The primary objective of the CPR Coach was to monitor chest compressions and provide real-time feedback to ensure compliance with AHA guidelines regarding rate, depth, recoil, and interruptions.
What are the 4 components of high quality CPR?High-quality CPR performance metrics include:. Chest compression fraction >80%. Compression rate of 100-120/min.. Compression depth of at least 50 mm (2 inches) in adults and at least 1/3 the AP dimension of the chest in infants and children.. No excessive ventilation..

(2) Activate the emergency response system and obtain a AED.
