Learning CPR and using AED
With various measurements and tests, visitors bring their fitness into focus. They learn what physical exertion does to the heart and heart rate, and blood pressure is measured. The AED is also demonstrated and visitors are given the chance to perform CPR themselves with the assistance of argumented reality.
The Philips Museum is open Saturday, March 16 and Sunday, March 17, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is the regular cost of admission ticket. The event is educational and inspiring for both children and adults.
