We would like to introduce CPR Add-on Kit Remote (CPR Remote) for remote CPR training! CPR Remote helps instructors by delivering the video display and real-time CPR performance data of the students remotely located, to run CPR classes. CRP Remote provides a real-time remote feedback display where individual performance displays of the students, compression (rate, depth, recoil), breath amount, and hands-off time feedback are shown all together. Students can connect CPR Add-on Kit PRO or cprCUBE PRO with the student app (CPR add-on kit Student) to access the training session created by the instructor. All students can participate through a voice call and only the instructor can see the individual performance display of each student. * Use CPR Add-on Kit PRO or cprCUBE PRO to connect with the app for real-time performance feedback with a video call. * CPR Add-on Kit Remote is for the connection between the instructor and the students remotely located and when trying to connect the feedback devices locally, the instructor app (CPR add-on kit Instructor) should be used instead. * CPR Add-on Kit PRO is an instrumented directive feedback device (IDFD) compliant with the most recently updated guidelines published by AHA(American Heart Association) and Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada.
