摘要

Purpose

The most common practice related to medical urgency and emergency is cardiopulmonary resuscitation. There were no cardiopulmonary resuscitation practices in the training of health professionals until the emergence of realistic mannequins intended for this purpose. Then, the automation of this equipment allowed the continuous improvement of the quality of the procedures through real-time feedback. This work implements a soft real-time approach to present the actions performed on the dummy in a sufficient interval to perform and correct the maneuver simultaneously.

Methods

We used the Resusci Anne® model with an embedded system composed of Arduino platforms containing a USB communication option and an ESP-01 board for Wi-Fi communication. The Arduino-based embedded system encodes actions using a Real-Time Scheduling and Multitasking library, ensuring precise timing intervals for maneuver execution and correction. Meanwhile, the ESP-01 handles Wi-Fi communication, with real-time management overseen by the supervisory system developed using Visual Studio.

Results

It was possible to allocate real-time resources considering the instrumentation requirements, the embedded systems, and the Real-Time Scheduling and Multitasking library to execute the proposed deadline for the application. In this way, it was possible to make the system achieve real-time requirements and provide feedback to the target audience of this work.

Discussion

The advent of telemedicine brings the need to transmit feedback data in real-time. Current systems still have several related limitations, such as being unable to record historical data, connect to external devices, and provide feedback on pulmonary ventilation. Therefore, selecting a reliable and sufficiently fast communication interface for real-time requirements using Wi-Fi communication plays a crucial role in such applications.

Conclusion

The automation of simulators can provide continuous improvement in the education and training of health professionals, making them more capable of performing effective maneuvers during cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Adapting the principles and technologies we have developed can contribute to a unified feedback approach focused on telemedicine in real emergencies.
