Simulation of the Alyeska Method of High Performance CPR in a rescue toboggan As discussed in the NSP Fall 2016, Volume 34, Issue 1 of Ski Patrol magazine.
Alyeska Resort Ski Patrol was challenged by our medical director to see if we could effectively perform Hi Performance CPR in a Cascade Rescue Company rescue toboggan while in transit, complete with application of an AED. Over the last few years we have developed a system that is being called the Alyeska Method. The National Ski Patrol magazine has published our findings and comments from our medical director. In conjunction with the development of the method, and continuing training for our pro patrol, I put together this edit that we hope illustrates some of the techniques we have incorporated. Please share far and wide!
