Abstract
Crush Syndrome (referred to in the rest of this document as CS) was killed many victims at earthquakes in the past, but there is no viable countermeasure even now. Therefore, we have proposed and researched rescue robot. This time, we experimented about the Mechanism of CS Preventer to be equipped on that robot. This Mechanism has a purpose that preventing the onset of CS until victim is carried by the robot to doctors waiting at a safe area. This Mechanism compress the groin by pressure materials, stem the femoral vein blood flow to prevent reperfusion. We aimed to build a low-cost and simple mechanism and measurement system.
