| My name is Krishshain Nathan. I am a grade eight honors student. I go to King's Edge-hill School in Windsor, NS. I like to swim, play soccer, and ski. I volunteer at a nursing home every Monday and at a hospital on Saturdays. My hobbies are painting, sculpting and playing video games. My main interest in school is the science of the human body. I am planning to become a surgeon. In 2012 I got a first place ribbon at my school science fair and was qualified to go to the regional science fair for my project the "Musical Water Fountain". This year (2013) I got second place in my school science fair and I am going to nationals! My inspiration for my project the "Automatic CPR Device" came when my class took a CPR course. After I saw my classmates do mistakes and get tired after a few seconds, I created this device to perform better CPR with little human effort. Further improvements include adding a breathing apparatus to do the breathing. The best advice I could give to someone doing a project is never give up, anything is possible because science is endless. |

Automatic CPR Device
| Challenge: | Innovation | | Category: | Junior | | Region: | Annapolis Valley | | City: | Falmouth, NS | | School: | King's-Edgehill School | | Abstract: | My project is an invention: The Automatic CPR Device. This device will perform CPR on an unconscious victim, perfectly and with no labor! CPR saves 2 million lives each year; this device was made to increase that number. There are three main components: a timer circuit, a relay, an electric actuator (piston like device). These components work together to enable this device to save lives! |
