With the corpuls cpr, we have created a unique thorax compression device. Unique, because it is optimally suited for use in the heart catheter lab thanks to the radiotransparency of the boards. Unique, because it provides unrestricted access to the thorax while performing the reanimation thanks to its single-arm design. Unique, because the corpuls cpr is the only device on the market that is also approved for children from the age of 8.
System
Use in the hospital
The corpuls cpr enables the therapy in the hospital while the reanimation is still in progress:
- The boards consist of a radioluminescent material to prevent artefacts on the X-ray image
- The corpuls cpr grants free access to the patient's thorax at all times
USER-FRIENDLY OPERATION
The clearly structured colour display and the central soft keys support intuitive use:
- Reanimation modi in conformity with the currently valid ERC/AHA guidelines
- Adaptation of pressure depth and pressure frequency also possible while the therapy is in progress
Use in the emergency services
The corpuls cpr ensures fully automatic, fatigue-proof thorax compression:
- Fast and secure adjustment allows fast switching to thorax compression by machine
- After each respiration break or after 100 compressions (continuous mode), the corpuls cpr checks the stamp position after each therapy. If the thorax has collapsed due to the previous compressions, the corpuls cpr automatically compensates a possible height difference between the stamp and the thorax.
REUSABLE STAMPS
The stamps of the corpuls cpr can be easily disinfected and therefore used repeatedly. In addition, the stamps are available in two sizes.
Carrier BAG/BACKPACK
Always at hand: The custom-tailored PAX® bag. Besides the corpuls cpr arm, it also contains all accessories, such as the board, spare battery, stamp and mains adapter immediately ready for use.

Reanimation boards
Compressions without compromises
With the two joints and the extendible arm, the corpuls cpr can be adapted to the patient in just a few seconds and the pressure point can be optimally aligned. The optimum pressure point is maintained throughout the therapy. Pressure depth, frequency and mode can be varied at any time if required.
Three different radiotranslucent boards are available for application of the corpuls cpr:
RECBOARD
The radiotranslucent recboard was developed for pre-hospital treatment. With the specially developed attachment straps, it can be fixed onto any standard stretcher system. Thanks to the symmetrical shape, the recboard provides absolute flexibility when positioning the arm. The cpr arm can be placed across the shoulders or on the side of the patient.
Weight
2.2 kg
Dimensions
47 cm (H) × 47 cm (W) × 3.5 cm (D)
QUADBOARD
The quadboard was designed for in-hospital use. It is radiotranslucent, easy to disinfect and quickly placed beneath the patient with the handle.
Weight
1.7 kg
Dimensions
46 cm (H) × 46 cm (W) × 13 cm (D)
SCoOPBOARD
Specially designed for use with a scoop stretcher or vacuum mattress, the scoopboard is the lightest corpuls board for the preclinical sector. Just like the recboard and the quadboard, the scoopboard is made of a radiotranslucent carbon fibre compound material. The recboard has the same multifunctional securing straps as the scoopboard.
Weight
1.7 kg
Dimensions
45.8 cm (H) × 34.7 cm (W) × 8.5 cm (D)
Synchronised Therapy
Resuscitation can quickly become stressful. Thanks to the Bluetooth connection, the corpuls cpr is effectively the fourth module of the corpuls3T / corpuls3. The team is supported by the remote control of the corpuls cpr via the corpuls3T / corpuls3. Treatment can be safer and the hands-off time reduced thus increasing the patient's chance of survival.
- Shorter Hands-off time
- Perfect in tight spaces and during transport (land/air)
- Easier and faster operation
- Increased safety
- Data transmission to corpuls3T as well as corpuls.mission and corpuls.manager
- Can be used in aed- & manual modes
- From software version 4.0 (corpuls3) & software version 1.2 (corpuls cpr

We have developed the corpuls cpr especially for the use in the emergency service, in air rescue and in hospital. It provides unrestricted access to the thorax while performing the reanimation thanks to its single-arm design. Our compression device is also optimally suited for use in the heart catheter lab thanks to the radiotransparency of the boards. And it´s the only device on the market that is also approved for children from the age of 8. The synchronised therapy between the corpuls3/C3T and the corpuls cpr has the significant advantage that the no-flow time is kept very short – that´s perfect teamwork.Tutorials by corpuls | How to use corpuls cpr: Troubleshooting
