Read full description

CCF Challenge is a training and education game for learning CPR and ACLS (Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support) through tense, mission-style play. - Missions (BLS) Practice compression rate and depth, hand position, ventilation volume and timing, and AED operation. Track CCF (chest compression fraction - the share of time compressions are performed) in real time, with a performance report at the end. - ACLS Leader Mode (new) You are the team leader. Direct five role-based members - compressions, airway (BVM), drugs (IV/IO), defibrillation, and recording - and run the resuscitation along the AHA ACLS algorithm. Perform rhythm checks every two minutes, defibrillate VF/pVT, and give drugs until ROSC or the resuscitation is stopped. You are scored on both the correctness of your orders and your team's execution quality. - Build your team Earn teammates with high scores. Each member has five skills and a stamina attribute, so team building, role assignment, and rotation all matter. - Clinically correct by design The correct clinical action is always the winning move. Disclaimer: This app is for education and training only. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always follow your local guidelines and consult qualified healthcare professionals. Sources: American Heart Association (AHA) / European Resuscitation Council (ERC).
