piston of a mechanical CPR device can be automatically attached to a patient's torso. The mechanical CPR device can extend the piston until a first position at which the suction cup comes into contact with the patient's torso. The piston can be further extended to cause air to be forced out from an area between the suction cup and the patient's torso until a first threshold is reached. The piston can be retracted until the suction cup is at the first position. The piston can be further retracted from the first position until a second threshold is exceeded. The piston can then be extended to a second point at which the second threshold is no longer exceeded.

    Abstract: Presented herein are various adjustable support apparatus and methods for using the same. The apparatus comprises a cover defining a user-facing surface, at least a portion of the user-facing surface defining a plurality of raised members. The apparatus includes an adjustment mechanism that enables a user to selectively and incrementally increase the pressure exerted by the user-facing surface of the support apparatus and, specifically, the raised members, on the back of the user. In one embodiment, the adjustment mechanism comprises a bladder at least partially enclosed by the cover; and wherein the bladder is structured to be inflated or deflated so as to urge the user-facing surface and plurality of raised members toward or away from the user, respectively, so as to increase or decrease, respectively, the force exerted by the raised members against the user.
