Physio-Control (Booth 340) is highlighting its LUCAS chest compression system, an external medical device that provides chest compressions during cardiopulmonary resuscitation.   

The effective chest compressions or safety of your personnel allows for continued intervention in the cath lab. The LUCAS chest compression system facilitates blood circulation to supply oxygen to vital organs.
• LUCAS helps sustain circulation while enabling simultaneous PCI and catheterization;
• Medical staff can perform cath lab procedures without sacrificing compressions; and
• LUCAS is also translucent except for the hood and the piston, allowing for the capture of most fluoroscopy projections without removing LUCAS.
