Abstract: A split passageway resuscitation training device is described. Embodiments of the split passageway resuscitation training device can be implemented with a cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) mask, a CPR valve (with or without a mask), or a CPR resuscitation bag. The split passageway resuscitation training device can allow a simulated rescuer and a simulated victim to use a CPR mask. For instance, the split passageway resuscitation training device can allow the training rescuer to practice exhaling into the mask without the “live” victim having to inhale the rescuer's breaths. The split passageway resuscitation training device also allows the victim to breathe through a different passageway of the device while wearing the mask.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are disclosed for providing a foam-filled thermoplastic spine board. An upper surface of the spine board has a cradle configuration to assist in more comfortably positioning a patient. The spine board includes hand holds for transporting the patient. Being free from metallic parts, the spine board is X-ray translucent and/or radio translucent.

Abstract: An article of clothing comprising a diamond-shaped retroreflective material, which diamond-shaped retroreflective material encloses a first colored accent area and which diamond-shaped retroreflective material is enclosed, in whole or in part, by a second colored accent area is described.

Abstract: A stretchable necktie fabricated from an elongated outer tubular casing formed of a nylon-spandex material, and an elongated inner lining formed of a nylon-spandex material, positioned inside said casing and sewn around its entire perimeter to said casing. A washable, comfortable necktie is thereby formed entirely of stretchable material.
