DUBLIN, Ohio, Aug. 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Bound Tree Medical and Tri-anim Health Services, both part of the Sarnova family of companies, will distribute the ROSC-U Miniature Chest Compressor through the companies' nationwide sales teams, via a partnership with Resuscitation International.

The ROSC-U is an automated, compact CPR device that delivers chest compressions at a consistent rate and depth ensuring uninterrupted high-quality CPR. The device can be used continuously to provide uninterrupted CPR from on-scene with the first responders through the continuum of care, including admission to the ED or Cath Lab for advanced cardiac care.

With each minute quality CPR is delayed, a sudden cardiac victim's chance of survival rapidly decreases. In less than 10 seconds, the ROSC-U can be secured directly to the chest by a wide belt called a Torso Restraint that wraps around the patient. The ROSC-U automatically performs consistent, uninterrupted manual CPR with 360° compressions for more effective chest compression and improved perfusion.

"While the ROSC-U is doing the CPR all by itself, the EMS workers or medical facility staff are freed up to focus on other life-saving activities to care for that patient," said Jeff Prestel, President & CEO of Sarnova. "And given the number of challenges of trying to perform manual CPR, the device can tirelessly deliver accurate chest compressions in just about any situation."
