Description: Produced for NASA by the Houston-based A-V Corporation, this 1970s industrial film explains how to give emergency resuscitation using an emergency kit and advanced telemetry. Telemetry is an automated communications process where health data is collected and transmitted to receiving units for monitoring. NASA originally developed the equipment to monitor the health of astronauts. Now outdated, this medical technology was highly innovative and groundbreaking at the time of introduction.
