Abstract
Most cardiac arrests happen within the home and only 10% of these victims will survive. If a victim can receive CPR within the first 6 minutes of a cardiac event then their chances of survival increase to 45%.
LivisOra helps you prepare for this moment. Ora is a CPR training aid that assists anyone to master chest compressions and rescue breaths without attending a lesson. It has electronics that monitor the learner’s CPR performance and deforms to mimic the elasticity of a human chest. The accompanying App provides quality feedback on the learner’s CPR performance.
Ora is design for self-training within the home. There is no more worrying about scheduling and lesson costs. Everyone has heard of the saying “Practice makes perfect”. Training with Ora regularly is the most effective means of learning and retaining skills. Train with Ora to save lives.
