Core offering

AdvancedCPR Solutions develops and sells the EleGARD™ Patient Positioning System, an FDA-cleared and CE-marked battery-powered cardiopulmonary board that performs controlled sequential elevation of a patient's head and thorax during CPR and airway management. The device is designed to integrate with mechanical CPR platforms (LUCAS 3, LUCAS 2, ARM XR) and impedance threshold devices (ResQPOD) to enable the ElevatedCPR / Head-Up CPR method, and is complemented by recurring consumables such as disposable covers, replacement neck foam, batteries, and carrying cases.

Product overview

AdvancedCPR Solutions offers a single unified medical device product, the EleGARD™ Patient Positioning System, complemented by a line of disposable accessories and the underlying ElevatedCPR® method/protocol. The core EleGARD system is the platform; the EleGARD Disposables (Disposable Cover, Replacement Neck Foam, Replacement Smart Battery, Battery Charger, and Replacement Carrying Case) are the consumable/accessory modules required to operate the device. The ElevatedCPR method is the clinical protocol that the EleGARD physically enables by elevating the patient's head and heart during CPR. Together, the EleGARD device, its disposable modules, and the ElevatedCPR method constitute the company's complete product offering for resuscitation care.

Brands

• EleGARD: EleGARD Patient Positioning System — an FDA-cleared and CE-marked cardiopulmonary board that elevates a patient's head and thorax during airway management, CPR, and patient transport. The company's primary commercial product.

Products and services

• EleGARD Patient Positioning System An FDA-cleared and CE-marked battery-powered cardiopulmonary board that performs controlled sequential elevation (CSE) of a patient's head (~25.3 cm) and thorax (~8.5 cm) during CPR and airway management. The device mechanically interfaces with the LUCAS 3 Chest Compression System (and LUCAS 2 via the LUCAS 3 backplate) and the ARM XR Automated Chest Compressor, and supports manual ACD CPR adjuncts such as the ResQPUMP, ResQPOD, and ResQCPR System. Indicated for adults (and children when not used with automated compression systems, not including infants/neonates), and sold to EMS agencies, fire departments, hospitals, and specialized first-responder organizations.

Quantifiable outcome

• 3-to-5-fold higher hospital discharge rate and 3-to-5-fold higher favorable brain function rate when HUP CPR is applied early (n=227, vs matched conventional CPR controls)
• +6 more outcomes

• Stryker (LUCAS Chest Compression System — LUCAS 3 Series)core technology integrationTechnology or IntegrationThe EleGARD is engineered to work with the LUCAS 3 Series Chest Compression System standard backplate, which is shipped with each EleGARD unit. The EleGARD has a built-in backplate holder and release knob for the LUCAS 3 backplate, enabling use of LUCAS 2 (with LUCAS 3 backplate), LUCAS 3, manual CPR, and ACD-CPR on the device. LUCAS® is a registered trademark of its owner.
• ZOLL (ARM XR Automated Chest Compressor)core technology integrationTechnology or IntegrationEleGARD is indicated for use with the ARM XR Automated Chest Compressor and accepts the ARM XR backplate. The device supports ACD CPR with a ResQPUMP and ResQPOD (ITD-16) per AdvancedCPR's published clinical protocols. ARM XR™ is a trademark of its owner.
• ZOLL (ResQPOD Impedance Threshold Device and ResQPUMP ACD-CPR device)core technology integrationTechnology or IntegrationThe ElevatedCPR method bundles the EleGARD with the ResQPOD ITD and a suction-cup based CPR device (ResQPUMP, LUCAS, or ARM XR). The EleGARD training materials and FAQs repeatedly reference ResQPOD and ResQPUMP as the recommended adjuncts in the bundle. ResQPOD® and ResQPUMP® are registered trademarks of ZOLL.
• Dr. Keith Lurie and the ElevatedCPR / HUP-CPR research investigatorscore clinical / scientific collaborationStrategic or Co-development PartnerDr. Keith Lurie, MD is the principal scientific founder of the ElevatedCPR method. The Science & Research page features lectures by Dr. Lurie ('Science and Technology of Neuroprotective CPR') and Dr. Paul Pepe ('Head-Up CPR for Non Shockable Arrest') and presents the peer-reviewed evidence base developed by the research group, which underpins the EleGARD product.

Direct peers

• Stryker (LUCAS Chest Compression System): Stryker's LUCAS 3 is the leading mechanical CPR platform in EMS and hospitals, and is the primary device EleGARD is engineered to physically host. Strongly comparable as a CPR/resuscitation capital equipment vendor selling to the same fire/EMS and hospital buyers.
• ZOLL Medical (ResQPOD, ResQPUMP, ARM XR): ZOLL sells the ResQPOD ITD, ResQPUMP ACD-CPR device, and ARM XR mechanical compressor — the circulatory adjuncts that the ElevatedCPR method bundles with EleGARD. Direct comparable as a resuscitation device OEM targeting the same HUP-CPR workflow.
• Michigan Instruments (Thumper Mechanical CPR): Long-established mechanical CPR device maker (Thumper). Comparable as a niche CPR capital equipment vendor competing for the same EMS and hospital resuscitation budgets.

Broad incumbents

• Laerdal Medical: Global resuscitation and CPR training leader (Resusci Anne, QCPR, AEDs). Comparable as a broad incumbent selling CPR and resuscitation products to the same clinical and EMS community, though primarily in training and AEDs rather than head-up positioning.
• Philips Healthcare (HeartStart): Sells HeartStart AEDs, cardiac monitoring, and resuscitation workflow tools to hospitals and EMS. Comparable as a broad incumbent in the cardiac arrest response chain, though without a head-up CPR positioning equivalent.
• Medtronic (defibrillation and resuscitation): Major medtech with a strong presence in cardiac diagnostics, defibrillation, and resuscitation-adjacent therapies. Comparable as a broad incumbent serving the same cardiology and hospital customer base.
• Defibtech: US-based AED and resuscitation device manufacturer. Comparable as a smaller broad incumbent selling cardiac arrest response equipment into the same EMS/fire and public-access markets.
• Ambu: Global medical device company with a meaningful resuscitation and airway management portfolio (resuscitators, laryngeal masks, single-use scopes). Comparable as a broad incumbent serving the same emergency care and hospital buyers.

Regional players

• Weinmann Emergency: German manufacturer of emergency medical devices including defibrillators and ventilation equipment. Comparable as a European resuscitation device vendor that could compete for OUS EleGARD placements.
• Mindray: Chinese medical device maker with a growing patient monitoring and defibrillation portfolio sold into Asia and emerging markets. Comparable as a regional resuscitation equipment player that competes for OUS and US hospital capital budgets.
