Our equipment
Our Practi-Man Plus CPR training manikins are top of the range, offering many advantages, such as dual adult/child function, realistic breathing system which crucially vents through the back of the head, thus removing the possibility of cross-infection. Students can practice both head tilt and jaw thrust (used when spinal injury is suspected). The electronic monitor provides real time feedback so that student and instructor can monitor the student's progress. It can also be operated in blind mode. In either mode the feedback score is provided within 10 seconds of completing the CPR practice.
