FEATURES

  • What is CPREzy? A device to aid the effectiveness and consistency of chest compressions in training AND during cardiac arrest. CPREzy helps ensure correct administration of CPR, and thus can improve the resuscitation process and success rate.
  • Why is effective CPR important? Brain damage can start occurring within 3-4 mins of cardiac arrest.
  • Effective CPR should begin within the first 60 seconds to maximize patient survival.
  • “Resuscitation devices, like CPREzy, that provide voice prompts, visual aids, and audio signals optimize rescuer performance of CPR.”


EDITORIAL REVIEWS


Product Description
What is CPREzy? A device to aid the effectiveness and consistency of chest compressions in training AND during cardiac arrest. Why is effective CPR important? Brain damage can start occurring within 3-4 mins of cardiac arrest. Effective CPR should begin within the first 60 seconds to maximize patient survival. Chances of survival reduce by 10% for every minute of inactivity. Many heart attacks each year,70% happen out of hospital. Issues in Performing good CPR: Knowing, remembering and being able to apply and maintain the correct compression rate. Knowing and being able to apply the correct pressure; fractured rib or punctured lung may be caused by excessive pressure, (45% can suffer internal injury) or worse still – CPR may not be effective due to insufficient pressure. Fatigue; CPR performance can decline by as much as 80% in the first minute due to rescuer fatigue– often without the rescuer knowing (Ochoa FJ. et al, Resuscitation 1998). Skill loss; research confirms skill loss starting after just 2 weeks and by 6 months, skills retention may be as low as 10% (RC(UK))
