The
Evolution of Mechanical

Resuscitation (CPR)

August 1969 - Model 1003
May 1972 - Model 1004
Known as the Life-Aid domestically, the 1003 evolved

The Model 1003 was also distributed both domestically and
abroad in both the
hospital and EMS settings. This model incorporated a

and CCV (CC w/Ventilation) versions of the 1007 were introduced.
September 2008 - Model 1008
The Life-Stat™ Model 1008 is electronically controlled.
In addition to all the other benefits gleaned from the previous models, the
electronics provide for multiple modes of operation. It also allows the
device to meet current and future AHA guidelines. It is the most capable
and lightest mechanical CPR device manufactured by Michigan Instruments
providing true hands-free mechanical CPR. In keeping with honoring its
loyal customer base, a Model 1007 can be upgraded to a Model 1008 at a fraction
of the cost.
Whatever you
call it ...
IT IS high quality mechanical CPR
based on decades of experience. |
