Formika helped with design and mechanical development of two Corpatch® products, a trainer and a single use sensor unit providing live feedback when performing CPR during cardiac arrest. A main challenge was to integrate delicate electronics with various sensors into a very compact design which can withstand the high forces applied during CPR. After thorough prototyping and testing a solution was reached for both the single use product, and the trainer which needs to cope with a very high cycle count.

CorPatch® and the free app guides to check for life signs, call 1-1-2, and perform CPR using a unique feedback system.
