CPR dummy
Chest compression target
A CPR dummy is a life-sized model of a human torso used to practice cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
The dummy has a realistic chest that compresses when pressed, allowing trainees to learn proper hand placement, rhythm, and force: We took turns doing chest compressions on the CPR dummy.
Also called a CPR manikin or resuscitation dummy.
