Scientific studies convincingly show that letter perfect CPR, minimal breaks in compressions, full recoil, adequate depth, and adequate compression rate are all factors that can increase survival from cardiac arrest. HP-CPR teaches you how to incorporate these critical factors and helps guide you to a more successful resuscitation. This course will offer the initial tools and content needed to achieve high performance CPR (HP-CPR) on your next resuscitation and teach YOU how to incorporate this technique into your own EMS system!
