Desarrollo de un simulador educativo biomédico con retroalimentación guiada mediante sensores de presión, detección óptica y monitoreo de ventilación para el entrenamiento de RCP

Abstract

This thesis addresses the development and implementation of an electronic simulation system designed for CPR training through the incorporation of sensors and a mobile training application. The project arose from the need for affordable tools that allow for the objective assessment of chest compressions and ventilations, in line with the parameters established by international organizations. To develop the system, force, motion, and environmental detection sensors were incorporated and connected to a microcontroller with wireless communication capabilities. The electronic design made it possible to obtain variables such as compression frequency, chest release, and ventilation, while the mobile application streamlined the real-time visualization and monitoring of user performance. The results achieved demonstrate the successful integration of hardware and software, allowing fundamental parameters to be recorded during practice. The system was able to detect variations in technique and generate immediate feedback, contributing to more structured and supervised training. In summary, the prototype developed is a functional technological tool for learning CPR, providing objective measurements and promoting progressive improvement of technique through digital monitoring.
