[0039] FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) system according to an embodiment.

[0040] Referring to FIG. 1, a CPR system 1 according to an embodiment may record and analyze a CPR operation performed by a user U and provide an analysis result obtained therefrom to the user U, thereby providing effective CPR training to the user U. The user U may refer to herein an individual person who practices CPR themselves using a training device 11.

[0041] The CPR system 1 may be customized and editable for a client C to provide functions and items desired by the client C. The client C may refer to herein a customer who desires to use the CPR system 1. The client C may include, for example, a hospital, a fire station, a government office, an enterprise, a school, or the like.

[0042] According to an embodiment, the CPR system 1 may include the training device 11, a terminal 12, and a server 13.

[0043] The training device 11 may be a device with which the user U may practice CPR. The training device 11 may have a similar exterior to a human body to provide the user U with a similar feeling to that they have in a real situation. For example, the training device 11 may have an external shape according to a standard human body shape. The training device 11 may be classified into one for adults, one for children, and one for infants, and may include a mannequin having an appearance of an adult, a child, and an infant, respectively. The training device 11 may be configured such that a series of operations for CPR, for example, chest compression, ensuring free airway, artificial ventilation, and the like, is performed

[0044] The terminal 12 may be a separate device capable of communicating with the training device 11. The terminal 12 may include a display and/or a speaker to visually and/or audibly provide information to the user U. The terminal 12 may include, for example, a smartphone, a tablet, a personal computer (PC), a personal digital assistant (PDA), a smartwatch, or the like, and may use applications or websites. The terminal 12 may communicate with a plurality of training devices 11.

[0045] The server 13 may communicate with the terminal 12. For example, the server 13 may communicate with a plurality of terminals 12 individually. The server 13 may perform an operation of analyzing information provided by the terminal 12. In addition, the server 13 may provide a manager page 130 to the client C. The manager page 130 will be described later.

[0046] The server 13 may assign a unique client identification (ID) to each client C. The client C may access the manager page 130 with an assigned corresponding client ID. The client C may edit a screen to be displayed on the terminal 12 on the manager page 130. The edited screen may be displayed on the terminal 12 logged in with the client ID. That is, the client C may directly edit the screen to be displayed on the terminal 12 on the manager page 130 of the server 13 using the unique client ID, and log in with the client ID in the terminal 12 to display the screen directly edited by the client C. That is, such a configuration may implement a screen configuration of the terminal 12 unique to each client C.

[0047] The screen displayed on the terminal 12 may include at least one of a title, an image, a video, or a training program 21.

[0048] The client C may edit the title to be displayed on the screen of the terminal 12 through the manager page 130. In addition, the client C may select an image and/or a video to be displayed on the screen of the terminal 12 through the manager page 130. For example, the client C may allow an image or video introducing the corresponding client C or an image or video guiding CPR training to be displayed on the terminal 12.

[0049] FIG. 2 illustrates a screen displayed on a terminal of a CPR system according to an embodiment. FIG. 3 illustrates a screen for editing a training program on a manager page of a server of a CPR system according to an embodiment. FIG. 4 illustrates a screen for editing in detail a training program on a manager page of a server of a CPR system according to an embodiment.

[0050] Referring to FIGS. 2 to 4, a client C may edit the training program 21 to be displayed on the terminal 12 through the manager page 130. The training program 21 may be a CPR training program configured in advance by the client C. For example, the client C may set or configure a training program 21 for each type 22 of training device 11. The set training program 21 for each type 22 of training device 11 may be displayed on a screen of the terminal 12 to correspond to each type 22 of a training device connected to the terminal 12. For example, when a training device 11 for adults is connected to the terminal 12, a training program 21 for adults may be displayed on the screen of the terminal 12, and when a training device 11 for infants is connected to the terminal 12, a training program 21 for infants may be displayed. The client C may set a title 23 for each type 22 of training device 11. The set title 23 for each type 22 of training device 11 may be displayed on the screen of the terminal 12 to correspond to a type 22 of a training device connected to the terminal 12.

[0051] As shown in FIG. 4, a client C may set detailed contents of each training program 21 through the manager page 130. For example, the client C may set at least one of a training title 211, a training type 212, a feedback type 213, an auto-stop 214, a chest compression-to-ventilation ratio 215, a rescue ventilation 216, a certificate issuance 217, a display icon 218, a display number 219, or a display position 210 of each training program 21.

[0052] The client C may set the training title 211 and the display icon 218 of each training program 21. The display icon 218 may include, for example, icons of various items such as CPR, chest compression, artificial ventilation, and certificates. As shown in FIG. 2, the training title 211 and the display icon 218 may be displayed together on the screen of the terminal 12. A user U may thereby identify the contents of the training program 21 through the training title 211 and the display icon 218 displayed on the terminal 12.

[0053] The client C may set the training type 212 of each training program 21. The training type 212 may include CPR training, chest compression training, and artificial ventilation training. The client C may set the feedback type 213 of each training program 21. The feedback type 213 may include a graph type and a timer type. The client C may set the auto-stop 214 of each training program 21. The auto-stop 214 may be a function of automatically ending training after a predetermined operation or a predetermined time. The client C may set whether to apply the auto-stop 214 of each training program 21, and when applying the auto-stop 214, the client C may set at least one of an end cycle, an end compression number, an end ventilation number, or an end time. The client C may set the chest compression-to-ventilation ratio 215 of each training program 21. The chest compression-to-ventilation ratio 215 may include 30:2, 15:2, and 3:1. Accordingly, the client C may configure a client-customized training program by setting the chest compression-to-ventilation ratio 215 corresponding to a corresponding client CPR protocol. The client C may set whether to perform the rescue ventilation 216 of each training program 21. The client C may set whether to issue the certificates 217 for each training program 21. A certificate described herein may be a certificate to be issued when the user U performs a corresponding training program 21 according to standards.

[0054] The client C may set the display number 219 and the display position 210 of each training program 21. For example, the client C may rearrange a position of a training program 21 by dragging a block, and may set a desired number of training programs 21 by adjusting the display number 219.

[0055] By this configuration, each client C may be able to configure a screen to be displayed on the terminal 12 autonomously, and each client C may thus configure an individual training program 21. Therefore, a plurality of clients C may configure their own training programs 21 using the same CPR system 1, and thus the degree of freedom of each client C may increase. In addition, even for clients C having different CPR protocols, they may be able to configure their training programs 21 individually, and it may thus be possible to improve the versatility of the CPR system 1 and convenience in the maintenance of the CPR system 1.

[0056] FIG. 5 illustrates a screen for managing user accounts on a manager page of a server of a CPR system according to an embodiment.

[0057] Referring to FIG. 5, a client C may manage a user account 51 of each user U on the manager page 130. For example, the client C may create and edit the user account 51. The user account 51 may be a unique account created for each user U. The user account 51 may include information about a name, an email, a password, and the like of a user U. The user U may log in to the terminal 12 with the user account 51. For example, when the client C logs in to the terminal 12 with a client ID, the user U may log in to the terminal 12 with the user account 51. When the user U logs in to the terminal 12 with the user account 51 and performs training using the training device 11, CPR training information of the user U may be transmitted to the server 13. The server 13 may then record received CPR training information for each user U. The server 13 may also provide statistics on the CPR training information for each user U. In addition, the client C may edit items indicated in the statistics on the CPR training information for each user U on the manager page 130. For example, the statistics on the CPR training information for each user U may include items related to user information, a training device type, a chest compression depth, a chest compression speed, a chest compression position, a ventilation volume, the number of training sessions, a training period, a training time, an assessment result, or the like. The statistics may be provided as graphs or charts.

[0058] When the CPR training for the user U progresses, the training device 11 may transmit CPR operation information of the user U to the terminal 12. The CPR operation information of the user U may include, for example, at least one of a chest compression depth, a chest compression speed, a chest compression position, or a ventilation volume. During the CPR training, the terminal 12 may obtain and store the CPR operation information of the user U transmitted from the training device 11. In addition, the terminal 12 may provide the CPR operation information on a CPR operation performed by the user U on the training device 11 to the user U in real time. The user U may receive feedback on the CPR operation by monitoring their own CPR operation information through the terminal 12 in real time.

[0059] When the CPR training for the user U ends, the terminal 12 may transmit the stored CPR operation information of the user U to the server 13. That is, the terminal 12 may communicate with the training device 11 while the CPR training is being performed, and may communicate with the server 13 when the CPR training ends. This configuration may reduce communication interface and may thus improve system stability.

[0060] The server 13 may analyze the received CPR operation information of the user U. The server 13 may indicate, as numbers, the CPR operation information and calculate an assessment result of assessing the CPR operation of the user U. The server 13 may transmit the calculated assessment result to the terminal 12, and the terminal 12 may display the received assessment result on the screen. The user U may receive feedback on the CPR operation through the assessment result displayed on the terminal 12. When such an operation of analyzing the CPR operation information and calculating the assessment result is performed as described above in the server 13 instead of the terminal 12, a system manager may update an assessment algorithm onto the server 13 and may thereby collectively manage it. That is, when updating the assessment algorithm, updating the server 13, instead of individual terminals 12, may thereby enable collective updating and reduce a burden on system management and increase convenience in management.

[0061] In addition, the terminal 12 may issue a certificate based on the assessment result. For example, when the assessment result satisfies a predetermined standard, the terminal 12 may issue the certificate indicating that the user U has completed a training program. The certificate may be transmitted to an email stored in the user account 51. FIG. 6 illustrates a screen for editing a certificate on a manager page of a server of a CPR system according to an embodiment. Referring to FIG. 6, a client C may edit items indicated in a certificate on the manager page 130. For example, the client C may edit a certificate title 61, a certificate content 62, an attached image 63, a certification period 64, a certificate number 65, a certification date 66, or the like.

[0062] FIG. 7 illustrates a screen showing training device usage statistics for each training device provided on a manager page of a server of a CPR system according to an embodiment.

[0063] Referring to FIG. 7, the server 13 may provide training device usage statistics for each training device 11 on the manager page 130. The server 13 may store training device usage records of each training device 11 and process the statistics. For example, the server 13 may display the number of times of use of each type of training device 11 by month or year in a graph. A client C may then check the usage statistics for each training device 11 and determine the demand for each type of training device 11.

[0064] FIGS. 8 and 9 are block diagrams illustrating a plurality of instances of a server of a CPR system according to an embodiment.

[0065] Referring to FIGS. 8 and 9, the server 13 may include a plurality of instances when communicating with the terminal 12. Referring to FIG. 8, the server 13 may include a main instance 131 and at least one auxiliary instance 132. The terminal 12 may be configured to communicate with the main instance 131 by default. However, when the main instance 131 goes down, the terminal 12 may communicate with the auxiliary instance 132. This configuration may separate the main and the auxiliary and may thereby improve server stability. Alternatively, referring to FIG. 9, the server 13 may include a plurality of instances 133. The terminal 12 may communicate with an instance having a highest reaction speed among the plurality of instances 133. This configuration may prevent traffic concentration and may thereby improve server stability.

[0066] A number of example embodiments have been described above. Nevertheless, it should be understood that various technical changes and modifications may be made to these embodiments. For example, suitable results may be achieved if the described techniques are performed in a different order and/or if components in a described system, architecture, device, or circuit are combined in a different manner and/or replaced or supplemented by other components or their equivalents.

[0067] Accordingly, other implementations are within the scope of the following claims.
