Another issue is in the 2006 aspire trial mechanical cpr was at a rate of 80 compressions min and manual cpr was at 100 compressions min.
For laypersons however auto pulse is not a practical solution as it is expensive and requires knowledge of emergency services to administer.
They are used only when quality manual cpr is not possible such as when ems personnel are unavailable or when an extended cpr session causes fatigue.
A common problem during manual cpr is that the chest does not always recoil because of an increase in chest wall compliance softens.
Although other cpr devices provide consistent compression depth and rate the lucas device because of its integrated suction cup is the only automated device that assists the decompression phase by drawing up on the chest and returning it to neutral.
Meet lucas 3 version 3 1 the latest lucas 3 v3 1 allows professional users to tailor setup options for compression rate depth pauses alerts timer and ventilation features to meet local emergency care protocols.
Auto pulse has the ability to save lives with automated cpr.
He was on the lucas machine for 2 hours and needed nine defibs over the two cardiac arrests to come back.
