Many times the first responders who find themselves in this type of emergency situation fail to deliver appropriate compressions. This is often because the compressions are too weak. Researchers have developed Rescue Aid, which is a device that helps those delivering chest compressions ensure that they are delivering compressions at the proper strength and rate. The device is designed to simplify the task by providing visual and auditory aids to the first responder letting them know if they are compressing effectively or not. Sensors within the silicone pad detect the depth of compressions and LEDs light up according to the responders compressions. An internal metronome provides the auditory signal to prompt the responder to the correct frequency. The Rescue Aid device has been tested on dummies, and will be brought to the technology market once further research has been conducted. ]]> 2019-09-25 17:50:46 UTC https://padlet.com/stacydominy/2azpnzl455r2/wish/389644285 stacydominy https://padlet.com/stacydominy/2azpnzl455r2/wish/389653570 August 1, 2019]]> 2019-09-25 18:04:28 UTC https://padlet.com/stacydominy/2azpnzl455r2/wish/389653570 stacydominy https://padlet.com/stacydominy/2azpnzl455r2/wish/389655146 1. Potentially eliminates fear of making a mistake when performing chest compressions. 
2. Aids in proper rate and depth of compression which can significantly improve the victim's chance of survival.
3.Visual and auditory prompts make the device user friendly.
4. Pad is made of silicone and is soft and flexible, making it easy to place on the victim's chest. ]]> 2019-09-25 18:06:49 UTC https://padlet.com/stacydominy/2azpnzl455r2/wish/389655146 stacydominy https://padlet.com/stacydominy/2azpnzl455r2/wish/389658814 1. Availability to general population:  What is the likelihood that most bystanders will have this device readily available?
2. Cost: Will the cost of the device make it unaffordable to the general population to have?
3. The device has only been tested on dummies at this point. 
4. How is the device powered? Will it require charging, etc? This could pose a problem for the device being charged and ready when the time comes that it is needed. ]]> 2019-09-25 18:11:29 UTC https://padlet.com/stacydominy/2azpnzl455r2/wish/389658814 stacydominy https://padlet.com/stacydominy/2azpnzl455r2/wish/389662717 It is my opinion that the Rescue Aid device designed to help deliver accurate chest compressions could be a major innovation in medical technology. I can understand the value of this type of device, but I question the actual availability of the device to the general population. Perhaps this device could be paired with AED devices that are often available in locations such as shopping malls, airports, and amusement parks. I do not believe that your average everyday bystander will have this type of device on hand in the event of an emergency. I do believe that the device could be a useful tool for EMS personnel to have on hand to use. I also think that it could be a useful teaching tool for CPR and ACLS classes when teaching the proper depth and rate for effective chest compressions. ]]> 2019-09-25 18:16:55 UTC https://padlet.com/stacydominy/2azpnzl455r2/wish/389662717 stacydominy https://padlet.com/stacydominy/2azpnzl455r2/wish/389667967 Eitner, J., & Righi, M.
