Abstract
In certain aspects, the present invention relates to CPR devices that are designed to limit the rise in intrathoracic pressure when performing CPR compressions (e.g., chest, thorax, etc.) so as to minimize increases in intracranial pressure resulting from such compressions and elevated ITP. Exemplary CPR devices of the invention generally include one or more pressure sensors and a control system configured to adjust or alert for the need to adjust the amplitude and duration of CPR compressions so as to prevent a rise in ITP above a certain threshold amount, thereby controlling the rise in ICP during CPR. Methods of controlling a rise in ICP during CPR are also provided.
