Approximately 10 agencies across the country have begun device-assisted techniques for positioning during CPR. Panelists representing urban, suburban, and semirural communities will discuss challenges and triumphs associated with their journey to deploying device-assisted HUP CPR. They will discuss and field questions regarding their experience with this science and technology, training and deployment processes, as well as lessons learned. Experts will present the latest information from the lab and continued advances in the science, including do’s and don’ts of head-up CPR. Live electronic polling will guide discussion, field questions, and encourage active participation.
