    • provides feedback on performance of CPR
  • Controlled by wireless link from an instructor laptop which can run either pre-programmed scenarios or 'on the fly'
  • Physiological parameters displayed on a separate laptop which simulates a patient monitor
  • ECGs, X-rays or other media also displayed on the monitor laptop for the participants to view
