The problem

During a resuscitation,
a lot happens at once.

Time tracking during CPR is often done with a simple stopwatch, loose notes, or from memory. That takes attention — and increases the risk of errors or missed moments.

CPR Timer takes over all time management and provides calm, structure and overview during the incident.

Tracking time

Performing chest compressions

Ventilating

Rhythm checks at the right moment

Logging shocks

Communicating with colleagues

Handover to ambulance or hospital

Features

What CPR Timer
does for you.

Designed for the field. Minimal interaction, maximum support.

Smart CPR timer

Automatically tracks total resuscitation time and current set time. Visible at a glance:

How long the resuscitation has been running
When the next set starts
When a rhythm check is coming up

Shock registration

Log shocks with a single tap. The app keeps track of:

Total number of shocks delivered
Exact time each shock was given
Which set it occurred in

Automatic sets & cycles

Sets, rotation moments and progress are tracked automatically — no manual counting during the call.

Set count tracked
Rotation moments logged
Structure during long incidents

Voice alerts

Audio cues so you look at the screen less:

"At 1 minute" (halfway)
"15 seconds remaining"
"Rhythm check / rotate"

Background

Why CPR Timer
was built.

"I built this because I needed it myself during calls."
— Benjamin, active firefighter

The app grew out of real operational experience. No complex medical software, just a fast and intuitive tool that provides immediate support during an actual resuscitation. Continuously developed based on feedback from the field.

Built from real operational experience — not based on assumptions, but on what is actually needed in the field.

Continuously improving — new features and improvements are actively released based on feedback from users in the field.
