SimCPR®Pro provides rescuers accurate feedback for optimizing CPR during a cardiac arrest.
The wristband with smart SimCPR®-accelerometer accurately calculates compressions depth and tempo.
The green LED-light confirms that chest compressions are within the CPR-guidelines of depth (≥ 50mm/2inches) and tempo (100-120/min).
Studies show that this kind of feedback improves CPR-quality and is associated with better survival in case of a cardiac arrest.1,2
SimCPR®Pro also gives rescuers more confidence during a CPR-event.
A separate SimCPR® Pro Trainer is available for CPR-education.
In this way rescuers train on different CPR-manikins using SimCPR-feedback.
The use of the trainer exactly simulates the use of the SimCPR®Pro.
The SimCPR® Trainer can also be connected to the free SimCPR® Trainer-app (Android and iOS).
With this low-cost training solution more students can be trained in High-Quality-CPR.
At this moment SimCPR®Pro is only available in the Netherlands.

SimCPR has won the award for best startup in Drenthe 2022. The young company from Roden has developed a wristband for CPR, which is of great value during resuscitation. It increases the chances of survival…
SimCPR® Trainer is not a medical device and is used during CPR-courses. The functionality of the CPR-feedback is the same as with the Pro.
In this way students can easily practice the use of the SimCPR® Pro for real CPR.
SimCPR® Trainer can also be connected with the free available SimCPR® Trainer app.
Make sure you can see both LEDs clearly.
If you can not see the LED’s clearly, you can put the SimCPR® Pro also on the back of your hand, looking directly into the LEDs.
Make sure the band is well fixed so it can not move and follows the movements of the wrist or hand exactly.
As long as compression-decompression is less than 5 cm/2 inches, the red LED will continue flashing. This means compressions are not deep enough and/or the recoil of the victim’s chest is not complete.
As soon as compression-decompression of the chest is more than 5 cm/2 inches, the green LED will flash (110/min).
When both depth and tempo are within the guidelines the green LED is continously on.
As long as compression-decompression is less than 5 cm/2 inches, the red LED will continue flashing. This means compressions are not deep enough and/or the recoil of the victim’s chest is not complete.
As soon as compression-decompression of the chest is more than 5 cm/2 inches, the green LED will flash (110/min).
This form of feedback improves the quality of CPR, even by healthcare professionals (Resuscitation 2019).
When the first responder compresses the chest 5,5 cm (2,2 inches) and keeps leaning 1 cm (0,4 inches), the device measures 4,5 cm (1,8 inches) compression/decompression. In this case the red LED keeps on flashing.
Before the first responder starts pushing harder, he/she has to check if the chest is fully released at the end of decompression.
When the chest is fully released, the device will measure 2,2 inches and the green LED will start flashing.
When depth is OK, a solid green LED indicates that tempo is also correct (100-120/min).
After turning it off (pressing the ON/OFF-button for 2 seconds or more) the green or red LED will light up short. When the green LED lights up, the battery life is still sufficient. If the red LED lights up you have to exchange your SimCPR® Pro for a new one.
FDA approval is expected in Q4 2022.
SimCPR® Trainer can be sold worldwide.
