Autopulse

The autopulse will likely feature more commonly in our cardiac arrests. Patients will soon start to arrive with the autopulse already in use as paramedics become familiar with it.  It can free up providers and deliver more standardised chest compressions. Plus it never tires (unless the battery runs out). But it needs to be done right...

 

So you've mastered the machine but the strap breaks, (or the battery gives out) during the arrest. Now what do you do...?
