(Health-NewsWire.Net, May 05, 2015 ) Clearwater, Florida -- "It's that first instant when you find someone who needs CPR," says First Aid Shoppe COO, Anna Loehwing. "You know what you've got to do, but there's no escaping the follow-on thought about your own safety. You're going to save this person right now, but what about any infection or contamination you might get in the process? Things that won't affect you now, but could cause you trouble later. What if the person has a communicable disease? What if it's a bad one?"
Ms. Loehwing says these are the decisions a rescue breather needs to make on the spot when faced with someone who needs CPR. "Your own safety is a very real concern," she says. "Even though you're trying to save someone else who needs your help right now. This, is important." Ms. Loehwing says that protection for the rescue breather is critical when administering CPR. According to Ms. Loehwing traditional CPR masks can be large and sometimes unwieldy. They can also be problematic to store and have on hand. "When giving mouth-to-mouth there is a very risk of infection," she says. "Fortunately that's a risk can be handled through the use of a simple CPR mask. And we've designed one that folds up so small, and is so light, so easy to have on hand, we've made it almost a non-issue. Let's put it this way, our mini-CPR mask is small enough to fit on a key chain."
Ms. Loehwing reports that the Mini CPR Keychain Mask by First Aid Shoppe is a single-use fold-out shield with a built-in one-way breathing valve. It stores in a strong, easy-to-see, sturdy nylon pouch and can be attached to a key ring. Ms. Loehwing says the mask is transparent and has clear instructions printed directly on the front. She says each set comes with five (5) of the small masks. "With each order you get enough of these masks to place one in several key locations."
Ms. Loehwing encourages users to keep these handy in the event of an emergency. "You never know where trouble can strike. That's where our mini CPR mask comes in. Carry it with your keys, or to put one in your pocket or keep it in your purse. These masks prevent contact with the person you're trying to rescue."
Ms. Loehwing reports the Mini CPR Keychain Mask has been constructed based on the specifications of the American Red Cross. Mini CPR Key Chain Masks are available in packages of five (5) on Amazon, and each kit comes with a 100% money back guarantee.
