Hi Vincent. I know squat about Medical devices but from what I see from diagrams etc. The FAST1 is placed very high on the chest. In fact it looks like that if you drop your own chin into your chest, that little notch in the chest is where it goes. Now couple this with my extensive knowledge of the show "Rescue 911" !!! It seems to me the hands are placed right at the lower/mid rib cage( I also have taken CPR courses) so I don't believe this would interfere at all. Some of you medic guru's out there got a theory???

Vincent: Your right. First the patient must be stableized. There's no use injecting IV if there hearts not pumping. I believe there is room to preform CPR. But if a patient goes into cardiac arrest then a qualified person wouldn't hesitate to remove it. You can check for yourself. Find where your ribs meet. You will find a hollow knotch. Place your longest finger in the knotch then place your index finger next to it. Then place the palm of your hand next to your index finger. That's where the hand is place for preforming CPR. I'm not a DR. but I do hold an industrial first aid ticket which requires me to know CPR. Off to work cheers
