SAN DIEGO, Calif. – If COVID-19 cases spike this fall, hospitals want to make sure they have enough ventilators. But that's only one part of the equation. They'll also need more trained staff to help operate the complex machines. "When governors have been asking for tens of thousands of ventilators, that's great, but there's only a finite group of people that are skilled and trained and authorized to use those ventilators," said Jim Archetto, Vice President of Gaumard Scientific. The machines help patients breathe, pumping oxygen into their bodies. "But what's critically important is how you control that pressure. If you pump too much pressure into a patient, your lungs will explode," explains Archetto. The stakes couldn't be higher, so hospitals are now working on training more staff members to help operate the devices. That's where Gaumard comes into play; their lifelike robots simulate not only medical emergencies but also emotions. "We'd really rather have these nurses and docs practice on a simulator before they're working on a live patient in a critical care situation," said Archetto. Pediatric Hal is a 5-year-old patient simulator who can breathe, bleed, move, cry, and talk. "He can actually be plugged into a real ventilator, and that ventilator can take control of his breathing functions," said Archetto. Companies like Gaumard have seen a spike in demand for this specialized training. Archetto says they've received calls from medical schools, hospitals, and even manufacturing companies needing to test their new ventilators. With in-person training on hold, Gaumard is using Zoom to train professionals virtually on how to use their simulators. "I can provide whatever symptoms I'd like for him to mimic, for COVID, or anything for that matter," said Archetto. Lincoln Healthcare, located just outside of Philadelphia, had already developed a program using Hal to train their at-home nurses on how to operate ventilators. "We really wanted to make sure our nurses were armored with the best training, the best emergency preparedness that could arise in the home," said Autumn Lincoln, vice president and co-founder of Lincoln Healthcare. When the pandemic hit, they opened up the 2232

2018 has been a tumultuous year in Washington — we've seen unprecedented turnover in the White House, the passings of two political statesmen, and indictments of several Trump associates as part of special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation (which still continues full speed ahead).The holidays, however, are a time to be hopeful. As the second year of the Trump administration comes to a close, here are five moments from this year's political news that everyone can find something to smile about, no matter your political leaning.1. Michelle Obama and George W. Bush's friendshipSince President Barack Obama took office, protocol has placed these two next to each other during official events. Former first lady Michelle Obama and former President George W. Bush have been spotted hugging, joining hands and just seeming to enjoy one another's company over the years, but their friendship went on full display earlier this year at the late Sen. John McCain's funeral. The two shared a sweet moment (and social media virality) when Bush handed Obama a cough drop in their row of former presidents and first ladies. At his own father's funeral later in the year, Bush repeated the gesture, handing Obama another small item from his pocket when he greeted her.In an interview in November, Obama said that her friendship with 43 "reminds us that we can get there with the right leadership and with the right tone setting and with each of us giving one another the benefit of the doubt.""I'd love if we as a country could get back to the place where we didn't demonize people who disagreed with us," she added.2. Tammy Duckworth's baby on the Senate floorIn April, Illinois Sen. Tammy Duckworth gave birth to a baby girl, making her 1746

A man saved his neighbor's dog after its leash got caught in an elevator door on Monday, December 9, and their apartment security cameras captured the rescue.Johnny Mathis, 27, was coming home from work in Houston, Texas and had just parked his car in his apartment complex's underground garage. Mathis lives on the ground floor of his community so he took the elevator up to his floor. As soon as he got off, a woman and her dog were trying to get on."When she got on, I was looking at the dog, because it was a cute dog," Mathis told CNN. "I noticed the leash was kinda long but I didn't think it wasn't going to make it on the elevator or anything."In the 39-second clip Mathis 693

A former fraternity member and student at Truman State University in Missouri allegedly provided "step-by-step" directions to five people who died by suicide in 2016 and 2017, according to a lawsuit filed Wednesday against the university, the fraternity and the student.The member of the Alpha Kappa Lambda fraternity told people he considered himself a superhero nicknamed "peacemaker," parents of two of the deceased allege in the suit, which identifies the accused as Brandon Grossheim.Grossheim counseled people with "step-by-step directions" for using their own free will and to "deal with depression," according to a news release issued by lawyers for the parents of Alex Mullins, 21, and Joshua Thomas, 18.Grossheim gave no comment to CNN's repeated requests."Both the University and the Fraternity were aware that the Plaintiff victims were vulnerable and suffered from depression, yet they still allowed this suspicious fraternity brother to be alone and have unfettered access to the victims," the release states. "This tragedy was preventable."The lawsuit alleges negligence and wrongful death and seeks unspecified damages."It is our understanding that a lawsuit has been filed by the parents of Alex Mullens and Joshua Thomas, two members of the Xi Chapter of the Fraternity of Alpha Kappa Lambda, in connection with their deaths. Our sympathy continues for the families and friends of our lost Brothers of the Xi Chapter of Alpha Kappa Lambda," the fraternity said a statement."The death of these young men during the 2016-2017 school year greatly impacted the Xi Chapter and the surrounding community. Like Truman State University, The Fraternity of Alpha Kappa Lambda, Inc., the National Fraternity, strongly disagrees with the allegations in the lawsuit to the extent those allegations are directed against it and will vigorously defend the lawsuit. The Fraternity of Alpha Kappa Lambda does not comment on pending litigation and therefore, will not comment further.""We are aware that an attorney has announced the filing of litigation against the University pertaining to the deaths of two of our students. We strongly disagree with the allegations as stated in the lawsuit and will defend the suit vigorously," said Warren Wells, Truman State's general counsel. "As the litigation proceeds, it will become clear that the University is not responsible for the deaths of these students. We will not comment further on this pending litigation."The Kirksville, Missouri, Police Department did not immediately respond to CNN's inquiry about whether it investigated the suicides at the time or has since the lawsuit. 2642
