Singapore-first
Most people freeze. Most CPR skills fade. Cardiac arrest does not wait for confidence. CPRAID brings CPRAIDR® — a dual-use CPR assistant for training and real emergencies — to facilities that refuse to leave survival to chance.
The problem
Outside hospital, survival still hinges on what bystanders do in the first minutes — before defibrillation and advanced care arrive.
Immediate CPR can double or triple the chance of survival after cardiac arrest.
Context only (not a CPRAIDR® efficacy claim). Sources: American Heart Association (AHA) CPR Facts & Stats; European Resuscitation Council (ERC) Guidelines 2021, Systems saving lives.
Only about four in ten out-of-hospital cardiac arrest victims in the US receive bystander CPR.

Every delay to starting CPR costs survival odds. Skills also decay within months without practice.
Public chain-of-survival messaging (e.g. HLR-rådet — HLR (Swedish for CPR) — / resuscitation councils). Not a product outcome claim.
The operational gap: an automated external defibrillator (AED) on the wall is essential — but defibrillation often arrives after precious minutes of compressions should already have started. Facilities need both: early high-quality CPR and early defibrillation.
The product
Manufactured in Sweden by VitalSigns Innovation AB. Designed for two moments that matter: frequent short training, and the emergency when every compression counts. Pronunciation: “CPR-aider.”
A medical-device CPR assistant that provides real-time feedback to help users perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation with higher technique quality.
Feedback on how deep each chest compression is.
Built-in metronome guidance to support guideline rate.
Feedback on releasing fully between compressions.
Cues for breaths as part of the CPR sequence.

Visibility and access beat locked cupboards. Position CPRAIDR® so staff can reach a device within about a one-minute round-trip walk throughout a facility — so CPR can start as soon as possible while someone retrieves the automated external defibrillator (AED) and calls emergency services.
Wall-mount package available for workplace visibility and quick grab. Source: VitalSigns product pages.
Chain of survival
CPRAIDR® is not a substitute for an AED. Guidelines emphasise early CPR and early defibrillation.
Analyses heart rhythm and delivers a shock if indicated. Critical when the rhythm is shockable — but devices are only useful if someone gets them to the patient in time.
Guides and gives feedback on manual chest compressions (depth, rate, release) plus ventilation cues — supporting high-quality CPR that buys time until defibrillation and advanced care.
For facilities
If your members, guests, or staff could collapse on site, readiness is an operations decision — not a once-a-year training slide.
High exertion, high footfall. Make CPR practice routine and emergency grab points obvious on the floor.
Dense public spaces and shift teams. Wall-ready devices support response while waiting for emergency medical services (EMS).
Large footprints need placement planning so help is never a long walk away.
Duty of care for employees and visitors. Pair automated external defibrillators (AEDs) with CPR readiness across floors.
Training venues and competitions — environments where cardiac events demand immediate action.
Standardise equipment and short refresh training across locations with Singapore-first support from CPRAID.
Visible mounts, known locations, ~1-minute access planning, maintenance-light battery-powered device.
Complements AED programmes; supports early CPR readiness without claiming clinical outcome guarantees.
Short recurrent practice between formal courses — knowledge that decays without repetition.
Credibility
We only repeat what is publicly stated — and we keep the manufacturer’s own caveats intact.
Swedish manufacturer based in Stockholm (Kräftriket 9A). Organisation number 559296-6989. Product: CPRAIDR® (CPR assistant).
Company states CPRAIDR® is CE-marked (Conformité Européenne) according to Medical Device Regulation (MDR) Class I and meets applicable EU medical device requirements.
Sources: vitalsigns.se footer & frequently asked questions (FAQ) (“Är CPRAIDR certifierad?”).
Stockholm University bachelor theses have studied the company’s sensor-based CPR aid (earlier referred to as “CPR Guide”; now branded CPRAIDR®), including work with laypeople and firefighters.
VitalSigns states these bachelor studies and surveys show improvements in CPR quality metrics and user confidence, but should not be interpreted as complete medical evidence. CPRAIDR® is intended as a training and support tool, not a medical treatment method. Clinical studies are planned.
