	abstract = {<p>A method for performing CPR, comprising activating an application on one or more mobile phones having one or more sensors, placing one or more mobile phones on the finger of a subject to collect information about the subject, determining whether CPR is necessary based on the collected information about the subject, calibrating the sensors of the one or more mobile phones, placing the one or more mobile phones in a position on a hand of a user of the one or more mobile phones, administering chest compressions to the subject, activating a sensor of the one or more mobile phones, including an accelerometer sensor, to permit the application to capture information about the chest compression rate and displacement relating to movement of the chest of the subject, and transmitting the chest compression rate and displacement information of the subject to the emergency dispatcher using the mobile phone.</p>

	abstract = {<p>Timely cardio pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can mean the difference between life and death. A trained person may not be available at emergency sites to give CPR. Normally, a 9-1-1 operator gives verbal instructions over the phone to a person giving CPR. In this paper, we discuss the use of smartphones to assist in administering CPR more efficiently and accurately. The two important CPR parameters are the frequency and depth of compressions. In this paper, we used smartphones to calculate these factors and to give real-time guidance to improve CPR. In addition, we used an application to measure oxygen saturation in blood. If blood oxygen saturation falls below an acceptable threshold, the person giving CPR can be asked to do mouth-to-mouth breathing. The 9-1-1 operator receives this information real time and can further guide the person giving CPR. Our experiments show accuracy \&gt;90\% for compression frequency, depth, and oxygen saturation.</p>
