They deliver a more consistent applied force and rate of compression than manual CPR and are designed to relieve rescuers of the exhausting effort of sustained chest compressions and to free them to more effectively manage resuscitation activities. They are designed to artificially produce blood flow in a patient during cardiac arrest. They are pneumatically or electrically driven and apply mechanical compressions cyclically to the sternum or to a wider section of the thorax, causing the heart to eject blood. Automated Cardiac Resuscitators can be used in both the out-of-hospital and in-hospital settings.
