Q-CPR®
A Measurement and Feedback Technology
Life saving CPR is dependent on several coordinated factors, as illustrated in the Quality Circle:
Therapy – guiding feedback during resuscitation
Training – guiding feedback during initial and maintenance training
Evaluation – post event debriefing and periodic system statistics

What is Q-CPR Technology?Research has documented that patient outcome can be significantly improved by better quality CPR. Q-CPR™ is an exciting new technology developed by Laerdal, the result of collaboration with many leading CPR research centers over recent years. |

Q-CPR ProductsQ-CPR is a new clinical measurement and feedback tool that will have a major impact on the quality of CPR that is delivered by professional rescuers in the field. Furthermore, we feel confident that this improvement in CPR quality will have a direct. |

Q-CPR ResearchPlease, consider the following: • Research demonstrates that the quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) has a direct effect on patient outcome from cardiac arrest. • Research also indicates caregivers, on the whole, do not perform CPR within established guidelines associated with compression rate and depth, duration of no compression activity (or “hands-off” time), and ventilation rate. |
