Abstract
A method and apparatus for providing cardiopulmonary resuscitation, CPR, are disclosed. A manually operated air pump is positioned on the patient's chest. A mask is positioned on the patient's face. An air line connects the mask to the air pump. Vertically downward stokes are applied to the air pump. The downward strokes provide resuscitative chest compressions and charge an air holding tank. Periodically, the contents of the air holding tank are discharged through the air line and into the mask to provide resuscitative patient ventilations. In one embodiment, the compressions are provided in response to signals from a timing device and the ventilations are provided automatically.
