How cardiacSTAR Works
cardiacSTAR™ is brought to you by the same team that designed Heart Class in the U.S., CardiacCrash in Canada and Lifesaver in the U.K.

Watch an interactive film that makes CPR feel real. As the story unfolds, feel your heart race as you’re put into the action to make quick decisions and learn lifesaving skills.
Track the Progress: See Real-Time Feedback
Harness the power of your phone. Place it in a POWER Station, and see the speed and depth of your compressions displayed on screen. That’s real practice for a real emergency.

Be An Early AdoptercardiacSTAR Takes CPR Training To The Next Level
If you want to challenge experienced learners to up their game and give new learners a fast, fun, affordable way to learn CPR, join us at cardiacSTAR™. Here’s what you can expect.
Experience the Real Impact of Cardiac Arrest
We Made A Movie.
Film has impact. The movie we made shows a real story, and makes you feel real emotions. It shows you exactly what a cardiac arrest is like. When we explored modern learning, we found out that interactive film can improve cardiac arrest recognition, emotional preparation and CPR skill retention even after six months.
Learn CPR the Fun Way with cardiacSTAR
We Made It a Competition
People love good-natured competition. So, we made the movie into a game. With the latest in education and cultural observation, we at cardiacSTAR™ built this game to teach CPR + AED skills for today’s learners. You use your phone to receive real-time feedback, and push your team to win. It’s so innovative, you’ll actually remember what you practiced.
Master Effective Compression, Maximize Power
WE MADE A BETTER MANIKIN.
We relied on science. From medical research, we developed the cardiacSTAR™ POWER Station. Studies show that it takes a lot of force to do effective CPR. Force that most medical manikins don’t require. So, we made the first CPR device where you practice using the same force required for a human chest.
Let’s Improve Survival Stats Together
We Made It For Everyone.
Cardiac arrest kills over 320,000 people every year in the United States. That’s one person every 90 seconds. We’re here to change that. The first step: Train more rescuers.
cardiacSTAR™ tackles real-life barriers, like how to use an AED with a woman victim instead of a man and what to do when stress influences decision making.
We don’t offer this training in just English either. cardiacSTAR proudly presents its full training experience in Spanish! ¡Entrenemos a más rescatistas para estar listos para responder!

The Science
Behind cardiacSTAR
The first 50 years of CPR training focused on crucial mechanical skills. We love that. But, here, we take it a step further.
At cardiacSTAR™, we have innovated the next and best CPR training. We’re the only CPR training that puts emotions into the equation. Our POWER Station is the only equipment that requires the same amount of strength as a real human chest requires during CPR. Our training is already seeing a 51% increase in those who can perform high quality CPR over six months, as compared to top competitors.
We build emotional preparedness. We improve realism. We enhance muscle memory. We practice to keep up the skills. We challenge our bodies and our minds. We all stay ready to respond.
