Revised CPR and AED Materials Now Shipping

Updated EFR Materials

(two down, one to go)


Revised CPR/AED materials are now shipping! All related kits such as the EFR Instructor Manual and EFR Instructor Start-Up Kit have been updated as well.

So if you order a 60215 Instructor Pack or 70149 Instructor manual you will receive new Primary/Secondary materials, new CPR/AED materials, but the prior version of Care for Children.

We expect Care for Children will have new materials in February or March 2012. Revised EFR Instructor Trainer materials will be available shortly thereafter.

New CPR/AED Materials

CPR/AED manual and DVD - 60267
CPR/AED manual ala carte 70185
CPR/AED student exam 71865

What type of AED machines do emt's have?

Anonymous: EMT's use a variety of different AED's. Some are fully automatic, some semiautomatic. Some include advanced features, such as changing the electrical dose. It really depends on the EMS agency, their budget and what their medical director wants on the rigs.

EFR Instructors: when teaching, keep an eye out for out-dated materials. That's an opportunity for you.

For example, I was at a pool recently that had the pre-2005 CPR guidelines posted (15 compressions, 2 breaths). Since then, there have been two sets of guideline changes. The most recent (hence the EFR material changes) have greatly simplified CPR. I talked to the pool owner and we're discussing EFR classes in addition to them updating their posted emergency guidelines.
