I wonder if reading this app allows a lay responder to act as a "certified" rescuer, thereby allowing him/her to rely on the good samaritan laws? If not, watch out for lawsuits since a user of this app would be "acting beyond the scope of his/her training" not being trained in anything?

This will be one to watch. I'm sure the attorneys are already salivating!!!

This is a great compliment to the full CPR Certification I took from www.emergencyuniversity.com

This app seems pretty handy to have on hand.

I work for a <a href="http://www.cascadehr.co.uk">HR software</a> company in the UK. We are interested in making this sort of software available to all our staff, and even available to our customers, as they frequently have staff on the move, so this would be really vital.

I?m really starting to wonder if people are in far getting dumber by the day. Can anyone knock some sense into the MAC users? I mean is someone really going to be like ? Hey that person looks like they are choking but best be sure, I will consult my Ipod app to tell me really if this person is choking.? If someone is to stupid to not be able to determine whether or not someone is choking with out the aid of an app, they better stay the hell away from me when I am choking. How hard is it to see that all the apps are A: cash grabs, B: encouraging people to be come completely dependent on there phones and C: letting Mac some how become cool again. We were so close to getting rid of that inferior product. DEATH TO APPLE
