Abstract: A floatable device having hollow tubular handles, a flat C.P.R. pad spaced laterally and medially of the handles to provide sufficient clearance between the hands of a user and a patient's body in contact with the pad during reciprocating movement of the device, separators on the handles to accommodate the fingers, laterally extending stops equidistant from the pad so that equal pressure may be applied by the user, stops contacting the patient's body to limit the depression of the pad into the victim's body, and a bulbous choke-relieving pressure pad generally opposite to the flat pad.The device may include an indicator to inform a user that a sufficient pressure is being applied by the C.P.R. pad against a patient's body.
