South Central Ambulance Service launches new CPR device

AN ambulance trust has become the first in the country to rollout a new automatic CPR device. South Central Ambulance Service has launched the LUCAS 3, a new “state-of-the-art” device which can perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on a patient automatically – freeing up paramedics to carry out other vital interventions. The system can deliver high quality chest compressions consistently from the moment crews arrive and throughout a patient’s journey to hospital without interruption. The system also comes with wireless Bluetooth connectivity which makes it possible to configure compression rate, depth and alerts specific to an organisation’s resuscitation guidelines. Dr John Black, Medical Director at SCAS, said: “We know that delivering high quality and uninterrupted chest compressions in cardiac arrest is one of the major determinants of survival to hospital discharge but it can be very challenging for a number of reasons.
