1. Intended use
SimCPR
®
Pro Trainer
is a training tool for CPR-rescuers to optimize their CPR-skills.
Indication of use:
This device is only to be used for training chest compressions for adults (> 12 years) and for
SimCPR
®
-feedback simulation.
2. Description
SimCPR
®
Pro Trainer shows users if chest compressions are compliant with the international
CPR-guidelines on depth and rate.
When the green LED is continuously on, compression-decompression is at least 2 inches
(5cm) and rate between 100-120 bpm.
The rescuer wears the
SimCPR® Pro Trainer
on the wrist of the left or right hand.
As educated, the rescuer always keeps
contact with the chest of the manikin during
compressions and does not lean on the chest
after release (decompression).
If the
SimCPR
®
Pro Trainer
is worn on the
upper hand, this hand should keep in contact
with the underlying hand. This ensures that the results of the depth measurements are
accurate.
Ensure that the wristband is tight enough around the wrist to ensure that there is no
slackness, so that the wristband exactly follows the movement of the wrist.
In case the LED lights are not clearly visible during CPR, the
Trainer
can also be worn on the
back of the upper hand. In this way the first responder is looking straight into the LED’s.
Feedback on CPR quality is provided by a red and green LED light. The frequency of the
flashing of the LED lights indicates the correct chest compression rate (110/min).
The red flashing LED indicates that compression-decompression movement is not enough (<
5 cm/2 inches). This means chest compressions are not deep enough and/or there is no full
recoil of the chest.
The green flashing LED indicates that compression-decompression depth is adequate (≥ 5
cm/2 inches). When the green LED is continuously on, both debt (≥ 5cm/2 inches) and
tempo (100-120bpm) are correct.
This form of simple feedback optimizes the quality of chest compressions.
