The CPR Lifeshield mask from EMI should have a place in every first responder’s kit. The CPR mask makes emergency resuscitation more sanitary by preventing mouth-to-mouth contact, reducing the risk of disease transmission. The one-way valve and filter prevent bodily fluids from entering the rescuer’s mouth. The face-conforming mask is made from translucent vinyl, allowing for easy visual monitoring of patients. Each Lifeshield comes in an individual polybag, packaged tightly enough to fit into a pocket, trauma kit or holster and is fully-sealed to prevent contamination. Additionally, each poly contains a sheet of CPR instructions for reference. EMI’s Plus option includes a quick-release Velcro-fastened carrying holster, a pair of latex gloves and an antimicrobial hand wipe.
