Abstract [en]

This paper describes the implementation of a cross-platform software application to aid ambulance paramedics during CPR (Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation). It must be able to work both on iOS and Android devices, which are the leading platforms in the mobile industry. The goal of the application is to guide paramedics in the different processes and expected medication to be administered during a cardiac arrest, a scenario that is usually stressful and fast-paced, thus prone to errors or distractions. The tool must provide timely reminders of the different actions to be performed during a cardiac arrest, and in an appropriate order, based on the results of the previous actions. A timer function will also control the duration of each step of the CPR procedure. The application is implemented in React Native which, using JavaScript as programming language, allows to deploy applications that can run both in iOS and Android native languages. Our solution could also serve as a record of events that could be transmitted (even in real-time) to the hospital without demanding explicit verbal communication of the procedures or medications administered to the patient during the ambulance trip. This would provide even higher efficiency in the process, and would allow automatic incorporation of the events to the medical record of the patient as well. © 2021 IEEE.
