Good to know, kkorn! I just googled it. My facility doesn't have one but maybe they will soon.

Specializes in Emergency/Cath Lab.

I have seen some of the most productive compressions from little 5 foot nothing girls climbing up on the bed and getting a good straight line shot down on the person. I like to do the same. Heck on the ground is the best because you can just get over them and drop straight down on top of the bigger people. Proper technique and alignment helps tremendously.
