Created to help train users to deliver life-saving manual ventilation in compliance with current Resuscitation Guidelines while minimising the risks associated with hyperventilation.

Airway management: a critical part of CPR

• On average, 35 to 85% of the air leaks out before reaching the patient’s lungs. 
• 30% of patients regurgitate gastric contents when the jaw-thrust manoeuvre is not used correctly. 
• The most common complication is failure to intubate. After two failed intubation attempts the patient is more likely to suffer serious complications and die.

Avoiding hyperventilation

Hyperventilation is feared by most carers when performing CPR as it can cause:

• Lung damage and barotrauma.
• Lung infections and pneumonia.
• Reduced blood flow to the heart and brain.

Hyperventilation can affect the chance of survival by around 70% with International studies having reported that hyperventilation occurs in 80% of CPR procedures. 

The EOlifeX^® Training Solution

EOlife X^® uses algorithms based on ERC and AHA guidelines to help deliver the appropriate oxygen volume and follow the correct ventilation frequencies for every type of adult patient.

The visual feedback increases the quality of manual ventilation by 70% and reduces the risk of hyperventilation tenfold.

EOlife X^® gives feedback on leaks and its bar graph displays the volumes inhaled and exhaled in real time, teaching you how to :

• Position and seal the mask more effectively.
• Use the jaw-thrust manoeuvre correctly to avoid insufflation of air into the stomach.
• Intubate successfully.
