We’re proud to now stock a range of high-quality, affordable, diverse CPR manikins from US manufacturer Prestan.
CPR Training saves lives in the UK every day. It’s not the preserve of ambulance crews, first responders or even designated work first aiders – the basic principles are accessible to everyone. And the more people who are equipped to perform chest compressions and rescue breaths, or use a defibrillator (AED), the more lives will be saved. It’s really that simple.
A range which ticks all the boxes
CPR training requires the right equipment, and Simulaids are excited to have found an excellent range of US-made manikins which fulfil the three main criteria our customers are looking for:
1. High Quality
CPR is heavy work and manikins need to be up to the mark for sustained, long-term use. Prestan CPR manikins are manufactured in the USA from the highest quality materials and all models come with a three year warranty.
2. Cost-effective
There are many CPR manikins on the market, but Prestan products offer one of the most affordable without compromising on design, quality or features.
3. Diverse
Using manikins with varied skin tones is important for inclusion – Prestan manikins come in ‘light’ and ‘dark’ models, with diversity packs when buying multiple models. But varied models are also essential for training, whether that’s with child or infant manikins, or female models with breasts – breaking down the barrier that can so often get in the way of correct administration of CPR in emergency situations.
Light, or Ultralite..?
Prestan manikins come in two main designs. The ‘Professional’ is a highly durable, lightweight manikin which comes already assembled and offers fast and simple setup.
The Ultralite model is ideal for an instructor ‘on-the go’, stackable and highly portable for easy assembly.
All models offer instant CPR feedback through Prestan’s revolutionary CPR Rate Monitor, which blinks if a student exceeds the recommended 100- 120 cpm compression rate.
In addition the Professional model is available with Advanced Feedback including Rate, Depth, Recoil, Ventilation, Hands-Off Time, and Chest Compression Fraction via a Bluetooth® enabled PRESTAN CPR Feedback App.
