    Abstract: The present disclosure includes various examples for cooling electronics within a medical device while preventing or reducing the risk of an interior of the medical device being contaminated with a pathogen. The present disclosure includes a medical device having an air deflector to deflect potentially contaminated air from infecting a patient or caregiver. The present disclosure also includes medical devices with disinfectant devices installed to disinfect air either before entering the medical device or before exiting the device. Other examples of the present disclosure include medical devices that are sealed from outside air and fluids, and which may include a cooling device on an exterior surface which may be cleaned and/or removed after each use.

    Abstract: A cardiopulmonary resuscitation (“CPR”) device that includes a chest compression mechanism, a support structure, and a plurality of inflatable support pads. The chest compression mechanism is configured to deliver CPR chest compressions to a patient. The support structure includes a base member configured to be placed underneath a patient, and a leg configured to support the chest compression mechanism at a distance from the base member. The plurality of inflatable support pads are configured to provide lateral support to a patient's chest during use of the CPR device. Each support pad within the plurality of support pads includes a holder configured to retain and at least partially surround the adjacent support pad.

The chest compression is mechanism configured to deliver CPR chest compressions to a patient. The support structure comprises a base member configured to be placed underneath a patient, and a leg configured to support the chest compression mechanism at a distance from the base member. The plurality of inflatable support pads are disposed at a junction between the leg and the base member. The plurality of inflatable support pads are configured to provide lateral support to a patient's chest during use of the CPR device.

    Abstract: In embodiments, a CPR chest compression system includes a retention structure that can retain the patient's body, and a compression mechanism that can perform automatically CPR compressions and releases to the patient's chest. The compression mechanism can pause the performing of the CPR compressions for a short time, so that an attendant can check the patient. The CPR system can include a user interface that can output a human-perceptible check patient prompt, to alert an attendant to check the patient during the pause. The compression mechanism can during a CPR session retreat a distance away from the patient's chest whereby the patient's chest can expand without active decompression of the patient's chest beyond the chest's natural resting position.
