In Episode 2 of the LIFESAVING CHRONICLES Podcast, I had the pleasure of discussing CPR equipment for CPR businesses with Dan Costagna from Emergency Care Health and Safety. We delved into various types of mannequins, including Preston mannequins, Big Red mannequins, and Laerdal QCPR Annie mannequins. Dan shared his experiences and preferences for each type of mannequin, highlighting the importance of feedback systems and durability.

We also talked about AED trainers, such as WNL, Preston, and Red Cross trainers, discussing their features, prices, and durability. Additionally, we touched on the importance of bag valve masks and pocket masks for CPR training, emphasizing the need for proper personal protective equipment.

Furthermore, we explored the necessity of starting a CPR business with essential equipment like adult and infant mannequins, bag valve masks, and AED trainers. We also cautioned against using outdated mannequins like CTR prompts and Actar mannequins, stressing the importance of adhering to the guidelines set by organizations like the American Red Cross and the American Heart Association.

Overall, the episode provided valuable insights into selecting the right CPR equipment for a business, emphasizing the importance of quality, durability, and adherence to industry standards.
