In order to gather both qualitative and quantitative insights, supply-side and demand-side stakeholders were interviewed during the primary research process. CEOs, VPs of Product Development, heads of regulatory affairs, directors of emergency care business units, and commercial directors from makers of CPR devices, AEDs, medical simulation businesses, and emergency medical equipment OEMs were examples of supply-side sources. Emergency medicine doctors, critical care specialists, directors of cardiac catheterization laboratories, EMS medical directors, hospital procurement managers, emergency department nursing directors, coordinators of training centers, and administrators of first responder programs from hospitals, emergency medical services, fire departments, police departments, cardiac catheterization laboratories, organ transplant units, air medevac services, and CPR training facilities were among the demand-side sources. Primary research confirmed product pipeline timelines for next-generation automated CPR devices, validated market segmentation across product types (piston CPR devices, LBD, ACD+ITD, extracorporeal techniques), compressor types (automatic mechanical battery/pneumatic driven, manual CPR), applications (EMT rescue units, coronary & intensive care units, emergency departments, organ transplant facilities, air medevac units), and end users (hospitals & clinics, cardiac catheterization laboratories, reimbursement dynamics, and training program implementation.
