Life-saving Fact

Two recent graduates of Hamilton’s McMaster University who invented a live-saving glove have been recognized by Popular Science magazine. The glove they invented will be honoured as one of this years top 10 inventions and will be featured in June’s issue of Popular Science.
The glove is a one size fits all nylon glove filled with sensors which monitor compressions administered during C.P.R. The sensors register the frequency and depth of those compressions which are then shown on a display for the user to see.
After learning that most people forget C.P.R. training after six months, the students came up with the life-saving glove idea.
