Disposable Bag Valve Mask
The LSP L770 series of disposable bag valve masks offers accurate dependable operation coupled with the ability to manually feel a patient’s respiratory response from a safe distance.
By separating the bag from the patient valve, the forces created by squeezing the bag are not transferred to the mask or ET tube. This helps to keep a tight seal when using a mask, and prevents dislodging the ET tube when bagging intubated patients.
The separation also allows the person bagging to walk alongside the patient during transport, ensuring more consistent delivery of tidal volumes to the patient and allowing the transporters to move quickly.
In an emergency vehicle, the caregiver can remain safely seated and strapped in during transit. Using a remote bag creates more space around the patient’s head, yet you can still see the chest rise and fall. The added tubing does not affect delivered tidal volume or oxygen concentration.
