    Abstract: A new warning system for informing an aircrew member undergoing high acceleration, or other brain oxygen-depleting environmental stressors, of the time remaining before fatigue sets in and the aircrew member will no longer be able to maintain straining maneuvers fighting the effects of high acceleration utilizes the new discovery that pilots and other aircrew members experience performance-ending fatigue at about the same percentage level of blood oxygen saturation. The particular percentage varies individually, but is nearly always the same for a single individual. The warning system uses a non-invasive monitor to measure blood oxygen saturation at different times and to compute from those measurements the amount of time remaining before the individual percentage blood oxygen saturation at which fatigue or exhaustion will occur for that individual will be reached. That remaining time is displayed to the aircrew member on an instrument panel display. The warning system can also be used to display to an aircrew member the time remaining before a preselected level of decreased cognitive function is reached.

    Abstract: A new portable apparatus and method for sequentially pumping blood headward to assist cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and other medical procedures is disclosed. A pair of autocycling retrograde inflation trousers comprise calf and thigh encircling air bladders and abdomen covering air bladders connected in pneumatic series so that as the air bladders are filled starting with the furthermost (from the heart) calf encircling air bladders, the bladders sequentially fill to force, or milk, blood headward. The trousers are filled from an adjustable autocycling air pressure regulator connected to a standard fire department self-contained breathing apparatus air bottle. The air pressure regulator adjusts the air pressure between a higher pressure sufficient to force blood flow headward and a lower pressure sufficient to maintain peripheral vascular resistance. The autocycling inflation and deflation controlled by the air pressure regulator aids a heath care provider in timing CPR. A pulmonary face mask can also be made part of the CPR apparatus.
