Questions about Ambu bag
July 02 , 2021
What is an “Ambu bag”?
An Ambu bag is a medical tool used to force air into the lungs of patients who:
are not breathing; or

are not breathing adequately so still need assistance


What does Ambu stand for?
The term “Ambu bag” comes from the acronym for “artificial manual breathing unit” and is used to refer to bag valve masks. The company that invented the Ambu bag was originally called Testa Laboratory and rebranded as Ambu in the 1980s.

Are there other names for the Ambu bag?

The descriptive medical term for an Ambu bag is manual resuscitator or self-inflating bag—most specifically, bag valve mask, or BVM. Ambu bag has become interchangeable with the generic term “bag valve mask,” like Kleenex is a common generic term for a tissue, or Band-Aid is for a small bandage.


How do you use an Ambu bag with oxygen?
Most Ambu bags have a connection port for an oxygen tube which delivers pure oxygen from a cylinder, where the amount of oxygen being supplied can be controlled.

Can you use an Ambu bag without (extra) oxygen?
Yes, an Ambu bag can be used without extra oxygen.
