Official Title: Investigation of a Novel Turbine-driven Ventilator for Use in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

Brief Summary: The objective of this study is to determine whether healthcare professionals trained in CPR can deliver more effective ventilations during CPR using the Handivent, a novel turbine-driven ventilator as compared to bag-valve-mask ventilations, using a manikin model. The investigators believe the Handivent will deliver a more accurate respiratory rate and tidal volume, with lower intrathoracic pressure during CPR.
