CARDIAC RESUSCITATOR AND MONITORING APPARATUS Abstract The disclosed apparatus attaches to the patient for monitoring the patient's condition and administering the correct electrical stimulation to a suspected heart attack victim as soon as possible after the occurrence of the attack and in the absence of medical personnel. The apparatus preferably includes an oro-pharyngeal airway pro- vided with electrodes for ascertaining electrical activity of the heart. A microphone attached to the airway, or a strain gauge applied elsewhere to the patient's body, detects bodily motion, for example respiration. If neither substantial electrical activity nor bodily motion is detec- ted, the patient is considered to be in a cardiac arrest and a pacing impulse is applied to the patient via the aforementioned airway electrodes and/or other electrodes, while if electrical activity is ascertained in the absence of bodily motion, a defibrillating pulse is applied to the patient.
