Automated CPR Devices; Used To Provide Chest Compression during Cardiac Arrest

(MENAFN- Coherent Market Insights) Automated CPR devices are medical devices that provide high-quality compression to the chest of patients suffering from sudden cardiac arrest to provide a steady flow of blood and oxygen to the brain and heart. CPR devices find application in emergency medical technician (EMT) rescue units, air medevac units, cardiac catheterization labs, coronary and intensive care units, ambulances, hospitals, and emergency medical services. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is an emergency procedure that can help save a person's life if their breath or heart stops. Its main purpose is to restore partial flow of the blood and oxygen to the heart and the brain.

Mechanical CPR devices are automated CPR devices used to provide chest compression during cardiac arrest, without the need for human-performed manual compression. CPR involves a rhythmic push on the chest of a cardiac arrest victim to further increase blood flow. This can cause blood to flow to the vital organs of the victim while the heart is not pumping. Automated CPR devices are designed to provide high-quality chest compressions and avoid interruptions in compressions without the influence of the transport environment or human factors. CPR is one of the most important techniques to save lives in an emergency.

In some cases, first aid consists of the initial support provided to someone in the middle of an emergency. This support might help them survive until professional help arrives. Thus, CPR should be included in the first aid kits for the protection of all individuals, irrespective of their age, gender, or social status. Automated CPR devices are widely used for patients suffering from sudden cardiac arrest to provide a steady flow of blood and oxygen. Thus, with the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), the demand for CPR devices is also increasing at a rapid pace.

According to the Robert Koch Institute, a German federal government agency, and research institute, cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in Germany, causing a total of approximately 40% of all deaths.
