My first code involved this device. I’ll never forget that sound and the fact that the device was pressing down so hard that it looked like the patient was being pressed into the floor.
It’s so weird, unfortunately I’ve had CPR in the past, I don’t remember anything about what happened but I recognize this sound… they used this device on me, it broke some of my ribs on my backside but I made it at least. They had to do CPR multiple times for 3 days so I guess the doctors were very happy they had this device!
Manual compressions are good, but people get tired and machines do not. Scientific studies have shown wonderful results in increased perfusion when using tools like these.
It does not complicate defibrillation. The pads should always be attached before the autopulse is placed. There is an easy located pause button when you choose to defibrilate.
autopulse is better because compressions are more phisiological for heart contractility (it calculates patient chest impedence giving a perfect compression) and not dangerous for chest (while piston driven often breaks sternum. Even if it's heavier than Lucas, it's the only mechanical CPR device that can be used in movement and vertical, also with winch during rescues by Helicopter
Having this kind of technology is great but we still need to know how to perform CPR in a custom way. During the worst case scenario. Talent and skill does not grow using a technology. You can't even have those in the middle of nowhere. But that tech still have better advantage during or nearby cities.
I honestly prefer the LUCAS device over the AutoPulse, the AutoPulse is simply overpriced, the machine itself costs $931, and the Life Bands cost $100 and are only one patient use, while on the other hand the LUCAS is $16,000, which sounds like a lot, but is a one time payment, if use the AutoPulse for about a year it'll most likely reach the price of the LUCAS if not more.

My mother died from cardiac arrest. They used this exact machine.

Glad you're still with us friend
Really well done and so easy to follow. Clear and concise. Thank you.

The recording at the beginning is a show called Rescue 911. Used to be my favorite show!

"Hi! I've got my BSI on!"
Ah, EMS school/skills.
But is the scene safe!?
There always is a possibility of breaking ribs. Manual CPR breaks ribs, but you are right on...I would rather live too.
Thank u so much. I was looking for this video.
Thank you for the video 👍🏻😊
Great video, thanks for your help.
Yeah, I answered my own question much later after telling a relative about it.....lol. But thanks for answering me. :)
This is so freaking cool. Any companies use these in NYC? I've only known Bay Ridge Volunteer Ambulance Corps to carry the hardware around on rigs.
Look into the LUCAS
In Holland we've got the LUCAS cpr device, what do you think is better?
LUCAS is smaller and easier I think

Lucas, by a long shot.
Good!!
How can i get one for me iwant buy it
Very professional.. I hope Shark Tank is watching.

ベルトは単回使用なのか?
How much does Lucas cost?
I think the Lucas is $15,000. How much is the Autopulse??
thats the question.
I remember it being about 12k, could be more

that looks like that would break your ribs but I rather have that and live
😮jjiohuuu
ouch
I more video on Heath
3:50
Hi I am a fooooool
That seems worse then manual compressions. Why would this be needed instead?
Is it safe to test this on live humans. There is another video on here where they show this.
I think the Lucas is better
Autopulse is trash, Lucas for life 💯
Doesn't seem to be very environmental friendly.
Though it can save lives...
