Hazard of self-inflating resuscitation bag.
Correspondence thing ?), for which you condemn prophylactic antibiotics. Our experience of 22 cases of gas gangrene suggests that this condition was unexpected and arose from a variety of orthopaedic operations-only four had had amputations. We find it difficult to understand how you can avoid the mention of hyperbaric oxygen in the management of this dreadful condition. An earlier leading arti...
متن کاملSudden severe barotrauma from self-inflating bag-valve devices.
Self-inflating bag-valve devices are commonly used for the ventilation of intubated patients, especially during resuscitation and transport. These devices are generally safe, but minor deviations in their recommended use can expose patients to airway pressures greater than 135 cm H2O. We present a patient in whom a sudden tension pneumothorax developed during ventilation with a bag-valve device...
متن کاملEvaluation of peak inspiratory pressure and respiratory rate during ventilation of an infant lung model with a self-inflating bag.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the peak inspiratory pressure and ventilation rate achieved by physicians when using a neonatal self-inflating bag on a lung model. METHODS Fifteen physicians ventilated full term and preterm infant lung simulators while the outcomes were captured by a ventilation monitor. RESULTS Median peak pressures in cmH(2)O for full term and preterm lungs were 23 (interquartile r...
متن کاملSelf-inflating bag or Mapleson C breathing system for emergency pre-oxygenation?
BACKGROUND A crossover study was performed in healthy volunteers to compare the efficacy of a self-inflating bag with the Mapleson C breathing system for pre-oxygenation. METHOD 20 subjects breathed 100% oxygen for 3 min using each device, with a 30 min washout period. The end tidal oxygen concentration and subjective ease of breathing were compared. RESULTS There was a statistically signif...
متن کاملPeak pressure and tidal volume are affected by how the neonatal self-inflating bag is handled.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate how different ways of handling the neonatal self-inflating bag influences peak pressure and tidal volume. METHODS This is an experimental study involving 141 different professionals (physicians, resident physicians, physiotherapists, nurses and nursing technicians), who ventilated an artificial lung, adjusted to simulate the lung of a term neonate, using a self-inflating...
