Annie… Annie… Are You OK?
6 Word Photo Story Summer Challenge
Continual CPR since 1960; still serene.
Training sessions echo to cries of “Annie… are you OK?” the initial step (establishing unresponsiveness) in the resuscitation process. The face of Resusci Annie, the medical training doll, was originally modelled on a teenaged girl who drowned in the River Seine in the late 19th century. The girl was never identified but the pathologist, taken with her serene expression, took a death mask of her face which was replicated and sold. In the 1950s, her face was used in the development of Resusci Annie.
