    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.

    Demonstration of two-person bag valve mask technique Bag valve masks (BVM) provides positive pressure ventilation to patients that are not breathing or not breathing adequately to sustain oxygenation to the body. When used properly in conjunction with basic airway maneuvers and adjuncts it allows for adequate ventilation of the patient.

    A resuscitator is a device using positive pressure to inflate the lungs of an unconscious person who is not breathing, in order to keep them oxygenated and alive. [citation needed] There are three basic types: a manual version (also known as a bag valve mask) consisting of a mask and a large hand-squeezed plastic bulb using ambient air, or with supplemental oxygen from a high-pressure tank.

    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 ...

    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).
