[ We claim:] [1.] A resuscitation and alert system comprising:a resuscitation device comprising a chest compression device having a compression belt and a buckle for securing the compression belt around the chest of the victim; andsensing means for determining when the resuscitation device is in use, said sensing means capable of generating a signal indicating that the resuscitation device is in use and transmitting said signal to other components of the system;wherein the sensing means comprises a sensor which senses when the buckle has been latched, thereby treating the buckled condition of the compression belt as an indication that the resuscitation device is in use;computer storage means for storing information corresponding to the location of the resuscitation device;communicating means for communicating with an emergency medical system;computer control means for receiving input from the sensing means, and controlling the communicating means to initiate communication with emergency medical system whenever the input from the sensing means indicates that the device is in use, and communicating the information corresponding to the location of the resuscitation device.
