BIRMINGHAM, Ala., July 10 (UPI) –
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation soon could be taught using the Nintendo Wii video game console, students at the University of Alabama, Birmingham, said.
The American Heart Association has pledged $50,000 to fund the work by biomedical engineering students, the university said in a release Thursday.
Greg Walcott, an associate professor of biomedical engineering, devised the idea of a computer program that could be downloaded on home computers and synched with the wireless technology of the Wii remote to teach users proper resuscitation technique.
