The<unk>  can be used both in and out of the hospital setting. The 2015 European Resuscitation Council Guidelines for Resuscitation does not recommend using mechanical chest compression on a routine basis, but are good alternative for situations where it may be difficult or to maintain continuous high-quality compressions, or when it may be too strenuous on the medic to do so. To place the<unk>  on the patient, the medic first places the back plate under the patient. This eliminates the "mattress effect" and ensures the<unk>  stays in place. Next, the medic attaches the upper part of the<unk>  by locking the support legs onto the sides of the back board. One everything is lined up correctly, the medic can place the suction cup over the patient's chest and turn it on. Finally, the medic will buckle the stabilization strap around the back of the patient's neck and secure their wrists to the<unk>  to make transport easier. The<unk>  can be set to different rates and compression modes depending on what the patient's situation requires.
