Mechanical CPR devices added to the Yukon Fire Department
Invested in two LUCAS mechanical CPR devices for the Yukon Fire Department. LUCAS devices deliver consistent, automated chest compressions to cardiac arrest patients — freeing firefighters and paramedics to focus on airway management, IV access, and other life-saving interventions during resuscitation. Unlike manual CPR, LUCAS maintains optimal compression depth and rate continuously without fatigue, significantly improving outcomes for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients.
What it means: 2 LUCAS mechanical CPR units — improving cardiac arrest survival outcomes for Yukon residents
