CPR+
CPR+ is a mobile application and a website that promotes knowledge of CPR, offering tutorials, professional training, an awareness network, and real-time assistance.
Project duration
December 2022 - February 2023.
“Spreading information could be very useful. Maybe give trainings in the workplace.”
Problem statement: As a professional waiter, I want to learn how to apply CPR; so that I can be prepared if an emergency occurs in the workplace.
Competitive Audit
- Most apps offer video tutorials, but users need to download them after the app installation.
- Some content is not available; that could be because some apps are from other countries (Spain and French).
- Civil associations and healthy institutes are sponsoring these apps.
- Most apps don't offer facilities for people with disabilities, both temporary and permanent.
- Apps do not leverage mobile devices to speed up help in an emergency.
Findings
- Triggers. Some participants wanted to follow the flow by pressing the numbers on the timeline, an insight is that we must make the numbers act as buttons.
- Features. Some participants were asking about the functionality of the timer; an insight is that we must reconsider keeping it visible.
- Meanings. Some participants asked about technical words and terms; an insight is that we should offer accessible information about them.
Accessibility
- Language. Like most apps, this one is pre-configured to execute the OS language, but it also offers a language change button that is always accessible.
- Verbal Mode. Users can follow the flow without touching the screen, thanks to the implementation of voice assistant technologies.
- Text Mode. If required, there is also a text mode, which allows users to read the steps to follow on the screen. In addition, the videos have subtitles.
Impact
“Not many people know how important to know about CPR is. This app will help to create awareness and even encourage people to help in a real emergency”. Erika · A Professional
What I learned
Before anything, the research I did during this project taught me how easy it's to perform CPR and, above everything, that our quick participation can save lives.
Thanks to this product, I performed a great case study, but more importantly, I feel ready to help in a real emergency.
