2. Bag valve mask - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bag_valve_mask

   The BVM consists of a flexible air chamber (the "bag", roughly 30 cm in length), attached to a face mask via a shutter valve. When the face mask is properly applied and the "bag" is squeezed, the device forces air through into the patient's lungs; when the bag is released, it self-inflates from its other end, drawing in either ambient air or a ...

3. Basic airway management - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_airway_management

   Pocket Masks are used to provide rescue breaths similar to a bag valve mask, but the rescuer is using their own breath instead of a bag. The device consists of a mask attached to a one-way filter valve. The filter valve prevents bodily fluids such as blood vomit from entering the rescuer's mouth. The mask is secured to the face with both hands ...

   Note: ( In cases with an apneic patient the best results will be achieved using the Two person bag-valve-mask technique.) Proper training and considerable practice is required to correctly use the FROPVD devices. [3] The main components of flow-restricted, oxygen-powered ventilation devices include An inspiratory pressure safety release valve.

5. Respiratory arrest - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiratory_arrest

   The bag-valve-mask device has a self-inflating bag with a soft mask that rests on the face. When the bag is connected to an oxygen supply, the patient will receive 60 to 100% of inspired oxygen. The purpose of bag-valve-mask is to provide adequate temporary ventilation and allow the body to achieve airway control by itself. However, if the bag ...

6. Ventilator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventilator

   Ventilators may be computerized microprocessor-controlled machines, but patients can also be ventilated with a simple, hand-operated bag valve mask. Ventilators are chiefly used in intensive-care medicine, home care, and emergency medicine (as standalone units) and in anesthesiology (as a component of an anesthesia machine).

7. Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mouth-to-mouth_resuscitation

   The amount of oxygen available to the patient in mouth-to-mouth is around 16%. If this is done through a pocket mask with an oxygen flow, this increases to 40% oxygen. If either a bag valve mask or a mechanical ventilator is used with an oxygen supply, this rises to 99% oxygen. The greater the oxygen concentration, the more efficient the ...

9. Orinasal mask - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orinasal_mask

   Simple orinasal face mask for oxygen therapy at normal atmospheric pressure CPR pocket mask Bag valve mask. Part 1 is the flexible mask to seal over the patients face, part 2 has a filter and valve to prevent backflow into the bag itself (prevents patient deprivation and bag contamination) and part 3 is the soft bag element which is squeezed to expel air to the patient
