Re: Typing in microgravity -- extra effort? How about CPR?

: how about doing CPR during an emergency in space?
: Apparently , they have already thought of that and have a
velcro-restraint
: system for just that purpose . The catch is the patient could be dead in
the
: five minutes it takes to get them into the harness .

Huh.  I would have thought a simple ball with two tethers would work
better.  Just put the ball over the chest, get behind the victim and
pull on the tethers.  Lacking that, just make sure there's at least
one passageway of appropriate diameter (or that can be shimmed
down to the appropriate diameter) to brace both parties.

Perhaps I'm merely misunderstanding the "pulmonary" part.
But that'd be forced air to the mouth, right?  So we're just
talking about the "cardio" part, right?
