Category: Prestan CPR Manikins

Prestan CPR manikins are durable and have features that instructors appreciate. Most of the manikins are manufactured right here in Ohio, USA. We love to post articles about Prestan because of how much we like their manikins.

It’s worth noting that Prestan’s Professional Series manikins with CPR feedback monitors are compliant with AHA and ARC requirements.

PRESTAN® Series 2000 CPR Manikin Features

Theresa Seiders posted on: March 15, 2021

Offers Measurable Results for CPR Instructors & Trainees

New PRESTAN Series 2000 Manikins are coming SOON!

PRESTAN Professional Adult Series 2000 CPR Manikins’ new features make it easier than ever to track and monitor your students’ progress. These advanced manikins provide measurable data features for CPR instructors and students themselves. Manikins are available for PREORDER from MCR Medical starting March 15th, 2021. Anticipated to be in-stock and available for shipping April 7th, 2021.

PRESTAN quality with new advanced features

You already appreciate PRESTAN Products’ high-quality features and durability. Now, you’ll be even more impressed with the PRESTAN Series 2000 Manikins’ advanced features. Utilized to train EMS, lifeguards, medical professionals, and others who use CPR skills in their daily work, new Advanced Feedback features within the PRESTAN CPR Feedback App provide measurable data for:

PRESTAN Series 2000 Manikin Single Pack

Rate 

Depth– now w/ audible “beep” instead of clicking sound 

Recoil

Ventilation

Hands-Off Timing

These detailed data reports will help you prepare your students for real-life CPR by utilizing high quality, real-time feedback to drive training. In addition, the Series 2000 Manikin offers a unique, dual-purpose training solution. As a result, instructors are given an option to train with either advanced or basic feedback.

The PRESTAN Series 2000 Manikin is available in single or 4-packs, medium or dark skin tone.

Feedback App helps track your students in real-time

The unique PRESTAN CPR Feedback App gives easy to interpret results and tracking of your students’ CPR practice in real-time and saves the results for reporting:

Recoil Needed Sample
Good Rate and Depth   Sample
Weak Hands-off Time Sample
App Final Result Sample

First, simply download the app on your Android or iOS device and pair with up to (6) PRESTAN Series 2000 Manikins at a time. Final results can be easily sent to the trainee or saved for reporting. Most importantly, PRESTAN Series 2000 Manikins provide comprehensive training for all CPR class levels. The easy-to-use CPR Feedback App lets you enable the advanced feedback features for professional students. Or, disable them for a more casual class, making your manikin investment stretch even further. 

New Face Shield/Lung Bag for Ventilation Feedback

The Face Shield/Lung Bag for Ventilation Feedback (PP-VALB-10, PP-VALB-50) combines the Face Shield and the Lung Bag into a single, t‐shaped airway for the manikin. Air enters through the Face‐Shield opening to inflate the Lung Bag, which provides the visible chest rise in response to administered CPR breaths.

The PRESTAN Professional Adult Series 2000 Manikin can be used without the ventilation lung bags. However, you will not receive feedback regarding ventilation from the app. 

PRESTAN Professional Adult Series 2000 Lung Bags 
Affordable options make the PRESTAN Series 2000 Manikin a GREAT investment
PRESTAN Series 2000 Upgrade Kit

In summary, while PRESTAN Series 2000 Manikins may cost a little more than the Professional Series, they’re still an affordable option for CPR instructors who need specific, measurable results. Furthermore, if you already own a 2018 or newer PRESTAN Professional or Jaw Thrust Manikin, MCR Medical offers the PRESTAN Series 2000 Add-On Kit which you can purchase to upgrade your current manikins. 

Add-On Kits are available in singles or 4-packs.

Manikins made by PRESTAN are the practical choice for those who are passionate about saving lives. PRESTAN’s ability to balance function and price is one of the many reasons why here at MCR Medical, we carry PRESTAN Manikins exclusively.

“Where are the feedback devices in the manikin?”

“Why do I not hear the ‘clicking’ sound while performing compressions?”

“Why are the red lights on my manikin’s CPR rate monitor blinking?”

Coronavirus (COVID-19) and Your Prestan Manikins

Rylee Tanner posted on: March 16, 2020

With everything going on, we want to address a question we have been receiving quite often.

HOW DO I CLEAN MY MANIKIN TO BE UP TO STANDARDS WITH COVID-19?

Prestan Products always recommends cleaning your CPR manikins thoroughly after each class. Along with cleaning the outside torso and face, you want to make sure you are opening the manikin and wiping the chest foam and skin to sanitize the inside as well. You can use a mixture of soap and water to clean the manikin effectively. If the area is extremely dirty, you can also use common household cleaners such as Formula 409, Windex, or Vim. Clorox or Lysol wipes can also be gently applied to clean them if needed.

MCR Medical Now Offers Batteries for CPR Manikins Without Them!

Theresa Seiders posted on: January 15, 2020

Shipping regulations mean a big change for Prestan CPR products, but MCR Medical has a solution

Batteries are no longer included in Prestan CPR Products sold in the U.S. and overseas! In a recent email to vendors, Prestan expressed regret for this decision but stated that international shipping regulations make the change necessary as of January 1,2020.

Prestan Manikins will no longer come with batteries! They’re as shocked as we are!

WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU

Hopefully, you already have your Prestan CPR products and all is well! But if you’re making a new purchase or plan to order soon, be aware that you’ll need to supply the batteries to get your CPR manikins and AED trainers class-ready. 

 

CPR Manikin Kit
More products? Stock up on more batteries!
(K404M Kit Shown)

This change affects all the products in the Prestan line up, including:

Professional Series Manikins with feedback- all models, 2 AA batteries per manikin

Ultralite Manikins with Feedback Piston installed – 2 AA batteries per unit

Ultralite Manikins Replacement/Upgrade Piston Feedback Unit – 2 AA batteries per unit

AED Trainers – 3 to 4 C batteries, depending on model

 

Keep in mind to multiply those numbers when purchasing kits with multiple manikins!

 

 

We’ve got your back

Luckily, MCR Medical has a stash of AA batteries and are beginning to offer them as an option for purchase as a set of 2 for $0.60! This will be available, as of now, for any type of manikin purchase. This means that if you purchase an adult, child, infant or manikin kit, you will have the option to purchase AA batteries.

Buy 2 AA batteries for $0.60 with the purchase of your manikin!

In order for the pop up box containing the offer to appear, please make sure you click on the item you would like to purchase so that it takes you to the product page (the page with the full description of the product). Once you are on the product page, you are able to add the item to the cart and a pop up box offering batteries will appear. Completing this step is the only way that you will have the option to purchase batteries with your manikin. If you are buying a kit, please keep in mind that each Prestan manikin requires 2 AA batteries each.

Please Note: At this time, MCR Medical will not be offering any C batteries for the Prestan AEDs. 

 

Prestan Products still industry-leading, top quality CPR products

While everyone regrets the lack of batteries and out-of-the-box readiness for their products, we at MCR continue to view Prestan manikins and AED trainers as the best choice for CPR training. Prestan’s high quality, realistic manikins and trainers offer the most authentic classroom experience at a very competitive price point. We believe in them so much, they’re the only manikins we’ll sell! So you can purchase your Prestan products with confidence – just don’t forget the batteries!

 

Got questions?

If you’ve got questions about ordering any of the Prestan Products we carry, a purchase you’ve made or are planning to make, or our UltraLite Manikin battery offer, feel free to visit us at mcrmedical.com. Our friendly and knowledgeable sales staff are happy to help in any way we can. We’ll get through this together!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Prestan Has a Product Update!

Rylee Tanner posted on: October 28, 2019

Now Presenting…

Prestan Adult Manikins with NOSE HOLES! The Prestan Professional Series manikins will now have life-like nose holes on the face skin. This feature was put into effect on October 3rd and will now be on all new Prestan Adult Manikins (PP-AM-100M-MS). If you for some reason need a replacement face skin, you will receive an updated version with the new nose holes. You can view the new product update in the picture below!

Product Update, Prestan
NEW Adult Manikin Nostrils

Please Note…

The new nose holes on the manikin’s face skin are for visual purposes only. This means that they are not fully functioning – air will not flow through the nose holes into the lung bags! They are meant to stimulate a realistic nose pinch and enhance the overall look of the manikin. Prestan is working hard to make their CPR Manikins as realistic as possible for their customer, and we are super excited about the updates they are making!
