1 Description and Indications for Use

The CPRmeter with Q-CPR
powered by a replaceable battery. The CPRmeter is intended for use by
responders who have been trained in CPR and use of the CPRmeter.
The CPRmeter is used as a guide in administering cardiopulmonary
resuscitation (CPR) to a suspected sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) victim at
least 8 years old. If in doubt about the appropriateness for use, perform CPR
without using the CPRmeter.
When attached to the bare chest of a suspected victim of SCA, the
CPRmeter provides real-time feedback on CPR compressions in accordance
with current CPR guidelines. It displays CPR feedback indicators for depth,
release, and rate of chest compressions. It also counts the number of
compressions in a series, and provides notification of lack of expected CPR
activity.
Caution: Federal law (USA) restricts the CPRmeter to sale by or on the
order of a physician.
WARNING: The CPRmeter is not intended for use on SCA victims under
8 years old.
IMPORTANT NOTE: CPR cannot assure survival, no matter how well it is
performed. In some patients, the underlying problem causing the cardiac
arrest is not survivable despite any available care.
