PocketCPR from ZOLL Medical Corporation is a palm-sized cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) device that measures the rate and depth of chest compressions administered by rescuers. To use, the rescuer simply positions PocketCPR on the victim’s chest, the rescuer’s hands are placed directly on top of the device, and prompts are followed for CPR chest compressions. The device uses an ADI digital iMEMS accelerometer to convert the motion of PocketCPR into real-time measurement data to accurately read the rate and depth of CPR chest compressions. PocketCPR provides the user with prompts to encourage compressions to the American Heart Association (AHA) recommended depth of 1.5 to 2 inches. The device instructs the rescuer to “push harder” if the compressions are less than 1.5 inches. If good compressions are delivered, PocketCPR will respond with “good compressions.” A metronome helps the user achieve the proper rate of compression. PocketCPR also coaches a rescuer with audio and visual instructions to initiate the steps needed for reviving someone experiencing sudden cardiac arrest. These steps include checking responsiveness, calling for help and performing CPR. All steps follow the AHA Chain of Survival. PocketCPR has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration as an over-the-counter rescue device and is priced at $149. See how the device works at .
