TrueCPR™ Coaching Device from Physio-Control

Performing CPR manually seems simple enough, but EMS providers know the devil is in the details. That's why the new TrueCPR™ coaching device from Physio-Control is such a game-changer for providers in the field.

Designed to improve manual CPR performance, TrueCPR is a simple-to-use tool that accurately measures manual chest compressions to optimize manual CPR by providing high-quality feedback, in both real-time and following a resuscitation event. It utilizes new triaxial field induction (TFI) technology, which has been shown to provide accurate CPR depth measurement and help guide rescuers to perform compressions of at least 2 inches (5 cm) of depth.

TFI technology is a new innovation from Physio-Control. TFI measures changes in a very low-energy 3-D magnetic field generated by a reference pad placed beneath the patient and a sensor on the patient’s chest, continuously calculating the changing distance between the two points as a caregiver performs manual compressions. Unlike accelerometer-based devices, which have been shown to overestimate chest compression depth on soft surfaces, TrueCPR measures the relative distance from the chest sensor to reference pad, regardless of patient movement.

TrueCPR can also work independently or in concert with a variety of other Physio-Control products to help improve CPR quality and patient outcomes. TrueCPR is portable and requires no connection to a monitor/defibrillator, making it compatible with a variety of manufacturers’ devices. It utilizes off-the-shelf batteries and requires no accessories, making it economical for repeated patient use.
