CPR-Pad by Ryan Helps

Designer Ryan Helps (yup, really his name) has addressed this issue with his “CPR-PAD” design. When applied to the chest, this monitor/aid shows the optimal way to push the chest correctly, clicks when proper pressure is achieved and flashes the power light for proper rhythm. Having one of these easy to understand, life-saving devices readily available in the work place or any public place would not only qualify almost anyone to perform a minor miracle, but save countless lives.

CPRGlove

Atreo Medical conceived of the CPRGlove^® technology in late 2006. The CPRGlove^® is an inexpensive tool intended for the lay-rescuer capable of assisting in an emergency. This product is a guiding hand, calmly coaching the rescuer step-by-step through the event. The CPRGlove^® reduces the anxiety associated with an unforeseen emergency by providing critical audio-visual prompting and feedback. The device reminds the rescuer of proper chest compression rates and depths and helps ensure that CPR quality is high so that the victim has a much improved chance of survival.

Pocket CPR

CPR delivery is physically and mentally demanding, and bystanders often lack confidence or are afraid they will harm the victim. PocketCPR increases confidence and reinforces skills learned in CPR training.

This FDA cleared device reminds the rescuer what to do before initiating CPR and coaches the rescuer with feedback during CPR. PocketCPR delivers ZOLL Medical Corporation’s proven Real CPR Help^® technology in a light, portable device that measures and provides real-time feedback about the rate and depth of chest compressions during CPR.

Aid-Angel

Aid-Angel hat es sich zur Aufgabe gemacht, Opfern von Verkehrsunfällen das Leben zu retten.

Leider stirbt jedes zehnte Opfer von Verkehrsunfällen auf Grund von nicht oder zu spät geleisteter Erster Hilfe. Die Überlebenschance sinkt jede Minute um 10%, wenn nicht sofort geholfen wird.

Es wird jedem Unfallzeugen unterstellt, dass er helfen möchte, jedoch halten ihn meist Angst und Unsicherheit ab, Hilfe zu leisten und somit Leben zu retten. Aid-Angel ermöglicht jedem zu helfen, und bringt das erlernte Wissen des Ersten-Hilfe-Kurses genau dann wieder in Erinnerung, wenn es gebraucht wird.

Aid-Angel ist ein intelligentes, sprachgesteuertes System neuester Technologie, welches dem Helfer ermöglicht, sich jederzeit mit einem „Virituellen Rettungsarzt“ zu unterhalten. So kann die Überlebenschance um ein Vielfaches gesteigert werden, da die Zeit bis zum Eintreffen des Rettungsdienstes mit Erster Hilfe überbrückt werden kann.

Allein die Gewissheit in der Notsituation nach einem Verkehrsunfall mit Aid-Angel nicht alleine zu sein, wird viele Unfallzeugen veranlassen zu helfen
