Product Description

1. How Many Units Do You Actually Need?

The AHA-recommended manikin-to-student ratio for BLS training is 1:4 to 1:5 (Bhanji et al., 2015) — but few programs achieve this because of cost. The CPR100D's price point changes that calculation.

Unit Quantity Calculator

The math that matters: a 100-student program deploying 20 units at the 1:5 ratio achieves the recommended training density at **7,500–15,000 for Laerdal Little Anne at the same ratio, or $60,000+ for QCPR-class equipment.

The 1:4 vs 1:5 Decision

If your program trains fewer than 300 students per year, the 1:5 ratio with 6 units is the cost-optimal configuration; above 300 students, add units to maintain the ratio rather than extending session time.

2. Budget-Tier Configurations

Tier 1 — Starting Lab: $2,500–3,500

Serves: 30 students at 1:5 ratio.

Tier 2 — Standard Lab: $5,500–7,500

Serves: 60 students at 1:5, with one certification-grade assessment station.

Tier 3 — Regional Training Hub: $12,000+

Serves: 100 students at 1:5, multi-station OSCE capability.

3. The Decision Tree: 100A, 100D, or 480?

Do you need certification-grade assessment (pass/fail, reports)?
│
├─ YES → BIX-CPR480 ($471) — electronic feedback, assessment mode
│         (print reports → CPR490 upgrade)
│
└─ NO → Do you need full-body training (positioning, recovery,
         multi-rescuer, field deployment)?
         │
         ├─ YES → BIX-CPR100D ($150–250) ← THIS GUIDE
         │
         └─ NO → Is budget the absolute constraint?
                 │
                 ├─ YES → BIX-CPR100A ($176) — half body, tabletop
                 │
                 └─ NO → BIX-CPR100D still recommended:
                         full body for +$0–75 more

Recommended hybrid configuration: CPR100D units for mass practice + one CPR480 for assessment. This is the most common procurement pattern among training centers surveyed — practice density and certification capability at the lowest total cost.

4. Consumable Inventory Planning (Year 1)

Rule of thumb: budget 8–10% of the manikin purchase price per year for consumables. The CPR100D's ~10% ratio is consistent with industry norms (Issenberg et al., 2005); electronic simulators typically run 15–25% due to sensors and calibration.

5. Procurement Checklist

Before issuing the PO:

● Confirmed class size and target ratio (1:4 or 1:5)

● Decision made on assessment needs (100D vs adding CPR480)

● Consumable stock for 12 months ordered with units

● AED trainer budgeted if CPR + defib stations planned

● Storage location confirmed (units are floor-operable, no tables needed)

● MOQ confirmed (10 units standard; samples 1–2 available)

● Shipping cost quoted (air freight 7–10 days; sea for 30+ units)

● Spare parts kit included (lung bags, face masks, face skins)

● Instructor training plan in place (mechanical model = minimal onboarding)

● Email:chinoncpr@adaanatomy.com.

6. FAQ

Q1: Can I order fewer than the 10-unit MOQ? A: Yes — sample evaluation units (1–2) are available for institutional quality review before committing to the full order. Sample pricing applies.

Q2: What shipping costs should I budget for? A: A 10-unit order ships via air freight in 7–10 business days. Quote depends on destination and unit count. Sea freight is available for 30+ unit deployments (30–45 days). Email chinoncpr@adaanatomy.com. with your country for an exact quote.

Q3: Do I need to buy an AED trainer separately? A: The CPR100D is compatible with AED training electrodes but does not include an AED simulator. For combined CPR + defibrillation stations, budget a standalone AED trainer ($150–300).

Q4: What is the difference in price between 100D and 100A? A: CPR100A is 150–250 (full body, floor-operable). The full-body upgrade costs roughly $0–75 more and adds positioning, recovery position, and multi-rescuer training.

Q5: How long will the units last? A: The compression spring is rated for ~500,000 cycles (20+ years at typical usage). PVC skin: 5–7 years with proper care. Consumables (lung bags, masks) are the only recurring cost.

Q6: Can I bundle CPR100D units with a CPR480 assessment station? A: Yes — this is the recommended hybrid configuration. Email chinoncpr@adaanatomy.com. for a bundled quotation with combined shipping and consumable discount.
