Matters needing attention when using the manual resuscitator/ambu bag
1. Manual resuscitator/ambu bag should be used only by persons who have received adequate training.
2. Never wait to begin mouth-to-mouth resuscitation if a bag valve mask (BVM) is not immediately available.
3. If used with supplemental oxygen, do not allow smoking or use unit near sparking equipment, open flame, oil or other flammable chemicals.
4. Should not use in toxic or hazardous atmospheres.
5. Neonatal, Paediatric and optional on Adult artificial resuscitation bag are equipped with a pressure-limiting device which opens at approximately 40±5 cmH2O. However, an abrupt, high-volume inspiratory delivery may cause the unit to exceed this level.
Warning: Never cap, plug, or tape over pop-off pressure relief valve.
