Kiryas Yoel MonDroe's Hatzolah Ambulance Service Corp. Bought New CPR Device

Kiryas Yoel MonDroe – A new device laid out for demonstration yesterday inside the Kiryas Yoel ambulance garage has a profound purpose: saving people whose hearts have stopped beating.
This device, the first of its kind in the Hudson Valley since coming on the market last year, was created to improve a patient's chances of surviving cardiac arrest by doing with greater precision and consistency what emergency workers have always done with their hands.
The device delivers 70 percent to 80 percent of a patient's normal oxygen supply, vs. a 30 percent "profusion" rate with manual CPR,

Kiryas Yoel's ambulance service bought one for about $17,000 soon after learning about it. The ambulance service has had one on loan from the company for about a month while waiting for its own AutoPulse to be delivered.
