In an emergency, the lay rescuer can use it immediately as a life-saving measure without risk.

The special shape of the Cardio First Angel guarantees correct positioning on the patient's chest - so that the chest compressions work exactly where they are needed. The application is uncomplicated and explained with internationally understandable pictograms.

Ideal effort

The optimum pressure for the cardiac massage of 41 kg is signaled by a special spring with a loud click. This click can also be heard during the subsequent release of pressure. This gives the first aider a clock to achieve the necessary frequency of approx. 100 compressions.

In the event of a heart attack, all too often valuable minutes pass in which either no resuscitation attempts are made or these are carried out incorrectly until the emergency doctor finally arrives. This is exactly where the Cardio First Angel comes in. It enables even non-professionals to perform chest compressions quickly and efficiently.

Many first aiders are unable to find the right place to perform chest compressions without assistance. With the Cardio First Angel, however, the massage is automatically performed where it is most effective. This is ensured by a positioning aid. The device is placed in the middle of the chest and a drawing on the surface shows how the hand should be placed.

But how hard should you press? The Cardio First Angel provides security here too. If enough force is applied, the loud click of a special spring can be heard and felt. If you then let up, another click indicates that you now need to apply more pressure. The alternation of the two clicking sounds helps the lifesaver to find exactly the right rhythm. In this way, the Cardio First Angel can be used to bridge the time until the emergency doctor arrives.

If the Cardio First Angel were available anywhere within one to three minutes, numerous lives could be saved and patients protected from long-term damage. Measuring just 20 x 13 cm and weighing only 130 grams, the Cardio First Angel fits in almost any pocket and is immediately to hand in an emergency. It ensures the best possible care in the crucial first few minutes after a cardiac arrest. Purely mechanically, it ensures the necessary pressure, the most effective frequency and the correct positioning during a cardiac massage.
