PRESS RELEASE
MOBILE, AL USA Health University Hospital announced April 15 that it is now equipped with the LUCAS Chest Compression System, a battery-powered device that performs automated chest compressions during CPR.
In the COVID-19 era, manual chest compressions on patients in cardiac arrest can be dangerous for healthcare staff performing the procedure, according to a release.
“The closeness to patients during CPR increases the danger of aerosol spread of virus,” said Stephen Bowden, MD, director of emergency department operations at University Hospital and an assistant professor of emergency medicine at the University of South Alabama College of Medicine. “The ability to stand aside and not be directly exposed while performing chest compressions greatly reduces the chance of infection.”

“Our social life with friends and family is completely virtual,” said Errol Crook, the Abraham A. Mitchell Professor and chair of internal medicine at the University of South Alabama College of Medicine.
No kidding: Crook said that at one point in 2020 he had to make arrangements to isolate from the rest of his family, because he was seeing patients while his daughters had to return back home from graduate and undergraduate school. He and his wife also have struggled to maintain relationships with parents in skilled nursing facilities.
