Amflow-device Can Help Proper Ambu-bag Ventilation

Ambu-bag ventilation is an essential skill to the patients who needed ventilatory support. However, the delivery of appropriate amount of tidal volume by ordinary manual bag ventilation may be difficult. In addition, it require adequate training to rescurer. We hypothesised that an Amflow assist ambu bag may be helpful to delivery accurate tidal volumes to the patients. Participants performed bag-valve ventilation to manikin by ordinary technique and Amflow assist technique in our simulation centre. We measured each ventilation rate and ventilation volume in simulated scenario and we compare those between two technique.
