CAREvent® ALS - O-Two - AUTOMATIC HAND TRANSPORT RESSUSCITATOR

AUTOMATIC HAND-CARRIED RESUSCITATOR

The O-Two CAREvent® ALS portable device, automatic transport resuscitator, provides trained individuals with a safe and effective means of providing artificial ventilation during respiratory and/or cardiac arrest.

This pneumatically driven time / volume, the resuscitator has the additional feature of a manually operated automatic ventilation, override button (manual button).

A single slider control for simultaneous adjustment of ventilation frequency and volume, six current, automatic override and manual preset settings for a range of patients from 20 kg body weight to large adults.

An off position is provided so that they can be left attached to the gas supplier, with the connected supplier ready for immediate use. No power supply or batteries are required to operate the devices.

During mask ventilated CPR, the first breath is delivered automatically followed by a manually triggered breath. This inhibits the automatic cycling for 20 seconds, allowing the rescuer to provide the 30 chest compressions recommended by the current resuscitation guidelines. If the manual button is not depressed again the automatic cycling restarts at the selected rate and volume.

Each resuscitator comes equipped with a stretcher clip that allows the resuscitator to be attached to the stretcher rail or ambulance stretcher. The patient is protected against barotrauma due to over-inflation by the audible pressure relief system. This warns the operator of airway obstruction or airway restrictions. The excess volume delivered is discharged to atmosphere.

The O-Two CAREvent® ALS portable device, an automatic transport resuscitator, has the added advantage of synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (SIMV). This allows spontaneously breathing patients to require breathing through the resuscitator on 100% oxygen at the desired rate and volume. Your inspiratory efforts will automatically stop cycling.

Should the patient stop breathing or his volume fall below the preset threshold, the resuscitator will automatically restart at the selected rate and volume. Lightweight, portable, simple to use, and extremely durable, the O-Two CAREvent® Automatic ALS Resuscitator hand transport is designed specifically for the demands of the emergency resuscitation and rescue environment.
