Robot paramedic carries out CPR in ambulance in UK first / Humans + Tech - #83

As humans, it seems we are putting too much trust in AI, and business leaders are disinterested in ensuring that the systems they use are ethical and responsible. When humans administer cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), they get fatigued relatively quickly, affecting the quality of CPR they can deliver. LUCAS 3 is a mechanical system that can administer high-quality CPR consistently without a break. South Central Ambulance Service, an NHS ambulance service in the UK for four counties, is the first to take LUCAS 3 onboard its vehicles [E&T Editorial staff, The Institution of Engineering and Technology]. The system uses wireless Bluetooth connectivity, allowing it to configure the compression rate, depth, and alerts specific to an organisation's resuscitation guidelines.
