The patient's head, shoulders and upper back lay upon the base unit, with the controls for the AutoPulse beside the patient's left ear. It can be augmented for cervical spinal support. The unit contains the control computer, the rechargeable battery, and the motors that operate the LifeBand. The LifeBand is an adjustable strap that covers the entire rib cage. When the patient (who must be disrobed) is strapped in and the start button is pressed, the LifeBand pulls tight around the chest and proceeds to rhythmically constrict the entire rib cage, compressing and pumping the heart at a rate of 80 beats per minute equivalent. The LifeBand can be placed over AED pads but must be taken off to use standard paddle defibrillators. The LifeBand is disposable, and designed to be used on a single pat
