A system is disclosed for providing feedback regarding chest compressions in CPR comprising a measuring unit, a processing unit and a display unit, where the measuring unit comprises a depth measuring device, a force measuring device, or both. The processing unit comprises a depth signal device and/or a force signal device and a threshold device. The processing unit is adapted to output a signal depending on the values of depth and/or force signals with respect to the thresholds. The display unit comprises at least one indicator and is adapted to activate the indicators based on the output from the processing device. The system thus measures and processes chest compressions and provides feedback to the user with respect to the characteristics of the compressions.
