It is designed to assist in providing immediate life support (mouth to mask ventilation) to health emergency victims requiring oxygen support (inhalation) or cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) rescue techniques. The CPR Mask with Oxygen Port is intended for prescription use.
A flexible, form-shaped device that is placed over a patient's mouth to administer "mouth-to-mask" exhaled air from the user to the patient during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The device is designed to replace "mouth-to-mouth" resuscitation therefore reducing the risk of cross-contamination; it is also used on manikins by students during CPR training. The device typically consists of the mask with a mouthpiece and a non-rebreathing valve and/or bacteria filter. Also referred to as a pocket face mask, it is typically used by emergency medical services (EMS) or as part of first aid kits. This is a single-use device.
