CPR Devices

ResQPOD and ResQPump are two new devices now being tested that have shown much improved results for CPR on hearth failure patients.  ResQPOD is a one-way valve that fits a ventilation tube and blocks air from moving into the lungs during a decompression phase.  ResQPUMP is a suction device that adheres to the chest, physically amplifying both compression and decompression.  Because these tools allow more blood to reach the brain, a patient can regain consciousness even without a heart beat.  MORE
