Stryker Physio Control LUCAS 1
Description
The Stryker Physio-Control LUCAS 1 is a cutting-edge chest compression system designed for performing External Cardiac Compression on adult patients. By utilizing the LUCAS 1 System instead of manual chest compressions during CPR, higher-quality chest compressions can be achieved, leading to increased patient EtCO2 levels and circulation.
Portable and efficient, the Stryker Physio-Control Lucas 1 can be easily carried by emergency first responders in a backpack. The system comprises an upper part housing a pneumatic-driven piston rod for optimal compression and a backplate. Notably, the LUCAS 1 operates without the need for electricity, instead being powered by breathing oxygen or air from a wall outlet.
