AdvancedCPR Solutions® (ACS) -- formerly dba Minnesota Resuscitation Solutions -- is structured around development and availability of solutions to improve survival outcomes from sudden cardiac arrest the leading cause of death in the US and Europe of adults over 40 years of age, and the third largest cause of death overall (estimated at >470,000/yr. in the US). Anchored in the dtermination made by one of the firm's founders that tilting the head up during CPR could dramatically increase the success rate of the procedure, the firm makes a device - designated EleGARD, that elevates the head and upper body of a patient experiencing cardiac arrest.
