CPR Manikins: Frequently Asked Questions
CPR saves lives! According to the American Heart Association, 475,000 individuals lose their lives due to cardiac arrest each year. CPR – Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation – is an emergency lifesaving procedure performed when the heart stops beating. CPR training is essential for learning how to correctly respond to a cardiac arrest and how to correctly perform CPR. In CPR training, CPR manikins (dummies or replicas) are used to practice the lifesaving procedures of CPR on, including chest compressions and rescue breaths.
With a multitude of CPR manikins on the market, it may be tough for you to choose which CPR manikin is best for your training. With over 25 years of industry experience, WorldPoint is here to help!

What is a CPR Manikin?
CPR manikins – also known as CPR dummies or CPR mannequins – are used to demonstrate and practice CPR, helping to ensure the proper techniques are being used in CPR training. It is important to use a CPR manikin to learn the techniques for CPR, including hand placement, depth and rate of chest compressions, and techniques for rescue breathing. It is also important to utilize CPR manikins in all ages to learn the differences between CPR in infants, children, and adults.
These manikins can be purchased individually, in packs, or even in “family packs” that also include differently aged manikins. Although it is not required by all CPR courses, many CPR training manikins on the market today include feedback devices, to give the user and instructor real-time feedback on important CPR parameters, like compression rate and depth.
Other CPR manikin supplies include replacement face shield lung bags (also known as airways), CPR kneeling pads, and replacement CPR manikin parts. Other CPR training supplies include AED trainers, AED training pads, CPR pocket masks, and bag-valve mask (BVM) resuscitators.
How Much Are CPR Manikins?
If you are wondering how much CPR manikins cost, you have come to the right place! A CPR manikin usually costs between $38.50 and $2,489.00 depending on the model and features that you need. Lower end CPR manikins often do not have CPR feedback devices and are ideal for training community members or children in schools how to do Hands-Only CPR. Higher-end CPR manikins may have CPR feedback devices in addition to features such as a full body or an airway head, and may be ideal for nursing schools, EMS programs, or other more advanced CPR training courses.
