This emergency resuscitation device is designed for effective artificial respiration, allowing administration of either pure oxygen or room air to oxygen‑deprived patients. A built‑in valve enables lung inflation upon compression of the bag, followed by passive exhalation of CO₂ while the bag refills with fresh air. Compatible with standard endotracheal tubes or airtight masks, it is a reliable tool for critical situations.
Advantages
- Pop‑off valves vent when a preset pressure is reached, reducing the risk of over‑pressurising lung tissue
- Anaesthetic machines typically lack this safety feature
- Highly portable compared to machine‑based ventilation
- Available in 280 ml, 600 ml, 1000 ml, and 1650 ml sizes
