The Airway Man is available in the following configurations:
Version I:
The Airway Man I (Instrument) models are equipped with an mechanical monitoring
instrument showing effectiveness of the resuscitation, including results achieved for
depth of external chest compression, incorrect hand positioning, ventilation volume
furthermore indications of stomach inflation.
