I recently attended a First Aid Course at work and there were some changes to the CPR part to make it easier (advised your no longer required to do EAR as part of CPR) this goes against what I've been taught in every first aid course since I was a teenager, we were told then that there is no point pumping blood around the body if there is no oxygen in it, I asked the instructer about this and he said "they've done research" this didn't convince me, to me it seems to be about making it easier, not more effective. Thing that concerns me is not the treatment I would give to someone, but the treatment I would recieve. I'm still trying to find the research that this is based on.
My point being, I would like to see a video of a failure, chain, nothing, standard damper (If that video is one of the links above, I'll check it out at a later time but can't view from this computer). I agree that a normal damper would do nothing to slow down a towball, but wouldn't the towball just come free anyway?
I'm not against a new idea, especially when it comes to safety, just want to see the proof/basis for the change.
