The Hopcalite Self-Rescuer was invented in 1920. It was developed by the American engineer and inventor, Dr. John F. McCulloch, as a portable breathing apparatus designed for miners to use in case of emergencies, particularly in the event of smoke or toxic gas exposure. This device has played a crucial role in enhancing the safety of miners in hazardous environments.
It was invented by a German submariner in the 1940's and was intended to be used aboard submarines in the event of a fire producing a high content of CO, it was not introduced into coal mining in Britain until the 1960's and had it been introduced sooner would no doubt have saved lives. Hopcalite is the chemical constituent that turns CO into CO2 which can be respirated, the average self rescuer will last for approximately an hour, allowing egress from a potentially dangerous mining environment after a fire where a high concentration of CO is present.
The CSE self-rescuer is required to last for a minimum of 60 minutes. This duration is intended to provide sufficient time for an individual to escape from hazardous conditions, such as smoke or toxic gases, in an underground mining environment. The self-rescuer is designed to support the user's breathing during this critical escape period.

For an adult, 2-rescuer CPR compression to breath ratio is the same as 1-rescuer; 30 compressions to 2 breaths.
The rescuer at the head performs the rescue breathing and checks the pulse during compressions to confirm they are effective.
