CPR manikin with feedback explained
What the monitor shows, and why a Kenyan skills lab pays KSh 210,000 for electronic feedback.
A CPR manikin with monitoring feedback is an adult trainer that displays compression depth and rate on an electronic console. The unit on this site is KSh 210,000. A trainer without a monitor is cheaper. It cannot tell a class whether 5 cm and 100 compressions a minute actually happened.
What the console flags
- Hand position on the sternum
- Depth (too shallow, correct, too deep)
- Ventilation volume
- Cycle count for 30:2 drills
Who needs it
Instructor-led BLS rooms, KMTC skills labs and hospital resuscitation drills. Pair with the infant CPR manikin. Adult feedback does not teach infant hand position. See adult vs infant and the product page.
